I think the analogy is still apt for having laws that charge someone outside of one's geographic region or citizenship. I do agree with you that the analogy does not go much further than that, as GDPR is not for individuals, does not have incarceration as a punishment, and does not have extradition to seek that punishment.

I guess my analogy was specifically targeting whether one government could have a law governing someone's behavior outside of that region, because I was responding to the assumption that he hasn't done anything wrong, and I think in regard to the current laws of the US government, he may have.

Speaking of worst polluting power plants in the world - where I'm from(Poland), the largest power plant in the country(Bełchatów Power Plant) burns lignite for power - and I can't believe the emissions per kWh from that plant are estimated at slightly above 1kg of CO2 per kWh!!!!!

Seeing as Tesla Model 3 uses around 150Wh per kilometer travelled, if you exclusively charged it using electricity from that power plant, it would be worse than many diesel or petrol vehicles on the road currently. And that's a stupidly efficient EV, there are many which everage 300-400Wh per km travelled, you'd need to buy a petrol Range Rover to even compete in terms of CO2/km emissions with that.
> Grocery and furniture delivery is a thing.

But doesn't the delivery driver use a car?

Also, grocery delivery/pickup might work for some people, but my experience has not been good. For one thing, the store employee won't pick produce the same way I would. And if something is out of stock, I may want to change other items as well, rather than substitute it or omit it. Store employees often substitute differently than I would, which is especially problematic with a food allergy.

I have to say I don't really like this quote. The first part smacks of superficiality i.e. learn chess enough to be able to show off in polite society. The second part I think simply denotes a misunderstanding of what playing chess well means. You can play chess well without being a GM.

In my family I had/have two people who plaid chess well (2000-2300 range) without wasting their lives in any way. They held full time jobs, had families and enjoyed the game at a pretty serious level. If anything chess helped them stay mentally active and engaged well into their 90's.
If we're being totally honest, the incentive not to do so is probably death. Who knows who is "invested" with them, doubtful it's people who like investments with accurate record-keeping.
My bad, which version of Linux should Ritchie have been auditing in 1972?
Judging. And it's impossible to build certain feature without judging.

A lot of people here probably don't remember what email was like in the 90s/00s, before it got bad enough that Gmail's killer feature was (what we'd now call) cloud-enabled spam filtering.

The distinction between judgement and censorship is the amount of user control. (1) Does the user know it happened? (2) Can the user override the decision?

Sorry, no. There is no debate on this point. The confusion here may be merely linguistic, but there can be no instantaneous influence, in the sense of a causal effect or transmission of information, from one particle to a distant entangled particle. If there were, that would violate everything we know is true about causation, and therefore reality. Nonlocal entanglement does not, and can not, involve an instantaneous influence.

I have no idea where you live, but there are nuisances everywhere. I can't control what people do right outside my house, so I don't open my windows during certain hours. If it wasn't that, it would be loud noises or lawn mowers or burning leaves. Put a no smoking sign in front of your house. Open a different window. Get an air purifier. Move to the country. Your solution to ban everyone and anyone from doing something outside an "airtight box" is quite similar to the impossible demand that everyone permanently wear a mask after covid; it's not going to happen, and trying to control other people's behavior will only lead to aggravation.

You have it backwards. Pronunciation in English does not follow many strict conventions -- and when it does it doesn't do so consistently -- and it's precisely because it's taken on so many loan-words and kept something close to the original pronounciation.

You suggest "ch" should be pronounced as in "cheese" in English. Well, what about chemistry, christian, school, alchemy, anarchy, anchor, chaos, archeology, echo, and literally hundreds of other words in English with a hard "ch"?

Yes, unless a child is told that pronouncing them with a soft "ch" is "incorrect" they will pronounce all those words incorrectly if they come across them written down. Such is the burden of the English language, the language with the least consistent spelling-to-pronunciation rules on Earth.

Yes, English spelling is not regular. It's mostly from all those loanwords. It's unfortunate, and is the cause of such weirdly quirky Anglophone things such as "spelling tests" in schools, and "spelling bees" where one can win a modicum of fame and money -- they don't have this in other alphabetic
languages. But's it's the way it is and refusing to pronounce words correctly isn't taking some kind of principled stand.

