Atheists can certainly act morally, and many do. But I would say that atheists don't have a basis for having morals.

dictionary.com says that morals have to do with "right conduct". But in atheism, there is nothing with the authority to give you a definition of "right". There's nothing absolute in the way that, say, the Christian God is absolute, except the universe, and the universe doesn't tell you what right conduct is. (I mean, there are the laws of physics, but that doesn't really help.)

So the atheist usually takes something non-absolute and makes it an absolute - society, or the human race, say. The choice is probably whatever corresponds most closely to the atheist's innate sense of moral right and wrong. And that gives that particular atheist a basis for morals within their own thinking. But "I chose this standard because it matches my sense of what's right, and then I think my conduct is right if it matches the standard" is, essentially, "I do what I decide is right". It's something weaker than what I think of as morals.

Ramez is much like Kurzweil, desperately needs to open a chemistry book.
Yep, I've been reading the docs with great interest. I'm also looking forward to getting the XLA/HLO dialect available. I'm thinking that might be a neat way to get immediate use out of MLIR in the julia world. There's a bunch of extra HLO passes I need to write for TPU performance and I figure might as well try to do that using MLIR.

Good to hear that getting this into LLVM is still in the cards - totally understood that there are organizational challenges, just want to keep pushing in the right direction :). My schedule doesn't allow me to be at EuroLLVM this year unfortunately, but I'm sure we'll get an opportunity to catch up before long. Now that MLIR is out it'd be fun to dig in in detail.
And EM characteristics are fixed.

Charcoal briquettes in a roaster pan can be useful there too, if you're ever in that situation. You get the radiative warmth without the flame (once it's burned down).
The solution, as I imagine it, is the following:

1. data for web apps should be stored separate from the servers as the code.

2. this separate data store should be owned by the user (not the provider of the web app).

3. user should be able to point the web app to another datastore if needed.

so, for example, if you user basecamp for project management. basecamp should be designed so that all data writes happen to a separate database or datafile. the data that i enter in web app (basecamp) should never be stored on basecamp servers. at setup i should be asked for a data store location (that I pay for and manage).

ofcourse, for non-privacy consicous customers, the existing status quo option can also be provided.

I think you're mainly new to the discomforting/uncertainty part. Take it slow and in steps. The uncertainty is always gonna be there in some shape or form. I've learned to embrace it at this point.

Great to hear you've been trying to be more open. Continue improving on that!
Yeah, it doesn't. But to me it sounds like that % of sales is organic. I mean, that's why it's news, no?

I think it's much more newsworthy that 40% of cars sold use petrol, when they cost DOUBLE because of taxes.

Ask HN: What's with the state of open-source dictionaries?
I've been writing recently, using libreOffice. Not very far in, but I've already have had to add a fairly long list of words to the dictionary. I also have noticed that the browser highlights a lot of these as well. So my question is whats going with the state of of these open source dictionaries, and how do we fix it? List words below:

depersonalization

Ask HN: Six months after the Bloomberg “spy chip” story?
It's been 6 months now since the story was published in Newsweek [1] and as far as I can tell they've never redacted the story or provided any evidence. Amazon, Apple, and Super Micro all still deny it but Bloomberg has stuck with their story.

Is this just the case of a news source refusing to own up to their mistake? Is it possible that their sources were lying to them on critical details? How does something like this happen without repercussions?

I agree that no one who is reasonable thinks that Americans who travel to Canada get to exercise the rights they hold as Americans in America. But is having a concealed carry permit in your wallet a reasonable indication that you have a gun on your person or in your vehicle? Statistically, in the US, CC permit holders are the most law abiding group in the country.
This is irrelevant.

The potential value is in an entire nation demonstrating it's possible to function perfectly well at a high quality of life on an electrified transportation system.

Whatever means were used to compel its citizens to cooperate with pivoting energy sources is moot. Every nation will have to figure that out for itself.

I was thinking exactly the same! The bullets he listed, I recognize every single one of them and I work for a self-driving car company.
The software that runs safety-critical flight controls is actually developed nothing like typical ecommerce or social media. It is designed and developed to an engineering standard. You can review DO-178C requirements[1].

Not all software has the same consequences for failure. The highest level is when failure is catastrophic, i.e. "Failure may cause deaths, usually with loss of the airplane." This requires the highest "Level A" assurance level.

Presumably MCAS was not originally evaluated as needing to meet the highest level. If it were, the single AoA input would have immediately disqualified the design right off the bat.

There's some speculation that the delays on the "fix" are because if they have to redevelop the software at a "Level A" standard that means basically a complete reimplementation with full tracability of requirements from design to source code through compilation to executable, with independent verification. That won't happen in a few weeks.

Yes, I understand that, but I think a reasonable interpretation of that is "The person who provides the bulk of the childcare (i.e. the person who switches focus most from work to family) is the person whose income potential takes the hit."

