My kids (who go to a public school) have received what I consider thorough instruction on avoiding online scams and other kinds of danger. It sounds like YMMV, unfortunately.

But the main takeaway is that education doesn't make people scam-proof. The link at https://www.bbbmarketplacetrust.org/story/39089233/research isn't working as I type this, but Cracking the Invulnerability Illusion: Stereotypes, Optimism Bias, and the Way Forward for Marketplace Scam Education is a really interesting research paper on this. (I've pinged the author and will post a working link when she responds.)
Then Windows NT is emulating Win32.

Also, back in the day emulators emulated the CPU for sure, while an API implementation wasn't never called "emulation". Ever.
I wonder if it’s the plant kingsfoil is based on in LOTR.
well not so uncommon, there are plenty of posts everywhere before it's taken down. If you use wechat the amount of 'read before deletion' are just a major category of gossips. I sometimes wonder do people outside of China really know the chinese 'domestic' circle well or am I so out of touch now? Also imho people don't tend to go 'against' the highest level government since it's very abstract. It's the everyday stuff that people care, which means local authorities that almost never get involved in any internationally focused affairs.
Looking back on this comment, I probably should have included that this happened within the last month, as if we haven't had 20 years of practice figuring this out.
From your link:

"The middle class still gets its preferred policies enacted 26 percent of the time even when the rich are opposed."

Gee, thanks!

Most of this "debunking" rests on the idea that the tiny minority of rich people should have about the same amount of power as the rest of us, so it isn't so terrible that they actually have a fair amount more. That just doesn't make sense to me. Anyway, the fact that a few people have a few quibbles with a few minor details doesn't amount to "that study is false".
Who said they didn't?

I used to use FreeMind a fair bit, essentially as a hierarchical set of lists. This tends to fall apart a bit when things start not fitting into a neat hierarchy, so I fell out of using it. It also isn't well suited to longer-form notes which I found myself wanting to mix in.

I'm quite interested in this sort of note taking organisation: https://notes.andymatuschak.org/ - it seems to better fit my internal thought process before bending it a bit to fit a mind-map application... I've not found something that quite works that way UX wise (his code is not published) and it'll be years before I get around to trying to write my own! There are apps out there that seem to enable implementing that sort of note making and linking method (https://github.com/churichard/notabase, and others mentioned in comments in the thread https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29969757) that I meant to try out when I have a bit of tinkering time.
The people I am responding to are fixated on Twitter. If you want to change the subject, I'm happy to oblige.

K-12 education is being politicized in as far as believing climate science was politicized.

If you think that college admissions are being politicized, you must have no idea how graduate school admissions work. It has not changed in decades. Whether changes to undergraduate admissions has an effect on scientific output is a statement that requires evidence. Until I see evidence, I consider the alternate hypothesis that increasing admission rates in communities that have few college graduates could decrease crime and increase general academic achievement and scientific progress to be just as likely.
Not to mention this past week sure has put that boogeyman into perspective.

The comment I responded to held fusion up as an example of something that sparked the imagination. I'm just pointing out that it's a sad example and we have far better and more inspirational examples. mRNA and CRISPR are great examples of that; those are real breakthroughs.
"so the lab must have done a lot of work to it"

That's sort of the core misconception right there.

People don't understand that what we do in labs is pretty much just small scale incredibly shitty hacks that use exactly what nature does, but we can't possible scale it up.

When labs do "serial passage" experiments that is just emulating nature and evolution and natural selection. We're changing the fitness function the virus needs to live within and then passing it through a dozen or so animals and seeing mutation and selection at work in the output.

We can't do that on the scale of million or billions of animals in a lab. Serial passage through a million animals, however, is just another Wednesday afternoon to natural evolution.

The white tailed deer in the United States are now a huge bioreactor doing a serial passage gain of function experiment to produce deer-adapted SARS-CoV-2. It is possible that Omicron came from a similar natural experiment in rodents.

All our factory farmed animals are just large bioreactors for serial passage / gain of function experiments with millions of animals.

No lab can ever scale up to those levels.

NAFTA was passed in the very early days of the internet. Here's a great quote about it from former presidential candidate Ross Perot via wikipedia:

"We have got to stop sending jobs overseas. It's pretty simple: If you're paying $12, $13, $14 an hour for factory workers and you can move your factory south of the border, pay a dollar an hour for labor, ... have no health care—that's the most expensive single element in making a car—have no environmental controls, no pollution controls and no retirement, and you don't care about anything but making money, there will be a giant sucking sound going south. ... when [Mexico's] jobs come up from a dollar an hour to six dollars an hour, and ours go down to six dollars an hour, and then it's leveled again. But in the meantime, you've wrecked the country with these kinds of deals."

