The author is working very hard to build an indifference to the self into what is an emotional and psychological meaning to that phrase. Logic and language rules only get you so far removed from desires and romantic realities. I get these attempts are innocent from an american cultural perspective, but paul is not the next colbert.

I never get tired of the internal contradictions people rely on to dismiss what is in front of their face. The start of this article declares that the phrase is meaningless and then ends with a fake revelation that the author has defined it's meaning. The author is so determined that the initial reaction is meaningless that we need to read three paragraphs about palming off nature to a language game.

Bring back Steve Jobs.
Great comment! For the iron - ageing link, we used two pieces of data: the effect of DNA on blood iron levels, and the effect of DNA on how long and healthy you live. We found the mutation that causes hereditary haemochromatosis had a large effect on early death (as expected). However, other genetic variations that increased blood iron levels also had a proportional effect on early death. So it looks like it is higher iron levels, not just haemochromatosis, that may accelerate the rate of ageing.
Good for drawing but not the best for taking notes/journals. You can export your drawings as PDFs to Notability or GoodNotes tho.
I was reading ..somewhere.. that a person having a negative interaction on an online forum increased the likelihood of that person then going on to make a negative comment themselves 300%. When I read that HN's zealous downvotes of slightly impolite comments started to make a bit more sense to me. It's better to avoid snark and sarcasm, as fun as they are.
> So ... the illegally spied on US citizens in order to test their spycraft.

Xerox employees installed the rig on a copier at the Xerox workplace to test the camera they invented, and Xerox employees looked at the photos of the documents. This was before they turned the camera over to the "CIA spooks", who did not (according to the story) look at the documents in the US headquarters of Xerox.

I agree 100% with your points about the need for regulation and oversight, but this is not the incident that carries those points.

> teaching all devs on how to do devops within 2 months

Estimation based on initial guts should be quadrupled and rounded to the nearest quarter... so 9 months. This should provide a 90% percentile chance of success.
Are you forgetting a Jacobian? The maximum probability isn't inside the nucleus for an s-orbital. E.g. for hydrogen, the maximum probability for the electron is one bohr radius away from the center of the nucleus (and the expectation value of the radius is 1.5 bohr radii away).

I had a flat-earthier as a roommate for about half a year. We had some detailed discussions about his beliefs, which was interesting since my time at the South Pole gives me personal experience that directly contradicts most of his beliefs. The guy clear had a very poor understanding of math (especially geometry) and physics (especially optics) but was a generally nice guy with a good head on his shoulders.

I would trust very ñittle he had to say about things outside of his direct experience, since his BS detector was apparently broken, but I would tend to trust his knowledge of things he had dealt with directly.

While I don't judge people for their ideological bent, I do judge them for uncritically accepting BS because it fits their ideological bent. This leads me to dismiss many of the knowledge and opinions of people who find themselves trapped in the ideological games played by our media.
If the Fed would put Coinstar type machines in Post Offices without charging a fee or taking a cut, I think they would find a lot more people who are willing to get their coins back into circulation.

It would have to be cheaper on an ongoing basis than constantly minting coins.

Wrapping coins and exchanging them at a bank is just too tedious and time consuming.
Ignoring your condescending tone, there is no need for another thread to "enable" running the simulation at a fixed frequency.

In fact, a myriad of games (and other kinds of simulations) have been doing exactly that for a very long time.

> People seriously underestimate both the current economic efficacy of existing lithium ion batteries, as well as the continuous and seemingly inexorable improvement in costs.

Maybe because the cost of devices have skyrocketed and the battery dont last any longer... And in addition to that, you can no longer replace batteries.

I am really impressed with it as a natural language engine and query system. I am not convinced it "understands" anything or could perform actual intellectual work, but that doesn't diminish it as what it is.

I'm also really worried about it. When I think of what it will likely be used for I think of spam, automated propaganda on social media, mass manipulation, and other unsavory things. It's like the textual equivalent of deep fakes. It's no longer possible to know if someone online is even human.

I am thinking "AI assisted demagoguery" and "con artistry at scale."
If your only examples are North America and China, it may feel like there is a direct tradeoff between safety and privacy. But that would be a false analysis: most Western nations have far lower rates of violent crime than the United States, without the need for omnipresent surveillance.
"Understand" is up for debate, but it's clearly learning something. The fact that it's possible to learn general structure as well as we can from unlabeled data does seem like a significant development.
I thought so, but thanks for doubleczeching.
Ha.. or they'll send multiple invoices from no-reply, then pass you off to debt collection and/or lawyers.

