100% agree. They reap the benefits of the automation efficiency while not paying the costs of it. I think these companies should be considered directly responsible if they don't pay royalties to the rightful owners.

This should include how the royalties are split when multiple properties are connected to the same Ad (ex: one video that contains a song and a commentary). Right now, for their convenience they only pay the stronger party (usually the song rights holder) and ignore the other party. I think they should be legally required to split the revenues fairly.

Is it a hard problem to solve and risk a lawsuit hell? Sure, but they did solve way harder problems when they had the incentive to do so and certainly have the resources to solve this one. It's also rather easy to solve 90% of the problem and not being blatantly unfair, and I think 90% is way better than 0%.

I was eating frozen pizzas quite regularly in my twenties and thirties. At 32 I was diagnosed with pre-hypertension. The doctor was suggesting pills. I went home and evaluated my sodium intake. Those pizzas are insane with the sodium. I stopped eating them and haven't had one since. Shortly after, my blood pressure went back to normal/good levels. Ten years later I'm still healthy...and eating much better than I did when I was younger.
So you have to start with say, a universe with no constraints at all. Impossible to imagine. What would then be the purpose of a simulation at all? There wouldn't be any, because no constraints means everything is knowable instantaneously. A universe with no constraints means that nothing really ever happens.

But supposing there were some reason to run one in a universe with no constraint (impossible, since even having a reason to run a simulation is itself a constraint), would the simulation have any constraints at all? I don't see a reason why. Infinite compute available to simulate everything all at once would be trivial.

So we can then deduce that a universe in which a simulation is running has constraints. We do not know what these constraints are, but we can be certain they exist.

Some of the constraints within the simulation, unbeknownst to the entities inside the simulation, are the constraints of the universe in which it is running, and not constraints imposed by the simulation itself. Which constraints are these? Well, it would stand to reason that these constraints would appear to be fundamental. Maybe in ours it's the speed of light demonstrating the compute limit of the simulation. Maybe our simulation exists to better understand their constraints, and so something much more difficult to understand is indicative of their constraints. Maybe those constraints are reason itself. Maybe the fact that the process of the universe unfolding is indicative of their constraints. Maybe something else, maybe I'm wrong and its something that doesn't appear fundamental at all, but it doesn't really matter. Information leaks into your universe from the universe in which it exists. No matter the nature of the "bare metal" universe in which your universe is running, there will always be some aspect of yours that is reflective of the higher level one, and there will always be a way to tell that you are in a simulation. All that is needed is to examine the details of how yours works, hand wavy and much harder than it sounds, but theoretically it is possible. You cannot create a simulation in which the entities inside cannot possibly know they're in one, and in which nothing at all can be known of the higher reality.

Hi Ian:

> I think part of the argument here is that our software outgrew the one server/one operating system model a very long time ago.

That it certainly did. I want to know what's your opinion of WASM and where do you see WASM and its nanoprocess model (capability-based security) fit into all of this [0]? I look up to it as a tech midway between the KVM and unikernels; and firmly believe WASM is poised to get big soon.

Toronto does not equal all of the west. There are a lot of low cost of living parts of Canada where you can affordability arrange that exact living situation. My home town in Ontario which is around 80k people has had a lot of Indian-Canada families move from Toronto to my home town in the last decade for that exact reason.

There is indeed a trade-off, and the direction I would have chosen is to use meaningful status names as opposed to magic numbers. My reasoning being that maintenance cost in terms of how self-explanatory the system is makes more sense to me economically than obscuring the meaning behind some of the code/data for a practically non-existent performance benefit.

After all, hardware is cheap, but developer time isn't.

For a more concrete example, I might have chosen the value `'pending'` (or similar) instead of `5`. Active listings might have status `'active'`. Expired ones might have status `'expired'`, etc.

The commenter may not have quoted you the right rule, but their heart was in the right place. This thread is about building an HN clone, but you've taken it political.

You'll need to not want to do that if you want to continue participating on HN. Otherwise it's a matter of time.
From the opening of Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs [0] there is the famous aphorism, "Programs are meant to be read by humans and only incidentally for computers to execute."

I've been programming for over twenty years. Try as I might to produce code that expresses the problem eloquently and succinctly to unfold the solution in the readers' understanding as they skim through the source... it has rarely ever worked. Firstly you cannot please everyone. And secondly, programs are not structured for pedagogy.

Writing maintainable code is a communication skill but I find the best skills are writing, speaking, and illustrating concepts in prose, specifications, white board sessions, chats, etc.

