Thanks for answering my next question, how much world of hurt would be involved with this solution in terms of breaking userspace.

Kind of insane how Linux kernel developers didn't test and resolve this in a similar manner before this became an issue.
Did you learn English by reading the dictionary top to bottom? I’m gonna go ahead and guess that no, you didn’t. You learned English by being surrounded in it and practicing.

It’s not good [use of] analogy because it doesn’t add anything. Everyone already understands the concept of problems being less urgent as their arrival is farther away in the future. They don’t need an analogy to understand that. Most often, you’d be responding to a strawman by acting like the core dispute involves your opponent not understanding that.

Yes, if you already accept that AGI dangers won’t be relevant until far into the future then that justifies a low priority.[1] But that’s exactly what’s under dispute, and the analogy doesn’t help resolve disagreement over how far it is!

[1] If the AGI alarmist accepts that it’s far off, the the dispute would be about something else, like the time-discounted danger. But in that case, the analogy still doesn’t work because the purported harm of AGI is much worse than that of traffic, and if you disagree about that, then, as before, the analogy doesn’t help resolve it.

Correction: Apple's war on FB/Meta/Zucc cost Meta $10B.

Let's not disingenuously pretend they did it out their own good hearts and for people's privacy: they did not.
Also more people overly attribute this loss of Meta to Apple measure's than general Meta trends.Meta's rebranding, dystopian vision about the future and it's anti-society effects though their business model which promotes less trust in the population is what brings up this number, not entirely Apple, not entirely Android.Then again outlets and people who do these kind of oversimplifications might aswell do it for sensationalism, since we need the same people to be explained the truth when something changes.
Teaching and talks. You can do talks at local groups (or even conferences!). Even if you don't actually get to do the talk, writing the submission and preparing the talk help a lot.

Writing the talk lets you practice. Giving the talk lets you get feedback on how effective it was.

They've been a lifesaver for my son in college. He's living in a dorm but the housing service has struggled the entire year with staffing, food stocks, and just generally being able to feed kids who don't have 60-90 minutes to spend standing in line.

TJ's is right off-campus and he's able to pick up meals he can prep in his dorm room a few nights a week when a lab or extra-curricular keeps him from being able to get food at the dining hall.
> Last month, the main courses offered on meatless Fridays included grilled cheese sandwiches, mac and cheese and mozzarella sticks. February’s Friday entrees, are vegan veggie tacos, Mediterranean chickpeas and black bean and plantain rice bowls.

I think calling these new meals “vegan” almost buries the lede, in that they are also the first meals made of vegetables.

Ok I'll bite - what else have you tried and what made rails so more productive?

My experience with big web frameworks - though I can't speak to rails in particular - is that everything is sunshine and rainbows until I veer a little bit off the standard path (or rail) and then it all becomes a nightmare. Where as if I'd done a little bit more myself up front, the thing is more resilient and can easily go where I want it.

Really happy to be wrong here, would love it if rails became my secret weapon. I'm a big ruby fan. But I'm sceptical.
Yep, "false equivalence" is the response I always get from an antagonistic audience when I try to use an analogy. Of course an analogy is not an equivalence, but that gets conveniently ignored. These days I just make the most direct argument possible and avoid analogies altogether, or else we end up in an argument about what an analogy actually is. Analogies work a lot better during a disagreement if the person you're disagreeing with is operating in good faith, which unfortunately most humans aren't able to do when their views are being challenged.
The apparent "pressure on wages" is broadly a matter of technical change favoring highly skilled occupations over lower-skilled ones. Wages for the former are still comparatively quite high, as we ought to know well here at HN. Of course this is a major source of income inequality, and arguably a social problem because retraining people for these newer jobs only gets harder and harder. UBI can be an elegant approach.
You're grossly underestimating transaction costs. It is vastly preferrable from a company's perspective to be able to make 1 deal with 1 company that has many ships, as opposed to many deals woth many companies that have 1 ship each. Reducing that cost ends up looking like Uber, where you've just moved your monopoly point to the controller of the marketplace.

Each individual deal an entity makes takes time and money.
> Rails 7 has abandoned JS bundling in favor of using somebody else's CDN. Have fun with that.

This isn't true. You can vendor your JS libraries and Rails will bundle them for you. It uses jsbundling-rails[1] to handle that.