I'd draw a distinction between this kind of email - where a company is at least trying to require you to do something, and which may have ongoing personal or legal or personal ramifications ( e.g., credit score ), and just about any other commercial email, whether it's a "campaign", or automated function alerts or whatever.

Sending invoices from no-reply, with a vague "see our website for contact details" is such terrible customer service that it borders on bullying.

If a business can't deal with all the auto-responders, then the method of response should include enough context that the first person a reach knows what's going on, and is most likely the right person to deal with the response. So, for example a link to a contact form that's prefilled with context information ( like an invoice number, or a ticket number that was auto-created when the invoice was ), and that routes directly to the correct people, eg ccounts, not sales or tech support!
Please dont break my sentence half way. Western media has been doing that and they wonder why the Chinese ppl are not receptive of their messages or ideas. I feel it's too impolite so I will not follow up on the rest. Sorry.
Businesses need regulation to address externalities like this. Email is cheaper than almost any other form of messaging but unethical businesses will still try to cut corners if they’re allowed to.

Validating emails is a similar example: it’s trivial to do but marketing weasels think it cuts into their stats and try not to do it. This is how I end up with major companies sending me information like their customers’ names, phone numbers, home addresses, and license plates because protecting their customers’ privacy just isn’t going to happen without significant legal penalties.
They're basically the same thing, just the integer aliasing approach is a lookup table with one element in it, while an actual lookup table will have more, giving better precision for roughly the same cost (or even better, since you don't need to load the constant into a register).

>The scientific objectives for the Hope Mars Mission, as agreed upon by the global Mars science community, are aimed at providing a complete picture of the Martian atmosphere. The probe will study the climate daily and through seasonal cycles, the weather events in the lower atmosphere such as dust storms, as well as the weather at different geographic areas of Mars. According to the Hope Mars Mission team, the probe will be the "first true weather satellite" at Mars.[25]

>The Hope probe will also study the atmospheric layers of Mars in detail and will provide data to study: the reason for a drastic climatic change in the Martian atmosphere from the time it could sustain liquid water to today, when the atmosphere is so thin that water can only exist as ice or vapour, to help understand how and why Mars is losing its hydrogen and oxygen into space, and the connection between the upper and lower levels of the Martian atmosphere.[25] Data from the Hope probe will also help to model the Earth's atmosphere and study its evolution over millions of years.[20] All data gained from the mission will be made available to 200 universities and research institutes across the globe for the purpose of knowledge sharing.[20]

What about the WNBA, can you buy their jerseys do customization and irritate the NBA?
maybe. I've lived in Europe for a bit and it's a bit better but not to the point I feel safe everywhere during the night in cities(but at least I dont live in fear of getting hit by cars that much). And other than China I've mentioned I feel safe during night in Japan, Taiwan, or Singapore. Again I'm not sourcing any data here because it's just my personal experience of whether I'd feel safe in cities during night.

It's almost an insult to his legacy.

It should be named after a slow, cumbersome, finicky and controversial leader who occasionally brought things together, but only temporarily.

The reason is simple. If you are remote at an organization that isn't fully remote, it is quite apparent that you are basically a "second-class citizen" unless a large effort is made to include you in things. It's not as simple as saying that everyone should work how it works for them. If you have a large enough mass of people who are colocated, it has real impacts on remote workers.

(The converse is that if you push everyone to work in a way that accomodates remote workers, you probably deprive a lot of the people who prefer to be in the office of some of what they like about being in the office. I do think that the things that enable remote work -- documenting decisions, having good channels of communication and documenting things, etc. -- are beneficial for companies in the long run anyway, though.)

Emacs is free software, it's fun and easy to program, and it emits mostly plain text, which is trivial to integrate with other software.

Being "locked in" to a platform like that? Yes, please! It's vastly different from, say, Windows vendor lock, and it opens up possibilities instead of closing them off (especially since Emacs runs on nearly everything with a Von Neumann architecture and at least a 32-bit word size).

At my company, management has repeatedly said OKRs should target failure. So like if you think you can get a major feature set done in 15 weeks they want you to target 10.

