Woah I have heard of the Mews, but had no idea about the "incel" connection.

That feels mostly like a distraction to me. Here are some related HN links, nothing to do with "incels".

I recommend reading "Jaws" by Kahn and "Breath" by Nestor. Both of them mention John Mew. He was an early advocate of the harmful effects of certain orthodontic practices on breathing. Sometimes the problem doesn't show up for decades.

Candy Crush has 250-275 million active users. Do some digging if you want an accurate picture. Saying this game or that game counts shows a willful choice to not engage in the conversation, and perhaps a fundamental lack of understanding as to what constitutes a video game.
There are still hunter-gatherer populations of humans who have the same lifestyle as they did 10 thousand years ago. Wouldn't studying their skulls settle this debate?
Tried a GPT-3 completion:

> At the party, I poured myself a glass of lemonade, but it turned out to be too sour, so I added a little sugar. I didn’t see a spoon handy, so I stirred it with a cigarette. But that turned out to be a bad idea because ...

> ... the cigarette burned a hole in the tablecloth. I didn’t have another one, so I used my finger to stir it and then licked my finger.

> After that, I went into the living room where everyone was dancing. They were all dressed up—even the dog—but they sure could dance! And they looked like they were having fun. But when I tried to join them, they wouldn’t let me because I wasn’t wearing shoes or socks.

> I went back into the kitchen to get a drink. But when I turned on the water, it sprayed all over me and my clothes got soaked. So I took off all my clothes and put them in the dryer. But then I realized that there was no more room in the dryer for anyone else’s clothes, so we had to take everything out of it and hang it up to dry.

Seems pretty reasonable to me.
they totally will... but it's probably going to show up the way you would expect it to... some open source project will get really good at helping you configure 95% of your app with a CLI or something... then you'll mod some methods etc. Eventually that will transform into something that can predict what you'll need.

IMO stuff like serverless, OpenAPI, some of the boilerplates out there, etc are already heading in that direction. It used to take me a week to build a standard CRUD API with a handful of models, now I can do it circa 15-30min.

I still have Sun Microsystems stock certificates, purchased in ~1999. They are more valuable as curiosities or as recycled paper than as a tradeable security.

Yes, let’s just steal their dead and remove their skulls. Sounds wonderful.
The article (like many others) distinguish between easy NAT (endpoint-independent) and hard NAT (endpoint-dependent symmetric NAT), but does not discuss how real-world NAT devices behave (whether they are predominantly easy NATs or hard NATs).

In reality, home routers are generally Linux-based and share netfilter NAT implementation. And how this implementation behaves? Well, it is a symmetric NAT masquerading as a port-restricted cone NAT. While it is symmetric NAT, it tries to reuse internal port as external port, and therefore often ends with the same port on different NAT mappings to different external machines.

Therefore, NAT traversal often works by accident in simple cases, but suddenly stops to work when it becames more complicated (e.g. when two clients behind a NAT try to connect to the same server).

Linux netfilter has an option to randomize ports in NAT mappings to avoid this appearance of working, but it is unlikely that home routers allow to configure this.
So to confirm what you have in mind:

That's a physical device with all computation and information local?

And you'd pay for an upfront cost of the device as well as a subscription?

What comes with the subscription? Updated data, new features? Just keeping the lights on?
Co-opted, rather than developed, but that's a minor detail.
I just want to say I'm shocked a community who's supposed to be as technologically adept as HN still "doesn't get it". I have no intention or interest in changing anyone's mind...if you know, you know.
Maybe, but supermarkets also throw away a lot of food and restaurants are more consistent in their weekly ordering and usage than individuals. Also, at least in NYC, many of the restaurants donate their unused product. And individuals have to buy individually wrapped products using more packaging than restaurants. Does anyone know for if cooking from home creates less or more overall waste?

Information distributors do more than influence elections, they completely control them.

Walter Cronkite impeached Nixon, Pulitzer and Hearst started the Spanish-American war, and FAANG companies, directly or indirectly, nudge the needle on elections. I don't see how Google is unique or notable in this regard.
Dentistry seems like an extremely conservative profession, and one that received very little attention from outsiders. This story definitely makes me wonder if there are still a lot of "low hanging fruit" in dentistry that have been left unexplored.

It does seem rather strange that nearly be 100% of parents are told that their kids' mouths are terribly messed up and need expensive procedures. Never are parents offered any convincing scientific explanation for why everyone's mouth seems to go counter to all the usual biological rules of evolutionary adaptation.
I live in Boston exurbs and the once or twice I've needed a "taxi" I was able to get an Uber (from not a lot of choices during the day) but there weren't any Lyfts available. So, yes, ride-share can get pretty thin on the ground once you get out of cities.

In normal times, I don't even try to use them for airport trips; just book a private car.
>that somehow, we can make it better, more suitable for us.

