Hey, Adam from MeetButter here (OP).

Oh no! Our branding was totally tongue-in-cheek, we felt that it was fun. But if it's conjuring negative images when you see it, that's totally bad! I'll feedback this to the rest of the team.

Quoting from the link (emphasis mine):

> symmetrized __tensor product__ of n single-particle Hilbert spaces H

And clarifying your statement by copying from the wiki page (emphasis mine):

> direct sum of the symmetric or antisymmetric tensors in the __tensor powers__ of a single-particle Hilbert space

(which is very different from the direct sum you suggest in your comment)

I work with all of this in my day job and the research work I produce (which does deal a lot with quantum description of multiples modes of light) is usually perceived as correct by my academic colleagues. I am honestly trying to see how to interpret what you are saying differently, in a way that does not clash with the established knowledge on the topic, but I can not, even though I have non-negligible experience in the field. At best, I assume we are talking past each other while describing the same thing, but I am certainly uncomfortable with your use of "subspace" and "direct sum".

Going to the very first comment of yours that started this: My claim is that a mode (something that has a creation operator) can very well contain one, or two photons, or a coherent state, or anything else from its Hilbert space. There is no correspondence between plane waves and Fock states. We can use Fock states with other modes instead of plane waves, and we can have plane waves with a quantum state that is a coherent state for instance.

I think the nuance of what I was implying got lost there. It seems likely there is no inherent purpose to human life and that we're simply an accidental byproduct of the natural laws of our reality.

Yet the closest identifiable thing we could conceivably call a "purpose" is gene propagation. I should have clarified that this isn't necessarily a "good" purpose. In fact, much of what is programmed by evolution is arguably net detrimental insofar as it is readily exploited.

Is this worth it? I've eyed System76 laptops for a while, just to see what the experience is like to run a laptop build with Linux integration in mind.

On eBay, you can get a 32GB RAM, mid-range i5/i7, with RTX-2060 6GB for ~$1,300 used.

It looks like ~$1,800 for the same specs (though brand new, and with a better CPU since it's 10th gen i7).

I'm not a hardware guy, can anyone here weigh in? Would really appreciate it.

Don't have a ton of money, I've been using a $650 Acer Nitro 5 with 8GB RAM + GTX 1060Ti (absolute steal) for few years but it's been freezing multiple times a day recently (lots of containers, my IDE, etc) so trying to future-proof best I can for max value.
Not really, but the result is essentially no fees. And thanks to Moore’s Law there’s no trade-off for it. Bitcoin (Core) is insane for having high fees.
Certainly true, but a liquid market of subjectively valued items that preserve value well - art, jewelry, and real estate - is awfully convenient.

If I were someone who needed defensible transfers of large amounts of wealth in discreet transactions, London real estate laws certainly are convenient.
On somewhat related note, I've always wondered how come links from the Quora digest email just have the URL "quara.com" with no direct link to the question/answer?

I get that it links to a SPA. But this seems intentional.
The initial report indicates they did try to, but many planes won't allow reverse power unless some other indicator (landing gear down an in contact with the ground) says they're on the ground.

So maybe they'll go to idle but won't reverse, because reverse while in the air would be bad.
Nice to see NoClip getting some love on HN. I'm an unabashed Danny O'Dwyer fan and I think this community would enjoy all of NoClip's work if this is your first taste. His docs cover quite a few behind the scenes stories that I feel all us startup / programmer folks can relate to. His work captures the heart of what it means to be a creator. My dream is that one day he makes a doc about the community around Vim. It'll never happen, but a boy can dream.

It shouldn’t be there long enough for yield to matter, so I don’t know why one would take on that complexity. Step 1, put it somewhere absolutely safe and fairly simple. Step 2, talk to someone and decide what to do with it longer term (which probably won’t be bank deposit or TIPS).

In step 1, the goal isn’t to keep pace with inflation because, for the few months required to do step 2, inflation doesn’t matter.

(My meta-comment is: spend the time you’d spend reading r/FatFIRE or asking HN on finding and talking with a planner instead. I assumed you just found out because, if it’s already been a few weeks, there’s no reason to still have this question. I don’t mean to offend you, but: a few hours with a professional who knows your specific situation will be more helpful than anything you’ll find online.)

I expect there to be a momentary burst in attempts to go remote-first, or at least hybrid. Senior executives will want to level the playing field between expensive areas and cheaper ones, and use that to drive down salaries overall.

