Exit Through the Gift Shop came out when I was in college and changed my relationship with documentaries and films in general. I won't discuss much of the plot here, but it forces you to really change the way you understand documentaries and to be more critical.

Generation Wealth made me really re-consider the world around me and how culture has shifted in the past 10 years. It was quite eye opening and also forced me to think differently about the people around me.
2 complete hull losses out of 350 is pretty unacceptable to me.
Yet, 2 stroke scooters don't have to have the same emission controls as automobiles. This is because they have a small carbon footprint; as a class, they don't contribute that much to pollution.

Benzene may be more acutely poisonous than some other molecule which also has six carbon atoms, but from the planet's perspective, it's just six carbon atoms.

If you're breathing any exhaust, you're taking in CO. Less pungent smelling exhaust is not any better for you.
Cars are already piping fake engine noises through their speaker systems [1], so this idea isn’t that far away.

> 'Of course’, it does lead to the obvious absurdity that a woman who fulfills all the good qualities of the poem is a man!

But...it doesn't. While the fictious direct addressee is the “son” (whether literal or in the figurative sense of an protege of an elder mentor is neither explicit nor important, since the whole impact of the poem is in its general applicability not in it being specific to an addressee) of the speaker from whose POV the poem is told, the son/man pairing necessarily states that the qualities are tied to adulthood/maturity, but is just as valid if they are not inherently tied to gender as if they are.
> There is no way forward on climate that isn't structural and doesn't hold powerful organizations to account.

There is a lot of truth in that. As it is now though, some meat eaters will say that businesses need to stop murdering animals, while people controlling and working at those businesses will say that they're only doing it because people buy it. It's an easy and convenient view to hold, because it let's everyone put the blame on someone else, while not having to do anything themselves.
Equally, you can't build a server-side app that works offline. There's arguments for and against regardless of what you choose.
The last two points are not specific to the article but to the category of vaguely contrarian points about modern web development in which the article resides. And I’m a little skeptical of the premise, which is that we need to increase awareness of non-SPA architectures. Even though there is a lot of hype around SPA’s and fancy front end driven architectures, I’d bet that the vast majority of code written and new developers minted are primarily focused on server side web applications. It’s just nobody ever says “yknow what’s new and hot and the thing everybody should use? Java servers!”

The experience is definitely easy, but it's hard to believe that it's simple. Oftentimes things that are very easy on the surface have a whole lot of complexity going on under the hood.

In the case of SPA frameworks, I've not spent much time with them (I'm the back end guy on my team), but the most striking things I see whenever I get involved in a project that uses them, and when I've taken the time to learn them, is that there are just so many moving parts. And a whole lot of stuff about the internal logic of whatever SPA framework you're using, and possibly how specifically you're using it, that a newcomer has to know before they can really work efficiently. They're so complicated that I sometimes see people having to do some really elaborate things to get them to play nicely with other stuff they want to do. Using D3 in the same site comes to mind there.

A bit hyperbolic, though the fact remains that he should consider strongly handing off the reins to a capable and trusted lieutenant (take a look at SpaceX - probably closer to his heart but run competently by Shotwell).
I am glad physical switches are making a come-back in computers and phones but I wish it had happened sooner and because it's more convenient and practical than a stupid piece of unreliable integrated flaky software rather than for privacy concerns (meaning: why did we convert hardware knobs to software ?).
As a software developer you can get salary in range of $3000 - $5000 per month on the top level. You can make even more if you are good and work remotely/contracting. With this salary moving to Europe won't give you a rise, you are likely to make less in most EU countries. Moving to US will give you a rise in salary but not radical. People I know moving to EU/US not because of money, they move because of health care, education, crime, corruption and perceived lack of a better future.
Your explanation doesn't make sense to me. How many watts does a non-LED light consume vs charging an EV? A good sized light is probably less than 500 watts. To charge an EV you need thousands of watts. The street lights must have been wired with a massively over-designed electrical conductor (and upstream infrastructure) or there would be no way to charge EVs in any kind of density. Based on the power draw of EVs, I don't see how it can work without putting in new cabling.
Neither. Right now AWS seems to be acting in the best interest of the ElasticSearch community, but this doesn't extend to open source as a whole.

For the long-term, the open source community should look to projects where the center of gravity is outside of an open core or FANG company. ElasticSearch went open core a while ago, and Elastic's form of open core is more like MongoDB or Redis than it is like nginx or Docker. As for Amazon, I think I'd rank them below facebook, and I would rank facebook below google and Microsoft, as stewards of open source projects.

A written defamatory statement is libel. Spoken defamatory statements are slander.

Part of the problem with organizations publishing stories like this and calling it “news” is that there is a higher bar for proving defamation against a news origination;

Where the defamatory comments are made by the media or where they are directed towards a public figure, the First Amendment requires that the defamed person must prove the offender published a defamatory statement with knowledge that the statement was false or with a reckless disregard of its falsity.

"Senior" is a red herring. Software has near zero marginal cost and unbounded potential value, so you'll always have more copies of the software running in the world than people who know how to use it well.
> I would guess that that is what OP meant. If you introduce a price, you can actually remove even stronger restrictions that are in place based on morality. Because as long as you're being charged, you can assume the price is inclusive of your moral hazard.

This, but also that a dividend gives a mandate to continue.

I'd say that dividends and fines are distinct, in that a fine typically comes with the understanding that wilfully continuing what you got fined for will result in an even larger fine. Conversely, accepting money in return for some wrong committed against you would typically make it harder to get an injunction against that activity.

