In addition to what has already been said, I want to point out that there is a normalization step as well. The amplitudes are always calculated in such a way that the probabilities would never add up to more than 100%. This normalization is generally baked into the wave function of the system you are studying, but it can also be done separately.

Incidentally, amplitudes are actually complex numbers. You can think of them as little arrows, like this: →, or this: ↖. In fact, these arrows are also rotating with the passage of time; they trace out little circles. To calculate the probability, we square the absolute value of the complex number. The absolute value of a complex number is equal to the length of the arrow, and squaring a length gives you an area. Thus the probability is essentially the same as the area of the circle traced out by the rotating arrow.

Events with high probability correspond to long arrows (big amplitudes), and low probability events have short arrows (small amplitudes). Amplitudes can cancel out when added together if they point in opposite directions. Thus we observe that some sequences of events have very low probability. We sometimes say that these events interfere with each other.

Sometimes this interference seems mysterious, as in the double–slit experiment, and other times it seems very mundane. In real life we rarely bother to calculate the probability that the batter will hit the ball before the pitcher throws it, but calculating the correct answers in quantum mechanics requires taking into account many such unusual events.
> Even in your jurisdiction, you may soon have to

and as I've stated, using a DEX to trade from dirty coins into clean coins is cheap and simple. I think this whole thing is just paranoia, but in the event it actually does become an issue for law abiding citizens (such as myself) the market has already accounted for the nonsense and given me an avenue to continue to operate effectively and legally.

Over 700 comments, and noone questions maybe there is a little more to this story.

For example:
* Yes, he "submitted" >50k lines of code. Most of it is auto-generated from infrastructure generation templates.

* His teammates are submitting less lines of code because they're working on business logic

* Amazon doesn't let you put people on performance improvement plans because they are trying to switch teams. What is happening in these situations is that someone is ALREADY on a performance improvement plan because of a problem (and it could be technical, or it could be personal or professional), is receiving feedback for improving, decides they are not interested in working on fixing these issues, and tries to switch teams. This is when they find out that Amazon (like most companies) doesn't want you to just run away from problems by moving internally, and that you are not allowed to transfer. Then they go run to Blind or Linkedin to talk about how their manager is trying to sabotage them or hit PIP quotas.

Just saying. There's always more to stories like this.
But if it takes more cycles to calculate the output than input it into the system, wouldn't you have a problem?

Others mentioned that they each have their own ring oscillator and that makes more sense. There is no _central_ clock, and each core has it's own memory. This also would mean there's no central bus. It's an intriguing design, I'm not totally sure I'm sold, but it definitely reduces some complexity.

There was always a political divide.

What’s new is Americans killing each other over it.

The polarization is extreme in part because news sources now need clicks to survive, and Outrage gets more clicks than reason.

End result is some Americans become so outraged they loot and burn cities and in some cases, kill. And seemingly, their peer pole finds the mayhem understandable.

That’s what’s new.

They have some support, I recently read a G Suite legacy free "customer's" chat with a Google Workspace Support person.

There is no danger of Google canceling the core services of Google Workspace (email, calendar, Drive).

Google has never scanned G Suite/Workspace email for ad targeting and stopped doing it for email entirely in 2017; the ads in Gmail are targeted based on other information Google has (e.g. search history).

There are good reasons to not pay for Google's service, the above are not any of them.

Since Google has stated they're going to create an option for small, non-business G Suite legacy free customers, there's no rush for those people, who have been using it 10+ years, to get off it before they see what that option is.

BAYC Contract Review
Genuine question: your comment and a bunch of others make me wonder why people seem unable to filter email by sender. That used to be a pretty standard part of having an inbox. Are you using a mail client or service that doesn't have filtering built in? Do you find it difficult to set up a filter rule? Are you unfamiliar with filter rules? Do you use filters but just ideologically object to any unwanted email?

I'm honestly curious.
> The first is that perfection & progress is much like driving late at night with headlights. You will only be able to see as far as your headlights allow.

What I mean is that perfectionism is doing things the right way and make the best out of the limits you encounter.

I feel like many confuse perfectionism with obsession.

Official Google statement:

We announced our intentions of helping publishers and partners deliver games directly to gamers last year, and have been working toward that. The first manifestation has been our partnership with AT&T who is offering Batman: Arkham Knight available to their customers for free.

