India's decision might sound silly--especially given how many people on Hacker News trust Elon Musk--but the Indian government is just worried in general about all types of businesses that could be selling expensive vaporware to poor people.

I don't agree with the Indian government's decision regarding Starlink, but I also understand where the underlying logic originated from.

Hey,

You need to add images to it for it to visualize. You could try with some of your favorite wallpapers perhaps.

The docs on the site cover how to do it, but I'm going to work on making it more clearer.
Interesting. I have been doing this for decades but I absolutely started to get more intentional and in depth during the pandemic.

I’ve never been good in social situations and I generally avoid them, and I used this kind of day dreaming to play out various scenarios like a decision tree to “workshop” how to interact with specific people, and it has served me well for practical purposes, but I started using it more for “fun” since the pandemic.

> Malhotra's comments are highly misleading and vastly exaggerate the risk of heart problems following a COVID-19 vaccine. His comments are based on a recently published abstract from American Heart Association's (AHA) journal Circulation. The paper lacks credibility and has been cited by a number of COVID-19 skeptics and conspiracy theorists over the past week, including Vernon Coleman and Robert Malone, to imply that the vaccine is unsafe... the paper is not a published paper at all - it is a poster presentation from an online conference. Posters are a way of advertising talks about scientific work during conferences, and are neither peer-reviewed nor published in the same way that actual scientific papers are. This abstract has no published data, no references, and several spelling errors.

Since the abstract was published on November 8, the AHA has updated the abstract with an Expression of Concern, saying that the abstract is not reliable and needs to be corrected:

“Soon after the publication of the above abstract in Circulation, it was brought to the American Heart Association Committee on Scientific Sessions Program’s attention that there are potential errors in the abstract. Specifically, there are several typographical errors, there is no data in the abstract regarding myocardial T-cell infiltration, there are no statistical analyses for significance provided, and the author is not clear that only anecdotal data was used. We are publishing this Expression of Concern until a suitable correction is published to indicate that the abstract in its current version may not be reliable.”

The author of the abstract and study, Dr. Steven Gundry, is a former cardiac surgeon who has spent the last ten years retired from medicine and instead has spent his time writing diet books. He has made numerous pseudoscientific and false claims since he left the medical profession, and he earns a living selling unproven wellness treatments. He has promoted the unscientific “lectins” theory of disease.
I know FFI in Java is certainly possible and I’ve seen it at least a few times personally; is it that much harder than in Python or just less common due to the need?

Python doesn’t compile to machine instructions either and there’s nothing that prevents GPU access from Java. In fact I’d bet in many cases pure Java beats Python + C library though it obviously depends on how much has to be written in pure python.
Yeah, thanks, I was wrong. Thanks for the evidence.

unintuitive to learn how to do things the first time, but

Download the windows version of a given application, and then use https://constexpr.org/innoextract/ (check your package manager) to extract the game files from the executable, and there will be your WADs

then for any third party engine, following the instructions provided to find where to put those WADs

Alternatively, if that still doesn't work:

It was still rad back in the 1990s and 2000s, then came in people who think that if they repeat a bullshit sentence loudly enough and pushily enough, people at large will equate it with truth: "Email is too inconvenient to use".

I'd say those people do have a point about how manipulation tactics work, but email being inconvenient is bullshit.
sure if you are top tier talent, you can do earn top tier dollar. For vast majority of people who are stuck at "senior software engineer" level at an insurance company its a dead end job. Most ppl don't work at FAANGs at huge rsu comp, most ppl in industry dont get paid in rsus.

Again, i made a general statement. Surely you don't think this reflects a general case?

What is this universal, pure English you've been speaking? I must have missed the tablets on which it was written?

Non jokingly: There is no "bastardization" of a natural language. It is spoken how it is spoken and insisting otherwise is missing the point of language (I suggest it is "communication"). There is no King of English to sit and dictate the rules except for the common languages spoken.

If you want to really grok the concept, take some time to figure out what a "language" actually is. I'll give you a hint: your first 5 definitions have obvious failings.
If you can learn to focus in your day dreaming, weed can make it much more fun, I can’t speak for shrooms but I suspect if you can handle the hallucination it may be additive to the experience.
I'm curious as well, though I am slightly more bullish on Tesla. I chose one after being a lifelong BMW owner and having no interest in an electric, it was after seeing how little car I could get for 50k that had me go check out a friend's Model 3, and being very impressed. Cost of ownership is considerably less than comparable cars so far, and I've had a couple minor issues, similar to some BMWs I've had.

