I get the appeal of having structure, but I only think it works if it's voluntary to sign up for it. What you're describing sounds like a voluntary military enlistment (communal exercise, job, house, food, medical care, retirement, and disability), except with access to video games, alcohol, drugs, and Facebook (and also more hours).

However, the system will fall apart if it's mandatory for all. People will shirk their 32-hour work week, do the bare minimum for 8 hours mandatory education (e.g. clicking through modules super fast, or Googling all of the answers), make their own video games (which would be great), go through the motions of mandatory exercise, brew alcohol, grow or synthesize drugs, and create their own social network, even via amateur radio.

The counter-culture sounds a lot more fun. Also, the utopia is incompatible with people with dreams of becoming game developers, people who critique expensive wine, and people who spend a variable amount of time self-learning on their own, versus fixed hours.

The imposition of how a person spends their time is a separate principle from guarantees of a job (an income guarantee is preferred, because a lot of people will effectively and potentially rationally do the bare minimum/no work at the job), housing, food, and medical care.
You missed the nuance in the criticism of GitHub's UI. The issue is not the presence of a roadblock, but that the same roadblock is put up regardless of how "actually" destructive the action to be taken is. The same roadblock should not be used to guard against both benign and severe consequences, else you have no real way of telling what lies on the other side of the roadblock you're plowing through.

Gah, I like nearly everything about this, except that a single USB-C port is a showstopper for me. I've gone whole-hog USB-C over the past 4-5 years, and at this point I only have one thing (an old mouse) that connects via USB-A (I've permanently connected an adapter to it, so it's fine with USB-C as well).

The other thing is the 1080p screen. I have that on my XPS 13, and it's... fine, but not great. The laptop I had before it had a higher-res screen, and I liked it much better, though I'm sure it negatively affected battery life.

The price point is pretty decent, though. Spec'd the way I'd want it, it comes to around $1550 pre-tax. Shame about the USB ports, though.
I also take interest in the scars you can see on satellite view. Besides the lines themselves there are many disused buildings.

"Art 6: “… actively disseminate positive energy, and promote the application of algorithms to be good.”"

It depends on who it is "positive" and "good" for. For the society, the government, or the user?

I would like to see algorithms that focus on the user. For that you want to have algorithms that are understandable and controllable by the user.

Unfortunately, this is not compatible with the algorithms employed for recommendations today. They use neural networks that are hard to understand not only to the users but to the developers of these systems.

Look at the abuse prevention technique used by DALL-E 2 [1]:
"Our content policy does not allow users to generate violent, adult, or political content, among other categories. We won’t generate images if our filters identify text prompts and image uploads that may violate our policies."

I worry that the algorithm regulation will focus on forcing recommendation systems to use similar controls and then those who control the filters of what is "not good" will effectively control what is acceptable to learn and talk about.

I'd like to propose an alternative - design the recommendation algorithm that gives control to the user to decide what is good for them. I'm building https://linklonk.com as an experiment in this area and the algorithm is detailed here: https://linklonk.com/item/3292763817660940288

Github stars are such a weird metric/thing. There are a lot of reasons i write open source code, but randoms on the internet who might not have even have used your project "liking" it, is not one of them.

That's not to say recognition isn't a motivator, it is. Github stars just seem like a really poor proxy for recognition.

Youre right speed is king!

Like most 0 to 1 it depends on how little tech I can get away with in the tech stack.

For example https://cashflow.vc is csv files on gumroad. It was the minimum viable version to test if people would pay for it. Will likely upgrade it to a combination of nocode tools next (paytable is the frontrunner)

However for a Crypto related project im going up one level to Nextjs + Hasura as it gives me just enough control to meet all the user requirements but still gives me a development speed boost over if I grabbed nodejs, python or elixir for the backend.
Not in metal manufacturing, but semi-knowledgeable with some professional interest.

Metal is machined by cutting tools. The two machine tools that I'd guess are most closely related to this are the shaper (which is totally unrelated to a wood shaper or the confusingly named Shaper Origin) and planer (which is almost completely unrelated to the wood planer, except in rough concept).

Both work by dragging a cutting tool against a workpiece and removing a chip. Both are reciprocal and step over between strokes to cover a wider workpiece surface than the width of the cutting tool. You'd be very unlikely to see either taking a chip this wide in, say, steel because you'd need an immense amount of power and rigidity in the machine to control the cut.

I don't think either typically does any movement in the z axis through their working stroke, and I don't think the stroke typically changes it's starting point along the axis of the stroke.

Nonetheless, the very basic motion and chip formation is close enough that one might reasonably come up with the skiving motion from either of them if it didn't already exist.

Skiving, incidentally is also a term in leatherworking where, as I understand it, it's an operation that reduces the thickness of a piece of leather by slicing action.

