What parameters were trying to control and using as controlling factors using PID on ad spending? Would you have done it differently if you were selling a different product/service?
Too expensive for mass market. Lucid’s vehicle is almost $190k.
I'll have to check those out. For Schulz would you recommend the Wieniewska or Levine translation?
Ran into this today logging into PayPal (the password-must-be-8-20-characters payment service) for the first time in a long time to buy a band t-shirt. After jumping through two different types of CAPTCHAs, now they require you share your phone number to log in. I contacted support via Twitter saying they have my email if they want to verify a login because I'm not comfortable with SIM jacking nor how data-mining is cross-referencing phone numbers (I can set up U2F or TOTP after initial verification). They said call them... which is still giving out your phone. I tried to use a Google Voice number, but I got an error about these types of numbers being blocked. To get a non-useless level of support, you must log in so it's either give up your data or no service for you. You shouldn't be required to give out your number to most online services.

I just feel bad for the indie band I couldn't support.
FaceTime was. Not sure if it happened to iMessage
The most salient split in politics these days is between leftism and liberalism. Leftism is about a direction, liberalism is about a philosophy. The split is similarly old and international.

What we call liberalism nowadays is probably better called progressivism.

My best friend died in questionable circumstances overseas when we were 19. The full story was never revealed: neither when exactly he died or how(we were told he committed suicide by hanging himself). Which, even though no one had been to the place where he presumably died, is a straight up lie due to tons and tons of evidence confirming that it wasn't possible. The main suspect to many people's minds(myself included) was his father. Beyond the fact that he was(and still probably is) one of the nastiest creatures. The fact that he was the one who started the lie about him hanging himself was a huge red flag to begin with(and a lot more emerging with time). Sadly the only person who could really trigger a further investigation was his mom and she has had mental issues for almost as long as I could remember her so that never happened.

Anyway it's been 12 years and I'm afraid I haven't found a good way to cope with it. The first few years were a nightmare to put it very lightly. But at one point I just learned to live with the thought that he's gone. Which is not to say that I don't think about him every day. It just became a norm for me and while it still bothers me and occasionally keeps me up awake at night, I've kind of accepted it and learned to live with it.

I wish I could give you a less morbid answer but I'm afraid that's the best I can do. Sorry. And sorry for your loss.
It's completely unsurprising and much older than 1970. Hitler had a general disdain against the "educated elite" and according to old data a lot of Jews were highly educated.
There’s a huge privacy battle on the horizon in tech. The initial scuffles are just the beginning. Google and Facebook’s business models depend deeply on being able to track information that consumers are increasingly unhappy to share. Both companies attempts to diversify their dependency on such info for their revenue have been broadly unsuccessful (Google fiber or a Google car anyone?).

Meanwhile the likes of Apple and others are taking a stance of making it increasingly hard for Google and Facebook to do what they want to via updates now advertised as “features” that protect consumers. As these documents highlight Google knows consumers want this privacy and it scares the $&!& out of them. Interesting days ahead.

Full price TVs from eg. Samsung comes with ads and spyware nowadays. I would say the saying has stopped being accurate. Also, phones are paid for.
Economics change and companies change. IIRC the company has been sold twice and maybe the new company can't underwrite the ongoing maintenance or just refuses to?

Do users have a right to exist under legacy covenants when things at the company have changed?

Again, this is why I advocate for shopping at monetization time. The company has altered the deal, maybe you should alter it further?
It might be. Like I said: anecdote.
Yeah, quick replies only work if you have Android with Garmin and other smart watches because Apple doesn't let them.

The only thing I really hate about the Garmin is that they kneecap CJK support by region locking it.

From the same wiki article:

Beginning in the early twentieth century, the terms "left" and "right" came to be associated with specific political ideologies and were used to describe citizens' political beliefs, gradually replacing the terms "reds" and "the reaction". The words Left and Right were at first used by their opponents as slurs.
> It highlights two very different meanings of "genocide". It's the distinction between "killing people" and "killing a people".

