Yep, that's correct.

It's also just the start of the insanity. Google and FB also have to provide details of their ranking algorithms (and give 28 days notice of any upcoming changes). The law also only applies to Google and FB (not Twitter, not email, etc.) AND money only has to be given to News Corp. Not the ABC, SBS, etc.

There are plenty more 'WTF?' items in there, but it all boils down to Rupert Murdoch owning the government, and making them write laws to do his bidding.
The so-called V-speeds are calculated before takeoff; the 3 most prominent are V1 (the speed at which, during the takeoff roll, it is no longer safe to abort the takeoff, because you are going too fast. If anything goes wrong past this point, you continue the takeoff anyway), Vr (rotation, i.e. pulling the yoke/stick back, getting into the air), and V2 (the safe single-engine-failure climb-out speed).

Immediately before takeoff, the autothrottle is configured to maintain V2 speed; so no, an engine failure on takeoff is an event you are always already prepared for.

EDIT: For the 777 for example, and (that I know of) all other Boeing aircraft and probably Airbus too (but don't quote me on that), you can also see your V-speeds on the speed tape during the takeoff roll. This video shows them on the 777, they're the green numbers on the far left. The flight crew also calls them out. Finally, the green arrow pointing upwards or downwards is the projection of what your speed will be 10 seconds from now. Note how the programmed speed (top left, purple) is the V2 speed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uw9P-aMFYE0

One other factor is the cost of educating the work force has increased. This might not be due to an increase in the education requirements of the job market. If degrees are common place they get used as a proxy metric for who is capable and who is not (while this is often not the case).

This means it's hard to measure the effectiveness of the current student load system. Is the investment increasing productivity? Or just creating another hurdle for people to jump over to get a good job?
Framing the conversation as Google and Facebook directly taking revenue from newspapers isn't at all accurate, and just fuels public anger and laws like the one we are discussing.

The core problem is that people aren't buying newspapers and magazines anymore, instead getting their news online. Since there is no barrier to entry for online journalism, the space is dominated by low-effort clickbait and fake/sensationalist news. People prefer to consume all this for free instead of paying a reputable source.

Now, completely independent of all this, Facebook and Google have set up massive communities of users online and have perfected the art of monetizing them via ads. Regulating both these companies or removing them from the equation entirely (as they are planning to do themselves) does nothing to solve the news problem above.
The number of times I have been bitten by backspacing when I thought I was in a web form and in fact navigated to a previous page is high.

Predatory pricing is related, but it relates to a business selling something so low it drives competitors out of business.

So I suppose if that applies where you live, and you had a business selling only the low-margin type of item, and your competitor was selling below cost, then you'd have standing for action. I'm not sure if consumers ever get a say though outside of regulatory agencies like the ACCC.
As I said in my reply, more than "websites" https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24347370
Could you clarify what that's responding to? I don't see the connection to my point.
In my area, yes.

The offline to online flow increased greatly: e-commerce, digital marketing. E-wallets were once dumb ideas, but with contactless, they're suddenly a great idea. Lots of bureaucracy moved from paper to digital forms, and are taking the next step of integrating into a database and analyzing the data. Anything to do with remote work increased greatly, and that's all software engineering too. Plus things like games, online writing. I have a little site for writers and we've had increased traffic lately without any extra marketing.

On the other hand, a lot of businesses shut down or are slowing down, mainly the oil industry.
Exactly.
It's a perfect example of crony capitalism.

A political party in a symbiotic relationship with Murdoch (whose press outlets operate as the communications wing of the Coalition) eagerly pushes a rent-seeking law and claims it's about supporting journalism.

This is the same political party that does everything it can to defund public interest journalism (via the ABC and SBS), regularly gives indefensible grants to Murdoch, and has created a climate where police raids on journalists is the new normal.

The code deliberately excludes smaller publishers and the public broadcasters from any of this rent-seeking, and the ACCC in recent years has allowed significant media consolidation: allowing Murdoch to buy up most regional papers, and allowing Nine to buy Fairfax (Nine held a political fundraiser for that political party immediately after the election).

The state of journalism in Australia is dire, even compared to US and UK standards, and that's largely to do with intentional political acts.

Facebook and Google are in the right here.
It's really odd to me that the above was down-moderated. I don't agree with it either but it seems a very valid perspective. What am I missing?
It's a little different, in that Amazon Flex isn't a two-sided market. But similar? Certainly.
Oh cmon, 16mph difference in top speed is still "much the same".

Yves Rossy's wing: Optimized for forward flight, has VTOL capability, bulky.

Zapata's flyboard: Good middle ground, VTOL with decent speed, restricts ground movement.

Gravity jetsuit: Optimized for hovering, lightweight, can walk in it.

They're all doing much the same thing though, strap some jets onto a human and allow them to fly with VTOL.
Which is to say Disney stopped the theatre from showing the movie. The reason the theatre couldn't show the movie is because Disney wouldn't allow it to do so.
Perhaps part of the reason those professionals are more expensive is that their degree programs saddle them with debt!

> Yes, except with social relationships, exactly the opposite things are of value. You want to be as exclusive as possible with the other person, so that you both have as much of other's attention as possible. Otherwise, what's the point?

Wait what?

That's definitely not true for non romantic relationships. Even in the context of a traditional monogomous romantic relationships that sounds incredibly unhealthy.

Anyways i disagree generally. People don't spend $$$ on backstage concert tickets because they want to blend into the crowd. I have no idea what goes on at onlyfans, but i doubt people use it as a literal replacement for in person interaction in the same way i doubt strip clubs, brothel's, etc are used by their patrons solely to replace "normal" socisl interaction.