I don't know if tapering the end of a leather piece is also known as skiving, or if there's a more specific term for making a slicing cut through the thickness at an angle.

Oxygen Advantage is a great book. I'd recommend James Nestor's - 'Breath' [0] as a first read, however. I feel like the book has more real world application and I picked up a number of things outside of what I learned studying Hof breathwork. I also studied, prior to both books, with Wim Hof in Poland in 2017 on one of his week long expeditions. The in person experience of group breath work is something to experience if you've never. It's so much different than working on it solo - especially if you're new to any of these methods.

Breath work and cold exposure have been a large part of my life after reading 'What Doesn't Kill Us' by Scott Carney [1]. That was the book that drove me want to experience it first hand.

The article is calling BS on this exact paragraph. Replacing 12% of the electricity supply with something other than Russian gas, along with the other measures being taken, is enough to eliminate 100% of Russian gas imports.

Enough nuclear fuel could be easily shipped to Germany, unlike the necessary natural gas.
Stock price isn’t fixed. It’s based on how much you want to buy. Only the front of the order book is for sale at the quoted price. Everything after that is more expensive.

TWTR trading volume is I guess $1B - $2B a day (Y! says 38M units avg) shuffling stock between lots of small buyers and sellers. Musk wants to buy 25x to 50x that.

If you sell oranges, you might have them priced at a dollar each. The guy in the stall next to you thinks the exact same oranges are worth more. He prices them for sale at $2, and the guy next to him for $4. Neither of then sell anything though. A single person comes by for an orange every morning and that’s all the oranges that get sold that day in your town. This person buys their one orange from you and the town crier reports the ORNG stock quote as being $1.

If some rich guy comes along and says “I will now buy all the oranges from all of you”, the average price is going to be higher. The town banker advises you all that while their offer of $2.69 is high, you could definitely, ahem, squeeze them for more.

From 1976 to 2020, federal prosecutions led to only 11 people executed, and 8 of them were in 2020. https://sgp.fas.org/crs/misc/IN11474.pdf

In comparison, there were about 1500 from state courts. This makes sense when you realise murder is almost always prosecuted as one of 50 different state crimes. You have missed that I'm specifically talking about the US DoJ. State equivalents are entirely different organisations that I am not commenting on.

> DoJ accusation but no indictment > Do you mean, 'indictment but no conviction'?

No. Your little aphorism is true of many district attorneys but not of the US DoJ. I am referring to, e.g. statements by the FBI, which is a branch of the DoJ. The FBI in particular has a much more questionable history than the DoJ's criminal division, which handles prosecutions.

Finally, on this theme of distinguishing federal prosecutors from everyone else, no, I don't have as much confidence in all criminal convictions everywhere as you might have been thinking. But I have quite a lot in US DoJ's ones. I studied law, but not US law. I do know how they can mislead you. Feel free to take my word for it as far as that goes.

I'm tired about hearing about the lack of "explainability in AI" when the issue is with deep-learning & non-symbolic AI, the very allure of which to date has been its black-box, just-train-it nature, leading to all kinds of neat-o scary (truly) high-dimensional text and image trickery without the foresight of actually bothering to try to actually understand anything. We've had some pretty incredible explainable AI, planning & NLP processing, etc., in the past (1970's to early 2000's for the most part) that needs to act as the "prime motivator" to drive the DNN methods that really excel at processing at the periphery.

>Over the years, she says, doctors have repeatedly told EG that her brain doesn’t make sense. One doctor told her she should have seizures, or that she shouldn’t have a good vocabulary—and “he was annoyed that I did,” she says. (As part of the study at MIT, EG tested in the 98th percentile for vocabulary.) The experiences were frustrating; they “pissed me off,” as EG puts it. “They made so many pronouncements and conclusions without any investigation whatsoever,” she says.

This pisses me off, too. The hubris of doctors and scientists is so profound, that they will complain to a person who challenges their preconceptions. Disgusting.

Ask HN: What should I do after getting my first new MacBook?
I finally bought a new MacBook Pro 14” M1 Pro a few days ago.

I come from Linux background and have been using mostly Arch Linux with i3. Any tips on how setting up my macbook as a developer machine would be appreciated.

Right now I’ve installed Home-brew and iTerm2 so you might be pretty sure that I’m going into that UNIX side of Apple, but I’m still eager to discover wonders of that “creative” or even “regular day to day usage” parts.

Any recommendations on software or even sharing dotfiles as examples would be highly appreciated :)
I can't tell if this comment is satire, I sincerely hope it is.
Sorry, I didn't copy everything but the pool is heated via gas.

>Nashville Electric Services records show the Gores in 2006 averaged a monthly electricity bill of $1,359 for using 18,414 kilowatt-hours, and $1,461 per month for using 16,200 kilowatt-hours in 2005.