The technicalities of ensuring code follows some kind of style guide, design principles, etc plays a big part. But nothing will explain "why" or the big picture stuff quite like a specification or blog post in my experience.

Kind of ironic that a company built around a tool that enables easy reversion doesn't appear to have the ability to revert a change, don't you think?
I’ve been reassembling my Christmas legos, and I noticed the same thing. Except I went back and checked, and every single time I just missed the 2x on the submodule introduction.

So I am also doubting my childhood memories now. Maybe they were always consistent, and I was just in a hurry?

Yep. It probably will either be torrented or sold on the black market. That is what I expect to happen with my health data in general (I have never had an abortion or have been a Planned Parenthood patient. I am female, though.). I have 2 rare immune-mediated neurological diseases affecting my peripheral nervous system, and I am on an orphan drug, so I am extremely expensive.

I don't use their mobile app, but in the past Amazon has quietly changed the delivery date without notifying me.

I've gotten confirmation emails from them that have a later date than what was on the website, and the order history showing later dates than what was in the emails.

How was any of that censored? I definitely have seen all that.

Can someone speak more to this? I've also seen it stated that it's possible to use redis for durable data storage, is that really the case? What do you lose out on?
I do this too on my iPhone - like all the really good iPhone settings, it’s an accessibility option, under Display -> Color Filters. You can also set up the “accessibility shortcut” so triple-clicking the side button enables or disables it.

It really reduces the intensity of the phone - you never realize just how garish the color choices are for almost every app out there until you see it in B&W.
Well, a GitHub star is (theoretically ;) a bookmark.
So it doesn't make sense to have stars that link to a private repo.
Yes, very productive. My favourite is when i'm in a meeting and somebody is sharing his screen. MS thought is a good idea to throw a toolbar at the top of the screen and some meeting participants icons (big) on the right. This eats around 33% of screen space (i'm being generous here). To be able to see something i need to go in the menu and select full screen. This will make some space on top. Now i need also to go in the menu and select focus and now i have an image which is approx 85% of the screen. The issue is that sometimes the lower part of this image is cropped with no possibility to scroll (scrollbars are so last centuury). Of course i can scale the image till it fits the screen (ehich will scale also the programm) but then it is not readable anymore.
I guess some things are just hard.

You don't want regulation forcing these things into your properties without also some way of containing their fires and their fumes (which are highly toxic).
Accessibility is obviously super important. For now I add accessibility content manually.

It really won't require damaging anything, you just gently stick a sewing needle into the small gap and leverage the axel out. Annoying? Yes. But "can't be taken apart" seems rather overblown.

I've got a 42043, Mercedes-Benz Arocs 3245[1] here which allowed me to reproduce this. If you look on page 322 (step #59) of the instructions at [1] it requires the same 4l axel to attach the bucket to its boom, and is held in place by a "bush" piece[2].

That one's trivial to take apart "correctly", but I just tried (without cheating!) by tightly showing the 4l axel in and gently prying it out with a sewing needle.

It took around 10-15 seconds, there's a tiny bit of external visible damage the size of the sewing needle head on the piece the 4l goes into, but I being careful.

Otherwise it's no worse for wear. I also tried it with a wooden toothpick, but the gap is too small for that.

I'd put that into the "annoying" category, rather than Lego having produced a "display-only" set. For comparison on the Arocs I had to spend 5-10 minutes gently trying to get a gear into the engine once with a chopstick without disassembling the whole front of the car after it fell off.

Vehicle Theft Warning and Prevention Tips
Careful Trading Complexity for 'Improvements'
The reason Google continued to offer API access after the acquisition was because a 5 year stipulation was in the contract to get it approved by the Department of Justice. Of course once the 5 years were up that was it. ITA had also built a reservation system for Air Canada. Air Canada never used it, but Cape Air switched in 2012. In 2013, Google discontinued it.

The whole acquisition was a huge failure on the part the DoJ Antitrust Division.

I found it didn’t improve my sleep quality or my ability to fall asleep. However - I do feel like I have a slightly easier time getting out of bed now.

I’ve been off caffeine for a year or more. Having it actually makes my stomach slightly upset now. Similar to sugary drinks - I can’t do them anymore. Once I gave them up - I couldn’t go back.
As well as make their own sets, and then sell those sets for 25-30% of the price, at 95-90% of the quality.
Small amounts of water can spread gas fires but large amounts of water smothers and deprives it of the oxygen needed to react & burn.

It's also really hard to get liquid gas on its own to ignite -- it's the vapor that you have to worry about. This is why gas is atomized and combined with oxygen and compressed to burn in your vehicle.
I think you are starting with an incorrect assumption and trying to work your way backwards from it.

