It’s an analysis of what I’ve seen.

People hate Biden for stances he has in the past and they bring them up regularly.

Same with Harris.

People are thrown in prison for decades to keep them away from everyone and then they’re denied jobs on then basis that they were once a criminal.

People mocked John Kerry on the very basis that he _did_ change his mind on an issue, and so on.

The very basis of a lot of relationship advice on Reddit, at least, is that “people never change”, therefore ‘you should dump the person’.

I’m sure that if you asked a person about a specific person that they know and have known, they’ll say how this person isn’t the person they were; but then that same person will go on and talk about someone they don’t in absolute terms about how a change is not genuine or cannot happen.

I don’t have sources, I’m sorry, just life experience and an attempt to understand the world I live in.
> I can't say that I know enough about that part of WWII, but yeah I agree with that statement. Which isn't to say that it applies here. Simply pointing out that stripping out context can lead to false equivalences is lazy, it needs to be shown.

Well, the key part is that the Axis was centered on the imperial ambitions of a a famous genocidal dictatorship that you've probably heard of. There's pretty much a unanimous consensus that that dictatorship was very, very bad and its allies were not much better.

Regarding the recent violence, here the context:

1. BLM is mainly against the police's pattern disproportionate killing of black people, often unarmed, and racism in general. While there had been looting and rioting, it's worth noting that from the very beginning there's evidence that these protests were actually infiltrated by violent agitators with other aims (e.g. https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/illinois-man-accused-o... and https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/oct/23/texas-boogaloo...).

2. The capitol attack was literally against the results of a free and fair election, and deliberately attacked some of the actual institutions of American democracy. There's also no evidence of infiltration, though such claims are now being made to deflect blame. And the riots often loudly expressed violent aims (e.g. erecting a literal gallows and chanting "Hang Mike Pence" https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/hang-mike-pence-chant-capi...).

Performance on Linux is pretty nice - until I open more than a
handful of tabs, which then leads to the computer spending more
time swapping memory than anything else. Which is probably fine
for the majority of users, but kind of a dealbreaker for me. And
I don't plan on expanding memory just for the browser.
>outside of videogames autogenerated content turns me off (and sometimes even in videogames, you can tell if something was handcrafted or autogenerated). If the way to make animé "survive" means removing meaningful human authorial input, then maybe it's best if it dies?

Everything is broken: https://www.unadulterated-faff.com/assets/everything-is-brok...

I guess we can safely add journalism and the open web to the author's pet list of broken institutions.

> Give up on our current institutions; they already gave up on us.

> Sometimes the task of rebuilding—of accepting what has been broken and making things anew—is so daunting that it can almost feel easier to believe it can’t be done. But it can.

I can't really tell what (if anything...) actionable we the audience are supposed to take from this article. "Give up on your old institutions and build new ones!" is not exactly actionable without profound bloodshed, which I think is unlikely to be what the author wants.

I can't understand why these platforms are being treated just like any other private company to be honest.

These companies openly take billions of dollars in government subsidies and tax breaks, most of them have one or more contracts with the US government, several of them received funding from the government during their early days, without which, there's a chance they may not be the giants they are today.

How much money should tax payers continue funding these massive corporations before they should finally get a say in their actions?

These companies willingly accept these billions of dollars, wllingly chose to put themselves in the position of being the 'new town square', then they hide behind the 'nope private company' argument.

All I know is, when I was working off government subsidies and grants years ago, i was publically accountable for anything we did and we had far less public impact than any of these companies.

People can argue laws and semantics all they want, but what will it actually take for people to actually recognize the power these companies have over nearly every aspect of modern life and stop just treating them as

'Any other private company'.

That's an excuse and as far as i'm concerned a completely bullshit one. It's very obvious that's not the case and how anyone can deny this is mind boggling to me.

My understanding is the reorder buffer of the m1 is particularly large:

"A +-630 deep ROB is an immensely huge out-of-order window for Apple’s new core, as it vastly outclasses any other design in the industry. Intel’s Sunny Cove and Willow Cove cores are the second-most “deep” OOO designs out there with a 352 ROB structure, while AMD’s newest Zen3 core makes due with 256 entries, and recent Arm designs such as the Cortex-X1 feature a 224 structure."

The tone of the article conveys agreement with the intervention.

For instance, the closing remark "in both cases, private business had to step in when the consequences became evident" could be rendered neutrally as "in both cases, private businesses stepped in when the consequences became evident."

