How is Young trying to silence anyone? He clearly knew the answer to the question of "it's me or Rogan" before he posed it.

He's just making it very clear what his position is on Spotify's tacit support of misinformation and he's taking a financial hit to boot.

Comparing Young to Rogan in this instance is a bit of a stretch. Young might force people to think a bit, Rogan either directly or indirectly, is causing people to distrust the vast majority of experts with some sort of dudebro contrarian outlook - and people will die due to it
There's large class of exploits that appear despite the implementation having identical input-output behavior to a correct one -- a side-channel-free software implementation of AES is quite non-intuitive (bitslicing), and not the sort of thing I think most programmers could implement performantly. Worse than AES is RSA; there are a _ton_ of attacks that are subtle enough, that professional cryptographers' implementations end up being vulnerable (see [0]).

More recent algorithms (I'm thinking of ChaCha20 in particular, but there are quite a few others) are explicitly designed such that there shouldn't be any "more obvious" implementation than the secure one, but the programmer needs to know to implement them. I don't _think_ I've seen or heard of a vulnerable "rolled my own AES" since everyone started shipping AES in hardware, but people roll their own RSA all the time. I've had "write RSA" as a class assignment twice, and neither time was "don't use this for _anything_, you're definitely vulnerable to 20+ years of attacks" brought up.

My amateurish take on it - total effort to terraform Venus might be lower, however exploring/colonizing Mars is much easier.

Not always. Products can be sold as "pay per scan," where the manufacturer maintains ownership up until the moment the barcode is scanned at checkout. The retail store then instantly purchases the product for an agreed-upon price and turns around to sell it to the consumer.
Sorry, I made a couple of points in that post, and you're conflating two of them. Ben Shapiro isn't radicalizing anyone, but he's definitely a hack who regularly says controversial things to get into the public eye. In a principled political party he would live on the fringes, like Hasan Piker does for liberals (although that might be a reach, I'm not super familiar with either figure).
I think that evidence from China's real estate bubble suggests that no matter how much of a supply excess you build, it might not bring down prices as long as the macro environment favours real estate as an investment, because demand for perceived-as-safe and fast-appreciating investments is nearly infinite. (The excess supply can probably make the eventual bubble pop more dramatic, though, but it seems like it won't be triggered simply by a supply excess).

At the very least, a supply-solution proponent would need to explain how China's property supply glut didn't bring prices down until the government cracked down on credit.

As another comment pointed out, if Taylor Swift or Beyonce joined Neil Young it would really tip the scales. Spotify can't give in to the demands of any one creator, perhaps. But if the right ones got together they could get probably get someone like Joe Rogan booted off the platform

Here is a nice video explaining housing affordability in Tokyo:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iGbC5j4pG9w

Notes:

* No one thinks of residential housing as an investment, so there is no speculation.

* Building codes are such that residential can be built almost anywhere. Japan has zoning, it is just really simplified.

* There is no resistance to rebuilding, so it is done a lot (why houses last only 30 years, the market demands new housing).

* Housing can be built on really small lots, only 2 meters of clearance is required.

* A $300k low end house is around 6-700 SQF, which might not make sense from an American context.

I mean Malone in the above comment
It's a fun one. I'm not pro-censorship either, but I also don't think he should do business with platforms he finds unethical.
He is talking about “rule governed behavior”, which are “stories” that we tell ourselves on how we should behave. Seth is asking to challenge those rules, specially those that are not useful for us.

As a first step, you can try to be aware of your own rules

This is the sort of thing where argument is probably fruitless, but they didn't try to impeach him for being Donald Trump, which is what I mean by an ad hominem attack. Rather, they (for some values of ’they’; this position was signally not taken by, to reach for the Democrat in what seems to be an analogous position to McConnell, Pelosi) talked about impeaching him, but in fact did not impeach him before he held office, for something he'd done—or, rather not done, namely, for his failure to resolve certain conflicts of interest that, according to a reasonable legal theory, made him ineligible to hold office.

Notice that the Wikipedia article you cite itself cites two sources for the claim of talk of impeachment before election, and, as far as I can tell, neither of these quotes any Democrat by name as calling for impeachment before he held office. This is, again, a far cry from McConnell, who very much went on record from his leadership position as opposing anything Obama might do; and, for that matter, from the Republicans who, on the record, called for Biden's impeachment before he held office.
There are zillions of moderation practices like that one. They all appear repeatedly in my moderation comments, often with search links that point to past examples. But we don't make a formal list, for a bunch of reasons. One is that it would make the guidelines so long that no one would read them. Another is that we're not bureaucrats. A third is that if you make a list of everything, people will conclude that if something is not on the list, it must be ok, and that's not at all how HN works. It has always been a spirit-of-the-law, not a letter-of-the-law place.
The problem is it's the Joe Rogan Experience a show but people are seeing or hoping it's something intellectual but it's not. On every show the topic is Joe Rogan whether people believe that or not.
If you’ve seen Neil Young comment on anything on TV… Rogan would eat him alive.

