That's the whole point: it's still not profitable.

In those places they've lost their legal battle and can only provide taxi service. It's better to have some service than none at all, even if it's more expensive. The ubiquity of the app is its own selling point. Over time they will continue their legal battles and eventually the market will open up again, and the app will already be in use. Keeping people on the app also keeps it open for other products, like Uber Eats. It's sort of the opposite of a loss leader.

Here's an idea, charge 5x the amount for water for farms than we do residential, (or any industrial/commercial purpose) and if you pollute the water ways you pay 3x the cost to fix it, and if it isn't fixable you pay some really exorbitant (might as well go out of business fee).

Sure prices will go up on goods from those water ways, but maybe they won't..maybe they'll do better more environmental farming to preserve water, like vertical farming.

Central limit theorem. You get to √(n² + d²) if you take n steps to the right and d steps up. But if you take n steps randomly to the left or right, you end up at about α√n steps in one direction or the other, on average, because the distribution of your final position is a Gaussian around your original position whose standard deviation grows as √n.

Try it:

>>> n=1000; sorted(abs(sum(random.randrange(2) for i in range(n)) - n/2) for j in range(128))

As you increase n you can see the distribution of final distances widen by its square root.

As it happens, in two dimensions the distribution is radially symmetric, and its radius is still proportional to the square root of the number of steps. This accounts for the astounding isotropy of lattice-gas automata, whose particles are doing such random walks simultaneously, and for the depressing popularity of Gaussian filtering in image processing, because the Gaussian convolution kernel is the only anisotropic separable kernel, and can be closely approximated in each dimension very cheaply with a different application of the central limit theorem.
I presume other countries didn't have a ban on such research so there should already be research data from those countries on the benefits of psychedelic treatment?
>What type of drugs?

All.

My point seems to have not gotten across.

Let me restate. Either a "drug" is fake and worthless, or it is dangerous. There isn't a third direction. If it does anything, it can do too much of it.

>Religion, politics, or any belief system can breed this without drugs.

Hallucinogens are major religious experiences in pill form with proper dosage (or whatever your preferred delivery method). There isn't really a comparison between something that can readily deliver a life changing experience on demand and those other things.

>What are you advocating for or against? I'm genuinely interested, I sense fear and worry in what you wrote but don't really understand the point you are trying to make.

I'm advocating against treating this class of drugs like they are magical perfect safe toys. They are powerful, and dangerous tools that can do a lot of good things, but any powerful tool can be misused or have serious drawbacks. I am not against "dangerous" things, there's no such thing as complete safety. I'm advocating for respect and understanding. There is a reason historically and prehistorically they were almost always used within a structured (usually religious) environment.

Let me put it very simply. Trump is a dangerous despot. Anyone who opened their eyes for a day between his inauguration and now can see that. And if you believe as I do that the most powerful country in the world shouldn’t have a despot at the head of its military and federal police, then you should do everything in your power to persuade people that he is who you know him to be.

If you’re not persuaded by democracy then how about free markets? Trump has gone after multiple companies for political reasons. I mean, the guy told everyone to boycott Goodyear Tire while he was President ffs. It is absolutely reasonable to assume your company is better off when they dont have to kiss the ass of a despot in order to keep your comapny’s stock price level.

It’s so incredibly sad how quickly we normalized that man’s politics.

I'm always mildly surprised when I encounter people on the internet talking about Roko's basilisk as something that Eliezer Yudkowsky / "the rationalists" believe in. Very few people ever took it seriously, and Yudkowsky wasn't one of them.

Another one that comes up a lot is the idea that "AGI ruin is vanishingly unlikely, but it would be so bad that we should be worried about it anyway". I don't think I've ever seen anyone make that argument with a straight face. Yudkowsky himself thinks that AGI ruin is very likely indeed. (As in, it has a >50% chance of ending life on Earth within a century.)

Of course that group does hold many wacky beliefs. Things like the entire universe splitting into pieces billions of times a second, people's brains being a kind of generalized refrigerator, the wisdom of not taking a free $1000, and the possibility of bringing sufficiently well preserved dead people back to life. Also, thinking that there's a high chance of AGI ruin is, if anything, an even wackier belief than thinking it's very unlikely. So there's still plenty of room to make an argument that Yudkowsky and many of his readers have ended up believing wacky things despite their disdain for religion.

I do find it very odd, though, that those two misconceptions are so popular. It's like Gell-Mann amnesia: If people can be so wrong about this particular internet subculture that I happen to know something about, how can I trust anything said by anyone about a culture they aren't a member of?

