I think the most important thing is to pay attention to and take care of your own emotional and mental state. Reach for outside help when you need it, and be careful about avoiding a role reversal with your kids. That seems to be a common phenomenon with parents like this: they begin to seek emotional comfort, validation, and support from their children, rather than the other way around.

It would probably help to read that book itself to see if you notice any of those behaviors in yourself. If you do, seeking out therapy could help you learn to handle those issues in a more healthy way.

And all that being said: being a parent is incredibly hard. Be forgiving to yourself when you're not perfect. Even the best parents in the world find it challenging, and even their kids probably resent them while they're teenagers.
> the board also has a responsibility to protect minority shareholders from people exactly like Elon [...] they may quite reasonably believe that a vainglorious egomaniac who has been repeatedly sanctioned by the SEC may, in fact, not be the ideal owner of a social media company.

This was covered towards the beginning of the podcast. Legally, the role[1] of the board in this situation is to get the best stock price, and not about the future fate of the business.

Not going to respond to the unnecessarily rude tone here generally, except to say that any argument you want to have taken seriously is better not couched in terms of "hardons" and "jerking itself off". If you are a teenager, consider trying not to sound like one. If you're not a teenager, consider trying not to sound like one. Either way, this kind of communication is why you're likely still not taken as seriously as you could be.

Also you're taking it all off on an angry tangent about the HN audience when I am talking about buyers (I meant including institutional buyers, not end users, and I didn't clarify that enough but I would have thought the focus on architecture would have made it clearer) but:

> I don't give a single crap if my workstation uses up 600W to run a 5900X and an RTX3070 (or, well, if I could find one, but shhh).

I would. Between this April and next April my energy bill will double, and it is unlikely to ever fall back to where it is now. Power consumption matters A LOT in Europe right now. Corporate buyers will have to care about that, for the long term.

> 3/ People actually upgrade their hardware and don't rebuy a macbook pro every two years like half of this forum does.

No, they really don't upgrade their hardware, in fact. Almost no computer buyer upgrades through anything other than replacement.

But I'm using a seven year old, secondhand MacBook Pro, so I'm not the target of your comment.
What a pleasant surprise, I know the author from somewhere else. Small world!

Very enjoyable read and even more interesting results. 4 Minecraft servers per 10000 people in Germany is kind of insane to think about.

What was the number 2? The author made it sound like it was the US, but that has 4x less
Both are bad and when some crisis happen, some endogenous (economy devastated by few profiteers, for instance), some exogenous (like depletion of natural resources) they are the most classic response to save ruling class in position and sometimes in skin, but at least a small scale war provoke small scale damage for humanity at a whole, people who can/who anticipate the war can flee on time etc, to a certain extent they might even be a means of evolutionary selection of humanity. Large wars consume and pollute too much, with nukes that means potentially species-killing destruction etc

Even more dangerous things happen when the war is not a ruling class means to survive BUT just a business or mostly a business, that's why IMVHO private A/N&D companies should just exists for small weapons for civilians and nothing more. The rest should be a State-only production always kept but so expensive that a war is chosen only as extrema ratio. Private companies can only participate aside like providing steel etc to the State, BUT that at a fixed and low price high enough to avoid making companies failing but low enough that's not a profit even in a deep bear market case.

$30/month indefinitely adds up pretty fast. It's $360/yr or $18,000 over 50 years. It feels like pocket change to someone with stable IT employment, but it shuts out a fair chunk of the population.
Any reason to keep the general public from running arbitrary database queries? Yes, I think there is. For example, regular expressions are turing-complete so you can make a query arbitrarily slow without a single join.

Sorry is the "freedom of movement" clause the one that is immediately followed by:

> 3. The above-mentioned rights shall not be subject to any restrictions except those which are provided by law, are necessary to protect national security, public order (ordre public), public health or morals or the rights and freedoms of others, and are consistent with the other rights recognized in the present Covenant.

Or is there some other clause you are referring to that this is actually violating?
It's all fun and games until the NSA actually creates bird drones for spying on citizens for the sake of national security and any one who identifies them are labeled insane and have their rights stripped and shipped to a oil refinery in north dakota.
My understanding is that normal people have to find and manually block a lot of the content. That's why it can't keep up - because there's MUCH more content to block now than normal.

How much does a modular design really extend the life of a computer? Very few people (my father aside) are actively trying to keep computers from the 90’s orearly 2000’s alive. That my 10-year-old MacBook is still kicking is kind of a miracle (and only because I have harvested the guts from two others).

After some investigating, it seems that I was the one with the loose vocabulary. It seems that you are right and I was wrong in the use of the term “land-value tax”. What I argued against, and called “land-value tax”, should more properly be termed “real estate property tax”. I am sorry for the confusion.