I agree overall fit and finish trails the luxury brands, but looking at what 70k gets you from audi is a joke compared to tesla. Clearly the other manufacturers are quite a ways behind in both battery tech and autopilot tech. If I had a 100k to spend on a car, I might pick the Porsche electric, but certainly everything else seems to fall far short of a Model 3 in that price range and I'm not aware of anything catching up soon.
Hah, I kind of do the same, but I was then put on the spot when an interviewer asked me why I made certain technical decisions/tradeoffs. Somehow I don’t think they were impressed with the answer.

Oh well, their loss.
Keep in mind that the ones with radar don't really have that problem. This seems like it was a large performance regression.
Ah, I see. It's a little un-intuitive, to be honest, that a music visualization needs the user to supply an image. Perhaps supply a default image, or use the album art if the music file has one embedded?
The most important thing here is that we're still in the middle of the COVID pandemic and don't know quite a bit about it whereas the Spanish flu has ended. We don't, for example, know about the longterm effects of COVID and whether it reduces life expectancy of individuals, especially those that were hospitalized.

The COVID death rates do skew heavily towards those older, but the hospitalization rates are less skewed and if we are no longer able to provide healthcare for those who have severe cases, then the overall death rate will be less skewed. There have been multiple instances of healthcare facilities getting overwhelmed and much of public policy has been oriented around ensuring there is enough healthcare capacity to handle COVID cases + everyone else that needs to go to the hospital. The fact that there is a very real risk of not being able to receive emergency medical care because of this pandemic, especially during the surges prior to widespread vaccination, underscores that the pandemic response isn't just a product of anxiety.
I just don't get why making some unsupported postulate about how parabolas can be generated from straight lines is better pedagogically than teaching completing the square and providing a geometric interpretation for completing the square.
In a way it reminds me of being engrossed in reading, in that there's an almost complete suspension of awareness of the outside world in favour of the fictional one. The fact that RS users report writing detailed scripts seems to support this:

> Before I plan on shifting, I write myself a script in the notes app on my phone, in which I plan exactly what happens in the desired reality. This makes it easier to visualize exactly what I want to happen

I suppose one difference is that in reading, you (or I, at least) tend to also dissociate the self somewhat in favour of the main character in the novel, whereas RS users seem to retain their sense of self.

Following this train of thought, I wonder if reading could itself be considered a kind of meditation?

This sort of thing is so interesting from a psychological perspective, is a shame it has to come laden with bogus rationalisations via the occult or pop-quantum physics, which just provides an avenue for easy dismissal of the effect.
If you don't mind compiling from source (it's super easy with Godot) you can try it now.

They said "At least our rent..." after the statement which is interpreted as the previous statement being a negative.

I interact very often with young people both online and in reality (barring the article's mention of several such things), and I see the same trends you mention. Some of it has always been mostly the purview of youth, such as interest in exploring known religions and inventing "new" ideas about the whys and hows of existence. Specific topics such as renewed interest in tulpamancy, dream interpretation, and chaos magic[k] I think can be traced roughly to a reflection of modern society: a desire to make sense of and control a world in which you have increasingly less control. As populations and communications grow, the signal to noise ratio that any given person experiences increases, leading to less sense of "I know what is what".
I hopped into this thread praying for a spacecadet remake I could buy now that I have some spare money. I was sad and confused to see that this keyboard did not have all the fun symbols on the caps.

I learned about tulpas in the pandemic and it absolutely terrified me as a concept. I encourage anyone who hasn’t heard of it to look it up or go down the Reddit rabbit hole for a bit.
But "might have helped prevent a surge" feels pretty far from "admits that its approach was a terrible mistake".
On filesystems that support the features: in the file system itself. On filesystems that don't support the features: somewhere on the system itself (like in the registry on Windows) or not at all (for example, when trying to set permissions on FAT32). Other operating systems generally don't create hidden files for this reason.

They do, however, create their own versions of the recycle bin/trash folder. If you use a flash drive on macOS, Windows and some Linux environments, you'll end up with three different recycle bin/trash folders. A bit annoying, but those folders are usually empty anyway.

Windows warns about the inability to copy permissions to FAT32 (in some cases, at least) and some command line tools on Linux do as well, but it depends on the tool.

Well,learning a few words can help you anywhere really.
If you are in early enough the decisions haven’t been made yet, so by definition they can’t be set in stone. You could have a technical co-founder that wants to decide everything without discussion but in that case you probably don’t want to be there for many reasons.
I've noticed this too. It's rather alarming, but I certainly haven't minded milking it.
Just FYI, I also had trouble finding the github repo. In case it helps, the HN URL lands on the polis page [0], which itself has an `open-source` link[1]. Not finding the repo link on the open source page, I checked the About [2] page and the collection of links contained in the `footer` section.

