US is absurdly ahead in fighter development that countries need to pool together to develop alternative or be wholey dependant for foreseeable future. There's also political / tehcnical strings to using US fighters, which are dominating market and pushing out other manufacturers while US is historically also extremely stingy on tech transfer for joint developments. UK/JP/IT running F35. Sweden/UK/JP all have industrial knowledge. US also focusing on NGAD system which might be too finicky for export. There's a vaccuum and market for alternative. These are also countries who can't procure from PRC / Russia.
It's a complicated area but the key difference is to only use it for things that can't be otherwise electrified, which are mostly chemical input tasks, but cargo shipping on (or under) water is probably one of the sensible uses.

The Go hype is as bad as the frontend hype in my opinion.

If you're replacing Django with Go then either you never needed Django, or you have no idea what you're getting into.

At a previous job backend team decided to replace rails "because monolith slow ruby not fun anymore" with Go. Three years later they were still reimplementing things rails gives you since day 1. I've seen abominations as doing migrations as SQL scripts ran by cobbled together bash scripts because "as we don't have orms then orms are bad".

No need to say now they're about 4 years in and the one still running the business and making all the money is the monolith, not all the Go microservices around it.

Go is a replacement for c/c++, maybe java and for building infrastructure probably.

If you're using it for doing CRUD forms, you're using it wrong.

How does a “6th generation” fighter still have a human inside? What’s so generational about it?
Society evolved to the point that if you want to get to work in the US you need a car. There are a lot of places where you need a car to get to.

In many places in Europe you can get to work or holiday destinations by public transport.

In Switzerland (a rich and relatively densely populated country, albeit full of mountains) there are trains and cable cars to almost everywhere, and if not a train there is most likely a bus (managed by the post office). I managed to live there quite a few years without owning a car.

In Singapore they put a hard limit on the number of cars on the road (and no exception for electric cars, to Tesla disappointment), and the available slots are sold at auctions. There is a dense public transport system, supplemented by a relatively high amount of taxi.
However, I would expect drones to be reusable and not of the self-destruct type like a cruise-missile, so that you get at least those drones back that were not shot down, and/or have them attack more than only a single target.
Obviously it's D.C. politicians' fault. Perhaps the plan to exclude humans from the economy will now include animals.
That's why you use multiple approaches if you could. No real reason to limit yourself to only one preferred modality unless you're forced to.
"Think about how hard it would be to navigate all of the books in a massive library without the help of librarians."

According to the blog post, YouTube is just like a public library. Nevermind the absolute absurdity of comparing reading books belonging a large library to watching YouTube videos. Its strange because I never remember walking into a large library and being tracked every where I went and accosted by librarians trying to "recommend" books to me. I remember searching the catalog without any interference. I rememeber going to the stacks to retrieve books and then discovering other books nearby because the stacks were organised according to a public standard, not according to a secret algorithm. I remember checking out books so I could read them outside the library, wherever I want to read them, in private. (I download YouTube videos as opposed to using Google's Javascript "video player".)

This blog author wants readers to believe going to a library and finding books is "hard". I dont remember it that way. Not every patron who visits a library asks a librarian for assistance. YouTube doesnt give anyone a choice to be left alone. Theres a "librarian" looking over your shoulder the entire time. The amount of telemetry and tracking while using the website is totally unnecessary.

I use a VPN because my ISP (AT&T) is well-known for doing Deep Packet Inspection, throttling content from sites they don’t like (like Netflix), inserting their own ads into streams, and various other nefarious behaviors.

If they’re willing to do that kind of petty shit with DPI on all their customers, then what else are they willing to do with DPI?

Any VPN I use, will be with a company that I trust way more than AT&T. Mullvad is now alone at the top of that list, since NordVPN got bought by the same company that bought PIA.
Your comment raised some questions for me:

* Just curious, how do you enforce against, for example, a Facebook group? Would you have to totally block Facebook?

