Hey investigative journalists, pull on this thread! This one right over here!
As others have pointed out, the US has completely shot itself in the foot. Large corporations and their biggest shareholders have been systematically moving themselves out of the tax base. So now when the US tries to use the tax code to encourage certain industries and behaviours, but everyone points out that the tax code doesn't exist for the companies they're trying to have leverage over.

So what's left? Move the rich back into the tax system? You can't, the money you let them keep turns out to be a pretty effective tool for preventing that. Or the next natural step, take money from that schmuck working a 60 hour week in starbucks and hand it over to the world's most profitable companies so they fulfill some ill thought out requirements.

spending on RnD is equally incentivised. RnD increases share price which would tax free increase net worth.

This is not a good argument.
Really nice tool - thanks for making this! What is your plan for this? Is this a side-project that you'll potentially turn into a business, or is this just a hobby on the side of your full-time job?

Just asking because I think many folks would be happy to pay to support a small ISV to ensure it's long-term sustainability. Not via donations, but actual pricing.
And here’s the correct response to you:

Money.
Give it time; it's a trickle campaign. Just this morning I updated my Win 10 Pro desktop, and on reboot I got a full screen wizard prompting me to "use recommended browser settings" which is doublespeak for changing my default browser to Edge.

Edit: On re-reading, I believe OP was specifically referring to false positives with SmartScreen that crop up regularly, like at https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/n7gige/ms_edge_blo...
@dang why was this flagged?
I mean Safari specifically chose to use a thicker toolbar on Big Sur. If they cared about vertical space, why didn’t the pick the thinner option?
How about a 100% tax credit? That would shift some serious capital into this space.
Engineering generally refers to design and building, of which analysis is a single part. So it's not immediately apparent that Nutt was practicing engineering at all.

It's more accurate to say that the kind of projects civil engineers work on generally end up requiring a PE, as a condition of actually being built. Small time civil engineering in your own backyard does not require a PE - eg improving drainage, setting up a windmill, building a chicken coop, etc.

Prohibiting people from applying mathematical formulas in court arguments because doing so is "engineering" is a dangerous idea. If you're fighting a speeding ticket, is it "engineering" to independently calculate your speed by measuring the time between two points?

Ultimately if the stormwater calculations are complex enough that the court is unable to follow them itself, then it is up to the court to disregard his testimony because he is not a professional engineer with a trustable opinion. That would be a perfectly reasonable outcome here.

But what the state board is attempting to do is to prohibit anybody from examining technicalities without the right license. That's the path to closed society madness.
No; yes; and yes to the EB1C and no the L1A.

Things like the tab bar and the reload button are not mere "widgets"; they are the core UI elements. They are the single most important part of the app. This is simply a bad call.

I'm all for saving vertical space whenever possible. But this is a bad call.
Really? The core idea I got from the movie is that our desires are driven by advertising - that maybe the constituent parts of our personality are largely just impulses instigated by external forces to consume various things, to work, spend money, and propagate to keep the economy in a state of constant growth for the benefit of the wealthy who don't need to work - landowners, large stock-holders, etc.
The campy, stupid action movie aesthetic is sugar coating for what I found to be an interesting theme.
Just because death can be an equalizing factor doesn't mean it's a good thing. You wouldn't say that to a dying loved one, for example, or accept it as a reason if you were on your own deathbed.

These are problems to solve, but they shouldn't block saving billions of lives. For what it's worth, any real cure to aging would be nationalized by every state on the planet, lest they risk facing internal collapse.

I mean for some of the tasks Tableau (and other software) would be a lot faster. But for dashboards that need a lot of customization and a lot of bells and whistles, I think programming one would be faster and easier to manage.
Great info, thanks for sharing! Will certainly check out the lectures.
But something nobody talks about are the sacrifices the population has to do to churn those things out of factories at the same scale as nations desperate to rebuild and feed their people. China succeeded because they went all in, their factory employees are still told today they have to sacrifice their youth to the nation.