I’m not a fan of it myself. The idea feels like growth hacking, but over many quarters it doesn’t feel great to always be falling short of goals. I always assumed this is part of the OKR model, but maybe it’s just my company.

All I'm trying to say is, it would seem logically and empirically, at least from your personal experience, that higher capital gains is associated with higher equity prices, because fewer people, including you, are selling.

Which means higher capital gains are, in an important sense, making you more money. That is totally and utterly surprising if our typical feelings about taxes are that they make us less wealthy. It is indeed possible that taxes make us more wealthy.
I saw "steerable" and was hoping they had wired something up the pleasure centers of the insect's brains so they they could steer them around like little RC vehicles. (nope... they can only point the camera)

I believe I saw somewhere they did that with rats. Fascinating, and yet so f'd up.
I'm really not a fan of "Electron for everything", but I don't understand this reaction. VS Code is quite good compared to a lot of the other apps build on Electron, so I'd not discard it just because of that.

> Their innovation is that they're selling an incompatible Chinese copy of JBC's system that's self-contained in the soldering iron and powered by a laptop power brick or USB-C.

The "specific problem domain" for Erlang is scalable, reliable network services.

The problem with GUIs is that making a simple UI is relatively easy, but making a really world class native UI is practically almost impossible. Witness the fact that even Microsoft is using Electron instead of writing native GUI code.

One of the really fundamental problems is that GUIs need to be done in the native language of the OS (e.g. C++), so any scripting language either needs glue like pyqt or to talk over a socket to a GUI, which limits performance.

Having said that, you can make ok GUIs in Erlang with the wx libraries, and there is Scenic for making custom UIs for e.g. embedded systems https://github.com/boydm/scenic

The Pinecil sounds interesting! I have a Antex Gascat 75P [0] propane powered soldering iron that I absolutely love! I keep it in my "primary" toolbag along with a few feet of Sparkfun's 0.020" "special blend" solder [1] (which is also excellent). It can be a bit finicky to ignite, but it heats up super-quickly and can be refilled easily from a common-or-garden propane refill.

I'll definitely have to try the Pinecil, even if it's just because "RISC-V!".

Another interpretation is that the system clearly incentivized the right things, because she decided to start a cafe and not do something unproductive and buy property?
Electronic payment mechanisms reduce friction, making it easy to spend money you wouldn’t otherwise, and lack adequate protections against inadvertent spending. This is why many vendors are happy to eat the 3-5% credit cards and online payment systems take — they make more overall. Guess where that’s coming from.

Easy to blame the parent. Could have give their child cash instead of a debit card. But that’s like the transportation industry building a highway with a massive hole in the middle of it and blaming drivers for driving into it.

I'm trying to grasp what's wrong with that. That statement is true for every set of system/values.

A set of systems won't work for 100% of the cases because that system was designed around a particular team. And there are times it won't work well.

Whether the system is good/effective has nothing to do with "you aren't doing it right" part.

The "you aren't doing it right" can be applied to literally everything.
This. Google seems to not have anyone with a cohesive vision or even anyone that knows how to build a platform or maintain a product. I personally would like to know what's going on with the product owners at Google, because it really seems like none of them talk to each other.

> I don't know how it ever became a legitimate thing to say but I keep seeing it used to brandish anybody, who's opinion is not completely in line with standard left ideology, as some sort of bigot in hiding.

To be absolutely clear: everything I've said (or asserted) as been liberal at most. Nothing about is is particularly left or left-leaning, regardless of my personal politics. This is an important distinction, especially in the context of reactionaries who like to bemoan the death of the West (which, of course, originated political liberalism).

> I don't agree so much with the parts you quoted but it should be obvious to a reasonable person that somebody could have those opinions and not be a white supremecist.

This is why they're dogwhistles. They exist in a space of plausible deniability, and only become obvious to those who (1) keep up with what reactionaries are doing, or (2) are themselves reactionaries.

Standing completely alone, they're merely concerning. With the other components attested in both the posts and this thread, they're clearly intended to signal fellowship with some reactionary group.

As a counterpoint I felt like when alphago came out I was surprised it took so long, because go really seems like a good use case for machine learning supremacy because 1) the go board looks particularly amenable to convey analysis and 2) it's abstract enough for humans to have missed critical strategies, even after centuries.

I wish I were on record on that, so take what I say with a grain of salt