“Killing a people” is genocide.

“Killing people” is murder, mass murder if it is lots of people.

The latter is sometimes part of the mechanism by which the former is achieved, but there aren’t “two different meanings of ‘genocide’” involved.

I lost my father at age 10 because of a brain tumor. I lost my mother at age 25 due to breast cancer. I'm now aged 27 and lost my brother last month due to alcoholism.

It's very sad and recently I cry regularly. Don't be afraid of crying, it's good for the soul.

Before my mom passed she said she just wants me to live my life. Do things that make me happy because before you know it life is over. She said: of course you will be sad in the beginning but don't let it control/ruin your life (like it did with my brother, alcoholism), live your life! Do all the things you want to do and don't wait to do it "someday". That memory really helped me a lot with the grieving process and made me realize that life is for the living, let the dead be dead.

I also educated my mom a bit because we never said "I love you" so one day I told her, let's say it! And get over this awkwardness. Since that time (she was already sick) we said it occasionally and I'm very glad we did that. I told her as kids we need to hear these things :)) . That taught me that as kids it's oké to tell your parents your needs. Parents aren't perfect and the're trying their best.

So how do I cope? In my experience the people that are dying are usually afraid that their death will mess up their loved one's lifes permanently and that they are "responsible" for it. So just live life man. That's the greatest thing you can do to honor the ones that have passed. Sometimes you feel like a zombie, sometimes you feel like nothing changed. It's all part of the experience we call life. We are just getting to know more about life and all the sadness and happiness it has to offer.
Hacker News.

But for simplicity, moderation and downvote buttons would do a world of good.
Not necessarily. The Anglican Church and other Protestant churches ran many of these schools.

And interestingly, Dartmouth College in New Hampshire was created to educate native Americans. Now it’s an Ivy League college.
Why not? We make a lot of money offering it to people.
Thank you.

The medical team did confirm with us yesterday that they have reported it to VAERS.

The irony with all of this is rich. The entire point of the vaccine was to prevent her from acquiring an infection that would potentially put her on a ventilator in an ICU forcing us to say goodbye to her as she suffocated.

We are now going to be turning off the ventilator, removing the tube, and saying goodbye to her as she suffocates. At least she is brain dead which she would not be if she was dying of covid-19. That's the only blessing we can think of.
> "Monero is the best-in-class anonymous cryptocurrency in production today."
>
> What the hell is it trying to say then?

It's trying to say everything else is broken too. I think Zcash is now best is class though.

> Note that this doesn't mean that Monero is 0% safe (as the gist likes to pretend by writing stuff like "Monero has been broken"), but it rather means that Monero is 80-90% safe rather than 100% safe.

No, the main point of the gist is that the analytic attacks are able to entirely break any user whose wallet functions as a stream wallet, which in practice is nearly everyone. To fall outside of the "stream wallet" definition provided in the gist, you have to run a custom wallet (not the main Monero code), and the implementation of that wallet has to be highly user hostile.

The attack doesn't target weaknesses in the monero implementation, it targets weaknesses in the monero architecture. Any decoy system has the exact same issues. If Monero is still on a 10 decoy system (even if it were on a 100,000 decoy system), all the attacks in the gist apply.
I have a long range Y ordered before the change was made. Received an email asking if I wanted to continue with my order due to the radar->vision change, one click approved and received my VIN. The bleeding edge has a cost I suppose, and I’m unwilling to wait. Could be years before an automaker produces a similar CUV/SUV vehicle with a robust charging network [1] for ~$50k.

The king is distant and does not have direct interest in suppressing individual uppity peasants. The local lord can deliver individualized oppression. Generally, centralization of royal authority, specially in matters of justice, led to an improvement in the common people's situation.

Nothing to do with GST. They have a registered Australian company, but they (like most multinationals) do dodgy tax scams to offshore revenues.