At that point, I gave up and searched `polis open source github` on duck duck go.

I personally don't see anything as "unjustifiable" - modern states can (and arguably should) be multipolar. Dedicating a city to administrative bureaucracy is not a terrible idea, in the same way as you'd separate salespeople offices from the factory floor. It's just a very modern concept.

I was just listing a few other famous "unintuitive" capitals. Another one would be Milano vs Roma, although the two are evenly matched on the cultural level.
I'd recommend seeking out a copy of the original HemiSync recordings and follow along at least for the first 3-5 of them. I was skeptical and had no results from other binaural beat and similar things, but HemiSync blew me away.
I had the case where one person was signing PDF using the annotate / drawing feature. Didn't work in court, the court claimed the contract was invalid (it was the situation of a founder of a company that was raising on a convertible debt).
The main thing that saves us from such machines is that they are relatively rare, and are seldom operational.

> Even verbal acceptance is legally binding

...for some contracts. A large number of jurisdictions require written contracts with signatures for contracts that meet various criteria. These rules are often based on or descended from the Statute of Frauds [1], so that gives a good idea of the general kind of contracts that usually have writing and signature requirements.

In the same situation: Moved here around 2014, have the same observations about being subject to state gov, and looking to move in the next few years.

Not trying to be mean, but it's like when someone who doesn't understand the point of the feature implements it.
All the court filings I've ever made electronically I've used the (stupidest fucking) system, which is called Conformed Signatures. You basically just type your name and put "s/" in front of it. That's supposed to tell the court you've got an original signed in pen and ink stashed in a drawer somewhere, but the reality is that no lawyer I know of actually has such a thing.

https://www.cogencyglobal.com/blog/getting-document-signatur...

I've never actually seen a proper esignature in a court document. Most court record systems are so outdated that it's honestly an enormous win if they allow you to view, upload or download documents over the web at all.
Thanks for the thought.

FWIW ivermectin kills these roundworms.
I think formally proving it will be difficult, but Mario has been disassembled and I bet that people have tried hitting every possible key combination at every possible location already. With a decade without any theoretical improvement, it's probably solved.

The value DocuSign offers isn’t the display of the original document. It’s the claim that someone “signed” it (by ticking a checkbox) and that somehow this is being accepted by the courts.
Can you replicate DocuSign if you were given 50B USD ?
Well, then you know if it's overvaluated or not :o)
Some of these may have been difficult when DocuSign was founded, but I'm not sure anything you've mentioned is technically hard today.

FWIW I sign a lot of documents (CEO of a company) and I use HelloSign/ Docusign interchangeably. Honestly, there's 0 meaningful difference, except I found HelloSign a bit easier to onboard, and I'd rather support them since I think the entire market of "sign a fake piece of paper" is the dumbest fucking thing ever and I hate that there's a company making shitloads off of it.

The switch to vision-only seems to be the cause - I've seen reports of people with radars installed that are on the autopilot beta program which got them the vision-only autopilot deployment, and they reported that they suddenly started getting a bunch of phantom braking. Reverting back to the version with radar for those with it installed reportedly fixed it.

So people who've bought recent no-radar Teslas are having a different experience than those with older models.
Name (only optionally checked), sort code & account number (which are not meaningfully distinct to an end user and I meant both by 'account number'). UK.

Email seems at best no better to me, since why would I assume the address I use to speak to someone is the same one they use for their bank account? Or the particular bank account they want the money sent to?
That sounds totally absurd. Unless the stipulation was instead for a wet ink signature I just don't see how this could be the case.

You can enter into a contract with even less than a signature (ie: just by accepting payment you can inadvertently end up in a contract), so the idea that a signature wouldn't work except in very specific cases seems pretty weird to me.

I've had very few wet-ink, notarized signatures required of me. Some documents are weird though ie: a picture won't be accepted, but a scan will be, etc.

God it's all so fucking stupid.
> However, I haven’t heard a remotely plausible explanation for the position of celestial objects at the moment of birth having an impact on personality traits.

One "remotely plausible" explanation I have heard is that it's correlation rather than causation. The same (possibly unknown or not well understood) root cause could give rise both to celestial events and to events in your own life.

And as you mentioned, the time of year (not to mention the year itself) that you are born can have a strong affect on your early development, your personality, and ultimately your life - though presumably it would be different in the northern vs. summer hemisphere.

And of course the sun and moon directly influence weather and tides and can affect human behavior and biology.
