< there simply is no positive way to jam more than a few dozen thousand people onto a single site

Agreed. The trick is, how do you leverage, or get around, network effects without destroying the community? Network effects create the problem, but are built in to the medium itself.

< But you can make it so that they're in a corner of the Internet, because everyone's in some corner of the Internet somewhere. We kinda had that in the 200x's and late 1990s. It mostly worked.

Youth is always sunny, but those days certainly seemed better. There was a meta-community of people just wanting to grow the internet, so everyone at least had that shared goal in common. I get that feeling here on HN for the most part.

I'm not complaining, your name choices aren't grievances of mine. I couldn't care less about the name of a stranger on the internet.

I'm informing you that they're objectively going to lower your chance of success. Considering that it is "impolite" to tell that to someone, it becomes uncommon knowledge. Fortunately, I'm not a polite person.

For what it's worth, if I had any scientific evidence that having an Anime avatar on Github lowered your chances of success, I would tell you that as well.

I will leave you with this quote by Donald Knuth:

"The most important thing in the programming language is the name. A language will not succeed without a good name. I have recently invented a very good name and now I am looking for a suitable language."

This is my perception. And ultimately, if a group is so isolated that their situation becomes actually indistinguishable from oppression or occupation, we have law for that; The Civil Rights Act was passed in part because letting the market decide doesn't work when an entire town or state is racist.

But society has a vested interest in people being judged on the content of their character and not the color of their skin or their gender. Society has no vested interest in bolstering the strength of people who should be judged on the content of their character.

Avoid the error of logic that conflates the tool with the use of the tool. Societal censure and giving people no more than what the law says we must give them is a completely appropriate response to the bigot, the fascist, and the misogynist.
The last one almost certainly refers to "forcibly occupying reserved seats" instead of doing it accidentally.

> BMI is a poor indicator of health

But it's an available statistic.

If we had doctors report on body fat % (even done with shotty capacitance) or hip/waist ratio we'd be better off.
If history is anything to go by:

You are confusing money for wealth. If I gave you back 3000 years in a time machine with a trillion dollars worth of gold (gold being money 3000 years ago) you would be much poorer than you are today despite having most of the world's money in your new era. Someone taking a log and turning it into a chair increases the world's wealth even if no money changes hands. Someone who prints money (via inflation or counterfeiting) has changed the amount of money in the world but has not changed the amount of wealth.
How does your point relate to the usefulness of Bitcoin? I highlighted that the quagmire of international payments is not a problem that Bitcoin can uniquely solve. It is not a technical problem at all!

Bitcoin has nothing special about it that would allow these countries to make payments between each other smoother. That is apart from sidestepping the existing regulatory framework.

It might have the beneficial side effect of competition, but that's not a virtue of Bitcoin as a concept. Perhaps the space is ripe for a new fintech startup that streamlines payments between these destinations.
I'm reminded of the guy who lost $400k by trying to do an international transfer of his own money through Quadriga at the point they collapsed.
That's likely a singing capacitor. Lots of electronics will "sing" like this FWIW.

Could also be a transformer but since this isn't a high voltage product it's more likely some disk capacitor in the circuitry.

1) $500M of the deal is cash. That can be spent on other things. Many other companies are investing large sums in NYC without cash or tax incentives. Why give amazon special treatment?

2) It was a back room deal in the sense that it was negotiated in private without input from stakeholders such as city residents.

With respect to your math, the goal of government is not to maximize tax revenue, but to provide benefits for residents. Moreover, even if it was, the proper comparison is to alternative development plans and not to zero. If the goal is to redevelop LIC, why not have a competitive bidding process to redevelop that area? Many companies and developers would be interested and would bid against each other. When you negotiate with one party in secret you lose all your leverage.

I don't understand why any deal is necessary. Google, Facebook, etc. all seem to be doing fine in NYC without special treatment.

This is not about being against Amazon or tech, it is about being again crony capitalism.

It's a Black Mirror kind of nightmare. Imagine spending your life sweeping sidewalks with a forced smile on your face hoping one of the government's informants will notice and write it in their book so that someday you'll be allowed to buy a ticket to see your family.

I think the nature of the entities are very different.

Facebook/Google/Paypal provide a new vector of boycotting/vigilantism. People with ideologies sufficiently unpopular with the mainstream get targeted for boycotts, which can spread to the rest of their financial and social network. This effect is impossible to separate from society because its an expression of something that's always been part of human society -- shaming and shunning.

The Chinese system is top down, and designed to maintain the Communist Party's hold on power. Every aspect of the system is dictated from the top, so of course it could easily be dismantled or changed.
DNN's make good features though, especially if you have time series data or lots of text.

I agree that the final model should be a randomforest/xgboost/lightgbm for typical tabular data.
"More minor violations include using expired tickets, smoking on a train or not walking a dog on a leash."

Now imagine the power of cops in such a state. They can destroy your life with little effort, espacially since restrictions of your life will probably snowball into more offences. E.G: how do you pay your taxe if you can't move to get a job ?

I don't doubt corruption is part of the program, but nobody is going to take down a cop at the risk of having 10 of his friends following every one of your step for the next month.