Now, I think it is a very reasonable and worthwhile discussion to have about whether women are unfairly expected to be the primary child caregivers in a relationship (though I still would worry that any natural tendencies that women may have a stronger desire to raise children than men would instantly be derided as some sort of societal bias in today's climate), but it still means that's the thing you should focus on, instead of the unrealistic expectation that focusing on your family instead of your career somehow means your wages should be the same as someone only focused on their career.
In business terms, we may be a long way from electric fire trucks, ambulances, and construction equipment.

In terms of the technology, I don't see anything stopping those from happening right now.
I care to disagree deeply on the notion that "Advertising" is somehow much better than "Adtech".

Note I am not saying "Adtech" is good, there are boundaries.

But notice "it shows a company can afford to advertise", "Advertising makes brands. Nearly all the brands you know were burned into your brain by advertising". Which makes winner takes all, and only big players can afford advertising. Which is bad and second half of 20th century was monopolized by giants that could afford buying all advertising space there was.

"Adtech" already is disrupting big companies monopolies allowing smaller players to be seen in the internet because of democratization of costs. But of course I agree it went wrong, though I don't know how to make it better, because if you would let people select their preferences it would be too much hassle and no one would care.

Maybe tracking-based would be OK if I could have all data on my machine and something like my personal assistant would help me with searching.

Haha, OK, I'm doubling down on upvote fraud here. Someone is clearly artificially upvoting sibling replies to my parent comment to displace it.

My parent comment received 14 upvotes and was ranked as the top response for the 4 hours after posting it.

Then, in the span of one hour, every other comment reply received enough upvotes to displace my parent comment. Even, "Thank you for sharing this".

Is there a way to call @dang over? It makes me sad that HN is being gamed.

GS has a track record of working well with the OSS community. They open-sourced and maintained GS-collections (now Eclipse collections), a highly-performant Java collections library that they had developed internally. They benefitted from community use and contributions, but no more than any other company that open-sources an internal project.

GS benefiting from open-source doesn't imply malicious intent.

It is entirely the US government's job to decide which speech is harmful: it just takes the view that most speech isn't harmful, and should be allowed. The First Amendment is part of the US government's decision on speech: its view is that most speech is more good than bad, and thus is protected. When it does decide that certain speech, like libel, is harmful, it bans it. It even can ban speech in specific contexts! For example, in Brandenburg v. Ohio the court upheld that speech "which would be directed to and likely to incite imminent lawless action" could be banned. So, saying an inflammatory thing privately to your friend, for example, could be fine, but boosting that post to millions of people could be viewed as "likely to incite imminent lawless action" such as a riot.

Sure, but how much is that influencing decision making? If the probability of that is relatively small, you still need to plan to have a successful business.
This is actually a property in information theory. Often used symbols should have short representations and rarely used symbols should have long representations.

People have a habit of automatically doing this. It's why pretty much every niche field or industry develops jargon and three letter acronyms. Everyone gets tired of saying the whole thing so it's shortened.

Not only does it just make sense that things like "fn" are going to be okay, but there's also some mathematical backing as to why it's okay.
Well, for one thing, anything that incentivizes the development and deployment of better batteries and power conversion technology will have massive benefits for us all. Renewable energy is more about storing power than generating it.
>It was so cold that the trains couldn’t operate and the diesel in the buses froze. But the Model S was just fine.

This doesn't seem to align with real world results from the Tesla forums, subreddit, and Twitter. Lots of complaints about reduced range and slow charging during the recent cold snap.

Whats the point of pretending that battery performance doesn't suffer in cold temperatures? Is this really up for debate with current tech?
"And at the very bottom there is a base piece of theorem-proving software that is only a few hundred lines of code that has been validated only by humans and self tests."

Is it possible for that part of the system, to proof it's own correctness?

It's obvious that the danger with such a proof is that the code may think it's correct while it's incorrect in thinking it's correct.

But if I have learned one thing, then that Mathematicians can sometimes be really sly foxes.
Setup Kibana Dashboards to make sense of your log data
They may not be able to prevent it without refusing to exfiltrate that data. But then they maintained clear resopnsibility (at the cost of usability) for the user's data. Excellent example though, because it highlights a real joint-ownership problem in data on a social network (the aggrieved fixermark in this case certainly couldn't have stopped his friend from hand-entering the details of the super-secret party into FakeCalendr without consent either; to a certain extent, sharing information always implies trust of the recipient to store that information responsibly).

Unfortunately, privacy / usability is the tradeoff. Facebook had clear incentives to simplify usability at the cost of privacy. But as a result, these breaches continued to happen.

(I use the past tense here because I don't know what their app ecosystem looks like now. When I was using it, it was extremely easy to do a full friends-of-friends data exfiltration, with the only guard against it being "Don't do that and then dump it publicly for all to see").
Not quite the same -- the issue wouldn't be that they didn't crank enough, but that cranking was physically impossible due to the aerodynamic load on the stabilizer created by being at high speed with the elevator and stabilizer airflow opposing each other. You'd have to release the elevator in order to regain control of the stabilizer, and you can't do that without losing altitude that you don't have to give.
> The commercial pressure to keep flying was almost irresistable, and you need someone without those commercial pressures to put the brakes on.

