It doesn't take windows 8 hours to install upates. The reason why it takes 8 hours is that the update process doesn't start until it has been determined that you have stable power. One of the criteria for that is that the computer has been on for a couple of hours without power interruption.
It is banal but people often forget about banal things.

Especially in technical discussion where they are focused on "important things that everyone should already understand".

Then it turns out that simply asking to clarify assumptions helps a ton.
Ok, but where the hell are my Android extensions? It's been years, what possible excuse is there? Either admit you just don't care about extensions so I stop wasting my time, or stop wasting resources on pointless vanity projects and get your shit together. Every new random thing like this is an insult to longstanding users who are still wanting for the baseline experience they had years ago.
Or Astrophage???
This sort of thing would have been a research project a few years ago. It's exciting to see the Web evolve. Broadcasting realtime text and video are now building blocks we can rearrange in innovative ways.
responsible is not the same thing as "liable for damages"

Obviously the companies are responsible for the stuff they make.

If companies make crappy software or groceries stock rotten vegetables the invisible hand of the market will take care of it and put them out of business.

This law, while well meaning, has obvious side effects that might make things worse than they are today.

Most importantly it creates an incentive for companies to create a culture of not looking for vulnerabilities. If they have a vulnerability they don't know about, they are fine. If they do know about it, they are potentially liable.

Then there's the issue of who decides what is a vulnerability. And if you think that's obvious just read "The Old New Things" blog for many examples of "vulnerability" reports that boil down to "If I can run program with admin privilege's, I can do bad stuff". Or look at US senators and governors who think that looking at HTML is hacking.

Finally, not of that is free. Government doesn't make money, it takes it from you. So when we create new regulation that require more government employees, you're paying for it, indirectly.

I think the one time I responded to a recruiter and went through the process was because they told me the company up front. Unless its an internal recruiter, I never get that info. I was interested in the company and I figured they could help speed me through the process (which I believe was true). I didn't take the job but I appreciated this person not BSing me.
that chat/rooms/meet on the Gmail sidebar is so bad... it's a relic from like a decade ago that they never chose to get rid of. It's so annoying to have like... 5 rows of mailboxes/tags on the left bar, since most of the bar is covered by stuff you don't care about.
Haha, yes it is. They're the customer-facing brand of Grainger so they've got everything. Their search is okay and some of their product data can be lacking, but their selection is massive. As I alluded to, it's often worth it to go find the manufacturer's pdf catalog and then search by part numbers.
It's a bit unfair to categorize Japan as segregationist. While it's true they have gaijin housing and restaurants, that's meant to make the visitor comfortable, especially if they can't speak Japanese conversationally.
The concept sounds on point. I do understand some of the reaction in this thread. The cutesy graphics are a bit much for me personally and may not differentiate you sufficiently from other insufficiently professional tools e.g. Discord. I am speaking as someone who has tried to bring Discord into a community organisation (non-profit) and faced resistance based on branding rather than functionality.

I find it interesting we need a start-up to cater for the desire for a repairable and upgradeable laptop. Dell, HP, Asus, MSI etc have already got the money and the expertise. If there's really a market here why haven't they already taken it? My guess is that the market is small though disproportionately represented on HN.
Fedora 35 is essentially fully supported and I believe their recommended distro[1]. I installed this to test it out and OOTB is was perfect, I may switch to this full time as it has the best vanilla gnome experience too (IMO). The other one they indicate that has near full support after install is Ubuntu 21.04.

FWIW I've been using elementaryOS 6.1 for most of the time and it's been really nice too. Full disclosure though it was pretty DIY; wifi did not work right away (I had to upgrade the kernal), I had to install some software to enable the fingerprint reader, and I needed to manually enable fractional scaling.

I definitely recommend it to run Linux, the community is fantastic and another strong selling point.

You're assuming an AGI would have all the characteristics of a machine algorithm and enough intelligence to do exactly what a human would/should (or better) in all driving situations.

That's a big ask, and is a huge superset of AGI.
I saw an example of how one could make the claim that 50% of infected are vaccinated and it worked like this:

population of 100, 84 are vaxxed, 16 are unvaxxed. 2 infected in the vaxxed pool, and 2 infected in the unvaxxed pool. If you then look only at the total infected you can factually claim that 50% of infected are vaccinated and thus peddle whatever grift you want. But even though it's a true statement, it's a gross misrepresentation of reality that hides the important fact that only 2/84 vaxxed people got infected and thus you should get vaccinated.

And that's the world we live in. Those grifters have huge incentives to generate this type of misinformation. Whereas the scientific community has no skin in the game like the grifters to communicate their information. The grifter's statistic is concise, easier to understand and plays into whatever biases the audience has. The scientific person's main job has never been to communicate clearly their findings to a regular audience, and that's where the system fails. Misalignment of incentives. The grifter needs to interact with a regular audience to peddle whatever products/podcasts/supplements for a living and will find these technically true statistics which muddle the water. The science person needs to write grants and papers that get judged by a small slice of society and are mostly confined to interact within a bubble. There's a giant asymmetry here and we don't address it systematically, we just embark on twitter-shouting matches that mostly have the effect of disillusioning the sciences while the grifters walk away with a wad of cash.
All you've done is to make an argument for speed governors. If the speed limit is 60mph, but everyone is going 75mph, then the point of "automated self-driving can't come fast enough, humans can't be trusted to pilot automobiles!" is self-evident. Argue all day if you like about whether the number on the sign is wrong, but that discussion belongs elsewhere.
Violent agreement is just a term for when people seem to be disagreeing but actually aren't. [0] If that is completely counter to your way of being, then it's possible your way of being isn't compatible with the concept of constructive argument.