I think the mistake Google is making is not charging high prices a la. Apple for their products. It'd result in a big drop in user base initially but over time people will respect it more and stop writing up articles on how to stop using a free ad supported product in favor of a set of random toy projects
It's the same reason anti fascist turned into antifa. I think at least the majority of people are anti fascist. But cutting it down to a meaningless word turns the word itself into a weapon to be used to bludgeon.
> In rural or suburban areas, cost and wait times will explode,

Utilization of ridesharing in rural areas is low[1]. It's a mode of transportation mostly used by urban affluent individuals with plenty of expendable income and as far as other reasons are concerned internet and credit card access trump any sort of supply problem.

"Suzanne Ashe was once the only Uber driver in Haines, Alaska — population 1,374 — and said she kept getting kicked off the platform because there weren’t enough people asking for rides. She also found that some places weren’t on Uber’s maps, so clients couldn’t enter their destination, and internet could be spotty.
For these reasons, Ashe quit Uber and started her own ride-hailing business called Red Cab, named for her 2010 Red Chevy HHR, the only car in her “company.” She charges a flat rate of $10 per ride and $30 per hour. “In order to cater to rural areas, especially areas where there isn’t a saturation of network, then a cab company makes a lot more sense,” she told Chilkat Valley News."

It seems to have become fashionable to rush to Ubers defense by framing it as some sort of necessary mode of transportation for the undersupplied when instead every piece of data suggests the opposite. It's luxury transportation for the upper middle-class on the back of disenfranchised metropolitan army of reserve labour.

Read the last paras. The unanswered question is much more interesting than the stuff about Mews: How do orthodox orthodontists answer the anthrpologist?
Oh thanks, we'll edit that in
Just because something doesn’t display understanding by responding to your expectation doesn’t mean it doesn’t possess understanding . If you ran into my office with these prompts, the response to each would be “what the hell are you doing in my office?” All behavior is contextualized, and GPT-3’s native context is predicting continuous text, not answering questions.

It’s a distracting anthropomorphism to even attempt ascribing “understanding” to a model like GPT-3. An assessment of its useful capabilities should be through an honest effort to get it to do something - and should of course include consideration of the effort/intelligence required to do so. Marcus knows enough to know this set up is inappropriate, so the article reads as disingenuous.
Uhh... Digging more Mars holes is a lot better than cutting down trees.

No, we care when those companies are giant multinational monopolies.

Think of it this way. I walk into a mom & pop clothing store, and one of the sales people on the floor takes note into a little pad the items of clothing I touched, so that they might optimise their purchasing.

Contrast that to one person from one of the worlds largest companies, following me at home, work, the shops, the pub, the bedroom, tallying up all the things I do so that they might broker that information to commercial interests, or more nefariously, to further cement their choke-hold on the ever-increasing industries which they've a financial stake in.

One of those situations is clever business, the other is an Orwellian hellscape.

I'll take every opportunity I can to rid myself of that second pursuer, thank you very much.
Decisions can only be evaluated in the context in which they were made.

A friend invested much of his savings equally in ~5 promising Seattle-area businesses in the early 2000s. Four went to zero, one was AMZN. Had he chosen only slightly differently, five might have gone to zero.
And then there’s the saying in ERP systems: “You buy SAP and then you change your company to fit SAP”.
The thought of arbitrary shutdown and their 'legendary' customer service got me moving off Google services. I started with Runbox using my own domains, which works well though some emails just never got delivered. I'm now on a combination of Runbox, Mailo, and Mailbox.org with long-term prepaid plans and I'm satisfied - I'll probably prune at some point but the prices are so reasonable that the urgency to do so is not there. Support by Mailo and Runbox has been excellent.
Depending on what I buy it is. Exhaust for cars are often drop shipped. Ordering something from a major exhaust company can be a nightmare, ordering from a drop shipper streamlines the process and I can just hop on eBay and not need to make an account with Borla for example, call them, payment details, etc.
I hate this concept that blaming these young adults for being irresponsible is wrong because we should have know the students would be irresponsible.

Sure, it’s predictable, but that does zero to absolve the students. It just means that the admins are to blame also. They’re clearly hoping that holding rule breakers accountable will lead to other students rising to the challenge. It’s obvious that, before you punish/suspend/expel a bunch of them, they’ll act as normal. It remains to be seen what they’ll do afterwards.
Film photography.
I hate analogies... but this is like the prison warden intentionally leaving the gates to the prison wide open, and then absolving themselves of all responsibility when the prisoners inevitably escape by saying, "well, the prisoners oughta have known not to escape".

No, you knew what you were doing and what the consequences would be.

As the other commenter hinted, Siem Reap is a great place for expats, and that’s where I lived as well. The population is much more poor than the surrounding countries, but they are all so incredibly friendly and happy despite all this. You do need to make an effort really going into the country side to see the “real” Cambodia, I strongly advise against using only the cities as your reference, as they are generally very “tourist/expat savvy”, by lack of a different definition.

I did freelance work for a few European businesses, mostly C++ and devops stuff, and for a long time I felt I was living the life. What drew me back, however, was ambition: before taking the sabbatical, I had successfully founded and “exited” (more like an acqui-hire with some pocket money) a startup, and I was craving for more. It was very difficult to find people that I could consider my peers in Siem Reap, and this left some void. This may also have to do with my nature as an introvert, they may have been out there, but most developers out there actually are web developers, which isn’t my cup of tea.