Will american factory workers work the same way ? Will you proudly join a factory and start building stuff, at the cost of your health?

The solution, long term, can only come from China changing their mindset somehow, and then the next few places taking over the gap (I suppose Africa one day will wake up, India is starting a bit)

Also, even if America start pulling out, this doesn't make their products automatically superior. Taiwan especially showed they can outpace in execution, maybe in design and even if the US stop buying there, now Taiwan itself can compete and lead where the US will follow: is it better to be independent on bad design or co dependent on good ones ?

A few products, like GPUs, already have a 25% tariff added to them. Consumers bore 100% of the costs. Nothing changed. They are still being made in China for the foreseeable future.

No it's not. They have a known-good path you can deviate off of that allows you to run whatever you want with no restrictions. Everything still works, but the only thing is that since you can now do things that they might not have thought of, they are not going to be responsible for the side-effects that might have.

Essentially, it's an irreversible switch which allows you to run firmware that is not signed by their private key, which makes it a end-user choice: you can be in a safe and protected world, or you can be in a free do-what-you-want world; all you have to do is choose.
Other democratic countries don't have the influence and power that the United States does (for better or worse).

Consider the Cold War (which really wasn't that long ago) where there was a real possibility of the destruction of the country, or 9/11 where the country banded together to fight a perceived threat. Keeping the United States as a top world power is obviously going to be of interest to Americans, and national defense is a part of that.
…that’s because you have a set job with constraints and machines dedicated to that sole task in a controlled environment. Personal computing, third party drivers, background tasks, etc all impact this.

Or just fund the tax collectors, so they can go after the bigguns in court. The richest usually wins a legal fight.
The majority of these are better explained as "PC game ported to console". The same problem has long existed in reverse, console game ported to PC with enormous UI.

There are a vanishingly small number of games that actually do this properly - a scalable UI that has some good default assumption for the platform it is currently on. Of course games rarely make significantly more money because the text is perfectly sized vs the 1,000 other things that are competing to get done before the release date.
They should just change their QNA page to this, it does a better job of describing the new changes.
This is going to be an exciting area.

I spent some time previously playing with Coq. It's very powerful, but even proving the simplest undergraduate maths statements (say, about group theory) can prove very challenging. I believe that part of this is that Coq uses different mathematical foundations than traditional mathematics, which mostly uses set theory (ZFC, although most people don't care about the specifics). So it can be hard or unnatural to express something like "subgroup". I don't know if Lean fares better in that respect. Coq documentation is also IMHO almost impossible to understand unless you're already very deeply knowledgeable about the system.

We will probably still need some more iterations, to get more user friendly assistants with better documentation and to get adequate teaching resources etc.
It's Afghanistan in the sense that it's gonna be an attritional war. It's a mountainous island so that signifies a naval invasion which can be spotted very quickly. They may not be prepared but it's not like they wouldn't have time to mobilize.

The PRC has asserted their claim over Taiwan for half a century at this point. The PRC is China and Taiwan has been a part of China for over 100 years. Taiwan is still a government in exile as far as diplomacy is concerned.

Why exactly do we need to get involved? You do realize that it's a declaration of war? How many Americans eligible for the draft do you think right now are going to voluntarily sign up for a fight against China? Especially if it's just for the defense of some small nation like Taiwan? Nobody would be pro draft for what would be another Vietnam but instead is an actual fight against China.

It's not just a matter of "We should." It's very easy for you to say that when you or your children aren't going to fight the Chinese in a war that we most definitely do not need to be involved in.

The conclusion about the inability of the market to develop alternative or similar manufacturing techniques isn't established by observing that the state did.
It's possible to "port" your green card application to your own company - we've been involved in this many times - but USCIS scrutinizes these portability requests closely to make sure that the business is real and that there's real and sufficient work being done.

Not going to to a software engineering heavy organization. Instead I went to a place where we had to justify using Java 8 instead of Java 7.
The article uses that exact analogy.
Terrific analogy, thanks.