While I get what you're saying, the timing isn't quite like that. Two things: 1. The 68030 ran Apple System 6 and as a result Macs were slow and not "modern". 2. The Mac IIx came out at the end of 1988, which was the tail end of the 386 line. The 486 PCs arrived in mid 1989 in volume (so months later). The 486 quickly following with Windows 3, were significantly faster than Mac for all the things that were measured like Word, Excel, compiling, etc.

The 68030 was an elegant chip, but the OS for it did not arrive until 1991.

The spirit of the post is about integrated hardware and software. Sorry if I was not perfectly clear in this line. But by all means do not take anything I said seriously :-)

We Don't Have Time - The review platform for the climate

We Don’t Have Time is the world's largest review platform for climate solutions. The power of many enables us to influence businesses, politicians, and world leaders to act on the climate crisis.

We are a movement and a tech startup that leverages the power of social media to hold leaders and companies accountable for climate change.

The founders and backers of We Don't Have Time are ordinary people with various backgrounds and experiences. Aware, but not experts in this field, our lowest common denominator is that all of us at some point in life “woke up” and started to worry and learn about the Earth’s health.

We each took a decision: “I will no longer be passive and just watch. If I don’t do anything, who will do it for me?” That was the seed for We Don't Have Time. And it’s our shared belief, motivation, and ambition.

Marshaling is serializing.
> "The Hallstatt miners seem to have intentionally applied food fermentation
technologies with microorganisms which are still nowadays used in the food
industry," Maixner says.

These news will no doubt be seized upon by the fermentation community and the
paleodiet community, by beer and Roquefort producers and a whole other bunch of
people who will be happy to argue that their preferred diets or products have
ancient roots but all the scientists did was find traces of Penicilium
roqueforti and Saccharomyces cerevisiae in ancient human feces. That alone is
not enough to know that they were used in fermentation by the people who, er,
made the feces, or that they were even consumed on purpose.

These two organisms are ubiquitous in the environment. Speaking entirely from
personal experience, P. roqueforti is impossible to keep off aging cheese,
whether it's wanted or not. It thrives on humid substrates like cheese and it
actually loves high amounts of salt (Roquefort cheese has 4% salt, a high
amount, exactly to help P. roqueforti grow). On top of that, there are many
different strains of P. roqueforti and not all of them have a plasant taste, in
fact most don't. A couple taste like blue cheese (often named as P. album and P.
glaucum), but most taste like wet wood or dirt. Basically any blue mold you find
growing on food is likely some kind of P. roqueforti but if you've ever
absent-mindedly bit on a moldy apple and felt your mouth fill with the taste of
soil, rather than fruit- that's P. roqueforti.

I'm not so sure about S. cerevisiae, since I don't brew, but I suspect the same
things go. It's much more likely that the traces of P. roqueforti and S.
cerevisiae ended up on the ancient miners' feces either after the er fact, from
the environment, or were on the miners' lunch and ingested by them by accident,
just because people back then didn't have very good ways to preserve their food
in such a pristine condition as we can do it today.

Which is another thing to keep in mind. Modern sensibilities mean that any food
that looks different than usual is likely to be considered spoiled and thrown
away. In days past this was not the case. If your cheese grew mold, you brushed
the mold off and ate the cheese. That's probably how all the moldy European
cheeses were first created. So again, ancient miners eating food (and we don't
even know it was cheese to begin with) with P.roqueforti on it doesn't mean they
were eating Roquefort cheese, or even cheese deliberately cultured with mold.
I wish there were more technical information available about the 68000 emulator. This oral history is interesting, but it's not the sort of crunchy details I was hoping for.
Weird question I just thought of: if space is always expanding, why aren't the objects around us, even their very atoms, getting slowly torn apart?

I think this is fine, I prefer to let a topic rest. Yes, I could go through all my comments from weeks ago and see if anyone replied, but that’s a little crazy. I’ll see you on the next topic if the same debate surfaces again.

Usually HN recycles a few debates for this reason and it pops up a few times over the course of months until everyone finally hashes it out. The breather is good, go to sleep, sleep on it, come back in a few weeks, and we’ll go at it again.

If I got constant alerts about comments, it’s going to devolve into an endless back and forth where no one took a break. Similarly, it also allows people to throw out their perspective against different people versus myopically trying to reconcile differences with just one person.

I’ve been downvoted to hell on a topic one day, and then several weeks later got modest amount of upvotes for the same opinion.
I'm using a 6 year old ThinkPad X250 with 4GB of RAM.

The benefit of using it is that I have zero tolerance for bloated software because it just won't run on my machine. This includes the software I make.

Whenever I visit some bloated SPA that crashes my browser I always imagine the developer being some smug chap with a fully specced MacBook Pro patting themselves on the back for what a smooth website they've built.
