I'm genuinely sorry if I offended you with my feelings. I tried not to, but clearly I didn't succeed. And in a context where everything seems to be treated as a value judgement, I should've been clearer.

There was nothing normative intended, and that's why I used the word feel. For brevity, I left off the bit where I regard my infinite ignorance (including sports, biology, math, religion, and fiction) as my own limitation, and one which I acknowledge limits my experience and interaction with people who cares and know more. Like my dislike of seafood. I don't blame the fish.

Since you identify specifically, let me be clear: Not less, just missing out on something I enjoy and learn from. My own ignorance and indifference limits my world, even if it is a necessary limitation I choose.

I'm sorry you feel judged. Snobbery is truly toxic, and my intent is inclusive. I apologize if my words are not.

You’re right, which is why I didn’t call it bad. I called it a cartel.

In fact I probably agree with their demands, but on its face this is a) not a strike and b) in need of authorisation or similar mechanism under completion law.

I wouldn't describe it as market forces when the organisation they're opposing is a platform with monopoly power. Etsy has fiat power over anybody on their platform.

If we're talking about the generic concept of a cartel that encompasses basically all special interest groups, then yes they're a cartel - but they're not a business cartel in the same way that Phoebus group were. The power imbalance puts them in a position more comparable to a labour union.
No, by that definition, anything that moves is a robot. A rock rolling from a hill would be a robot. This makes "robot" word useless.

Historically, the main argument for Finland in particular is that joining NATO would risk a war with Russia.

The Ukraine war changed this calculus by showing that Russia would invade a country that wasn't even being considered for NATO membership.

Unrelated to disks, but welcome to the world of MIL-STD.

Dump a hundred million dollars on a standard that's effectively meaningless.

Ten, twenty, thirty years later, we still don't know what "The Standard" means, but the checks spend just as good as any other, and now you have this whole industry of Standard Priesthoods who can read the entrails and make pronouncements. Priesthood's a solid career track, and now you need priests to check on the priesthood.

The number of people incentivized to look under the carpet, realizing the entire methodology of the Standard is, at best, incomplete? Take a guess.

We'll be circling this drain for a while yet, I imagine, until the stuff actually goes into combat against someone with the same types of toys. I'm not filled with confidence.

Seems like there's an opportunity here for a smaller scale marketplace to move in and provide artisan makers what they actually want. One could build a business around "white glove" onboarding of sellers; meaning, you actually have a conversation with the seller and confirm they're producing authentic goods, build a profile for each seller letting folks know who they are, and base the entire marketplace around authenticity. Is this a crazy idea? The argument against it is likely, "it won't scale", but I think and argument could be made that it could.

Maybe now is the time to start raising the bar on human and upcoming automated drivers.

Both could have to pass a driving test that includes challenging, difficult situations. Day, night, rain, snow, fog, heavy traffic, missing lane lines, simulated pedestrians (including small children) leaping out between parked cars, and more.

For further difficulty, both kinds of drivers could have to pass this within a x% margin of the fastest safe speed at which the maneuvers can be completed; no cheating by slowing down to traffic-disrupting speeds.

I enjoy seeing less affluent audiences use my product for free. It's hard to know who can who can't pay so you have to make an arbitrary call. In my case, I assume Android users can't pay and iOS users can. I have run some experiments and I have seen that this is mostly true

Headlights always being on was the biggest thing I noticed when I visited Iceland. It is so much easier to see vehicles even during a sunny day, they simply stand out much more. As a result, I always turn my lights on right after I get into a vehicle.

Since you seem to know what you’re talking about, I’m looking for some advice: I work for a large and very well known engineering company and currently our incredibly terrible workflow looks something like this: Develop locally using VStudio -> transfer repo to network drive -> login to tester via three layers of Remote Desktop Connections -> run and debug code live on tester RDC The tester setup is virtually all GUI based. It’s also located on the other side of Asia which is the reason of logging in via RDC. Is there possibly a better way of making this workflow more contained in a terminal/single ide environment, without having to jump through the RDC loops?
I think the worst part is where they murder political prisoners by removing their organs to transplant them to rich people from abroad.