* With word of mouth an activist Slack workspace can take off on personal devices over cellular data, if the conditions are right. Is the idea of internal enforcement just to make it less convenient to participate?

* Why don’t activists use Blind to organize? Is Blind hostile to activists? How active is Blind at moderating content on behalf of companies (eg. taking down or burying activist content)?
I’d call Sycamore fairly different from Svelte; both eschew VDOM, but they do it in decidedly different ways, which I would summarise as Svelte being a component-oriented compiler primarily modelling reactivity implicitly, but Sycamore being a data-oriented library almost incidentally capable of producing HTML, exclusively modelling reactivity explicitly.

Svelte is a compiler through and through, providing and requiring its own syntax for things like conditionals and iteration, and declaring reactivity at the syntax level, inextricably tying its reactivity to properties on components, except for stores which allow regular JavaScript to get involved in reactivity (though components also get special support for stores via the $foo syntax). Dirty tracking happens at the component level.

Sycamore, on the other hand, is straight Rust (though typically assisted by procedural macros, which I will admit weakens the distinction), with only explicit reactivity (like Svelte’s stores), but keeping track of dependencies at runtime (more like Ember.js) and with things like conditionals handled as regular Rust code, and iteration as just a component that gets given an iterable rather than needing dedicated constructs. Dirty tracking happens at the data level.

(Qualifier: I’m expert with Rust and Svelte, fairly familiar with Ember.js, and quite familiar with some of Sycamore’s similar precursors, but I have only skimmed Sycamore, reading docs and a bit of code; I haven’t actually used it.)
In this thread? I have mentioned nothing of weapons. I really don't know how to tell you that threads and conversations quickly change topic. I'm genuinely curious what statement on gun violence my question was supposed to be making.

Your argument overlooks the many examples of utterly wasteful military spending that happens even against wishes of the military itself because the spending itself really is the focus over the actual military effect. So we could easily compromise between our PoVs and let you have all the military might you want - even if US might already peaks over the next few countries together (and looking at Afghanistan, Iraq, how is it even used?) - but you could still cut a lot of the pork.

I think things might get a bit crazy in the next century with climate change creating a lot of additional pressure, so I don't mind living in a well-armed Western Bloc, but that does not mean I have to ignore the incredible waste. I remember a Youtube summary/satire about the Bradley vehicle development, as an example for how it works (although it really shouldn't): https://youtu.be/aXQ2lO3ieBA --- and that is before senators get involved who are concerned about getting and keeping spending for their state.
Not really.

Japan is very afraid of China, along with the USA.

(China must be afraid of the USA. They are afraid there might be a incident before they equal us militarily? And it looks like they are closing in.)
So... J&J's vaccine is much less effective, but still "fine to provide"? It does not make any sense. If there's a 20% gap between two different vaccines you should not use the less effective one unless you have a very good rationale to do so.

France recalls ambassadors to US and Australia amid submarine deal outrage
I generally agree with your line of thought (CS is too accustomed to toying around with imaginary models/rules and not real-world physical ones), but I don't get the connection between mathematically sound models and manufacturing problems. Are even Genetic Algorithms (a bunch of metaheuristics) really mathematically that robust? I thought GAs were mainly discovered and developed purely empirically, and there's not that much theoretical guarantees behind it even as of today. The reason it's being used in the context of engineering is that it seems to solve non-convex or combinatorial problems really well compared to previous approaches, and that's it. And if GANs or Deep RL can explore solution spaces more effectively than GA algorithms, then why not?

Many engineering problems can be reduced to optimization problems, and if a certain toolset can be used to effectively solve these optimization problems, then it should be applied pragmatically. You could still question if ML brings anything new to the table ("isn't it just curve fitting in higher dimensions?"), but I think there's some value in using data-driven ML toolsets judiciously. For example, a lot of engineering tasks are repetitive but vary in very slight deviations (like screwing things to holes), and for these cases statistical models might help in bringing efficiency and safety. Of course the system still cannot handle real catastrophic deviations from the norm (ex. small earthquake happens and the robot is shaking) - but at that point human intervention should definitely happen. A truly intelligent AI would handle even the exceptional cases with some degree of pragmatic decision-making, but that's not the goal we're chasing for here.