I actually hate it when I agree with NY on a topic (quite often) because he makes my side look like the looney toon side.
Yes. Like the boogey man currently called cancel culture.CRT is another.
> Young is making the mistake of trying to summon and/or join a mob to silence someone.

Ironically, Rogan’s career in comedy was launched through doing exactly this (cancelling Carlos Mencia).

I understand a utility of a specialized and featured editor. However, in case of Markdown, it seems that it was meant to be handled in whatever editor user edits/reads text files. This way it can be both written and read anywhere. It's just structured text.

If anything, a Markdown "viewer" or HTML-preview is what was usually a requested/expected feature. So that the simplicity of Markdown could be leveraged for authoring web-pages. But this could be done with a browser plugin, as well.

Many text editors these days have some ways of visually highlighting Markdown elements in the text, just as any other syntax highlighting. In my experience, another editor just for Markdown is an overhead.

LaTeX/MathJax could be written in more dedicated editors, as it's really not Markdown, and as much as it's convenient to keep everything in the same text file, complex formulas are not easy to visualize in text without rendering. And if indeed such a mixed "Markdown" file needs rendering, then it's rather a source file which asks for some Makefile to automate the assembly and rendering, rather than asking for another full-blown editor with its internal rules and options.
Apparently the lookups themselves are a really funky ruse sometimes actually, so it looks like he's fact checking but the source of the fact is like, some random opinion article somewhere.

Not shocking at all, when I worked in Germany the vast majority of my non-management colleagues were either from Southern EU countries or Eastern Europe and it was clear that there was a massive domestic labor shortfall even then (~5 years ago). But wow, the politics are tough balancing this clear economic need and convincing Germans attracted to AFD (far right) already because of the intake of refugees (among other issues) that this is actually a net good for Germany. I don't think there will be major moves from the center/left on this out of fear of propping up the right further and giving them more ammo but that's just pure speculation on my part.
There's been a big shift recently, but the general phenomenon of weird performative stunts isn't new at all. Did you know about the time Marlon Brando refused to accept an Oscar because he was mad about the government response to a protest in South Dakota? It'd be another story if Young were going around saying that he's gonna try to cancel any artist who stays on Spotify, or that you and I have a moral obligation to quit Spotify, but taking your ball and going home is a very well time-tested protest strategy.
"So what about people in medical school who have yet to be licensed? Grab them and have them do stuff. Retired doctors? Go get them. Whatever. It's an emergency. Get creative"

Would you prefer a student, or a seasoned doctor to decide on you - if you are in a critical condition in the hospital?

But sure, I would take any advanced med student over being ignored while in need of care.
And since this is not rocket science, here in germany all the retired doctors, trained military medic, ... have been registered and contacted in the beginning - to be ready if needed, but as far as I know, it was not made use of (much?).

And YES. It should have been invested massivly in healthcare in the beginning of the crisis and it was. But mainly just in infrastructure it seems. Or high level corruption.

Because today there are de facto fewer hospital beds avaiable, than in the beginning - because apparently it was not invested enough in the people. The ordinary health workers. They are leaving burned out.

For a short amount of time, you can enlist lots of reserve stuff so to say. But not for years.
Having this conversation, and realizing why I was digging into the position I held inspired me to look up the most dangerous occupations in my available area, looking at the statistics and contrasting them to salary, other benefits, and hurdles in the way of doing them.

> I think that you misunderstand the purpose (and utility) of type systems, but I'm not sure what to suggest to you so that you can understand.

I enjoy writing code in typed languages. I am in full agreement that they have purpose and utility.

> No, type coercions are bad engineering.

The opposite is true. Your job as a software engineer is to coerce types. I don't mean calling `float64(unsafeString)`. That's certainly type coercion but, as you said, its brittle and probably not the best design.

Consider a database. It stores its data on disk as something (ignore implementation). It loads that data into memory where it is coerced to a type (probably in the C-language). Its filtered, grouped, whatever else. Serialized to something and sent over the wire. Your Python server receives that something and coerces it to a Python type. That Python type is serialized to something and sent over the wire. Your Javascript front-end loads the data and represents it as a Javascript type.

Nothing about this process is bad or ugly or brittle. It would be infinitely worse to maintain the something type across all these different boundaries. Imagine pickling types whenever we want to save something to disk or share it over the network. Imagine being forced to write application code in the same language as your database!

> Type coercions at the interface level are a hack that is not acceptable for anything beyond hobbyist work.

Representing a value in the database as an enum and as its string name in the interchange format is not hobbyist work. I'm certain if you have worked professionally you've used enums and not marshaled their underlying value.

> If the server is changed, the client only needs to change if the interface between the two also changes.

You are advocating for type coercion. The server and client store internal representations and must marshal an interface type to communicate. That's a form of type coercion (I should say "casting" since its explicit but I've mistakenly used coercion so far so we'll roll with it).