"Had to step in" has the effect of defending the actions, by insinuating that they had no alternative.
It’s 100% in my experience. I don’t think anyone I know would hear a car alarm and think someone is stealing a car. They would ignore it if it isn’t their alarm, cussing out the owner of the car for causing a disturbance, or cuss themselves out for accidentally hitting the button on the remote.
I’m just getting into making RPGs and I was using Joplin. Switched to Zettlr for the linking and file folder == a project paradigm. What are you using? I was hoping to use the PHP based command line tool Ibis to convert to PDF but in order to auto-generate a table of contents I’d need to have way too much white space after each section. Ideally I could change the output formatting with a CSS file.
We're trying to represent a diverse set of people and industries by dividing them into a false binary partitioned by largely arbitrary state lines, many of which were defined over 200 years ago, and leaving the vote for the presidency up to a tiny fraction of the population in a few of those arbitrary partitions. How is that equal or equitable? All states have some combination of rural, urban, and all the shades of gray in-between. Texas has Austin, Massachusetts is over half rural, NY is a Blue state that's mostly Red by area. Why should someone's vote have no weight because of where they live? I'm not saying that a popular vote would be perfect, I'm just saying that the Electoral College is absurd.
As arguments go, that one is unpersuasive:

1) People still can't feed themselves and go homeless, countries that have inflationary policy sill generally have well developed welfare policy. It also isn't obvious that purposefully increasing the price of food and housing is helping, the bar of evidence for such an unintuitive claim is higher than "it's just obvious, trust me".

2) There was a different monetary system in the early 1900s. The lessons learned about it might not apply to a fiat system. Lending, credit & and the nature of money all work differently now.

3) If the problem was wild swings, then the lessons to be learned were in how to moderate the booms. There needs to be a bit more explanation about how increasing the money supply does that, and whether it dampens the booms more than it helps the busts. Smoothing the cycle is a mistake if it lowers trend growth.

4) Lack of evidence cited. "we discovered" is handwaving the important part. I suspect that is like "discovering" means in the political sense where politicians lie about something obvious as cover for a policy that they want.

5) Ignoring technological innovation and all the oil that has been used over the last 100 years. It is likely that the dramatic reduction in human suffering is totally unrelated to inflation policy.
Mozilla promised us Tor integration, IPFS integration and more private browsing by default. Brave delivered it all.
>That alone breaks the dictatorship analogy.

It does not when you factor in their appears to be power mod users who moderate multiple subreddits and have power over most of the site now. Your assumption also assumes that this isn't a site wide issue and going to another subreddit solves this.

Again, the fact that power user mods exist ruins that claim for you. Also, the fact that this power tripping seems to be a norm across much of the site now also shows this is not the case.

Are there still some subs that don't have this abuse? Yes. But is it clear at this point the model that reddit is using is open for abuse and eventually it seems many (if not most) subreddits eventually fall into this abuse problem? Yes.

Hi HN,
My name's John and I'm a co-founder of Aesthetic. Our team spent 2 years running a design agency to understand what parts of the design process could (and should) be automated, and realized that designers spend a lot of time copy/pasting content into design templates. We thought their had to be a better way to do this with technology, so we built the V1 of Aesthetic, which is free for anyone to use as of today.

When a user enters a link to our platform, we're crawling the page for all of its meta data, and then using any Schema.org, Open Graph or Title tag markup as props that we interpolate into a series of React components. While this version of the app is limited to just working with web-based content via our app, we're going to be launch our API and enable users to plug in any dynamic content source as well as import their own templates for use.

We're excited to get this into the hands of the HN community for feedback and in hopes this can be helpful in automating people's marketing workflows today.

Thanks!
John Milinovich

While I am against DMCAs I find it amusing to be honest, it is kinda like karma. The nyaa.si people commonly engaged in censorship of their issue tracker at github (even if all parties were polite and the issue was closed they ended up locking and deleting issues afterwards). In addition in their early days they engaged in a "fake news" campaign against the other nyaa clone (nyaa.si is a clone of the original nyaa). Finally they never provided their database to the public, so if it dies or if someone wants to make another clone they have to scrape the whole site. (there was a lot of drama when the original nyaa died because nobody had an updated database and they had to work with an outdated one. The other nyaa clone offered a copy of its database. When I asked one of the members of nyaa.si I was offered a pathetic excuse on how it would be too hard to write an sql query).

And to be honest the nyaa.si devs would not care about this whole thing at all. They admitted that they published the code to github because they were tired of the "foss nerds" whining.

No it is not underrated. It is just that frugal entrepreneurs are frugal about their comments too :)

Jokes aside. It is just not hip to talk about being frugal. You will get media attention if you say you spent million dollars on interior of your startup. That will not happen if you say you bought low-cost or second-hand furniture for your startup. Most long running successful startup founders are frugal. Quitely build the company with minimum financial overhead. The news about "non-frugality" from startups is mostly for PR purpose. If it is not, then it is stupidity on the part of the founder(s).
If you trust an OSS project enough to actively contribute to it, it stands to reason that you might also trust the maintainers with the ability to relicense the project as necessary in order to foster its growth and protect it from abuse.

