Roe v. wade is considered explicitly overruled, as well as considered wrongly decided in the first place, as of 2022 (Dobbs).

They also explicitly stated a constitutional right to privacy does not exist, and pointed out that Casey abandoned any such reliance on this sort of claim.

Griswold also found a right to marital privacy. Not general privacy.

Griswold is also barely considered good law anymore, though i admit it has not been explicitly overruled - it is definitely on the chopping block, as more than just Thomas has said.

In any case, more importantly, none of them have found any interesting right to privacy of the kind we are talking about here, but instead more specific rights to privacy in certain contexts. Griswold found a right to marital privacy in "the penumbra of the bill of rights". Lawrence found a right to privacy in your sexual activity.

In dobbs, they explicitly further denied a right to general privacy, and argued previous decisions conflated these: " As to precedent, citing a broad array of cases, the Court found support for a constitutional “right of personal privacy.” Id., at 152. But Roe conflated the right to shield information from disclosure and the right to make and implement important personal decisions without governmental interference."

You are talking about the former, which none of these cases were about. They are all about the latter.

So this is very far afield from a general right to privacy of the kind we are talking about, and more importantly, one that would cover anything like OpenAI chats.

So basically, you have a ~200 year period where it was not considered a right, and then a 50 year period where specific forms of privacy were considered a right, and now we are just about back to the former.

The kind of privacy we are talking about here ("the right to shield information from disclosure") has always been subject to a balancing of interests made by legislatures, rather than a constitutional right upon which they may not infringe. Example abound - you actually don't have to look any further than court filings themselves, and when you are allowed to proceed anonymously or redact/file things under seal. The right to public access is considered much stronger than your right to not want the public to know embarassing or highly private things about your life. There are very few exceptions (minors, etc).

Again, i don't claim any of this is how it is should be. But it's definitely how it is.

Ideally any ISP resorting to CGN would be providing IPv6 support, but Tailscale shows that nat hole-punching can work well [1]. I'm not sure if that's feasible to implement in a web browser though.

> Until we get superhuman autonomous coding agents the human in the loop grokking the generated code is still the limiting factor.

They never get tired, work for pennies, can search the internet and your code base, follow rules, and iterate on test cases. This is better than I can do, so by my reference point as a human, the coding agents are superhuman already.

Hey HN!

I made an MCP server for analyzing performance traces (locally or hosted on https://flamedeck.com). It works best with models that have strong image understanding - o3 + o4 mini have been my go-tos. Would love any feedback you have!

It seems sort of odd to have an “export to markdown” command. Markdown is nice… because it is sort of like a normal markup language, but easier to write, right? But exporting is specifically the one case where markdown’s strength doesn’t matter. The computer can type, like, real fast and can output verbose and niche syntax easily.

Why not export to the best format, LaTeX? I don’t think anyone could argue that Markdown is better than LaTeX as long as you don’t actually have to write it.

First thing to say is I distinguish Trump's personal goals from those of the people in his administration. I propose Trump's primary strategy/goal in the trade conversation is simple: create massive stock market volatility on a known schedule. It's super simple, it creates billions of dollars in value for allies and insiders, and it's dirt cheap to implement - just sort of talk a little to a news network, and voila, bob's your new billionaire uncle.

Internal admin policy wonk (Or Project 2025 insiders?) type strategy there seems to be to reset and expand the tools the State department has to work with -- it's been a long time since the US could credibly threaten war, for instance. That just doesn't sit right with some hawks.

Canadians took semi-seriously 51st state talks, enough that there are boycotts of American goods in Canada. Denmark took fairly seriously Greenland. Both of these took all of a day or two of talking to the media to get done, and in Canada at least will be grist for the mill in trade deals - having a crazy like a fox type throwing around random threats gives State some leeway.

Note that I'm not in any way condoning this strategy or saying it's perfectly (or well) executed, a good idea, or even that some or many people at the State Department like this strategy. But if you can get over blind rage on policy differences, a convicted rapist president, accepting gifts well in excess of the mandated $25 maximum, and on and on, and look at what they're saying and doing, I do think there's some coherence and execution in there.

Read those leaked signal chats -- that group is on the same page: They think the US is overpaying allies / getting a raw deal, and they want to set a clear message that they intend to change that. I think they got the message across.

Having read about Japanese marriages, I assume that women are often thinking something like like: "There's no way I'm going to have the kind of marriage that involves changing my name. Another kind of marriage maybe BUT NOT THAT KIND."