But then, there are plenty of managers who really see a lot of value in spontaneous face-to-face interactions, or even planned ones, because so much communication happens just in body language alone. So I expect to see a rebound as the next generation of ambitious managers decide there is a competitive edge in an all-local team.
There are far more constructive ways to engage in discussion here than “LOL” at someone’s assertion and denigrating someone else’s knowledge.
Safari is the absolute worst web browser by far. Both mobile and desktop.

This kind of egregious error is only the most obvious part.

Try doing a WebRTC conference call in Safari. Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Slack, Zoom, Jitsi Meet, etc, etc, etc. None of them support Safari. Do you know why? It's because Safari is absolutely riddled with bugs: [1][2][3].

It is incredible how bad Safari is.

I usually don’t quote the article, but the last few paragraphs are important and easy to overlook:

Elbakyan says she hasn’t approached any political parties or government bodies, thinking they could pick up on the censorship argument if they were interested. She does not believe most people are interested in discussing freedom of knowledge.

“There is no real community to discuss that, you hardly hear such voices. Not just in the mainstream media, but even on YouTube, for example. It all died by 2013, when Aaron Swartz died,” she said, adding that even though many people are using her website or pirate websites such as torrent trackers, few care how and why they work.

“People don’t think about the [copyright] laws, about doing something about it or voting against it,” Elbakyan says. “When people reach out to me, they usually write to say ‘thank you’ or ask how to better donate.”

Sci-Hub’s standoff with the publishing industry is a good fight, Carter (who is also a CoinDesk columnist) believes. “The law and morality don’t always match up, and they certainly don’t in this case,” he said, adding:

“Sci-Hub has undeniably made the world a better place, and Alexandra has had to live as a pariah because of it. Funding her operations with bitcoin perfectly demonstrates its value proposition.”

Apple is unlikely to ever have any major SoC features which are generally useful to end users that are exclusively available in their chips for more than a year or two. Even if Win10 ARM vendors or whatever’s coming for PC are playing catch-up with Apple, we’re unlikely to see major divergence. People still need to get roughly the same things done whether they prefer Apple or otherwise.
> The end result is more accurate output, at the expense of battery life.

Do you have sources? GPS is passive, yes, but the signal is very weak and several orders of magnitude below the noise threshold. Keeping receiver circuits enabled for a long time costs battery power as well. WiFi information can be obtained entirely passively as well, as AP's transmit their info regularly.

I think the difference rather comes from lots of bloaty background services on Android.
Thanks!

If you thrive on adversity and school doesn't offer any it is easy (even for a kid) to seek it out.

However, if you don't thrive on adversity and school doesn't provide a safe environment, you're screwed. There aren't many other choices.

That's the issue. Nobody's saying that your experiences are bad, or that conflict is bad. But some folks don't "develop bullshit tolerance" from adverse experiences in school; they develop trauma.

Really fascinating seeing which regions of the world correspond to their closest capitals and which don't. Europe and Africa seem pretty close to what they are on the real world map whereas large countries such as America, Russia and China look nothing like the Voronoi.

I might be stretching it, but I think the Westphalian Nation State model originating in Europe is why European nations have more "natural" borders with respect to their capitals.
What I really want to know is: Can someone describe what "heat" is to me?
I see no inherent problem of confusion if this is well managed. Coca-cola has Coke Zero and Dasani in their family of products. Yet nobody confuses Dasani for Coke. Nobody even confuses Coke Zero for Coke. Sometimes it makes sense to have a strong association with the "flagship" brand and sometimes not.

Also, I suggest that maybe one should think about branding from the perspective of a naive user. Is it true that there is a well-understood distinction between Wikipedia, Wikimedia Commons, and Wikinews? I think not. We can't even get people to understand that Wikileaks isn't associated with Wikipedia. For the general public, if it has "wiki" in the front it's Wikipedia.

Given that, the main problem is using words that are almost, but not quite, Wikipedia. If you work at the Foundation, and have to explain what you do to anyone else, it's pretty annoying. I worked for the Wikimedia Foundation on MediaWiki software on a project primarily for Wikimedia Commons which is a backend for Wikipedia. It sounds like you're just doing permutation rounds of several syllables.

I'm not sure what the argument is about, other than the various wikiprojects' disdain for each other and the Foundation itself. Which I admit is sometimes earned, in every direction. The WMF isn't always the best partner. The standards for some wikiprojects are abysmal and for some they are quite high.

But when you get right down to it, that's true of all the language variants of Wikipedia too, and they literally do share the exact same name. Has that been a problem as well?
> > What would it take to convince you that whatever problems you're envisioning, they are not worse than 150,000 people dying every day, or 100 people ever minute?

> You'd have to start by convincing me that death is unconditionally bad.