Perot was from Texas, and mocked by corporate media as a clueless hillbilly for suggesting that NAFTA would be a bad deal for Americans. It was one of the few issues Noam Chomsky and Rush Limbaugh and all the major unions agreed on. Trump, whether sincere or not, uses it as one of his main talking points because it is absolutely true. Selling out our capacity to manufacture our own goods has been a terrible choice for Americans. We can't make the things our civilization needs to function. We have hollowed out entire metro areas and replaced steady paychecks and fairly cohesive social units with "gig" work and broken families.

That's a long way of saying their memory is accurate, but I think it's a critical moment to understand in modern US history. NAFTA was a big fucking deal, and the owners of corporate media spared no one to make sure it would get passed. They understood the power it would give them in terms of wealth accumulation and bargaining power to beat down unions and wages. Everyone thought Clinton wouldn't capitulate since it was unpopular with Democrats, but Clinton was attracted to and further corrupted by Wall St power and depended on them for guidance.

For a lot of Americans, NAFTA was the beginning of the end of their community. They are still pissed off about it, and that's the reason the criticism of the Clintons can turn vile in certain circles. It's not entirely unearned. I don't like the Clintons, though I voted for her as the lesser of two evils in 2016.
reduced social interaction in a suburban setting could simultaneously explain both the psychological harm to young men and the elevated 'way worse' things in cities.

2) if you're a non-profit, how come MinIO is your "closest competitor"?

As a former homemaker this comes across as tone deaf. From my experience, you might as well have just said, "You can always hang out at a PTA meeting."

Being a homemaker can be incredibly isolating. Homemakers need meaningful adult interaction and relationships that are not centered around their children or exclusive to their spouses.

For some reason these days I just expect "support" for large tech companies to mean a page of FAQs or maybe a chatbot. Maybe it's just all the bad press about bad support experiences.
Mmm, what stability are you referring to? I'm 34 and pretty much all men I know is in pretty bad situation.

I bet here in HN most people has a somewhat functional family, some savings and decent wages. It's not my case or the case of most of the people that I know.

And yes, in general men seem to be doing worse than women, although Spain may be a bit of an outlier here.

By my own account, I've grown poor. Meaning, that there has been times where I didn't have to eat. Not like I couldn't afford food that I liked, just that there was nothing in the fridge, no money to go buy anything, and I was queued for help (which by the way, it was almost all the time provided by NGOs...).

In the long way of getting out of poverty, I was offered barely any help, and, in hindsight, pretty poor guidance and counseling. I should have been told to study IT-related stuff given my predispositions or some trade, but oh well, it is what it is.

Now, of course I also had female friends in a similar situation. I'd say they had better counseling, better opportunies and above everything, which is a taboo here in Spain, there where more resources for them AND they had an easier time finding low-wage jobs, which is fairly important when you're at the botton of the society.

Now some of them are public employees. Which is kind of surprising given that I can't see how I would be able to study about two years full time (it's pretty difficult to get a position) or any of my friends. I mean, I know how that happend, they've got money that I can't qualify for because I have a penis. There are plenty of places where being a female gives you extra points by law, so I guess some of that benefited them too.

The major difference between me and my male friends is that I've got an stable contract in a telco contractor when I was about 24 (HelpDesk). I kept costs low and saved as much as I could. This saved my life. Liking computers saved my life. If it wasn't for that, I'd be who knows where, maybe homeless or in jail.

And I'm here now with 34 learning programming (thank you so much of all the volunteers that make this possible, in particular for the folks of Stanford Code in Place and The Odin Project).

Does this sound bad? Well, I know, I think 2 guys that are better off than me. One had a working class but functional family, and went to study physics, so good guidance and enough money. The other one had a hard time but eventually did the equivalent of community college and works as a consultant for wireless solutions. Everyone else is fucked up, and if look at the numbers in Spain I bet it will back up my observations.

Programming is a team sport. It's not about the individual, but about what the team can output. Competitiveness can be a liability.

Most projects have parts that require some cleverness, but most of it is grunt work. You may not be the fastest, clever or ambitious guy, and still be a key player in a team.

As long as you get shit done somewhat predictably you should be fine. If you really want to get better, understand where your value is.

You don't need to be great at everything, just at the important stuff (that is, important to the business), understand why they pay you, it's usually narrower than what most people think.

Regarding manufacturing jobs I really loved this freakonomics podcast[1]

> Interviewer: Ah, the lovely language of economics once again. “Costlessly reallocate to their next best opportunity,” meaning that some American who loses his manufacturing job just hops over to the next good job, which just happens to be available, near where he’s already living, and for which he just happens to be perfectly qualified for…

> Economist: That’s not what we see. We see those falls in manufacturing employment correspond to about equally large falls in overall employment rates over the first 10 years in those trade-impacted locations. So every half a point that manufacturing falls, we see a total decline of about a half a point. So some people are leaving the labor market, some people are going into unemployment. Some people are going on to disability. And so the reallocation process seems to be slow, frictional, and scarring.

