That's what I meant, but you're right, I wasn't entirely clear. Thanks.

That's a protection that neither social media nor the NYT (for comments) would have without Section 230 if they do any moderation (at least according to Stratton Oakmont, Inc. v. Prodigy Services Co.)

Good point about adding more info!

Idea is folks apply for help and I call up the phone/Internet company to verify and pay their bills with the funds donated from others.

All donations and payments would be viewable anonymously, and eventually tax deductible (need to go through that process).

We regularly scrape competitor websites to get insights on product availability and pricing. However, one of the competitors installed a script that gets us "Pardon our interruption". I guess it's because of bot detection. Unfortunately, that puppeteer plugin doesn't make it any different. We overcome this by using Oxylabs service. It's pricey but as long as you don't mind paying extra bucks (& got low frequency of scraping) you can use it as an alternative.

Kind of an interesting aggregation but Wikipedia is a lot of information to try and consume for a "brief history" I do like the tree view, but I don't like having to open up the different sections, I think I should be able to get what I'm looking for on the landing page. Also, and this is subjective but something about the UX makes it feel like an overwhelming amount of information, especially the health and environment section. I would want it to feel like something I could absorb in a few minutes.

How are you generating the trees?

I’m not sure where you got the impression that the problem I have with anti-abortion is ideology. The problem is moral: they want to force women to be pregnant against their will. What is there to discuss? What would it benefit women who don’t want to be forced to be pregnant against their will for me to consider it more? Who would it convince? Who is going “oh maybe I don’t want to force women to be pregnant against their will, but this guy is certain about it so I’m gonna have to go ahead and force them after all”?
Your quick impression based on your cursory Google search is likely very reasonable. But I think it's important to note that this (unintentionally) does a huge disservice to the person Tim has grown into since writing the Four Hour Work Week.

Apart from being an incredibly good, humble and thoughtful interviewer, as others have said, I would also encourage anyone unfamiliar with his more recent work to check out his output in the areas of depression, suicide, childhood abuse, psychedelics research, not to mention his later books and countless fascinating podcast interviews with some incredible people.

Whatever you may think of the 4HWW and the almost cult-like following that it inspired, I think that Tim Ferris is a bit of a force for good at this point in time, and quite unique in his ability to tackle any subject head on - even the hardest and most personal ones.

He has a vast audience, and his writings about his own deep personal struggles are incredibly valuable, and I'm sure will have done a lot of good for people in similar positions. This sort of material is hugely important, coming from someone with such a broad reach.

As an aside, I pre-ordered 4HWW prior to it's launch and did find it a very inspiring read as a 20-something wannabe entrepreneur. Everyone gets something different from that book, but I had read The E-myth prior to it, and saw a lot of it as reenforcement of the idea of trying to free up your time to work "on your business" and not "in your business". In that sense, I saw a lot of value in it. But I also understand the flip-side "outsource everything and go live on a beach" view of the book...

It's worth noting that he didn't do the beach thing himself though. He extracted himself quickly out of his day-to-day grind and freed up his time to spend on things that he was interested in, and work hard in high-leverage areas that he wanted to contribute to, on his terms.

No, it's really not. Haskell is a pain in the ass to program in. It's a language developed for mathematicians, not the real world. It makes the same mistakes as OpenCyc and expert systems.

I know assembly, C, C++, Scheme, Common Lisp, Python, MATLAB, C#, some D, some Javascript, some Mathematica. Programming in Haskell looks promising initially, but just drains all the joy and productivity out of my programming.
Simple is better. But "better" is also better. I'm not trying to make things more complex, we need to simplify our message if we want to change opinions at this time.

I'm settling on "brainwashed" for now. "Insane" colloquially removes the sense of responsibility and even has a positive connotation at times. Brainwashed captures the precise situation best.

Brainwashed individuals are still responsible for their actions. But we recognize the outside influence upon their actions. We can use the word brainwashed to recognize that these individuals still deserve punishment, but also recognize that there's a greater-source of influence we also must dismantle.

---------

The dude who has 10,000 edits on Wikipedia is "insane". A runner who completes 4:40 mile run is "insane". The mob who stormed the Capitol are BRAINWASHED.