That's not a point I'd try to argue. I'd argue that on balance, a human life has positive value, a human death is horrifically bad, and that the net value of 150,000 people dying every day is at the very least negative, not positive. Is that a point you're disputing?

I want to establish a baseline here, because while there are plenty of counterarguments to be had, I don't want to spend time mentioning or pointing to counterarguments for positions you don't hold or points you don't wish to argue. Which of the following (if any) are accurate descriptions of a position you hold?

1) You're arguing that on balance, there are resource constraints that make life worse for everyone if there are more people in the world, that people living longer (let alone forever) is on balance worse for people in the world, worse than the harm of those people dying. I can think of plenty of counterarguments to this.

2) You're arguing that there are specific people who will do a great deal of harm to society, that that harm would be substantially greater if those specific people live forever, and that there's less harm caused by killing them (or "letting them die", which you might not see as equivalent, though I do). There are plenty of counterarguments for this position.

3) You're arguing that on balance, society needs some kind of regular "turnover" of who is in power, and that death helps serve this function, and that this function is important enough to justify continuing to let mass numbers of people die. I know plenty of counterarguments for this too.

4) You're making some other argument tantamount to a "tragedy of the commons", where the incremental value of an individual human life is positive but you're concerned about the limit as those numbers keep going up and other numbers don't.

5) You're arguing that for some reason other than the above, most or all people should die, and that this is on balance not a bad thing, or even that this is a net good. This would be a rather broad gulf of fundamental values to attempt to bridge; I can imagine some places to start but it'd require a lot more information about exactly what your values are that support this position.

(I'm also going to reiterate, as my own baseline, that every time you imagine a number of people dying and try to assign a net value involving that, you would need to imagine every one of the 100 deaths per minute, 150,000 per day, 57,000,000+ per year, every single one being as awful as someone you personally care about being killed. That's incredibly hard to do, and it's hard for anyone to process on that scale either; the most I've managed is to calibrate to "mind-bogglingly worse than any possible intuition I can fathom even taking into account everything I've said here".)

This article hints had why I am always suspicious of "UX" and "UI" engineers. As it notes there is a strong resistance to formalism of any sort, and working with and considering the user doesn't seem to be the first element of design rather a focus on "style" and "differentiation" seem to plague the field. Ultimately software is to be used to accomplish a task and if you aren't aiding in that are you really adding value.

Of course as I type this comment I am forced to confront my own hideous reflection as a software engineers as all of the criticisms I level at "UI" and "UX" engineering apply just as well to my own field. The difference is instead of being Bohemians about how the drop shadow effects the overall sense of user well being, we are hipsters in whatever the newest framework or language is because it introduces some old concept repackaged as a new feature and is the hot shit. Many argue that programming is more of an art than a science that a good developer can just right good code and it can really be measured, and how often is software projects, personal or professional derailed by wanting to have a "pure and elegant" architecture, or one that is hyper scale, meanwhile the business just wants crap done, and there is plenty of times that developers build something without ever talking to a user.

I don't know maybe there is some reflection to be taken out of this. On the other hand I think designers have been screwing with things to much we reached the pinnacle of UI and UX in the Unix tool chain, CLI, terminal, text based human computer interaction and everything after that is designed for wussies that aren't worthy to work a keyboard.

Hey, Adam from MeetButter here (OP).

I agree, every project is different. I don't believe that my experiences and advice should be a catch-all for all projects and teams everywhere, there are too many permutations.

Without defining the variable X (for X amount of weeks) that you should take for an MVP, the general advice for MVP is to build as little as possible, launch fast, fail fast, and reiterate.

There are industries where the barriers of building an MVP are much higher. For example, in ML you need to train your algo huge amounts of data. In the automotive industry, you need to meet a lot of minimum requirements to even enter the market.
+1 for Rimworld. I've sunk hundreds, if not thousands, of hours into that game. It doesn't have the same depth as Dwarf Fortress, but still has a lot of depth and a ton of Fun. Especially with Randy Random and his random event generator
I understand that VirtualBox has a "software emulation" mode (on x86 host and guest) where it doesn't use any hardware virtualization features, and instead runs the guest OS with some sort of JIT that rewrites any hardware access to VM calls. Maybe that would work in Rosetta?

That is an often overlooked part of the equation. If I remember correctly, Japan was a week or two away from being split in two like germany.

And Japan and the Soviet Union had been at each others throats since before there was a Soviet Union and Japan thumped the tsar.

I am sure Japan did not want to surrender under a Soviet flag that was looking for 50 years of retribution.

In a strange way it was an American coup to get peace signed before Russia started stripping the place down to the bone.
So that's how this happens. I always thought it had something to do with sticky arrow keys or something.