All in all, however, the whole experience of being completely detached from my life back home for an extended period of time has made me a much more stable person, and I would do it again in a blink of an eye. As crazy as it sounds, I can now better appreciate the “rat race” and its good parts, and know that I also miss being challenged in that area.

Feel free to reach out to me directly if you feel like it.

In either case I still bought my slacks from the clothing store, my pint from the tavern, and slept soundly in my bed. You object to the company having your information, I object to it being used to impact my life. I don't give a damn about them just having it.

And thus my question, how does this affect my life?
Try a different terminal. It does that for me in URxvt, but works fine in xterm.
For me, TPB became irrelevant once high-speed broadband and cheap multi-terabyte storage became available. Today (and really for the past decade) there is no reason not to torrent full-size Blu-ray images or remuxes, but TPB never abandoned an overall culture of sharing only small-size and usually low-resolution transcodes.

In a sane world we would already have webviews on all platforms and the problem mostly solved for client applications. But there's a lot of forces at work that want to artificially suppress web UI. Chromium doesn't have webview on desktop platforms, but Microsoft's chromium edge does. Apple puts in their special restrictions making up rules for any app that uses wkwebview.

Nobody with the power wants to make webUI universally deployable.

At the end of the day you choose one that you'll actually deploy something with. There's no more right or wrong in UI, it's can you get to the goal of deploying a functional app or not.
What business model are you referring to? As far as I can tell they reduced prices mostly by (1) keeping wages as low as possible, and (2) by using their gatekeeper position to put their suppliers under pressure. I wouldn't call this an innovation. Also they improved their logistics, but I wouldn't consider this part of a business model.
Note that these polls are of Likely Voters. A big source of systematic error in 2016 state polls was Likely Voter models, used to weight raw poll results by voting propensity. In the Midwest in 2016, lots of people without college degrees said they preferred Trump - but based on previous elections, pollsters expected few would vote. This kind of shift is hard to predict - pollsters do not intend to make the same mistake again, but they might make another. (National polls are much less noisy because these kinds of regional errors often cancel out when averaged over the country.)
Exactly. If they are too immature to be expected to follow the safety rules, why are they still allowed to vote? Adulthood comes with responsibilities as well as privileges.
Apple Arcade explicitly forbids any in-purchases or ads. So not sure if we can compare a subscription service to a marketplace like App Store.

This is a good thing. I hope Apple Arcade completely turns people against games with in app purchases and ads. Just like Netflix has turned people against ads and encouraged people to pay for content. This may also make room for non slimy indy developers.

it is unlikely Apple or anyone else starting a market place will continue to pay once the market is large enough

If the market grows large enough that developers can convince people to pay for content one time and no ads or in game purchases - that sounds like a win.
I guess that explains why I was under the impression the project was being shuttered after reading the comments, but not the actual post yet.

The actual forum post just says they don't know anything about the future of DeepSpeech yet, for those doing the same.
Another note against C is that while very few students will die (~12 at a 40,000 student campus if they all get it and it has an IFR of 0.03% for people 18-25, ~2 if the IFR is closer to 0.01% and half the students get it - either way comparable to the normal number of student deaths. The chance that a 20 year old American dies in the next year is around 0.1%, after all), administrators/professors are older and thus at greatly increased risk.
According to many long-time flight simmers, the performance of this title is about the same as previous ones, with the addition of 10x improved graphics. So that's why they don't care and you're getting downvoted on Reddit.

Expect to require a 3xxx series graphics card for good performance.
This can be seen two ways. Yes, the specialization of service and products for a particular illness has a cost associated with it. But, the cost of specialization is within the field not the direct cost of the insurer. The availability of many treatments/products does not directly relate to cost burden of the insurer as the cost is proportional to customer need. Increasing markets are most likely passed proportionally to the consumer based on risk.

The net increased of cost could be seen as a decentralized cost over their entire customer base. The question is... if the insurer is taking a relative percentage for each dollar passed between the insurer and healthcare industry then, maintaining a higher volume of expenses is proportional to their profit. (This would be dependent on a fairly non-elastic demand of people buying insurance). There might also be regulation associated to the maximum amount of profit they can make relative to the actual amount used to cover their customers. If that's the case, then more money spent is probably more money earned.
I highly doubt the international market would have made a lick of difference for a service only accessible in a city in the middle of Texas. Not saying there weren't some international visitors who may have used it, but in the grand scheme of things that's a drop in the bucket.
Some years ago I ran across someone's research based on some Google book scanning technology reporting on the fantastic number of instances on f()ck in books prior to the 20th century. This is simply not true. The problem was the scanning technology which interpreted the old elongated S type face in old books as F.

So do 538 and The Economist try to take these polls, back out their biases, and reapply different ones? Or, to borrow a phrase from Trump, "unskew" them?
It's not unique in this regard, therefore it doesn't matter? Is that your argument?

Also, comparing the relative power of newspaper men to Google doesn't make much sense.