Surely it's more nuanced than that! I like the idea of my pocket-spy definitely, for sure, not being able to turn on the wifi radio because I've cut the power with a hardware switch. What worries me is that this ability might cause complacency.
An inexperienced dev might do something like put API keys in frontend code. You can even do an advanced search of Github to find people's keys to steal to get access to paid APIs.
Id like No 1 and 2 to be separated. I stay on Wifi a lot but rarely use Bluetooth. Far as mic vs camera, I also use the camera separately from the phone. Keeping video off by default can block privacy invasions that can happen, by attackers or buggy apps.

On covering tablet/laptop camera threads, a few people not worried about spying said some video app came on broadcasting to coworkers. One was in bed half-naked with spouse. Another on toilet in office. So, they cover cameras or kill video apps by default to prevent that stuff from happening again.
> Commissions were cut, slashing many salaries 50 percent or more with no notice. Employees weren’t allowed to take paid time off out of concern everyone would use it to look for other jobs.

Boy, that's a dick move. Tesla decides to lay off it's works, so it cuts their pay and attempts to sabotage their efforts to find other work?

Seriously, professionally run companies offer extra pay (e.g. severance) to employees they need temporarily but plan to lay off.

Wow. Not turing complete, but definitely a computation device imho. It measures and compiles data automatically, then exports that to a visual display. And it uses electricity.

Our mission is articulated here and does not change: https://openai.com/charter/. As we say in the Charter, our primary means of accomplishing the mission is to build safe AGI ourselves. That means raising billions of dollars, without which the Nonprofit will fail at its mission. That's a huge amount of money and not something we could raise without changing structure.

Regardless of structure, it's worth humanity making this kind of investment because building safe AGI can return orders of magnitude more value than any company has to date. See one possible AGI application in this post: https://blog.gregbrockman.com/the-openai-mission#the-impact-...
OpenAI is slowly but surely turning into another for profit AI company. They are slowly killing all the original ideals that made OpenAI unique over the hundreds of AI startups. They should just rebrand it.

And they are unironically talking about creating AGI. AGI is awesome of course but maybe that is a tiny little bit overconfident ?

I would agree with both. When I test drove one a) I realized the acceleration was otheworldly compared to my Prius b) Autopilot was good but not amazing c) I still wanted one badly (and still do - until recently I couldn't justify the cost esp. insuring it, will get one after my current lease ends).
That's fair, but if your stance is that users should be educated to vote with their wallets, then I wonder if you've considered adding a disclaimer on the site saying "Nvidia users don't waste your time, here's why"?

Whatever you personally think, you're dealing with a lot of biological wiring which is intended to optimize your life towards the goal of having children successfully raised to adulthood until they also have children.

This wiring does not work with all individuals nor can it always cope with modern life. But it is still a pretty big factor.
That depends on whether or not the machine has a conscious experience, and we have no way to interact with that question right now.

The reason we care about slavery is because it is bad for a conscious being, and we have decided that it is unethical to force someone to endure the experience of slavery. If there is no conscious being having experiences, then there isn't really an ethical problem here.

I'd be curious if people on HN would want a zero knowledge survey and voting system inside Keybase, and if so, what would it look like?

The background: we talk about it sometimes as a solution to a real problem: in certain teams and workplaces, people can be afraid to give honest feedback (who dares to submit an "anonymous" survey to HR?), but Keybase may be in a unique position to let people in a group give written feedback, vote on something important, or rate an experience. Without any risk of exposing identity, short of writing something identifiable in a text field.

I'd be curious, personally, to see management get a yearly vote of [no] confidence, for example. Is that crazy?

Keep in mind we are mostly focused right now on user experience and performance improvements. But we allocate a certain amount of time to cryptographic features that just aren't possible in other software, such as this coin flip thing. We've been talking about voting and surveys, too.

I work in Alberta and we have 5 distinct health care regions although we all work under one umbrella organization. All regions use different EMR systems, some regions and major hospitals are still not currently using any system, and all orders are written by hand.

This sounds suspiciously like the battle software developers have been waging with people who want to run software development in a manufacturing model. The battle itself really sucks the love of making something right out of you.
Yes you can. You're just limited to a floor model rather than the one you buy (personally not an issue for me).
So, if containers are so wonderful why aren’t we all using them in place of VMs? There are several reasons. First, containers are theoretically more insecure than VMs.

Container breakout can be mitigated with SELinux. It can take a little more initial setup to get that working, but we have mitigated 0-day vulns by having SELinux enabled on docker hosts.

In practice, containers can also hold bad, out-of-date software that comes with security issues. Containers can also be harder to manage–albeit Kubernetes is taking care of the management issue.

This same issue applies equally to bare metal, VM's and containers. It comes down to your build pipelines and the discipline of your org. If anything, containers are easier to rebuild and deploy. VM images are usually a bit bigger. Bare metal images even more so.

> If drugs "remove the long standing subconscious filters and biases that one has built over their life," what replaces them?

Perhaps I should've phrased this better. These filters are removed temporarily (for the 8-12 hours that the drug is active), then it is up to the individual to do what they will with the findings while the filters are gone. I don't think one needs repeated exposure either. I have seen many cases among my friends, most have never felt the need to repeat the experience.

There are risks of course, and a change for the worse is a distinct possibility. A dramatic change like delusions and paranoia are fairly rare, but are ostensibly a risk. There is a reason why every sensible source advises to do mental prep-work, and in a clinical setting, the whole treatment is overseen by a professional.
