When the snow hill tunnel re-opened in 1988, and trains started from Farringdon to Blackfriars, they were operated by class 319s, which were dual voltage from the very start. While I'm sure some diesel engineering trains have been through the tunnels, and perhaps some diesel goods trains in the 60s before the closure, I'm not aware of any diesel passenger trains through them (as there were no passenger trains since 1916)

Some 319s are being converted to partial diesel and becoming class 769s, but not on this route.
Nobody said all men will get side effects and nobody’s questioning your virility.

The problem is people implying that you may lose sex drive or the ability to get an erection for an indefinite period of time, essentially out of the blue. Hence why I asked if the ED and sex drive problems persist if one immediately stops the drug when the effects are first experienced.

>Blame Fox News for the necessity and utility of Jon Stewart at the moment the 2003 Iraq war transistioned from suspicion to fact.

This is ridiculous. I was a news junkie around that time, and pretty much all the TV news outlets in the US were uncritical of the war, and dissenting voices were barely given any air time. Jon Stewart would have been as relevant had Fox News not existed at the time.

I'll probably get in trouble for mentioning it, as people seem to have strong opinions on the matter, but the Peter Arnett episode, in my mind, highlights how unwilling any major news outlet was in seriously questioning the war:

Do you believe in true altruism? If so, how do you think it arose in the human population?

Evolution and natural selection suggests that even if you think your desires are purely altruistic, at some deeper level there's always a selfish reason behind them, because otherwise the allegedly-altruistic trait wouldn't have been able to evolve and thrive.

A few years ago, a British inventor appeared on a TV show called Dragon's Den (UK version of Shark Tank) and pitched his idea of an improved spray bottle called the Anyway Spray.

Instead of a normal plastic tube inside a bottle with an opening at the end, he designed a tube with millions of tiny perforations along its length. This meant the spray bottle could operate at any angle (even upside down) and could empty all liquid in a bottle with no leftover.

Here is a 1 min demo of the spray:

I brought it up not to nitpick semantics, but to elucidate to the, arguably more technical audience of HN, how the technical details can matter here.

Even to call it a "system" dialog is misleading, since it's just a system-provided library that each individual app is, technically, free to use or not use.

I certainly agree that it's annoying when the look, feel, and fucntion of all the apps' common interactions don't match each other. I do recall a time, though, when the system library features were so anemic, that I was actually glad of app's departure from the norm if it provided a useful new feature (e.g. "New Folder" button in a "Save" dialog).

I also agree that makes the suggestion of "use a Finder replacement app" not a solution to your real problem.

Maybe I'm suggesting that, to a nerdy-enough audience, you might have to state your real problem as being with "the Finder and all the system provided file-picking dialogs other apps tend to use".

Can people in finance and analysts start using stagger charts[0], please? Making predictions and not keeping score of predictions is useless. That's exactly what tarot readers do.

In the left column the months (or years or days) you make the predictions in. Top months are the months you're making the predictions for. The trace (R) is the actual real value (forecast of January in January, i.e: you have the number).

So:

The forecast for October made in January is 22.

The forecast for October made in June is 13.

The forecast for October made in September is 42.

This way, we can track all forecasts and track errors. The chart has memory. The chart cuts through bullshit.

So you think people who work hard for Tesla do not want/expect to make money on their stock options? It’s literally a part of compensation package.

> Do you believe in true altruism? If so, how do you think it arose in the human population?

I was going to constuct an argument of how altruism propels societies forward, even benefiting the "weakened" altruistic individuals among it.

But the more important point is that evolution not always finding a global maximum. Some traits that are beneficial, such as empathy, might have weird side effects that nature didn't yet bother to eliminate.

Do not rely with your security on regular expressions. They are a very

regexps (maybe barring the regexps in the tokenizer).
Altruism helps the group and others. And helping the group and others means they help you when you need it. It also helps the species as a whole. So it seems an altruism trait would be conserved for that reason. But that doesn’t make the trait selfish. The trait may have expected nothing in return when it developed, it just so happened it worked out that way. When a person feels the feelings of wanting to do good for another, that feeling itself is not selfish.
When Apple did the PowerPC -> Intel switch, they were going to a higher performing CPU, so the efficiency loss in having to emulate was somewhat offset by the higher performance processor. In this case, they will most likely be taking a step down in performance, compounding the loss of efficiency in having to emulate.
I know Apple has gone through these transitions before (68K -> PWR -> Intel). But if there is a move to ARM this is the first time they have moved away from a currently dominant ecosystem (yes, to another popular one in this case; but the earlier moves were all abandon ship style transitions). I don't see a lot of motivation for pre-compiled open source projects (such as R/CRAN) to maintain two copies of their software (one Apple AMD64 and one Apple ARM64) during the transition. Yet another thing that is going to make Macs less convenient for research and development.
Ask HN: MIT licensed code, how to properly use when heavily modifying code?
I was curious about current best practices or legal guidelines to follow when working with specifically MIT licensed (to focus discussion) but potentially any OSS license:

The context is MIT Licensed code from another company/author than yourself.