I do agree there would need to be a way to reduce spam, but on the contrary I think there is a huge opportunity to cut out the parts of the internet that serve no useful purposes - for example those spam sites that rip off the text of stackoverflow answers with tons of ads.

There’s more to performance than peak theoretical performance. The architectures that stick around have tended to be ones with more software support (e.g., x86).

If you mean network bandwidth, the level of batching controls the bandwidth bound and is configurable. If you mean chip bandwidth, that relies on advanced compilation that is pretty darn hard to get right.

For a chip like cerebras’s to win, it’d have to have a bandwidth bound workload and deliver on the software to eliminate the bottlenecks.
I prefer it to be intuitive rather than save half a second pressing keys (and then lose it because I forget which one goes up and which down). It would be better to have both ways for the two kinds of people.

I didn't know it was for efficiency, thanks for explaining that. I have always been so inefficient with it that I thought it was just a remnant from the 80s.

>It seems like the Catholic Church is often (always?) somehow involved in these systemic child abuse/mass grave stories and it’s mind-boggling to me that we continue to allow an organization with that kind of track record to take responsibility for caring for and placing at-risk children.

What's the alternative?

The government is no better here.
I often see the reasoning that the right is less educated as proof that they are the wrong unwashed masses.

What I do not see mentioned, that experts of propaganda clearly know that more educated people are more susceptible to propaganda.

For those who want sources for this, please refer to Jacques Ellul: Propaganda: The Formation of Men's Attitudes.

This is my own wording (and like a poor one): for propaganda to work, the population must be educated. There is little room to inject your machinations to the simple and straightforward thought processes of less educated men.

Those who deal with more abstract and complex thought, the more educated, are easier to lead astray with minutiae.

For a contemporary example, just look at MMT and the mother of all bubbles forming right now. A simple man might say if you print more money, money will be worth less. He would be at a high level quite right. Even if he gets many details wrong. The more educated mind might be more inclined to try to understand QE, money velocity, money supply etc, to the point where in the end he is probably less wise than the simple man.

Interestingly there was, in the first days of clang, an Ada 'compiler', through dragonegg. The original author meant to write an Ada compiler on top of llvm and translated (iirc) gcc's gimple to llvm, with some success.

The fun part is that dragonegg became an important part of clang/llvm for years (before it was phased out) to compile fortran (before flang) and to compare clang results and gcc's. I seem to remember other interesting uses but my memory is failing me.

Duncan Sands (the original author I think?) is an outstanding engineer and very fun person to talk to.

Very eye-catching - reminds me of Akira.

I assume those silver cylinders are battery cells? It would be interesting to see lithium ion cells being exposed like this as a design choice, like muscle cars sometimes expose part of the internal combustion engine as a way to center the power of the vehicle.

Also based on the scope of this project, I assume that must be a known cell form-factor, but I had assumed most applications were using commodity 18650's unless otherwise constrained.

It’s amazing how antithetical this is to requiring real identity.
Proponents say anonymity is the cause of spam and all sorts of unwanted content online. Yet using one’s real identity can end up just being terribly inauthentic.
Latin is quite a strange language. It never really died, or it did die but with a slow and uneven death. The example you being is emblematic: as the international language of scholars in Europe, when the new word "Musa" gets adopted in the 18th century from the arabic "mauz", on one hand sure, it's technically Latin and thus yes technically there is a Latin word whose etymology traces back to an Austronesian root.

I'm the other hand though it clearly doesn't mean that this happened during ancient Roman times, which is the conclusion one would easily jump to under the assumption that Latin really died long long ago.

Lingua latina mortua est, vivat lingua latina!

> In all of english Canada, he is presented as a man consumed with mental illness fighting along side the natives, whereas in Quebec, which is francophone and healthily feuding with the anglos on all sides, Mr Riel is presented as a franco hero without any mentions of mr Riel's illness and our country's treatment of the man and his condition.