I still agree with the sentiment that there needs more work to make ML methods safe though. This is in two grounds: one is to make it easier for the programmers to add domain-specific hard constraints to the model they're learning (enforce the output of the model always adhere to certain rules), and the other is to make the ML system report to the human operators for manual intervention when any abnormalities to the input and the output are detected. It's a bit disappointing that much of "safe" ML has focused on ethical issues mainly arisen from Silicon Valley (like gender/race issues in models: duh, your model will probably have the same bias as your data! The conception of using ML for solving social problems is fucked up in the first place...). The real focus should be the ability to steer, control, and constrain ML models as human operators would like, and I think the neglecting of this is the reason why ML has largely failed to be incorporated in industrial domains outside of SV as of today.

That doesn't address what I wrote. And you can't wash your hands of social effects of government policy "because it's their fault".
I assumed anyone sane would use flat/matte.
Guns vs missiles is a bad example (missiles clearly won decades ago). It's more about eg. wanting to use a locally developed missile instead of using one of the US approved missiles (because missiles have to be tested, integrated, and approved to be used on an aircraft before you can actually use them, which can take years even before accounting for politics.)

The MDBA Meteor (European AMRAAM competitor, generally viewed as the best beyond visual range air to air missile (BVRAAM) currently) has been in service since 2016, but won't work on F-35s until ~2026. For comparison, it only took ~1.5 years to integrate the Meteor on UK Eurofighters.
As TFA points out, there's a competing French-German-Spanish 6th gen fighter project, FCAS. FCAS is apparently already in some kind of trouble due to conflicting requirements. The French want a follow-up to the Rafale, that is a carrier-capable, multi-role plane with long-range strike capability, crucially including nuclear strike. The Germans want none of that, they want primarily an air defense fighter.

Show HN: 80/20 Dating Rule
Is it working for you?

Women will not settle for average men any more!

Perhaps you’ve noticed…

Ever since the advent of dating apps and social media, the dating market has been globalised.

Rich, successful, handsome guys are sliding in the DMs of all the beautiful women in your city.

These women are constantly messaging guys with six-figure incomes, six packs and the perfect smile.

They’re going on Tinder dates and getting railed senseless by these top-tier dudes.

And this has upped the standard of man that most women are expecting to settle down with.

The top 20% of attractive men are now getting the top 80% of attractive women, leaving nothing but the dregs for everyone else.

To stand any chance of landing a girlfriend, you’ll need to be way better than the average guy.

*That's why game is important.*

With game, you have the ability to make women experience an emotional rollercoaster. This is what they crave more than money, looks or status.

And that’s why face-to-face seduction will always trump online dating, in my opinion.

It’s far easier to create those emotional sparks in person.

But what if you are persevering with Tinder, Bumble and Hinge for now?

A question I’d urge you to ask yourself is: does this profile make me look like a top 20% guy?
I've made some tweaks in my profile that have been working really well for me lately. Send me a DM if you want me to share what I've learned.
Apple iPhone vs iPhone for Apple. Microsoft Office vs Office for Microsoft. Google Chrome vs Chrome for Google. Corporations are reluctant to put "products" without their brand name first. And they intetpret "products" as literally anything anybody with a wallet can identify. WSL makes the list.
I never put a timeline on it.
I have the same problem. We watched the videos about those 13 Thai kids that were stuck in a cave. Since then, YouTube has assumed that I'm into cave diving and mountclimbing, so my feed has filled up with videos of related topics. I've never cave dived, never will, and mountain climbing makes my palms sweaty.