Not everything is this black and white. Some people are not motivated by greed as much as misplaced fear that's been stirred up by the crypto folks. Open any crypto discussion and see how many clicks it takes to get to someone panicking over hyperinflation, bank failures, invoking the ghost of 2008, ect. For all their talk of FUD, crypto folks dish the FUD out onto the traditional banking system almost as hard as the traditional banking system dishes it out on crypto.

Mix that with someone who's easily impressionable and anxious, and you get someone who'll likely make some very bad decisions.
Our forests are growing, wetlands protected and lakes cleaned up. We've done a great job cleaning up some of the heavy industry and part of that is exporting those jobs to clean. China has a massive pollution issue but things in the western world have been getting cleaner. More new species are being found than we lose. Our ability to save a population has increased not to mention the possible of bringing back species might exist.

Everything seems worse because the media is shouting everything negative to get your attention.

paid hundreds of euros for the silicone prosthetic

And probably a lot more in fines. Surely finding a less than ethical nurse or technician to bribe would be easier and possibly less risk since they can just decline before you give your name. How inebriated would a nurse have to be to think a prosthetic arm is real? I suppose if one were to try this, at least give it the old college try and put that arm in a sling and cast so you can't be expected to make a fist or move your arm.

This isn't Google investing in Matrix, this is a group of people who work at Google using their spare time to rewrite the product so it doesn't get taken offline.

If anything, the lack of a dedicated team or resources is a strong indicator that Matrix will be on the chopping block at some point in the future.
Agreed - frequently the necessary data is available as nicely formatted json. Sometimes you an also modify the query: rather than something 10 results per request, you can get 100.

It depends what you're using it for. I like Sketchup and Hammer; Blender doesn't remotely resemble those. But then, Blender can do things that those most certainly can't; they're for different jobs.
> Oh please. There are at least as many "hunter-gather lives" as there are tribes

It seems the author is extrapolating game-theoretic choice beyond what they've experienced to examine it's generality

Agreed the phrasing is more than unfortunate, though to try and pull good from it; the author's game-theory probably does apply; and the rule of seeking the best for society at the disadvantage of self is probably the missing key here:

You have heard that it was said, ‘Eye for eye and tooth for tooth.’ ... But I tell you, love your enemies

Or, unhelpfully, the Code of Hammurabi:
If a man proceeded by force and deflowered the virgin slave-woman of another man, that man must pay five shekels of silver.

If a man knocked out the eye of another man, he shall weigh out half a mina of silver.

If a man knocked out a tooth of another man, he shall pay two shekels of silver.

My question would be: does game theory ever enable the golden rule?

Wow, this threw me back to the early 90s when I did print graphic design.

It's common to use one of the Pantone "rich black" options for spot color, because our eyes see it as "blacker" than 100% K. But yep, if you were doing 4 color work, it was a different kettle of fish.

The only small piece of concrete advice I have for you is to do with online security. My 90-year-old mum was using a single password for all services, and had started to use it for places that allowed you to purchase things, like Amazon and PayPal. I added her to my 1Password account and helped her change all her passwords to 32-character mixes of letter, numbers and symbols, then taught her how to use it. All of her password are stored in a vault that is shared with me, so if she needs to set up an account on a new site, I can do that for her and add the item to 1Password so she can use it straight away. I always had this nagging feeling about her using the same password, and I'll happily trade the occasional 1Password support phone call for the peace of mind I get knowing she's not using the same password everywhere.

For good creative play, they have to limit the diversity of pieces and colours within a single theme. Different sets from the same theme need to have similar pieces in the same colour scheme so they can co-exist nicely. Take these 3 sets from the classic 1990s Pirates, for example:

6259 "Broadside's Brig" https://brickset.com/sets/6259-1/Broadside-s-Brig

6267 "Lagoon Lock-up" https://brickset.com/sets/6267-1/Lagoon-Lock-Up

6265 "Sabre Island" https://brickset.com/sets/6265-1/Sabre-Island

Combining these 3 on a big baseplate can give you something completely new and interesting that still belongs to the Pirate theme. The bulk of the parts are white and yellow-coloured bricks for walls and architectural elements.
> more than 60 percent of Americans looking to buy something online start their product search on Amazon

I’d say it’s worse in other countries. The US probably has the most developed non-Amazon e-commerce market out there.

In Canada, doing an eBay search too is usually a non-starter, and there we have fewer niche online retailers in the first place.

Other countries without an e-commerce market right now risk becoming 100% dependent on Amazon.