If my assumption is wrong and they're instead thinking "I'd quite like that kind of marriage in general, but I'm not going to change my name", then there's an easy fix, as you suggest.

Right, the dialogue between the user and the LLM closely resembles documents used in training the LLM. People argue with, lie to, and misunderstand others on the internet. Here's a totally plausible hypothetical forum discussion:

Person A: I believe X.

Person B: Do you have a source for that?

A: Yes, it was shown by blah blah in the paper yada yada.

B: I don't think that study exists. Share a link?

A: [posts a URL]

B: That's not a real paper. The URL doesn't even work!

A: Works on my machine.

---

I've seen those kind of chats so many times online. Know what I haven't seen very often? When person A says "You're right, I made up that article. Let me look again for a real one, and I might change my opinion depending on what it says."

I don't really see this as a productive perspective.

AS the paper says, there is no overt sexism and misogyny. Computer science lacks social appreciation in general. All you need to do to experience this is be a male software developer in Germany. Germany is a horrible country to be a software developer in. The silicon valley types and maybe the new yorkers have a strong prestigious tech culture, but go away from these tech hubs and you will encounter that software development is pretty much low status work. The envy comes from cherry picking the most successful men working in the most successful locations. A lot of men get into software because they play a lot of video games and want to make their own video games. They don't get paid very much, because they trade passion for less money. These days men get harassed for playing video games. They get harassed for their primary motivation to sit in front of the computer.

The paper also goes into the fact that men are pressured to perform and be successful. They don't have the luxury to sit things out because things are biased against them. If there is bias, then they are expected to overcome it through their own strength and to not rely on others. Take parts like this

"Singly, these behaviors probably have little effect. But when they occur again and again, they give a powerful message to women: they are not as worthwhile as men nor are they expected to participate fully in class, in college, or in life at large"

This seems incredibly outdated. These days things are swinging the exact opposite. Men are not considered as worthwhile as women, nor are they attending college and life at large as much as women, but here is the thing. Men are supposed to figure it out and face adversity themselves, whereas women often simply ask for help and support and they can often count on it. This means the pressure to perform simply isn't as high. Calling this "a bias" is essentially the same as begging for handcuffs and forced labor. The rat race must develop to a higher level.

> There is a area, with tribes, in small medieval villages divided into patriarchal famuly clans governed by warlords.

Germany used to be the same until 1871, a loose federation of fiefdoms that regularly went to war amongst each other. Fun fact, the tariff region structure [1] very much resembles a map from what was "Germany" before then [2].

It's not impossible to turn a bunch of small fiefdoms into one powerful entity. All you need is a compelling story and, as I wrote in this thread, some sort of economic incentive/perspective that actually shows to the population that the new government is actually better for their individual lives than what was before.

> The negative effects of relying to heavily on AI while coding are greatly discussed, hence I am wondering what a „good“ use case would be.

Really depends on your perspective. For some executives, a "good" use case may be the equivalent of burning goodwill to generate cash: push devs to use AI extensively on everything, realize a short term productivity bump while their skills atrophy (by haven't atrophied yet), then let the next guy deal with the problem of devs that have fully realized the "negative effects of relying to heavily on AI."

> I think if you're against these cuts you also have to be open to ...

Philosophically, that assertion can be made.

Real-world, there are vastly more humans who are against these cuts for mundane reasons than there are devout philosophers.

And our current scientific research establishment is a bloated & self-serving bureaucracy. Which demands https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benefit_of_clergy while treating its actual production workers like crap.

And, given human nature, reforming a crappy "X-ology Research Establishment" is far more difficult that deciding on the in-theory relative merits of researching X-ology vs. Y-ology vs. Z-ology.

I think you could adjust your mindset on this issue.

AI is a tool.

If you already have the fundamentals neccessary to call yourself a software developer, ie. architecture, algorithms, language coding standards and style guides, UX, maintainability, robustness, correctness etc. then AI is just accelerating that for you, not exempting you from it.

If you need to scratch a learning itch then that's something else, and AI can help there too. Just ask it.

I also think if your product idea is so sensitive to a launch timeline that precludes manual coding not to fail, then you have a bigger problem.

That sounds impossible to do well enough without being accused of tampering with evidence.

Just erasing the userid isn’t enough to actually anonymize the data, and if you scrubbed location data and entities out of the logs you might have violated the court order.