And I'm confused about where I said anything about certainty. I'm not talking about how all companies operate all of the time, I'm talking about how some companies operate an unfortunate number of times.

> Holding everything else constant, from job title to industry to location, female and minority applicants were much less likely to report receiving an employee referral than their white male counterparts. More specifically, white women were 12% less likely to receive a referral, men of color were 26% less likely and women of color were 35% less likely. [1]

This is not good. Can we agree on that?

Another Mozilla PR piece regarding "privacy"... let me see, did they finally bundle (or reimplement) uBlock Origin as a standard feature of the browser? No. Did they make telemetry opt-in as required per the GDPR? No. Did they stop opening Mozilla webpages on first run which contain Google Analytics (also in breach of the GDPR)? No.

Snark aside, this change (for once!) does have some benefits. Tracking using IP address & user-agent alone is pretty strong regardless of cookies/etc and can't be completely blocked client-side when you do need to load the requested resource (such as browsing the malicious website, or third-party websites using Google Fonts/ReCaptcha/etc), so containing these within their own VPN, separate from other browsing activity is an effective countermeasure.
> "To see someone wishing British/Russian/Chinese soldiers dead, it still hurts me. It still hurts me that anybody would disrespect someone that had given their live for the country.”

Given that soldiers typically kill people, it seems inevitable that someone will hate them, whether justified or not.

If you look at countries that demand unconditional patriotism, they are usually flirting with dictatorship or outright fashism. It's not something a free society should emulate.
But would it not be possible to build missiles that can intelligently alter route upon detecting detection ? I recall once working on a auto guided industrial machine based on Motorola 68000 microprocessor that could figure out how to route itself to its destination. So unless you can detect and eliminate the missile almost simultaneously, an intelligent missile could throttle it's velocity etc. to avoid predictable trajectory.

Edit: some typos
> while being clearly a catch-all.

That's the whole point. This is straight from the Ethics playbook. It's a set of vague guidelines that wouldn't pass the stricter bar of being tested in court (like the first amendment has). It's basically anyone with a sliver of power playing judge and legislator. The catch-all clause simply makes it possible for the ethics mob to shut every form of speech they don't deem acceptable (again, this wouldn't stand in a real court of law).

Keep in mind the point of ethics is to shame people or practices you don't like via some kind of cancel culture of peer pressure. You'll also see the same thing with Codes of Conducts that basically allow anyone to exclude anyone for vague or no reason at all.
From [1]: "It was discovered that, by providing company executives with bonuses for reporting higher earnings, executives at Fannie Mae and other large corporations were encouraged to artificially inflate earnings statements and make decisions targeting short-term gains at the expense of long-term profitability."

What a shocking revelation! Could it possibly apply to other companies that report quarterly results? ;-)

I run into this constantly while using the YouTube app to "watch" (where I am mostly just listening to the video and otherwise carrying my phone; or even just transiently in portrait while moving the device) a video in portrait, wherein seemingly even very subtle touches at the edge of the device will lead to it jumping to other new videos and forcing me to go back... which seems to remember where I was half the time but the other half of the time just goes back to the beginning :/.
That’s uh, not normal. You should probably replace your thermal paste between your heat sink and cpu. Your cpu should be able to throttle down as needed to reduce temperature even if your fan can’t keep up. If it’s not doing that, it isn’t cooling down at all.
Panels are black, slick, inclined and warmer than ambient. Snow accumulation is generally not a problem.

If you don’t contact sales then you can’t get discounts for things that might not be a big deal to you but are to them. Committing to staying with them for a period, minimum spends for that period, paying up front. These things can generally get you discounts.

There's something Special about Oregon and fiber optic placement (at least, that's what I was told at the time; the article says instead this was Google owned fiber that was undergrounded eventually).

AT&T Fiber is in Austin. In my neighborhood, that's delivered via the overhead lines. My internet connection is literally a fiber that drops form a cable in my backyard from a bigger fiber, through my wall, into a fiber terminator. If you shot at that cable, about 500 people might lose access. In other locations, I assume they undergrounded conduits a long time ago and run the fiber through that to a local box, which then either runs underground to houses, or ... over poles that drop to houses.

it really is a series of tubes

I also strongly disagree. All the jobs I've taken at the advice of a recruiter were the worst jobs I've ever had. Even if the job matched everything on my checklist and I was able to visit the company and talk to the employees before signing on, it was still a terrible place to work. Why? Because it was in everyone's best interest to hide how miserable the job actually was. And yes, the salary was higer, but the jobs didn't last. The longest I was able to tolerate these jobs was about 2 years each. Which didn't look very good on my resume. Switching jobs every 2 years is probably ok for some, but I wouldn't hire anyone that has a consistent record of that. My advice is to find places that you would want to work and apply there on your own.