While we won't be commenting on any rumors or speculation regarding other industry partners, we are still focused on bringing great games to Stadia in 2022. With 200+ titles currently available, we expect to have another 100+ games added to the platform this year, and currently have 50 games available to claim in Stadia Pro.

We... expect? Not a "almost certainly"? Stadia as a consumer product is dying, if not dead.

Why is Reddit unlikely?
E2EE is offered to all users, whether or not they are law-abiding. More precise is to say that E2EE is offered to users who are primarily law-abiding.

Your points are well-heard, even by those in the
IC. What isn't occurring, is a good-faith discussion on solving the issues faced by law enforcement and the IC related to the growing entropy of E2EE wielded at scale by folks, a large subset of whom are engaging in criminal behavior. I strongly believe that fighting this issue with a hard-line no compromise response will result in an undesirable outcome for your agenda.

I am not a fan of kneecapped cybersecurity in consumer endpoints, which is the elephant in the room. It's a compromise borne of the E2EE entropy problem, intentional or not. I don't support unchecked recoverable encryption in any centralized fashion, nor do I support covert backdoors or skeleton keys.

Unfortunately, too many folks defend their position from libertarian ideals, a position which does have a technical justification. It just misses the bigger picture - that most folks in govt are just doing their job. A compromise will seek to enable those doing their job correctly while preventing abuses with technological means.

Telling the govt "too bad, you can't stop math" will backfire. The law can be used to force tech companies to literally stop doing math at scale.

This kind of thing has its place and can be useful, but I think there should be options to enable/disable such magic. Personally I'd lean towards it being opt-in, but I think with the cli it's a lot harder to not have it opt-out. Everythint is a string in the cli, but not so much when it comes to json. That's why I think it makes sense, providing you can disable the magic.
It seems like a matter of degree. To what extent do people treat it as fungible? Will that change?

For example, paper money has serial numbers. In theory, it could be tracked. ATM's could record serial numbers with accounts for any cash they give out. Stores could scan all the money they get for serial numbers, looking for counterfeits. Maybe they could share data to discover interesting trends?

In practice, it would be hard with banks and stores acting as mixers as part of ordinary business. It's easier to track things with Bitcoin.
Because there's no substance to these "challenges".

As with the Uighur issue in China it’s really simple: we assume the worst wherever independent media isn’t allowed to report.

It would be very easy for the Chinese authorities to allow critical media in every province just like it would be easy for Russia to have OSCE (or equivalent) inspection of “excercises” near the Ukrainian border.

Questioning sources and rumors is a good thing - but in cases when the sources are scarce because they are denied, one should assume the worst from the party refusing oversight. This is a plausible rumor.

I do expect that it won’t pass judicial review. However that is a discussion for another time. Remember the proposal hasn’t come before either house yet. Imagining the law is an instantaneous process seems misguided.

So you’ve now wasted comment after comment merely ‘making fun of’ that opinion without adding any substance. I assume that’s because you aren’t really sure of your position.

Perhaps this is just bluster to distract us from the fact that you didn’t respond to my rebuttal of your actual position. Let’s try again:

> that make life harder for smaller developers Nobody is making the Apple App store illegal. Those developers can continue to use that, if they prefer it. It is just other companies can choose something else if they want.

This simply isn’t true.

If a developer has to negotiate with a multitude of different stores, each with different rules, their life will be harder.

Given that the alternative is to lose access to customers, it’s the small developers who will be harmed most by this.

These bills are supported by giant corporations who want to run their own stores. It’s just about them taking a cut, and has nothing to do with consumers or small developers.
If you are looking at Adobe for Lightroom, get Capture One instead. No trickery and it's a much superior product.

I switched to it in fact after getting burned with the Adobe cancellation thing. Never looked back.

I also tried darktable. But Capture One does magic. The photos turn out always much better than what I could do with any ohter product.

Show HN: Shaple – Shape Rotation Game
Professor has twice been denied tenure, and now she is seeking justice
I started paying for New York Times and Bloomberg - using devtools to circumvent paywalls doesn't work when using phones - I really enjoy the quality and depth of reporting. But I am sad that they're "likely" left-only views on all topics, which means its not that useful for many topics to be shared with many people. Even trying to share non-political topics that I simply enjoyed can have an issue when the publication is New York Times.