"Brainwashed" fits better than "insane".

If you are concerned about the chilling effect of sites arbitrarily moderating user-generated content they find objectionable, just think about how much worse identity verification would be. Here on HN, people regularly create throwaway accounts so they can provide valuable insider accounts of things happening at companies where they work; that would never happen if they had to prove their identities first.

In fact, Twitter already does verify users for some accounts—that’s where the blue checks come from—and many of them are the most profligate misinformation peddlers. I think Twitter also requires new users to register with a phone number, and Google+ and Facebook both had/have real name policies, and none of that has done a thing to stem the flood of misinformation online.

For neck/back pain I highly recommend strength training - specifically focused on posterior chain exercises like deadlifts, squats (if you do not have any serious preexisting injuries preventing you doing them). Even you are unable to do those a good solid barbell strenght training program can work wonders. Anecdontal for me, but I find whenever I stop training my back/neck pain comes back.

Also important to move a few times a day if you are doing the kind of sitting work most of us do. I make sure that I take a 20-30 min walk before I start working and then at least 1 more time mid-day. This also helps a lot IMO
This is upside down.

We don't investigate innocent people for murder to placate an angry mob.

What we do is implement a communications strategy to get the mob to realize the random person is not guilty of murder.

The President is using the authority of his position to lie and misrepresent the issue, so we'll have to stop that somehow and get the proper message out.

There are no fundamental weaknesses in the system to the point wherein any organized attempt could flip the election - other than in the known grey areas which we fight about in public such as 'voter rolls' and how we purge them etc. There is ambiguity there.

But the voting itself is actually really credible. The 'voting machines' and ballot counting is probably the most impossible to defeat system.

Russians wanting to throw the election would have far more effect using Twitter and FB to incite crowds and to divide Americans, which is exactly what they have shown to be doing.

> ... But that's not the actual issue, the real issue is coordinated and targeted bans from 'Big Tech'. ...

Since this language is divisive and emotionally charged is there any evidence to back this up? Is there direct evidence of active coordination or, per Occam's Razor, was it simply a set of similar reactions in response to the same stimuli?

Objective cost surfaces have been around way longer than ml. It's been in the genetic algorithm lexicon for a long time, and more true to form, in stuff like actual potential energy diagrams of high dimensional degrees of freedom spaces in enzymology. Also having been a professional biochemist and worked in AI infrastructure, I know the commonalities well and know how to avoid faux-amis.

Note that this process is NOT backpropagation.

"The fact that it makes a lot of sense to use those terms hints that we might indeed be on the right track to building AGI and understnding the life itself in general"

Nope, it's a residual of the fact that AI stole ideas from other fields, and ran with the terminology as marketing. Sometimes even to the point of extreme divergence from the original ("neural" nets).

When a corporation is prospering without any actual greed being detectable in their operations, that can be some of the most reliable investments.

There should be plenty of money without that.

Some things have always been more legitimate than others.

You should ask for term length and then calculate the minimum monthly payment, because I don't have to look up the minimum monthly payment. I notice that "mortgage" account type is missing. I always think that credit cards are tough for things like this because it's such a moving target, you'll probably have to integrate with the banks. Also I guess this is mostly around the snowball method (as you said it was) but my interest is more in, what are the most efficient ways to pay off one or two large debts.
I completely agree with you and the article.

Strangely a lot of people look like to be missing critical thinking and to accept without discussion all the new restrictions on their free will as it is said that it is for their own good.

Strangely we are heading straight to an awful word that was described in science fiction books and movies years ago and most people don't even realize!
> I don't believe most conservatives agree with his rhetoric, they just like his policies for the most part. They probably don't even like him much, they just dislike the direction the democratic side is going enough to vote for him.

"I don't care for Hitler's rhetoric, I just voted for the Nazis because I think he has some good ideas about infrastructure and I like his jobs plan" doesn't exactly come across as sympathetic. Especially not after it becomes obvious where the trains are going.