My distinction is that I don’t think they are being abused. They want to build a business around an open source tool just like AWS wants to also build a business around an open source tool.

I am happy to let them compete to see who can offer the best value.
When GRE math is as easy as middle school math in China, is this really a surprise?
The BK bumper car game has turned into a weird little christmas tradition in my family. Actually a very fun, easy-to-learn/hard-ish-to-master game (basically 2D Rocket League)
I've owned a car in a city, a high density suburb, and a low density suburb (all USA). I had the one non-alarmed car as a teenager in the low density suburb. It was broken into in the quiet residential driveway. In the city and the high density suburb, I have only ever had false alarms.

Maybe the answer is to give the user the option to arm the alarm or not when exiting, with equal friction (i.e. separate "lock" and "lock+arm" buttons on both the door and the fob).

Maybe they would still be around in some form, yes, although the mass market advantages of x86 would still have killed of the traditional RISC Unix workstation market etc.

OTOH maybe eventually most people would have switched to FreeBSD (or whatever free *BSD would have been the "mainstream" choice), just like they switched to Linux in our universe, since they thought that whatever value add provided by some proprietary unix wasn't worth it anymore.

In a hypothetical copyleft-free universe, sure, there would be a lot more companies using OSS to create proprietary products without having to think about what is a derivative work, linking and distribution restrictions. OTOH all those proprietary companies playing the "commodify your complement" game against each other would ensure that the quantity and quantity of OSS would continually be increasing as well, forcing those companies to continually innovate lest they lose their market to the free OSS alternatives. To repeat, hypothetically speaking, as we don't have an alternate universe to run such experiments in.

Actually, despite saying they're a channel, I don't think access to a targeted advertising channel is a right. Taking it to an absurd level, is it something that the government should provide? I'd prefer to see it abolished.
I have recently seen various calls to take a stand as software developers and scientists, to oppose the abusive uses of technology. But the problem is that people don't agree on what is good or bad, no matter what position you take there are always going to be issues.

And the second problem is that a discovery or invention takes a life of its own and doesn't remain subject to the will of its creator.
Tried Brave in the past. I liked it fine but didn't have a practical reason for it. Now I do and will be switching promptly.

State charts avoid that problem to some extent, you don't explode the number of state like in a simple finite state machine. But that's a point where you certainly want to use a library.
Better than nothing I suppose but I'm afraid it's not even close to the real thing (for me)
I wonder to what extent that's a consequence of Apple embracing reference counting (Swift/Objective C with ARC) while Google being stuck on GC (Java)?

I'm a huge fan of OCaml, Java and Python (RC but with cyclic garbage collection), and RC very likely incurs more developer headache and more bugs, but at the end of the day, that's just a question of upfront investment, and in the long run it seems to pay off - it's pretty hard for me to deny that pretty much all GC software is slow (or singlethreaded).
I wouldn't put MDs on such a high pedestal. They're people who specialize, just like people in many other professions, and having little knowledge of statistics beyond an (oft-forgotten) undergraduate-level course wouldn't surprise me. It's a different story for doctors who go the research route rather than practicing medicine, of course.
First, your probably right and i may/really have missed the point.

Regarding dummy arrays, you can just generate random arrays of complex values, that should normally not cause issues (although obviously the filter does not converge to anything). The size I used for the demo is (2, 200 000), i.e. 2 polarisations and 100 000 symbols 2 times oversampled

That's a good point. They probably want their own Github as much to control it but also so they won't suffer consequences from embargos like when Iran was blocked just recently
As a Muslim, this is a little scary, and it's not GPT-3 specific. GPT-3 is picking up and reflecting biases in the content that's out there, and it's doing so deeply enough that it can do it "creatively".

Historically, Thinkpads have had excellent support. My T430S is great (although definitely aging out), and apparently the new X1 Carbons still work well. Also, both Dell and Lenovo have models that come with Linux if desired, so those are probably good ones to look at.

Curious, what alternatives have you found that are similar to what reddit used to be (besides this site)? Also, what alternative sites have you found replaced Reddit for you, even if they are not similar to what Reddit once was?
On Windows 10 you can have separate virtual desktops. You can use win+tab to add and switch to one and then bring all of your work windows over to it. I used to use that when I began WFH but got out of the practice. You can switch between them by doing ctrl+win+left arrow or ctrl+win+right but be careful because some graphics drivers use ctrl+alt+left/right/up/down to rotate the screen and I've messed up my multi-desktop setup more than once by mistaking the key combo.

It's not as good as having a separate system for office work but you can conceptually separate what you are doing at least.
Doesn't the run before using @time take care of that?
Human-drawn "deformities" are things like super-long legs, missing noses, or mouths so wide they look like a Muppet.