Yes, ironically, a piece of software that becomes used by everybody, or at least everyone it ever might be used by, becomes worthless in the eyes of investors, because merely tracking with population growth would be seen as a sign of a dying business. This leads to self destructive behaviors as the product tries to monetize itself in unpleasant ways and expand into non-core competencies. Dropbox is an often sited example.
> To me, the fact that illusion and hallucination are being invoked is strong evidence of handwaving being engaged in to dismiss an otherwise difficult problem. This is not a scientifically rigorous explanation and it doesn't take the other side seriously.

Yeah. IIRC, some people say the passage of time is an illusion too. It's pretty hard for me to take seriously anyone who defends their favored theory or interpretation by hand-waving away contrary but fundamental observations as illusions.
Endeavour flew a red ensign during her service in the Royal Navy, as far as I can determine.

The White ensign only became the ensign of the entire Royal Navy in 1864, prior to that it was flown by ships of the White squadron of the Royal Navy.

The Red ensign was flown by ships of the Red squadron, as well as by private vessels belonging to British subjects.

>Why do you want the countries visa holders come from to suffer so much? The United States doesn't have a moral right to suck up all of the world's intellectual talent.

This is a disingenuous frame on two counts:

(1) Wanting the US to succeed does not mean that one wants other nations to suffer. Success is not zero-sum.

(2) The United States doesn't suck up intellectual talent. Individuals apply for visas and travel here willingly, often at great expense. Providing opportunities to those with talent and ambition is absolutely moral.

A price that has nothing to do with costs is a monopoly rent; in a competitive market marginal prices are driven down to marginal economic costs by competition.
Did you happen to know that the difference between 1 lightyear and 1.000001 light years is 9.4605284 × 10^24 femtometers? That means they're not at all similar distances on an astronomic scale!
I've come to understand that race is really just tribalism. For whatever reason that word is not fashionable for mainstream media/politics.
Uhm, the $99/year thing is actually substantial. It is not competitive at all.

I'm pretty sure if Apple let people just download IPA files (like they do with APKs on Android), lots of developers would choose that over the walled garden.
I don't have a problem with down votes as long as they have zero effect on the conversation thread, unlike here on HN. Greying out and/or making a comment dead does not achieve anything useful.

> What is even the size of a proton?

Just a layman but I think they usually define size via the halfway distance between the centers of two identical bound particles. Not entirely sure what that would be in this case though, given helium-2 is unstable and helium-3 might give a different result. (?)

Maybe "profit" is the wrong word. Anecdotally, the US has a lot of dedicated & spacious cell phone stores compared to other countries I've been in (where selling SIM cards is part of another store, like a 7-11 or an electronics store).

It's possible there's an extra $14/month in revenue going towards cell phones as an industry but due to the competition such as it is, it's mostly being spent on more aggressive GTM expenses.
Movement shifts spectrum so theoretically it may require bigger guard bands and slightly different paperwork.
OTOH, I doubt SpaceX allocated spectrum is tied to a any particular location (as opposed to say - within country bounds), considering it's satellite communication.

Starlink itself cares about positioning to avoid overcrowding and also any satellite tasking/scheduling/whatever.

I remember the night sky of the 80's in the property of my grand-parents, South of France during the summer holidays: in my early years we had a clear view of the Milky Way... But every year, a larger share of the night sky was turning orange: the near-by city was extending.

Nowadays there are lamp posts on their land and no remaining starts: when they passed away, the city was in the end of their road, becoming a street, and a dozen houses was built on my childhood fields.

Time has passed, and I don't know where I can show the Milky Way to my children.
I recently received the Raspberry Pi 400 as a gift. That machine and the book it comes with is as close a thing as I’ve seen to my original Tandy CoCo 1 from the 80’s. It felt nostalgic.

But I once was a physics student. We had a professor which was usually brilliant.
But we had a few classes involving arithmetic: Dimensional analysis or practical examples. He would scorn students that took out their calculator and say that any decent physicist could work it out within a few percents margin. Then he would work it out on the blackboard, and every single time he would be wrong by orders of magnitude and we all tried our best not to laugh.