If you're a conservative or a Republican who supports Trump for his politics alone, or because he was the R and you hate the D, the moral thing to do as of January 6 is to disavow Trump entirely, and look for another candidate who supports his views, or perhaps consider supporting a third party. Not to dig in and continue making excuses for him and his supporters.
The direct effect being that the bulk of the people on the other side of the isle lose the last shred of respect for these institutions, and switch to or create other sites, causing each side to become part of a permanent echo chamber with a mutually irreconcilable set of accepted facts that cause members of the different groups to come into violent disagreement whenever they encounter one another in physical reality.

I thought the goal was supposed to be to do something that reduced the probability of violent conflict?
to give another data point: I was given a project a couple weeks ago that was using visual studio solutions and opencv + contrib modules - I fighted 3 hours with making the .vcxprojs work on my machine before porting the whole shit to cmake in 15 minutes.

Using OpenCV was just a matter of

find_package(OpenCV 3.3.1 REQUIRED)
target_include_directories(theApp PUBLIC ${OpenCV_INCLUDE_DIRS})
target_link_libraries(theApp PUBLIC ${OpenCV_LIBS})

and everything worked, so I'm curious about what failed for you
> The point is this is all blown out of proportion simply because law makers themselves were involved.

Not entirely true. Much of it is just plain old politics. This was a massive unforced-error by the President, many of his supporters in congress, and his fanatical base.

Do you recall how many years we heard about Benghazi? How many hearings, investigations, and committees there were? This incident was objectively worse than Benghazi. If the Left were as good at offense as the right, this Jan. 6th attack on our government will be investigated, examined, dissected, and discussed incessantly for at least the next 4 years.

Are you learning guitar or ukulele and can never remember how to play a chord? Are you experienced with these instruments but looking to discover new chord shapes that you've never seen before?

It works with any custom tuning of a fretted string instrument. It also tells you what chord you're playing if you select your finger placement.

I built it entirely in Rust WASM using the Yew web framework as a way to see what it was like to do front-end web dev in Rust. I've enjoyed the experience much more than I ever have using js.

That's why I said typically, not always.
Note that closing </p> tags are optional†, so one can be an HTML purist and still write a decent HTML document with a relatively clean markup like this:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<title>Lorem Ipsum</title>
<h1>Lorem Ipsum</h1>
<p>
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.
Duis id maximus tortor. Sed nisi ante, fermentum vel nunc

tristique ipsum euismod laoreet.
<p>
Maecenas at neque posuere, aliquet erat at, vehicula est.
Duis aliquet elit et arcu laoreet, id pulvinar eros pretium.
Quisque consectetur, enim semper facilisis feugiat, velit

<p>
Curabitur fringilla interdum ante vel ultricies. Mauris
volutpat nisi sed turpis elementum elementum. Mauris nec

A valid HTML5 document does not require† explicit <head>, <body>, or the closing </p>, </html> tags. See the spec for optional tags at https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/syntax.html#optional-... for more details. Similarly, the markup for lists and tables can be cleaned up too because the closing </li>, </tr>, </th>, </td> tags are optional†.

Note that the opening <html> tag is optional† too but I retained it in the above example to specify the lang attribute otherwise the W3 markup validator warns, "Consider adding a lang attribute to the html start tag to declare the language of this document."

† These tags are optional provided certain conditions are met. See the spec for full details. In practice, one rarely has to worry about these conditions.

There are plenty of phrases used commonly in English too; that's usually not a problem. But it can make writing less effective if e.g. several unrelated situations are described by the same weak metaphor, or if the author's personal speech tics leak into dialog and several characters use the same unusual phrase.

In a few states, you can use an assault rifle for hunting deer.

But it only makes sense at really close range with excellent shot placement - anything less that is inhumane and causes the deer to suffer.

You can also verify this by checking the rifles that snipers use if they have a choice - it's never an assault rifle.

I was shocked when I saw that what percentage of car emissions are due to manufacturing. “Only”
driving a car for something like 100,000 miles doubles the per-mile carbon emissions. (I can’t remember the exact number.). EV’s have more embodied carbon, so they’re removing less than half the emissions in that part of their life.

This will drastically improve as the grid decarbonizes. However, we really should be focusing on swapping out the drive trains on 2000-2020’s most popular models.