Horrible things have been going on in China for decades but nobody dares say anything because we are dependent on their manufacturing.
I've asked experts repeatedly and have yet to hear back one example of where the Mearsheimer realism school predicted any international relations occurrence correctly in the past 30 years. It seems to have no predictive power as a theory. I think it only gets the traction it does for it's catchy misleading name.
I wasn't directly challenging your answer but the picture it painted. However, if scientists had to formally ask if SARS as a disease was eradicated or eliminated from the world, the answer would be no. I think the underlying question is whether China is on a fool's errand or not.

Officials helped SARS-1 along in doing what it may have done sooner or later without the (slight) intervention: disappear into the background then quickly become just another line that can't compete for hosts. This doesn't translate into a recipe for success. The end of SARS-1 was not necessarily an example where all the congratulations were warranted for defying the odds. The more relevant legacy is that epidemiologists acknowledged SARS already had an animal reservoir in bats, and the world was supposed to be preparing for its return to humans. That didn't amount to much of a guard at all, and governments were given carte blanche to get us out of the pandemic. As we now see in China, a government can always claim that its measures are necessary and they continue to save lives (and do no harm).

Honestly all the resellers on the site have driven me away from using it completely. Etsy would be wise to listen to these people at least for that part of their site experience.

You can absolutely build electronics in the US. China just does it cheaper, quicker, and in higher volume.

>I don't know why Etsy seems to welcome this

I've sold on Etsy for a while as a hobby side business. The change seems to happen after their IPO. It felt like pretty quickly after that there began a trickle of incremental changes. A rule that allowed "manufacturing partners" really opened a huge loophole though, and in general things went down hill rapidly over the last 2-3 years.

Yale's Climate Opinion Maps[0] would suggest that more Americans than not are with the majority of economists, also. It gets less complex politically when you pair it with carbon dividends, which return the revenue back to households.

It's also fun to compare the effectiveness of pricing carbon with other solutions using En-ROADS [1], built by MIT and Climate Interactive.

However, this is a national policy thing that requires our direct participation in politics. Our elected officials need to be hearing about this from an increasing number of citizens and, frankly, be put into a position of worrying about their re-election chances if they don't support it (and other robust climate policy).

> We have direct evidence that a European country can be attacked without NATO immediately jumping in to help. If Russia "only" wanted the Eastern "wilderness" of Finland, do you think the other European powers would immediately send in their own troops?

Well, there is the Mutual Defence Clause (article 42.7 of the Treaty of the European Union): https://eur-lex.europa.eu/summary/glossary/mutual_defence.ht...

So while the exact action is not specified there, an attack on Finland might already very well mean that some NATO states (and by implication all of NATO) would get involved in the situation you're describing.

Woah, hadn't heard about the murdering political prisoners and doing transplants, can you share a link to where I can read more?
It's completely stupid to compare the Cuban Missile Crisis with NATO expansion. You need to completely ignore history to do that. And the only motivation would be to justify the motives of a dictator, mass murder and war criminal....
Why don’t they just make their own site?

I don’t understand why people put their entire livelihood in random sites that can change their rules at a whim.

It’s easier than ever in internet history to host your own site and take payments and basically do the entire thing yourself.

Of course you don’t get the visibility Etsy provides, but isn’t that what you sacrifice?

> even during inference, the size of the parameters is completely dwarfed by the intermediate tensor representations

What makes you say this?
While this is ultimately somewhat true, it's a bit of a doomer perspective - knowing "some programming" is the gateway to learning other things.

When you see a list like "processors, memory, motors, sensors, etc" the first thought might be "Oh no I don't know any of that", but that's not a problem. Nobody starts off knowing it. You just pick a problem you want to work on and you start reading and trying things, usually failing over and over along the way until it works.

I only knew a little programming when I started on a web development career, and I just learned a lot along the way.
A bit of a tangent, but Etsy lost me (and likely some amount of other sellers) when they pushed so hard on free shipping. Not all products are amenable to this, and we wound up losing money on every shipped item under the new plans. Ebay also did this at some point in the past, with the same results.