(I started posting the below as a top-level comment, but in the end it arrived at the same point as yours, so leaving it as a reply…)

In Indian/Sanskrit literary theory (poetics), in the discussion of figures of speech (rhetoric, etc), similes are called upamā ("her face is like the moon", etc). The discussion of it in the literature is extensive and would fill several volumes (and I hardly know anything), but one thing recognized early is that in a simile/analogy, there needs to be a sādharaṇa-dharma, a shared property: the point is that there's something in common ("her face is beautiful, like the moon") while of course there is going to be a lot that is not (the intended meaning is not "like the moon, her face is pockmarked, full of craters", etc). In any given instance, this intended shared property may either be stated explicitly, in which case the simile is called "complete", or left implicit, in which case it's called "partial". Both can be highly effective.

In the context of this post, it seems that when making an argument, it may help for the analogy to be "complete": actually spell out what you intend by the analogy. Also, to echo the comment by @munificent, it is worth remembering that figures of speech are very effective as poetry, but poetry requires a sensitive and sympathetic reader (sahṛdaya). The same rhetoric can fail when used in argument with an unsympathetic audience.

Why does ability to attribute an ad depend on the ability to track individuals?

IIUC, you can do attribution with a very basic ad: <a href="website.com/ad-34" ping="fb.com/my-product/ad-34/ping"><img src="fb.com/my-product/ad-34/img.jpeg" /> Come buy my product, you'll love it!</a>

Then you sum up all the "/ad-34" hits, and figure out how many of those user sessions (which are now on your own site -- single domain, but perhaps leveraging a script supplied by the ad network) went and actually bought something. The ad network can correlate those sessions with the "ping" it receives to determine clicks vs. conversions.

There are coherent, legitimate reasons for some degree of consolidation within industries. Technology sharing, combining assets, reducing the overhead from separate operations and larger scale in theory lead to a more efficient business, enabling cost reductions that create both profits and a competitive advantage.

Consolidated industries can be highly competitive. An industry with multiple large players is more competitive compared to a single large player surrounded by many small players.

I acknowledge this is not uniformly the case. Mergers do definitionally eliminate competition between the merged players and efficiency gains do not always materialize. But, the broad theory is well established and has shown success across practically any industrial vertical.
>This is a bit pedantic isn't it?

This is an ad hominem fallacy. Mentioning it doesn't serve to invalidate the argument.

Anyhow, I think the point trying to be made here, is that you're arbitrarily drawing the line on what should be allowed to be killed based upon your own personal moral philosophy. What makes you the righteous one to get to dictate where to draw the line? Nothing but pure opinion (and that goes for anyone else too).
A framework is a social contract, if you will. The framework authors are taking on the onus of some complexity to give you a cleaner and easier to grok codebase. The tradeoff is that you do need to read the guides or you will be diving deep into framework internals whenever you want to understand some app level code.
Do those APIs work on safari, the only browser you can have on iOS?

No. No they don't. Oops.
> Depressing as it sounds, EU residents losing access to Facebook and Instagram due to EU regulations would probably materially increase levels of Euroscepticism in certain countries.

Sure. A reasonable compromise would be that the app developer puts Apple's payment system in the app, for you to use, but all transparently tells you that you have to pay the 30% Apple fee yourself.

So, you'd be shown 2 options. Option 1 would be their payment processor, and option 2 would be Apple's. And you could choose to pay an extra 30% to use Apple's.

Problem solved right? Everyone gets what they want, and pays the appropriate fee.

The idealist and perfectionist in you wants to keep digging deeper to arrive at a proper understanding. The realist and lazy SOB in you wants to slowly back away and pretend this never happened. This dialectic hopefully guides you toward a happy compromise, somewhere down the middle.
I'm a big fan of Walmart's generic soda. 70-90 cents for a 2-liter from what I've seen. I particular Diet Dr Thunder, generic dr pepper is a litmus test for me in generic soda brands.

Their diet stuff flies off the shelves, so that HN story about diet soda "spoiling" (was it methlyation?) isn't a problem. I doubt it lasts even a day on the shelf.

Their kettle salt+vinegar potato chips, orange "yogurt" (comparable to yoplait orange cream "yogurt"), generic life cereal is all pretty good. You can tell, because those are often not in stock, I think their production is limited by agreements with the name brands I would speculate.

Aldi's generic soda was pretty bad. Meijers, most grocery generics, all pretty crappy.