I don’t get why Quebecers always think they are the only ones who remember Louis Riel. In Manitoba he’s the biggest cultural and historical icon people identify with. He has grandiose stately statues at the legislature, around town and in universities. Schools, school divisions, libraries, streets, bridges, colleges and community centres are named after him. His mother’s house in Winnipeg is a national park preserved and staffed with period role play actors. He is buried in a prominent scenic grounds where people visit all the time. If you go to tourist shops you’ll find t shirts with Louis Riels portrait. There are handsome murals agrandizing him in the trendy parts of town. He is widely accepted to be the founder of Manitoba (having even chosen the name "Manitoba"), and a hero both within and outside the Indigenous 13%, Metis 6% and French ~12% populations here. He has a provincial Stat holiday in February for gods sake! Try not to paint with an overly broad brush.

Another scam for you to lookup: Facebook Australia claimed it made 2020 local revenues of $155M. In reality it's local revenues were $747M. They put the rest of it onto overseas books to reduce the local tax requirements.

It's the same reason Apple runs a huge chunk of their international revenues through Ireland.
I think you missed OP's reference to "urban areas". People who blast though densely populated neighborhoods on quads (usually "sport" models with obnoxious exhausts) generally have no regard for anyone around them. This is a very different scene compared to someone riding in the woods on one.
Ah! Never drew the parallel, but being an uber-introvert with no desire to be involved in any social conflict for the rest of my life, I naturally gravitated toward that behavior.

OK "siphoned" is an opinion. Apple Maps also provides location services to other Apple products on its platform. Unless I disable the switch which is buried at Settings, Privacy, Location Services, System Services, Significant Locations, Apple will "allow your iCloud connected devices to learn places significant to you in order to provide useful location-related information in Maps, Calendar, Photos, and more." If I try to disable it, because I use iOS but I don't use any of those apps, it warns me that "Disabling Significant Locations will affect many Apple apps and services … such as Maps, Do Not Disturb While Driving, CarPlay, Siri, Calendar, and Photos." I'd like to know how that's different.

All I ask is for even just a portion of available software jobs to have this schedule. And I'm perfectly happy taking a 50% paycut to get it too. My employer would likely get more productive work per hour they pay for and I would get lots more free time and a higher per-hour take home pay (a larger proportion of my income would be in lower tax brackets). Win win.
WebAuthn prompts aren't a big hassle. On this desktop I reach over and touch the Security Key, on my phone I tap the fingerprint sensor. Because the phone is entitled to set UV since it knows that's my fingerprint not somebody else picking up the phone, they could replace the password step which is more annoying.

I think a more useful life lesson is that an organization's motto is not a useful measure of its true internal or external ethics - regardless of what it says - regardless of the type of organization.

A motto is, by definition, marketing.

Even more generally, I worry about the trend on social media to value words so much more than actions.
The parable of the wolf and dog might be motivating at first glance but one has to wonder what happened to the hungry wolf afterwards? In the wild, animals live a rather precarious existence, fight and eat each other to survive, and die of starvation and disease in untold numbers. "The idea of freedom is inspiring. But what does it mean? If you are free in a political sense but have no food, what's that? The freedom to starve?" ― Angela Y. Davis

What exactly is it that Mr. Taleb proposes we do? Even starting one's own business means inflicting the state of being a domesticated dog upon others which seems even less laudable than being a domesticated dog oneself.

No - it's just meant to say the first option ("sinking ship") is bad; frying pan to fire means you went from one bad option to another.

So in this case it's a dig at the US I assume, but not meant to be saying anything positive or negative about Australia.

Good question though, I can see how those idioms sound like the same thing

Perhaps treating the other road users as people instead of derogatory terms like cagers would help. In addition, choosing a mode of transport which is literally 20 times more lethal per kilometer than driving is your responsibility. You can always choose to be a ‘cager’.