Are you saying that the most convenient and cheap way to handle a trustless distributed blockchain currency is .. within a single database? /s
The weaknesses of our technocratic mindset on HN are so apparent whenever this subject comes up.

This is not a technical problem. We know the threat, we know what we should do, but we can't actually get it done.

This is a political problem.

And to my eye, it's a particularly intractable one. In democracies, in order to make the huge sweeping changes required to avoid the worst of climate change, you need the population on board. And they are not on board for those kinds of changes. You can scream and wave your hands all you want about CO2 taxes and smaller houses and not eating meat, but as soon as you start hitting people in their pockets hard to encourage other actions, they'll just vote you out of office instead. There will always be another politician who is happy to tell the population that they don't need to put up with this crazy sacrifice, there are better ways, etc. So either you get voted out of office or you just cave to the pressure.

Humans are going to suffer from climate change, a lot. And even then, I suspect technology is what will save us, not billions of people deciding (for the first time ever) to make great individual sacrifices for the greater long-term good. It's the ultimate collective action problem, and we are not up for it.

Well you never know that! Sometimes politicians create the pressure themselves for the sake of their own interests.
Their system is easier to execute, definitely more difficult to pull off in bipartisan US with public and private sectors.
I don’t know the specifics of your circumstance but I can guarantee anyway that asking people to work the weekends was still an error on your part.

I can guarantee the following happened:

- your employees made more mistakes during weekend work

- at least a few had deteriorated health / sleep

- your teams morale took a hit

- you accomplished less than you would of had you had your employees come in regular weekly hours

Required weekend work is always a fault of management to properly plan and execute. Always. The few times I had my teams work the weekend I always admitted how I was at fault and how my poor planning would be the subject of a post mortem.

Fact-checking chatbot “Meiyu” shuts down dubious family texts
> has maybe 100,000 people on it, of which supposedly fewer than 1000 are American citizens

Your mindset is part of the problem. It's not about "them" or "us", about "American" or "Chinese", it's about the list itself and using systems like that.

China just seems to be more ruthless about using things like this, but in the end, there are enough more or less totalitarian systems which would love to have lists and procedures like this.
In the US, if you are on the No Fly List, I'm going to wager there's a fairly high likelihood that you have a vague idea why that may be.

Aside from the occasional duplicate name mix-up, you don't get arbitrarily put on that list. It is our way of saying:

"We suspect you're up to no good, however it falls short of the legal threshold of being able to charge you with a specific crime. However, we aren't obligated to grant you absolute freedom of movement. Take a car, or something, shit-bird."
Sounds like a great solution to an ever-growing problem. I think that this is the kind of thing people will gravitate to over time.

Nobody mentioned the Euro Zone before you did; they're talking about Europe "as a continent", for the most part.

Living in the UK, national payments are instant, with very few exceptions. And having lived in both Switzerland (where they use CHF), and Germany (Euros), I can say it's much the same across Europe.

International payments within Europe are fast too; a couple of days if you're changing currencies, and faster if both sides are in the Euro Zone.

Banks don't have to be slow. The only real issue I have is that the bank's exchange rates are criminal!
In simple terms, both blue and green light contribute equally to circadian interruption.

The graph itself is a comparison of spectral power distributions among several light sources. It's basically the signature of the light source, showing relatively how much of each color is produced in comparison to all the other visible wavelengths.

The gray area is melanopic sensitivity. This is the light that the ipRGCs[0] in the eyes are sensitive to, which provide input to the circadian rhythm. The peak is approximately 480-490 nm, but the overall sensitivity covers both blue and green wavelengths.

There's a great article on the blue/green concept by Ian Ashdown [1].

If you use the f.luxometer tool [2], developed by the f.lux team, you will see that same curve.

EDIT (for clarity): In the graph you linked, ignore the color of the lines. That is just to distinguish the different light sources. Just pay attention to the intensity of the wavelengths on the x-axis. The y-axis scale is 0 to 1, as this graph is normalized, so hardly necessary to show. Let me know if I can help clarify this further!

> They're all symbols of the most extreme cases, and we latch on to them because they're recognizable, inflammatory, and get us riled up to want to do something

Having moved from Australia to the US then Canada and having spent over and month in more than 50 countries around the world, I can tell you the US does this more (better?) than other countries.

The entire US system and political discourse is setup as right/wrong, black/white, right/left, and leaves no room for discussion.

In America you're either pro-life or pro-choice, pro-guns or anti-guns, etc. etc. There is no middle ground, no room for a discussion and certainly you can bet your bottom dollar nobody would ever listen to someone from the other side and perhaps learn something.

Happily, in my experience other countries are not nearly as bad as this, and I hope like hell we don't follow suit like we have with too many other bad habits of the US.
Cool! But why and when? How would I use loaders with this? (GLTF etc)

>How do people live what that level of stress continunally?

They have no other choice. Education is far too expensive to better yourself and train for a better career, everything is designed to suck every possible penny from those with less money than average, and if you don't work your ass off to pay what you can, you die on the street because we have no safety net. Being poor is a treadmill. If you were born poor and don't get absurdly lucky, you can look forward to being poor forever and passing that great experience onto your possible children.