(Or should we say, for all those, "If it's really important to schoolteachers that English speakers pronounce it the way Italians do, they should consider spelling it using English conventions, eg skool"?)
You are still strawmanning. "Germania" is the Italian name for Germany. It's not a butchering of "Deutschland".

There is an English equivalent for the French "crêpe": pancake, and it's OK.

OTOH there isn't an English word "brusheta". It's 100% butchering of the Italian word.

Even worse if you use it in a restaurant and demand native Italian speakers to understand it and refuse any correction.

It's like I call you "rendass".
Well, they're cheaper than all other forms of electricity. The cost of renewables is mostly capital expenditure. If you have spare you might as well export it and you can probably underbid any other form of power.

France is also leaning rather heavily on the capital expenditures it made on nuclear power in the 80s. Unfortunately its gonna be in for a whopping bill when its plants start aging out in 2025: https://www.france24.com/en/20170710-france-hulot-could-clos...

Germany, OTOH, will be able to coast on what it's already built in the next 10 years while the rest of Europe plays catch up.
So Chinese subsidies are “purposely crashing the market”, while German subsidies are... what exactly? Well, they did not crash the market, but they crush innovation and competitiveness, while China improved.

The problem is that humans don't play that way, by evaluating a tree a few moves ahead and selecting from that. Humans use conscious heuristics and unconscious intuitions to make their moves that would be hard for a computer to mimic. It's easy to make a machine complete a task better than a human would, much harder to make it convincingly human-like in its behavior. Consider the task of picking apples from a tree. You could easily make a machine to do that. But what if you had to make a machine that to an onlooker (who couldn't see the robot's "face", let's say) would appear to be a human picking apples from a tree? And these people aren't just glancing at the apple-picking robot, they're spending their entire lives painstakingly analyzing the movements of this machine and trying their hardest to predict how they will move next. And the people doing this are self-selected to be the best performers in the world at predicting the moves of this apple-picking robot. Think you can make the apple-picking robot that will fool these people??

There are many chess AIs on chess.com specifically designed to play "like" a specific grandmaster or well known chess streamer. I don't think any titled player would not be able to guess they're playing a computer if they played a few games against the AI without being told. It's very well known that computer moves are very different from human moves, even the ones specifically designed to represent a human.
That article agrees with what the parent poster said, based on my skimming it. That article documents the great lengths those women, and their parents, went through to achieve their mastery. It also indicates their may be cognitive differences between high-level chess players and good amateurs.

> I love Linux, but it's still like a glass house. One simple terminal command out of curiosity will basically force you to reinstall the OS.

Counterpoints:

* Fedora Silverblue provides an immutable base OS with atomic updates/rollbacks. Makes it hard to mess up your system to the point where it doesn't work.

* NixOS and Guix provide delarative system configuration with atomic updates/rollbacks.

* Even on a 'traditional' distribution, you can use something like btrfs or ZFS snapshots and rollback your changes if you have a tendency to destroy systems ;).

That said, Linux is not for everyone and it is completely fine to use macOS or Windows (as I write, I am using macOS on a MacBook).
It is not clear to me that even paying for the online streaming option gives you the ability to watch any Olympic event at any time. I assume NBC does not want to give away everything online without a subscription to a cable/satellite TV provider, hence the obfuscation.

Yeah, maybe they can push to stagger commutes somehow. Incentivize business opening at different hours other than peak times I don't know. It's a hard problem to solve but making people pay to commute just doesn't seem like the right way to do it.

Ask HN: How Do You Learn to Solve Logic and Math Problems?
I've worked through thousands of hours of math courses in my life and am now embarking on an amateur study of logical reasoning, mostly through puzzle books and the Logic course on Brilliant.org.

Although in each math and logic course it's easy to find explanations of the solutions, there is never any pedagogy surrounding the methodology to finding the solutions. The explanation of a problem solution given by a source often involves a key insight, but there's never an explanation of how to reliably come up with key insights!