Though it might be in our best interests as a society we should probably be honest about the risks of this tradeoff; anonymization isn’t some magic wand.

Those numbers might be true, but talking about standard deviations seems difficult to visualize or reason about, because knowing the width of the distribution is required, and because the width of the distribution of one sex doesn’t reflect on the other sex, so the standard deviation framing is potentially misleading. Almost all sources talk about the ratio of mean strength of males vs females, and depending on the study and the specific exercise in question, the conclusion is typically somewhere in the neighborhood of 2/3, plus or minus 10%-15%. Saying women have 65% of men’s strength sounds very different and sends a different impression from saying average man is stronger than 99% of women, even though both statements can be true at the same time.

Importantly, those stats you brought up are limited to upper body. When it comes to lower body, the ratio of female strength to male is more like 80% and your stddev number is smaller, so at the very least your conclusion should preserve that qualifier: average man’s grip or upper body strength is higher than 99% of women’s grip or upper body strength. It’s not quite true to generalize to an across-the board statement that avg man is stronger than 99% of women. It appears most studies widely agree the discrepancy is due primarily and simply to body weight / muscle mass; this is all mostly a simple byproduct of women being smaller than men on average.

Googling I see some results on grip strength (GS) saying mean male GS is higher than 97% of females. The graph/study in this article happens to have an even smaller ratio than what you mentioned with male GS at higher than 99.9% of females. But look at the rather large overlap of the distributions (first image). Saying the average male is strong than either 97% or 99% or 99.9% of women one might not realize that each distribution overlaps with something like 30% of the area. (@bqmjjx0kac is correct - the distributions do overlap) https://briefedbydata.substack.com/p/female-vs-male-grip-str...

Because, 18 months from now, you or your executrix wakes up with a hangover, and your Internet connection is down, and you or your executrix begin troubleshooting, and poking through the DNS configuration, your executrix scratches her head and exclaims “who in the world is 2a13:1001::86:54:11:100 and why did we ever add this in here?!”

And then you or your executrix reset it to 8.8.8.8 because that is distinctly memorable and unmistakable.

There's no amount of border security that is enough for the xenophobic right. As long as they see brown people in our communities there's reason enough to claim there's open borders any time a democrat is in power. Regardless of the fact that the US Mexico border is one of the most militarized borders in the world regardless of if Obama, Joe Biden or Trump is in office.

Interesting. It seems obvious to me.

I’ve asked ChatGPT medical things that are private but not incriminating or anything, because I trust ChatGPT’s profit motive to just not care about my individual issues. But I would be pretty irritated if the government stepped in and mandated they make my searches public and linkable to me.

Are you perhaps taking an absolutist view where anything less than perfect attention to all privacy is the same as making all logs of everyone public?

The broader issue here seems to be that C.Y. isn’t a random online person venting, in that allegedly the VP endorses his stances [citation needed]. If he was a random kook with a blog nobody knew, we would pay no attention to it.

But actively suppressing dissident speech is indeed the slippery slope, and he may get more endorsements as a result. Plus, it just looks bad to silence opposition because it makes the anti-fascists look like fascists. This has been addressed in one of the other comments.

Therefore the way you handle these types of situations may count for a lot. Or it may count for nothing and the response is overblown. Seemingly, it’s worth something given the amount of attention he is getting. Choose wisely.

Edit: I should point out that the same dismissal and suppression has led to 2 terms of Trump. So maybe there is a lesson to be learned rather than closing eyes and putting hands on ears like what this thread has exhibited.

You should relax a bit. Model 3 ride was a bit 'sporty' compared to others. Some people like that, other prefer it softer. There really isn't a clear 'right' and 'wrong' here. But on avg. people seem to prefer it a bit softer, so they adjusted it slightly.

Successive version always do slight changes like that over time, that how car companies work. Old owners don't need to be happy about it, or think about it at all.

Pretty simple. You can find lots of examples of getting each sensor working by googling "site:github.com ESP32 SCD41" etc.

There are libraries which make it extra-easy:

SCD41: SparkFun_SCD4x_Arduino_Library.h

SGP41: SensirionI2CSgp41.h

LPS22: Adafruit_LPS2X.h

Take a look through the past HN discussions of this and similar air quality monitors. Can also search HN for chip names themselves (like 'SCD41'). Many people note that the sensors drift over time, and buying "calibration bottles" of low-concentration CO2 is a slight hurdle for many - they're not that crazy expensive, but they're expensive enough to be a bit of a block for some.