But all of that pales in comparison to their Tik-Tok clone attempt of short videos. Talk about "chum"! They're clearly highly optimised to pull people in and get them hooked.

Luckily, I know digital drugs when I see them. I was one of those freaky people that could recognise the "hooks" in games like World of Warcraft and simply stop playing before the "endgame" mechanics sucked your life down the drain just so that Blizzard can get their recurring revenue.

Seems like this data driven optimisation for addicting people to low-quality content is the mental opiod epidemic of the current era...

From Wikipedia:

"Tempest will be able to fly unmanned, and use swarming technology to control drones. It will incorporate artificial intelligence deep learning and carry directed-energy weapons. The aircraft will have a Cooperative Engagement Capability which is the ability to share data and messages with other aircraft and coordinate actions. Tempest will feature an adaptive cycle engine and a virtual cockpit shown on a pilot's helmet-mounted display. A generator that delivers "unprecedented levels" of electrical power has also been developed for the aircraft."

It’s important to contextualize this (1) in the frame of Greece at this point of time —- many individuals still recovering from the recent internationally-renowned fiscal crisis, while corporations have received aid —- and (2) the general sociopolitical context: a long-standing tradition of guaranteed socialized healthcare for everyone (although the wait times are horrible and quality of care is questionable), government-managed pensions, and a promise that everyone should at the very least be okay, if not prosper. Greece’s long standing tradition of a strictly regulated market (as a way of putting overall societal well-being over individual profits) is being forced into the spotlight by reforms “forced on” by the EU and the international funds that bailed Greece out from the fiscal crisis. On the other hand, the populace feels neither responsible nor benefited by neither the crisis, nor the reforms.

An interesting tidbit from the recent labor law that enabled EFood’s action: employers have to report employee-hours-worked and schedule to the government, on a weekly basis, ahead of time, via a poorly design website, or via SMS, and there have been talks of tracking people’s working location and hours via an app…

It’s very interesting to see what will happen over the next few years…

PS: nice to see you here, Alex
If the company is based in China and you are not a Chinese citizen, I would be very wary. It is a common story that the Chinese cofounder can steal the business from the foreign partner. I've heard these stories multiple times both from friends and online. In the Chinese courts, a Chinese citizen will always prevail. Many have lost their business this way. Unless it's an extreme circumstance, I would highly recommend against it.

You mean if the site is hosted on GH Pages or something? And in this scenario, the site hosted by GitHub goes down, so then I go to GitHub (which is down remember) and download the site, and use it locally, is that what you’re saying?

Cmon man, let’s try to be realistic.
Yeah I dunno about there, but the times I've needed to rent a car in various parts of California, it's always an experience:

Usually you sit in a busy room. They call everyone one at a time - because there's a constant stream of people dropping off cars and picking up cars. For the most part, I'd say a car never sat more than an hour between being dropped off, getting cleaned, and being handed off to a new renter.

That has held true every. single. time. I've rented a car. And that goes back as long as I can remember, to when my parents rented cars 20 years ago lol.
You buy a Tailscale contract for the same reason you buy a Red Hat contract. If something goes wrong, and you need to fix it fast, their experts will work on that, not yourself.

Also, Tailscale offers OAuth through large corporate providers; I'm not sure Headscale is going to support that. (Actually, this is why I don't use Tailscale for my private network: I don't want to depend on an external OAuth provider.)

As a French, this is very much the feeling here. We do not talk much about the financial impact (though Naval Group is obviously not happy) but indeed rather the way it was announced.

As for the trust part, I would say that this is more being naive, which is always a surprise to me.

We dealt with the British during Brexit and the overall feeling is that we lost the deal (fishing, British disregard of the deal, Irelands as an open entry point, ...). This is probably just a gut feeling, but we tend as a nation to wake up the hard way - surprised that others are not friendly.

It is time to acknowledge that we are a small fish compared to the US, China and we need to find a way to deal with that, and not still live in the idea that the world is looking at is.