1. Heavily modify code (to the point of being not-recognizable) that was originally MIT licensed.

2. Base new code off of ideas/patterns etc from an existing library.

3. Use a utility function or portion that is a small part of a larger library.

Are the answers different if the target/child project is MIT licensed completely or chooses a different license?

I think there are two sides to this question, both important, the community/proper way, and the actual/legal way to handle attribution, future licensing. I'm interested in both.

Thanks
Employee compensation is valuable consideration of course. I prefer to not enable short sellers from profiting off of Tesla’s challenges, if that wasn’t clear.

The whole thing is hopelessly bogged down in linguistic vaguery to the point of making the key questions quite meaningless.

What is 'consciousness'?

Is it "the state of being awake and aware of one's surroundings" as the first hit on Google suggests? If so, can we then define 'awake', 'aware', or even 'one' without circular reasoning?

Why isn't it acceptable to define consciousness as the operating instructions of the mind?

This quickly leads to another linguistic quagmire called 'free will'. If we agree that everything in our heads is governed by the laws of nature, we can agree that there are one of two possible reasons for any 'decision' we make: it was facilitated by a direct cause or it was random. There can be no other actor.

Assuming a direct cause following our operating instructions, does this mean that there is no free will? To answer that we have to open up the word 'choice'.

Choice: "an act of selecting or making a decision when faced with two or more possibilities."

We loop around to the beginning.

You define 'decide' or 'choose' any way you want to. Tell me free will is real or fake. I don't care. All I know it there are no external actors in my head and things are either 100% predictable or random. Everything else here is a very roundabout argument about the way we use English. Boring.

The interesting question is, what is it about consciousness that gives rise to religious beliefs?

It's not "unexamined" (I'm referring to why intelligent people maintain religious belief). It's more about where one stands on the chicken-or-the-egg question. Did God endow us with consciousness, or does consciousness endow us with this temptation to believe, which is itself a form of qualia, one that's untethered from anything external (i.e. the sky being blue because of wavelengths of light).

There must be a reason why humans are burdened by this but my dog and cat are not.

Presented with an example of an algorithm having the appearance of self-awareness, how can you tell that it is not self-aware, yet when you apply the same criteria to humans, you conclude they are self-aware?

If you are thinking of Chalmers' p-zombie argument, that does not do the job, because it is, at most, a claim that Chalmers sees the logical possibility of p-zombies as plausible, which, even if one agrees, is a long way from an argument that apparently self-aware algorithms must therefore be faking it.

Let's give it a shot.

So first I have marked "Pentatonic Minor" and "A" as our key since this is probably a scale that you know. What you are seeing are all the notes in the scale laid out on the fret board.

If you look at fret 5 (second dot) and starting from the E string you'll see a red dot with a R in it. This is the "Root" of the scale, namely A. The next note is on the 8th fret and has a "b3" in it. You read this as "flat third". If you don't know music theory this might be confusing so please let me know if I've explained it in a non-understandable way.

To understand why we say "flat third" is that it is the third note in the _Major_ scale lowered half a step (or one fret on the guitar). So the A Major scale is A B C# D E G# G#, the Pentatonic Minor scale takes 5 notes from this scale, namely A(R) C#(3) D(4) E(5) G#(7) (original indexes in parens). We then lower the C# third note, and the G# (seventh note) so we get the scale A C D E G and those notes are what you see over the fret board.

However, I think it would have been quite difficult for me to get the concept of "holes" in semiconductor current, which are positively charged pseudo-particles created by the absence of electrons, if I hadn't been able to think of them as being like bubbles in a fluid.

Respectfully disagree. While LIDAR price is going down, retroffitting all FSD-enabled cars won't be cheap. It's like a recall, but instead of fixing or changing some part, you need to install new part, do all the wiring (which may include a lot of disassembling and assembling again) and test it. I can easily see 10-20 hours of human labor per car (plus cost of LIDAR itself, of course)