I fully agree (even expanded to all fields/areas/industries/activities - but let's try not to over-regulate everything, if possible :) ).
We had a very good system at Google and I think there are papers floating around about how it worked. You authenticated once per day per machine, and occasionally privileged operations would require human presence detection by pressing the security key. ssh, web... everything, all integrated. I wish we had the same system at my current job, but alas, much programming would be required.

I believe Google sells a product, the "identity aware proxy", that is very much like what existed internally. I haven't used it, so am unsure. But it sounds great.

EVs do a lot of things better than gasoline vehicles beyond the reduced taxes. Maybe not huge things but still...

One small thing which I've started to really appreciate is the almost non-existing engine noise. So relaxing driving it.

Also the superior acceleration comes in handy many times.
I don't think that's what they are trying to say at all:

https://projects.propublica.org/chicago-tickets/

Some of the insights they pull from this data: Most tickets are issues in majority-black wards, in places with high poverty rates. Motorists in these wards were found more at risk of losing a vehicle or declaring bankruptcy. Most tickets that are contested are in more well-to-do, majority-white wards, and contested tickets have more than a 50% chance of the driver being found not liable.

Here's what I draw from this: Parking tickets frequently trap the poor into a cycle of debt. People who have money and free time have more resources available to challenge the ticket and not have to pay.

That doesn't say to me "we should forgive tickets for low income residents" but it says to me we need to find other ways to enforce the parking laws that don't just make the poor even poorer.

This is true, insofar as (it seems to me) Spielberg is specifying the wrong criteria.

However, if you believe that the theatre experience is critical to a film, I think it's also fair to be annoyed at what Netflix is doing. Only a select few have the ability to see Netflix's films in a theatre, because they're only released to a couple theatres in a handful of major cities.

>What you are really saying is that you think countries have very good reasons to keep people that are not well off from entering.

Well, yes. As far as immigration goes, the policy of most non-US western countries is primarily merit-based or if you have money to invest in the country. If you aren't educated and productive and you're not a legitimate refugee, why should a country let you in? How does the country benefit?

Canada has a generous welfare system and social safety net that that would likely be unsustainable if it let in sufficient number of people unable to support their own benefits. Even if you hold the view that drug use ought to be a public health matter and not a criminal matter, there's a limited amount of immigration that can be sustained without overburdening these services and why let in a drug user when you can let in a doctor or engineer?

In the case of tourism, it's just about limiting risk of someone overstaying their visa.
> so the penalty is applied to only women

I don't think the data necessarily shows that. I would hypothesize that the penalty is applied to the person in the relationship who most switches focus to raising their children, which is currently most often the woman.

> And the unfairness here is that only women are physically capable of putting children on the earth

Well, yes, that is unfair, but blame God (or evolution) then?

Apple used to put effort into the details, that was the main reason their products were great. That attention to detail has been lost.

You probably would have had a better reception of your original post if you had opened with that. Is the issue at hand a minor quibble? Yup. Would the issue at hand have shipped seven, eight years ago? Ehhh, probably not. And when I run into such things now, it sends a cold, "Windows" feel down my spine, like someone knew it was wrong but "shipping is a feature, too". (Nothing personal, Windows, you've served many of us well, but attention to detail has never been your strong suit.)

Is it the beginning of the end, where the world throws down their MBPs in disgust? Nah, don't be silly. It does, however, give the feeling that Apple might be slipping a little of late.
I’d be interested to hear any use cases that people could imagine for this.
I don't really think this article is going to change the minds of anyone who thinks they're just applying arbitrary cultural standard to paper over what the hegemony finds icky. 'cause they are, and they admit as much.

Don't confuse power with torque. Big diesel engines run at super low RPM, so have low HP but high torque (since HP is just torque * RPM * a constant).

Only 8s and 9s have been produced so far. I'm not even sure that anyone other than Southwest has ordered the MAX 7 (it's less of an improvement over the -700 than the 8 and 9 are over the -800 and -900/-900ER).

Not really. Norway gets 80-90% of its electricity from hydro. EVs are a great way of leveraging that natural resource, hence the difference in taxation.
They feel Facebook is about to pass on, so to speak.

That Facebook will cease to be. That it will expire and go to meet its maker (as its last user). That it's about to be stiff, bereft of life, resting in peace. That if it hadn't been propped up by the network effect, it'd be pushing up the daisies. That Facebook is about to kick the bucket, to shuffle off its mortal coil, run down the curtain and join the bleedin' choir invisible.

That Facebook will soon be an ex-social network.
Fatigue as well. Looking at the flight track after the last and final nose down, it's they were overcome. Nose down -> more speed -> more stabilizer nose down force -> more nose down attitude even without a change in stabilizer -> more speed -> more stabilizer force -> more nose down attitude.