I feel like this metaphor fails at all points.

Perfectly aligns interests of student and university: creates annual recurring revenue from all students, if student pays tax to IRS portion goes to university. Since US taxes world income, this ensures university is reimbursed.

This is such a silly claim. There have been a handful of cases of white supremacists managed to get hired. Out of 800,000 cops. Terrorists, spies, and gang members manage to join government agencies and the military as well.

Also, if you don’t know how many bad cops there are, and you don’t know how many good cops there are, and you have no clue how many good cops report on bad cops, you can’t even begin to make that claim. You’re just being an “ACAB” guy, despite the fact that you desperately need police.
Not an expert in ML, but I don’t think CUDA uses SLI at all.

SLI is specific to rendering. Depending on the workload, it’s sometimes makes perfect sense to split GPGPU jobs into multiple GPUs. An extreme example of that approach is crypto-currency miners who sometimes use a dozen of GPUs in a single computer.

The only limitation, the working set used by each GPU needs to fit in VRAM of that GPU, otherwise GPUs gonna bottleneck on I/O as opposed to compute, will be very slow. For ML, this means the setup of two 3080 GPUs will be limited to 10GB model sizes.
I don't know, I bet plenty of people are feeling lonely when they go out for some entertainment and that entertainment makes them feel less lonely. I don't see why that's such a bad thing.

I recently supported the new Patreon page created by a podcast host who I have been listening to for over 10 years. He sent all his supporters a short personalized video, and watching that video gave me the feeling of an authentic personal connection. Of course there's no deception going on here, I do believe that he genuinely appreciates my (very small financial) support, but there's no expectation that we're now "actually friends" in the traditional sense (he has hundreds of supporters). But still, it's a nice feeling of personal connection, and it doesn't feel like an indictment of major social problems plaguing society (other than perhaps the obvious lockdown-associated reduction in human contact).

Of course, in my example there's nothing remotely flirtatious or sexual going on, which as I understand it is common on OnlyFans. Maybe that detail makes it completely unlike my example, but it really doesn't feel that different to me.
Unfortunately, lots of people don't cite news articles at all. They just post memes.

But for people who do want to post a news article, it seems like there are lots of workarounds, like quoting and citing, or an indirect link through Twitter.

It will be a question of how smart Facebook is about blocking stuff. I'd guess they wouldn't be any smarter than they have to be to maintain plausible deniability.

> wearing these face masks may produce a false sense of protection

However, it is important to note that seat belts from ropes, seat belts from cotton strings, and seat belts from elastic bands offer very little protection when compared to a properly tested and fitted seat belt, and wearing these seat belts may produce a false sense of protection (resulting in no avoidance of speeding or driving too closely to the person in front of you, the best general public guidance we currently have to avoid corporal damage from car crashes).

I suspect privacy would be better served by taking the approach of the security domain with responsible disclosure to vendors and a concerted effort to attack the problem holistically. Until then we’re just giving privacy attackers a heads up and by the time this issue is mitigated their onto the next avenue for bypassing privacy.
If they just did it, that would be less childish.

Right now they're telling everyone in Oz their internet is at risk and responding with an ultimatum just for show. (And public support?) I'd hope they have someone discussing the actual issues with the relevant government people.

I mean, the law is stupid enough that both Google and FB can respond with specific issues they have.
Just don’t conduct operations in those jurisdictions then.
The value in your example is still subjective. What is the ratio of Bananas to Apples that is being traded and how much is being produced? While both are certainly willing to keep trading indefinitely, and to not do so would be catastrophic, but the actual price being paid is very subjective to the market players.

Facebook is undoubtably the scummiest company of our generation, but this is the correct and only response here.

A lawyer could be disbarred for lying to a judge, but in practice it is extremely infrequent that lawyers are disbarred, even for relatively severe misconduct. I also personally think that the standards for what constitutes misconduct should be more broad, and should extend to cover bad faith use of the legal system for purposes other than seeking legal rulings, like harassing people or wasting their time or money. The existence of default judgements, where the defendant has to appear and present a defense or be found responsible in even the most flagrantly illegitimate of cases incentivizes lawyers to carry out filings in bad faith.

For example, lawyers in the US routinely file or threaten to file defamation suits in scenarios where the law is clear that no defamation has occurred. I feel that in such situations the most charitable interpretation is that the lawyer is an idiot, and the less charitable interpretation is that the lawyer is a criminal. When a judge considers and ultimately dismisses such a suit, two options present themselves. Either the lawyer is so incompetent as to think that the suit had legitimate grounds, in which case they should lose the ability to file such suits, or the lawyer is maliciously exploiting the legal system for the purpose of harassment, and should similarly lose the ability to file such suits. The fact that judges largely refrain from sanctioning lawyers for even the most severe misconduct results in a world where wealthy individuals are frequently able to use the legal system or the threat of the legal system to harass individuals like journalists into not discussing their activities that are of public interest.

A similar example manifests in patent law, where patent trolls can pursue expensive sham litigation with impunity, to the extent that an entire market exists based on shaking companies down by threatening legal action and offering a settlement for less than the company will have to pay in legal fees to eventually prevail against the sham accusation.
LZ4 seems really nice for data with a lot of repetition, but not having any symbolic entropy encoder can really kill the compression for some data. I often default to LZ4, and used to fall back to gzip if that doesn't work well, but I've been really impressed with zstd. It's not as commonly used, but if I'm not concerned about interoperability, I'll be trying to use a lot more zstd.