---

I think you're too tunnel visioned on the types argument. Types are great. I love them. But coupling your database to your server to your client just to share types between the three is obviously not a good idea. There are greater concerns at play. Extend the argument all the way. Separate your client from your server.
> I do love me a scientific megaproject, but I still do wonder if a glorious $24 billion (and that's before the overruns) monolith is the most effective thing in terms of science per dollar, especially if it also has a limited lifespan due to consumables.

The 2nd mission with which I got involved, an Air Force Captain explained to me that continual trend was to massively underbudget a mission, and then make it whole through cost overruns.

Of course, my work was all about increasing the security capabilities of the constellation, which likely added in the tens, to hundreds of millions in cost to the system.

> It feels like JWST again: it's so expensive that it cannot be allowed to fail, so it's engineered to near perfection, but that costs so much that it has to be engineered even more to be sure, and so on until it's 1900% over budget, a decade late and muscling other science out of funding.

Launch costs are dropping and the space body of knowledge is changing rapidly

System Engineering tools are in their infancy, so rework or changing requirements are pricey. I expect this will really the cost of missions over time, since it directly relates to labor costs.

Simultaneously, the space operator mentality of "extreme availability at all costs" is meeting the hard reality of "space is now an offensive and defensive cyber domain".

We're building too many one-offs and too few constellations, both the birds, and the sensors. If you want lower cost we need to get past unit volume of one.

Free speech only applies to the government. A private company has every right to not amplify your message if they don't want to.
Spotify has been advertising their podcasts for a long time, and I have listened to a few of them on the service. I even tried an episode of Joe Rogan and decided I didn't like it, but after that it seemed that Spotify's recommendation algorithm really started pushing the show.

I switched to Tidal, which doesn't have quite as good a selection of artists. They do still have Neil Young.
I'm not familiar with xv6, but I remember using Pintos for my undergraduate level Operating Systems course around a dozen years ago.

I don't think the way to deal with people whose opinions we don't like is to pretend they don't exist and forbid those opinions to be discussed.

I don't think that teaches children or society in general a healthy way to deal with different opinions including misinformation and form your own opinions.

I also think the reaction shows or gives the appearance of fear, which itself gives undue power to them. Banning words and phrases and people like some nazi or communist police state makes people sit up and wonder why the regime is so terrified of words and in some ways marvel at their power (and don't give me the "private companies" line, we all know the corrupt government-corporate complex all work for one another).

“Heroes” that are incompetent but still manages to somehow save the day by working all nighters and sacrificing everything to counter their incompetence gets a lot more attention and interest from non-tech managers than competent smart developers that solves the same problem on time with no drama and go home to their families at 5PM. However I still prefer not to be a “Hero” :) My job is not my life.
On the contrary, JWST is mostly focused on the near infrared. Good for seeing through dust and for capturing highly red-shifted faraway objects.
Having some dumb take about social media doesn’t make any of them free speech advocates. These are just some clowns who have used the phrase as a cudgel. My whole original point was that the anti-crt laws are backed by trad cons, not free speech advocates.

Most of these people glommed onto the issue after it was made popular with the base by folks like Hawley and Rufo. It’s important to make distinctions when talking about where ideas come from.

I'm not sure why that matters. By inputting coordinates, you have giving extra information. There is a difference between verifying that someone knows the coordinates and sharing the actual coordinates.

This particular system seems to function like an IDP. Where, upon authentication and token is issued, and the 3rd party checks the token's validity. I'm not sure that is the same as zero-knowledge.

I was at a startup and Xcode compiles were getting really slow. When asked about it, it came down to the slow Swift compiler which was still early and evolving quickly but not very quick. Ended up getting a Mac Pro with I think 64 GB (which doesn't seem quite as much now with laptops having 32GB). It wasn't me using it, but I appreciated using money to solve problems.
Agree in general, and I think they were great M&A opportunities for the big firms. Think of Banking+Lending+Investments as a natural stack over much like Photo+Music+Games+News+CloudStorage are in the FAANG world. They keep the user sticky. Once you've got Photo+Music+Games+News+CloudStorage in the Apple ecosystem, or in the Google Ecosystem, for example, you're way less likely to leave.

Yet in banking, there arent great stacks where you can keep your relationship across the board. For JPMC, an acquisition of a Betterment or WealthFront (or others) would be a drop in the bucket.

Reckless endangerment does not require you actually hit anyone. Where did you get that from?

Texas Penal Code 6.03(c): "A person acts recklessly, or is reckless, with respect to circumstances surrounding his conduct or the result of his conduct when he is aware of but consciously disregards a substantial and unjustifiable risk that the circumstances exist or the result will occur. The risk must be of such a nature and degree that its disregard constitutes a gross deviation from the standard of care that an ordinary person would exercise under all the circumstances as viewed from the actor's standpoint."

And what does the now-void sodomy law have to do with anything?

You're also mixing up indictment with conviction.

At any rate, you don't have to have a fact pattern that precisely matches a previously-recorded case to think "gee, maybe this is a bad idea and puts me at risk of violating some law." Most cases involve fact patterns that are at least somewhat different from previous case law. A prosecutor's job is to make their case based on the facts, the law, and the ability to draw parallels from other cases.