I support most any kind of national policy. Industrial, agricultural, transportation, education, etc.

Sure, use markets, incentives, competition.

Use some combo:

- private & public orgs

- private & public capital & finance

- top down & bottom up organizations, ranging from risk minimizing to hail mary.

Basically, whatever basket of strategies works.

But mostly I simply support directed, sustained investment in ourselves and our future.
> Personally, i think that there's too much similarly old software that's build first and foremost for x86, porting which would take bunches of time and effort.

I just got an M1 iMac this week. So far I haven't found any of my old x86 stuff that won't run. I'm positive that such software exists, but nothing I use on a regular basis.

While I haven't done any formal benchmarks, most of it feels faster under emulation than it did on my previous iMac (which, to be fair, was a few years old).
Is there a browser where the address bar spans the entire width of their screen? I've got FF Dev on Mac right now - about 60% of the screen eyeballing it. Have managed not to install Chrome on this machine and have to give it back in a couple weeks so I don't intend to install it if I can help it but from what I can recall it's not 100% either. Where is this entire width of the screen thing coming from?
For China, it’s an emotional issue. No amount of losses would be to steep once it starts.
It doesn't matter if it's dangerous or not if it doesn't get to run in the first place.
Note that this is not the case in all jurisdictions. In many European countries, the company cannot monitor employees' corporate emails without specific justification.
Because politicians have realized that semiconductor manufacturing capability is especially critical to our national security and prosperity. Having the bulk of it located overseas is risky during a time of war and potentially provides unacceptable economic leverage to others during a time of peace. It’s the same reason why we have massive farm subsidies.

A lower tax rate for corporations altogether would also incentivize the relocation of noncrucial capability. Limiting the incentive to critical capability is less expensive.

The most common way to treat onchocerciasis (river blindness) is by using ivermectin.
Starting from zero and competing directly with TSMC's top end processes right now is basically being at the "President Kennedy said we're going to the Moon" stage of landing on the moon. You are going to need many, many billions and billions of dollars and years of engineering and manufacturing (and failures) to get there. This is not something you just turn on the money spigot and solve the problem overnight. It is spectacular engineering at the smallest atomic level to produce in mass quantity the chips from TSMC today.
Do they still require a license for strippers? I always thought it would be entertaining to be a Texas licensed exotic dancer.
the court is within its right to impose it

There's no problem with the court declining to treat him as an expert witness. This is about the state threatening to arrest him for truthfully describing his experience and opinions.
I got this email a week or two ago, but Google sent a follow up email shortly thereafter clarifying that it was sent in mistake. I'm curious, were only some of those emails sent by mistake? Or were all of them? If the latter, perhaps the OP's concerns are unfounded as of yet.
Do you have links to these initiatives? (TAME and TRIIM-X)
Simple. You have defined the latter as some variation on the former.
I think the message of They Live; is that our rulers complete lack of empathy for ordinary people means they might as well be aliens.
Also I don't think it was a vision of the future; it was about society at the time.
I think part of the reason for using wire was for fire proofing. The recording would be salvageable even after intense fires.

Later recorders used plastic tape but also have a water vessel. As the water boils it keeps the interior from going above 100C - until it boils away. The recorders are rated for maybe 30-60 minutes of direct exposure.

Recent recorders use solid state storage and, still, water to keep the internal temperature lower.

I agree with what you're saying around the Mill and dataflow in a sense, but feel like we disagree in the details. The issue with Spectre, etc. is that data of different trust levels are comingled in a single address space. We want the processor to speculate on some data, but not others and we don't tell it how to tell the difference. What's going to save us isn't dependency information or static scheduling, but more fine grained permissions around the data accessible at a single time.