I've looked for tips and tricks, but the answer appears to be either "do thousands of logic and math problems and gain an instinct for it" or "have any extremely high IQ".

Any thoughts?
Which isn't perfect but a far better outcome than the above.
It disambiguates it as a version number, as opposed to a count or size. I agree it sounds dumb, but you do immediately know what it means.

Given that the Europe used to be an arena of devastating conflicts - with things like completely levelled down cities, to murders on an industrial scale, the long term investment like this may be subject to a lot of uncertainty as the EU moves closer towards being an authoritarian regime, this may wake up internal conflicts that are deeply embedded in some of the nations.
This exhibition looks amazing. Each time I go to Japan I try to find new exhibits, there are so many times that one can go to the national museum in Tokyo and finding something new (some items rotate, so probably I will go again, thou).

I hope that they repeat it next year, I hope that travel restrictions are lifted. I like science and it's fun to see real mechanical engineering instead of just software.

Discovery is the network broadcasting the Olympics here in Sweden, and they're doing an awful job as well. Especially the app is useless, with very annoying compression artifacts all over feeds with panning camera shots or even medium paced action. Trying to watch the new surfing event with all the white foam and waves was an exercise in patience for sure.

But the thing that really drives me up the walls is that the commentator feed on some (maybe all?) events is a second or so too early. The new skateboarding events were completely ruined by hearing the commentators reacting to falls etc, a second or so before you actually see it.
They may no have reached population equilibrium yet. Does Japan have to exist at 115MM people? Maybe it's viable at 50MM. Same for everyone else. Does the US have to have 330MM, or can we be okay with 250MM, or China at 750MM, etc.

I already described how male teachers treat girls condescendingly and how other family members can subvert their interests, as can their peers. There's a lot parents can do, but they can't be everywhere during their child's education and gate keep all their experiences.

>What would "perfect" look like?

The best we can hope for would probably be enough awareness of positive role models, and access to encouragement and opportunities, to effectively counteract the inevitable discouragements and adverse influences. Not perfect but it might have to do.

I'm not at all for positive discrimination, I hope I didn't give that impression. I don't think it's necessary. I do believe white men still enjoy a lot of advantages, or at least face a lot fewer obstacles, than even white girls and that's based on personal observation and experience. I was replying to a comment that white girls do not have fewer privileges than white men, and I think that's thoroughly misconceived. It's better than it was, but misogynistic attitudes are still very much out there.

- Wow, example that came up just today. My wife and I were discussing plans for a renovation to our house with an architect.

Whoever uses open plan offices for development or any higher mental task is throwing money away.

Don't kid yourself, this is about insecure managers wanting more control and they feel better when they have everyone in view.

This should be obvious without any study for anyone that had to concentrate on a task. It might work with a team that has deeper bonds than professional relationships, but the noise problem is still there and it doesn't scale at all.

Activision has some problems right now and what had me surprised was that they actually work in cubicles. I would have thought they would be able to invest more in their employees.

I still think that you cannot work efficiently in an open office plan.
I think it gives it a clearer indication that it's a version number, whereas "Society 5" either sounds like either yet another sequel to Society, or part of the title itself.

Also, point-oh sounds cool in English and just based on how much they use fractional percentages in Neon Genesis Evangelion, I assume it sounds cool in Japanese too.
> I throw around the label "proprietary" because software which doesn't come with source code is in fact, proprietary. If Signal pushes new server code to production and keep its source to themselves, calling that still "open source" requires serious mental gymnastics.

It comes with source code, just not on your time-frame. That's still open source.

And if that's unacceptable to you, just use something else.

>> Signal, for whatever reason, seems to attract a lot of entitled complaints like the ones I enumerated.

> No, besides your strawman the other commenters were all reasonable and constructive.

We're going to have to agree to disagree there.

But if you want to (for instance) implement a plan so we can be "assured that this type of issue won't occur again" in Signal (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27951759), be my guest. Or maybe you could develop a fork of it and show us your vision for it (including a source release schedule that's satisfying to you, a federated protocol, and all the the other demands in ITT).