>Nashville Gas Company billed the family an average of $536 a month for the main house and $544 for the pool house in 2006, and $640 for the main house and $525 for the pool house in 2005.

I am not aware of a renewable gas service but they might exist.

Pulling out his power usage from the electrical breakdown, we can see that he is still using 16,200kwh of power ~1.5 times the national average.

I don't care how much he is paying for is energy, I care that he is using energy in a wasteful manner(especially while telling others not to do the same). By excusing him by saying that he because he pays more that it is acceptable is the same as claiming that it is ok for someone pour bio-oil out because it was made using a green process.

One of the main reasons that Martin Luther broke away from the Catholic Church was because they sold indulgences. Meaning, if you were rich and you sinned, you could pay to be forgiven. That is a shitty philosophy, no matter if you view it from a religious, legal or environmental perspective.

Dell has sold their Linux-ready "developer edition" XPS 13 with a UHD+ screen for quite a few years now. (They max out at 16GB of RAM, though, unfortunately.)

Dell isn't quite as "open" as something like Framework or System76 (or Star Labs), but they at least sell their Developer Edition laptop with Ubuntu preinstalled, at your option, and claim the hardware is supported properly in Linux.

(I say "claim", because I have the 2018 model, with a fingerprint scanner with no Linux driver.)

After reading Wim Hof and James Nestor a couple years ago during the pandemic, I used their techniques in full while battling long Covid.

I had a blood pressure monitor and pulse oximeter on my bedside table that I would experiment with doing these various techniques and seeing my heart rate go down, my blood pressure go down, my anxiety would disappear, lung/chest inflammation would settle, and even oxygen levels increase up to 5%.

I did this primarily because Covid reduced my average running mile time by around 20%. I was hopeful that I could make a full recovery which I did and then some.

This new tool I believe saved my life, and I’m excited to use it for the rest of it.

> I'm curious how you came to regret it this much?

I'm not sure regret is the right word, but I am cynical because I was actively recruited by my university's CS dept. and it took me 2 years of study before I realized I was actually studying math, not computers, which was what I thought I was supposed to be studying. But I was mistaken, and it was too late to switch to CE and hope to graduate before the end of the decade. If I had been wise at 17yo, I would have known CE was what I thought CS was. Maybe I would not have worked in the field, but I sure would know a lot more about electronics and engineering, which was really were my young interests lay, I just didn't know any better.

Programming jobs pay pretty well, but if you have your CS degree, you can earn about 20% more starting out by landing a job as a computer scientist, or at least one that advertises for one. Programming is really a part of the IT field, but computer science isn't necessarily. For instance, the FAA uses computer scientists, so does the National Weather Service, so do major automobile manufacturers, the aerospace industry uses computer scientists. I mean, if programming is your thing, carry on, but you're actually limiting yourself if only seeking C++ programmer positions.
Super Mario Maker 2 is a good example of accessible level creation, but for other players the levels themselves are black boxes. Yes, it's easy to create and upload levels, but downloading and viewing other people's levels in the level editor is simply not allowed on a standard Switch. This is a problem since levels in general are not WYSIWYG: they use e.g. off-screen mechanisms, hidden blocks, and overlapping entities.

It took over two years before 3rd-party software could break Nintendo's DRM and give players the privilege of seeing how someone else's level works:

Ask HN: How are you coping with wall to wall Zoom meetings?
I’ve long been in the mindest of gutting it out through the long emergency until things get better. But now that so many people are excited about remote work, it seems like back-to-back Zoom meetings all day will remain the central experience of “having a white-collar job” until I’m able to retire. The days I spend collaborating with remote workers leave me in pretty bad shape by the time the last call disconnects. I find I’m not able to relax and enjoy the evening, or to transition into being productive on anything else (work or personal). I just feel like shit.

It seems many people on HN actually love this kind of life. Do you feel similar effects? How do you manage them?

I apologize for my comments then. This is very surprising to me on both counts but I'll take your word for it.
Stop. You've said the same thing a dozen times in this thread. Besides being repetitive, you're overlooking the obvious fact that having associations from non members of private repos to those repos is problematic. At the very least at the UI level, maintaining known dead internal links is bad form. So you'd be creating edge cases for the UI and probably numerous places deeper in the tech stack as well. Which is fine if you engineer solutions to all the edge cases. Perhaps after this incident they will consider doing so. But it's certainly not as trivial as you imply.
Which is likely $54.20... a Rejection following by Elon dumping his 9% $54.20 will seem like a fortune
According to the picture in the tweet they actually have a sell "rating", meaning that they expect the stock to very possibly go down until it hits 30$ and therefore they recommend selling as a primary strategy to deal with current twitter stock.