Its the same reaction I would likely have to someone sharing a random no-name conservative blog or even Fox News.

So I wish there were more news sources with a history of being reputable that also didn't accumulate partisan baggage when they got afraid that the other side would get power. It seems irreconcilable since New York publications and capital have such a long head start on reach and growth and relationships.

A missing piece of this is Canada's Bill C51 [1], which characterizes interference with critical infrastructure as terrorism. A significant difference between CHAZ/CHOP and these protests is the legal context. Looters bad, rah rah, but GoFundMe doesn't want to touch (legally-defined-as) terrorists with a 10 foot pole. But C51 was passed with an eye towards stopping anti-pipeline protests, and conservative Canadians loved that*. But now, they want the right to interfere with critical infrastructure as a legitimate form of protest. Should have thought of that in 2015, I guess.

* though, it's worth pointing out that Trudeau was against it until he got elected, and it passed under his reign
I must say, that line about "there is no force, only consequences", it does sound a bit ludicrous, not matter when it used. When other human being A willfully inflict a consequence on other person B because of past actions of person B, I thought such consequence is commonly referred to as a "punishment", especially if A has some sort of authority or official capacity.

Like, I live in Finland. Here is an illustrative episode from what I remember from school. In Finnish case, the first world war manifested as a brutal civil war where about 1 % population died. The interwar period was characterized by political instability and sectarian violence, where it was near always people aligned with the "White" anticommunist side (victors of the civil war) doing the violence. People who publicly professed communist or socialist ideas often got roughhoused and in some incidents were killed; many times, their printing presses were burned by right-wing activists. The government turned a blind eye to these actions, but it wasn't something government orchestrated -- the actual activities were genuine "grassroots" effort from a part of populace that found any idea of communist action as totally opposed their mental image of Finnish nation, and certain democratic norms were not running very deep. (During some specific moments, the politicians were often afraid of facing a popular right-wing coup.) And granted, some of the communist action during that time was supported by the Soviet Russia and was publicly agitating for an international revolution.

However, what I am trying to say is this: Sure, a galactic alien with all the tact and deep understanding of human behavior that Lt. Commander Data possess could describe the events as "phenomena where communists faced consequences for their freely exercised speech actions because they found out their speech was wildly unpopular with some other people, without government doing censorship", but any sensible human being would recognize that there was political violence with express purpose of limiting the political speech of the left side. If you think these people had right to express their political message, it was repressed, with violence.

Now, I write about this episode of Northeast European history exactly because it is a distant analogue about any current situation anywhere in the world. But one can not pretend that if you inflict any kind of cost to other people either because they did something or because you want to change their behavior, the costs you inflict are some impersonal "consequences" which somehow makes it so that any other context of situation does not apply -- for example, your purpose for inflicting the consequences.
The explanation for the Queen being so frequently captured on two squares is that it most commonly is captured on its starting square, or is exchanged with the other queen, so for white the most common is d1 and second is d8 and vice versa for black.
> Healthcare workers are now told to remove any indications that they work at a hospital for their own safety.

This seems like a really weird narrative. Why would people who are protesting vaccine mandates be against healthcare workers? They aren't the ones keeping the mandate in place. There's a tenuous connection with them being the ones to administer a vaccine if someone decides to get vaccinated but it's not like attacking a healthcare worker is going to accomplish anything. A lot of the people engaging in this protest have already been vaccinated, what's their beef with healthcare? Honestly, this just seems like spin that's aimed at creating two opposing groups.

This is a textbook strawman. We're talking about a specific situation here, so stop trying to invoke entirely different situations to defend it.

The fact is that this has turned into an occupation. It's not reasonable to expect GFM to fund that.
I said P2P, not TOR. With P2P systems you only host your own stuff. So if they want to take someone to court it would be the person with the illegal content on their system... IE. who you want to go after. There is no reason to have to prove anything. Those P2P filesharers that are taken to court are the ones sharing the files, not just random people on the network.

With P2P and Federated systems (encrypted or not), the people hosting the content are breaking the law and are the ones you go after. Just like now (pre Earn-It), where they go after the people posting the files to the central servers and not the central servers themselves.