Those two, and this example has me wondering why these companies continue to side with the buyers?
5a does have one, but it is annoying that this only seems to appear on budget phones.

My wife is an etsy seller, so I asked her opinion on this. TLDR of her response: "it is the people who don't take it as a serious business who are having issues with the etsy cut increase".

Basically, the ones who try to compete on price with the mass manufacturers (aka already low-balling their prices). The ones who make a living already have the etsy fees in their product prices so will just bump up accordingly and likely not loose customers.

That said, the demands listed are all ones she agrees with. The user experience of having to tell if a product is really hand made is bad for buyers and sellers alike.
> It somewhat reminds me of the proposals for larger and larger colliders in the hopes of seeing new physics that is always one collider in the future.

I agree with your main point, but think this analogy isn't an apt one. If you want to see what particles are created at higher energies you kinda need the bigger particle accelerators. (This isn't to say that we shouldn't be investigating lower energy collisions, but at a certain point you do need "bigger colliders" to see new things)
Citations seem to indicate this is actually enough! This surprised me also: https://www.fs.usda.gov/ccrc/topics/global-carbon. Indicates 400GT are in from forests, vs 800GT in the atmosphere. Some various sources seem to indicate that around 50% of forests have been destroyed by humans already (by area, not necessarily by carbon?). So if we could instantly recover all forests, and nothing else changed, that alone would reduce the atmosphere CO2 to preindustrial levels (it has almost doubled). I think the misleading part about "millions of years worth of trees" is that a very small percentage of tree biomass probably becomes useful fossil fuel, and the majority is recycled many times.

I guess developing BW film is more expensive because there's just less volume? Most people shooting BW film probably develop it themselves while it's way harder to develop color film without getting a full lab.

The price for 35mm per shot is a bunch less for me. And it seems like people still have stocks o their old 35mm film rolls I can get for free-ish. Developing and scanning was something like 17 euros for me.

Seeing I spent 4.5 months to fill up my current 35mm roll I think I can accept the higher price per frame.

Russian army has been revealed to be a joke, so I don't see the why all the rush to join NATO because of their fiasco in eastern Ukraine. We bordered USSR and they had a military that went toe-to-toe with the Nazi Germany; USSR military was a much greater threat and yet we brought them to stalemate and had enough deterrent to stop them from conquering us later.

Maybe this is just my dumb American in me speaking, but is this really a good way of going about as a "source"? I wouldn't* trust the average American's understanding of American economics as a "source". It's possible that Americans are just dumber than the average European, but I doubt Sweden is just completely devoid of ignorant people.

Not trying to call you ignorant (I don't know you), but I don't know that Swedish citizenship is a source in itself.

Very good points, and I think you're right on the numbers here! I went dependent spelunking - almost half of it is because is-even is a dependent (naturally) but then I didn't notice any dependents of is-even to explain it. I guess people do just google it and grab the module.

They weren't exactly thin margins.

Very interesting, thanks for clearing up my conceptions on this. I'd become quite familiar with the massive remittance use case of blockchain in Latin American countries with inflationary currencies and/or currency controls (Venezuela, Argentina) and assumed that Miami had adopted crypto in part because of how many inbound Latin Americans already used it as a medium of exchange.

Ask HN: What to do when code becomes an ad-hoc database?
A hypothetical company uses infrastructure-as-code tools to provision all of their infrastructure. Managing the resources becomes tedious, and an engineer builds automation that allows all of the infrastructure code to be generated by pipelines from modules. Now a user clicks a button in order to provision infrastructure. The engineers only look at a few lines of module code once in a while. The issue is that the automation is very complicated and costly, and the generated code and all of it's associated git repositories etc have essentially become ad-hoc data in makeshift databases; what once was human-readable code is now primarily concerned with tracking the state of the infrastructure.

It seems like we've come full circle. If I can automate my infrastructure in this way, can I skip IAC and just use a database to track my state? Who has experience with this kind of problem? I can't help feeling like we're really re-inventing the wheel and making a huge complicated mess here.