This is the usual rewriting of history. It is an extremely modern trend to try to blame the caste system on the British. The British weakened but tolerated the caste system because there would have been immediate revolution had they even thought about removing it. The British were also firmly nationalists who believed that foreign cultures had the right to administer themselves in the way they saw fit.

Well I used to be able to control the ABS on individual wheels with VAG cars (Audi, Bentley, Skoda & VW) in the mid 00's.

I could make a VAG car hand brake turn going into a corner all from a computer remotely, just by switching on the ABS braking on the rear wheel on the opposite side to a turn. I could control the throttle remotely as well.

Take this as constructive feedback.

I don't doubt your intentions but these guarantees don't hold their weight relative to the sensitivity of the data that you will safeguard. Despite the process happening programmatically, developers will still have access to the backend where this occurs. Who has access to this backend? What's stopping any of your engineers from peeking at the database where the credentials are stored? Is this data encrypted at rest and transit? What sort of information is this process logging to either first-party and third-party services? Will the code be audited? What sort of compliance certifications are you planning to obtain?

Maybe you do have answers to these questions so if you do I suggest that you communicate how credentials are properly safeguarded. The guarantees that you mention in this comment don't inspire confidence as a) they can't be taken at face value b) makes me doubt you are taking the due diligence required to manage this data.

Take a look at these examples of companies supporting their claimed guarantees:

Yup. That's what they say.

Among other things, Shodan was showing their public facing server as vulnerable to a known exploit several weeks before the attack.

The same individual is being interviewed across multiple newspapers and constantly repeats it was a state-led attack without providing any technical details about what happened.

We have been searching for three weeks and I think a friend finally found someone whose parent's data may have been in the database. If it is confirmed, we only need to convince her to get one of her parents to file a lawsuit. There are several lawyers here who will do it pro-bono. This could be the only way to finally get the truth behind this intrusion.

That's a dangerous gamble. The data tracking and privacy concerns aside, users are going to be mad at the additional friction that involves. They might get mad at Apple for making the enablement of sideloading an uneasy process (lots of disclaimers about how insecure it is, etc.), but they'll also get mad at Meta for pulling their apps off of the store for no discernible reason. Meta would have to offer more than the existing service they're getting from their current apps, to convince users to do this without losing goodwill.
I do the last thing as well! I essentially use docker compose files as glorified installer scripts.

Back in the day I would have installed whatever software comes in the container by hand, then set up a service with systemd / cron or whatever. Nowadays I just set the container to start at systemboot.

Works pretty well for me so far and unlike scripts the docker containers so far never failed to just set up and run.
> but it’s a little dismissive of openembedded

I don't really see it in the article.

I use OpenEmbedded for my projects, but I never recommend it to beginners as the place to start. Buildroot is unquestionably easier to get started with and use for one-off projects (unless you're trying to use vendor-provided Yocto/OE layers, in which case obviously it's not an option).

The article's conclusion about Yocto is spot-on, in my opinion: If you're quickly iterating, Buildroot is the way to go.

I think Minecraft's open, moddable, hackable, and self-servable nature was one of the things that made it wickedly successful.

Well we've done the (more direct) question and answer in reverse here really!

Balancing is one part of the answer (I think it would be fair to say it doesn't necessarily have to be - or at least not obviously look like - double-entry).

You could argue immutable (append-only) records help too - no amendments only additional corrective records.

You can reduce that entire essay to "Does an AI have agency?"

And the answer wouldn't change: "Not unless we know it has independent subjectivity and self-awareness."

It always comes down to qualia. Our model of agency is based on a certain set of subjective experiences we take as working definitions of both self-awareness and free will.

We assume that other humans operate the same way. We can't know for sure, but life gets very complicated - and difficult - if we assume we're sentient but everyone else is just a meat robot. So assuming other humans have similar experiences is a reasonable position.

This breaks down with mechanical intelligence, because we can only understand it through visible behaviours. And of course you can have agency-like behaviours without human-like qualia and subjective awareness.

I strongly suspect this is not a solvable problem.

You can imagine some kind of hypothetical (magic) tool for measuring consciousness objectively. We can choose to believe in sentience, or we can choose not to. Neither position can be justified without objective measurement, and that isn't available without a magic device.

But even if it was available, the device would be paradoxical. The output of any objective consciousness measuring device still has to be experienced subjectively, which means it may be unreliable.

So - unsolvable.
Film is ridiculously expensive and time consuming, and at the end of a film you throw everything away just to do it all again later. (I painfully know this as I've made films.)

With the GPU and ML revolution, this entire industry is ripe for automation and disruption. Everything from scripting, camera work, location scouting, set dec, editing, and effects. 2D animation, 3D animation, and live action.

In the future, kids will be making their own Star Wars films in their basement over the weekend. This will put a big dent into IP as well.