IMO we need to bring back segmentation hardware. Not the x86 version of segmentation (there's not a feature that x86 wasn't able to make twice as complicated as it needed to be while only giving you half the use cases), but the cleaner object capability on top of paging hardware versions of segmentation. That solves the really rough Spectre cases like even NetSpectre where you can slurp out kernel state remotely from untrusted network packets. Just stick them in a "this memory is untrusted" segment. From there the CPU's dynamic dataflow optimizations can include speculation where memory is marked as trusted.
1) not spending enough time developing professional network.

2) Becoming too comfy with the position and not pushing the bar as hard as I could could.

3) Staying too long with the company.

4) thinking too well of how the rest of the business perceives my position.

A consumer company started selling laptops with ARM chips, so obviously everything will change! /s

More seriously, companies like AWS have developed ARM-based chips in-house, and they seem to be very good (cheaper, faster than x86 equivalents) for specific workloads. That will certainly help with adoption, but i sincerely doubt x86 will stop being the dominant architecture. Maybe the consumer market will see a significant shift towards ARM. But not the real money maker, datacenter.

Sufficient understanding will always trump guesswork when the understanding exists (kinda tautologically). Hence the push to find it.

I've noticed a trend on HN were a commenter will literally take something verbatim from the article, or maybe put it in their own words, and farm a bunch of votes.
Large enough dataset + some way to see context. There could be an ambiguous word that is only found through accompanying media. A multimodal AI would be needed for that task. Maybe something like https://blog.google/products/search/introducing-mum/ would be up for the task, maybe not. But you are correct, people say a machine can't replace them until they do.
Any path that works ends better than billions of people dying and being forever cast into the void.
The issue isn't the drug. It's the claim. The drug could be legal for use in the US, and there would still be an issue (unless there were studies good enough to pass FDA scrutiny that demonstrated the drugs effectiveness). In the US, you don't get to make medical claims that you can't prove are valid.

Now, the other questions are whether Youtube should be considered "in the US", and whether Youtube should be an enforcement arm of the FDA. That's the worrying part.

I know that is the “theory” behind the censorship, but I’d suspect the true number of people choosing to do that is a lot smaller than people think. And frankly…if not censoring kills a few idiots and saves many more by allowing the medical professionals to fine tune a treatment, that’s a lot better than killing many to save a few idiots by making potential lifesaving treatment experimentation off limits.
One way is making the areas damaged into property. If you own land, you generally don’t want it polluted because it would lower the value. In those examples, make the water table and ecosystems into something people can own in portions. This is done with “views” that skyscrapers would otherwise block.

Should be done with orbits to prevent space debris.

The trouble is it seems impossible to turn certain externalities into property. It would require hard thinking and innovation. And just like regulations, it would lag behind industry and miss unknowns (lead, micro plastics).
This doesn't address the parent's question - it's only a criticism of YouTube's potential hypocrisy.
Yep. Abandoning HK is just the beginning. When the rot gets too bad in an empire the only outcome is fall. Ask Rome, or any of the 100s of lesser empires that have come and gone. The era of Chinese-brand communism, super-charged by free markets (!) and the ruthless use of technology, is upon us. It's a keep-your-mouth-shut-and-you'll-be-fine era, and I for one will not survive in it, and I will mourn the passing of our cultural of praising dissent and whistleblowers and the trouble-makers that, more often than not, contribute far more than anyone else.

The longer I stare at your comment the deeper the feeling that you are hung up on a semantic issue feels. While the intermediate states I went through were maybe a bit more interestingly-explanatory with respect to specific techniques, the final state I landed in is simply: "if you only used the bottom single bit to tag that the entire value is a value instead of a pointer, that alone mitigates the waste of moving to 64-bits by having fewer indirect allocations".

This single best book on storytelling that I've ever read is 'Invisible Ink' by Brian McDonald [1].

Of all the concepts in my comment above, the one it covers most in-depth is "theme" (the book calls it "armature," but same idea).

The main argument of the book is that storytelling is an evolved survival mechanism, and that every great story conveys a single piece of survival information (think the morals of Aesop's fables).

Every other technique discussed in the book is built atop that fundamental truth, and exists to help the storyteller prove that piece of survival information.