Best illustrated, perhaps, by international man of mystery Austin Powers. Is there a remake in the works? Would be about time considering how the age of the film will soon be approaching the age the time it referenced had while filming. That remake would be quite meta retro, almost reaching the complicated stack of nostalgia layers in 2077.

Exactly! Many people underestimate the value of privileges'. Privileges' give "unfair" advantage. Anyway, there are many people like these and Elon is few among them that have successful ventures like Tesla or SpaceX.
For anyone not on a pro plan: I believe you can upgrade and still see the past two weeks of data. I cloned a few of my private repos last night to see how that affects my security logs and no logs appeared. I later upgraded to pro and visited /<username>/<repo>/graphs/traffic and can see the clone counts from before I upgraded. I also can see visitor counts from about a week ago. These clones still don't appear in the security logs though.
The most contentious moderation happens via subjective human intervention rather than an algorithms. Fully machine driven moderation is a black hole into which copious amounts of time and money from the r&d labs of the biggest social media companies disappear into every year for a long time now.

Experienced people don’t have time for that.
If you’re await’ing a variable directly in the same scope, of course self will be retained, you’re still running inside self’s scope.

I guess I’m confused by the question… if you want to await something and allow self to be freed in the process, you can use Task{ [weak self] } and then return early. If you don’t want to return early, you can’t really release self yet, since the scope shouldn’t outlive self.
The Udoo Bolt v8 is about the tiniest x86 "SoC" that I know that runs a Ryzen V1605B, 16GB of RAM and a Vega 8 that costs $500 and scores about half of the M1 Max in Passmark. Not too shabby for something that still has to deal with DDR4-2400 and storage far away!
chrome is a nightmare. Let's just accept the fact. Move on.
Same here! I would have one of the more senior people review my code, and I would review his. It was a small organization and we didn't have time to do the most thorough reviews, but it was good that someone else knew something about what was going on.

"Code reviews", in general, are a good thing for knowledge transfer. If they are done for nit picking and stylistic complaints, they are not terribly valuable.

WWe have successfully eradicated SARS, a respiratory virus, in the past. If we had actually responded faster we could have done the same.

China has averted 3 million deaths and most of the country has been free of lockdown for the last 2 years once they got the virus under control. That is "scientific reality". Claims that China's numbers are problematic, while probably true, are not the same as saying that China has hidden millions of covid deaths, which basically nobody who studies this believes.
I have been using the opposite approach of using py4cl to call Python libraries like TensorFlow, Transformers, etc. from Common Lisp. I bookmarked this blog article as a reference for sometime trying this out.

It seems like what is needed most often is interop between my code written with programming languages as much as using complete libraries written in different languages.

This is a weird generalization, I know lots of CS grads who can do those things and have done them professionally. Are you actually suggesting that CS grads can’t write sql queries due to their education?
> It's not homeowners vs renters, it's homeowners vs property developers. Property developers who, I can assure you, are perfectly capable of sticking up for themselves.

I'd argue that current zoning laws and processes encourage large developers. They are the only ones who can navigate the system.

That's why so much new construction in the last several decades (at least) has been by large developers who buy cheap land on the outskirts of town, cut down all the trees, build a bunch of identical cheaply made houses isolated from everything else, sell them all at once, and hand over management to a homeowners association where rules are enforced to ensure conformity.

> Power consumption matters A LOT in Europe right now.

Should have gone with nuclear years ago, our prices are stable.
> Sure, but all this is only within one space. The "internal language" is a formalism of that space, and not beyond.

This is incorrect:

You can swap encoders and final fully connected sections, then mildly retrain the network to substantially save on training effort — “transfer learning”.

Further, you can compose networks, eg image recognition on top of something extracting a structural map.

This implies that the structures they’re “learning” generalize to different contexts — with a bit of retraining. In much the way your knowledge of programming transfers between languages (swapping encoders) and tasks (swapping final connected network).

Your point seems deeply based on this incorrect understanding of DNNs.
I had the same problem so started this project, currently it just lists 70search engines, planning to review them after summer https://github.com/Tintedfireglass/search-engines
Totally agree here. Let me give you an example: I was reading the WSJ paper last weekend and there was half page article dedicated to complaining how Yankees games are spread across 5 streaming services this year. There was a quote that literally said “Now I am going to have to figure out where to watch the Yankees every Saturday morning” or something to that effect. Maybe not an idea for you, but pay attention to these things. You have to be intaking lots of information about the world and observe carefully
I have seen plenty of (usually junior front-end) devs resort to exactly this kind of cargo cult coding and magical thinking.
I feel like these days everyone should get a SSL certificate, especially Software related websites.
You could also just limit a query to max N seconds, and abort it if so.

I don't think "marketplace of algorithms" necessarily mean people need to be able to make arbitrary database queries either, but seems besides the point.

Having their own DSL for sorting timelines can also solve that problem nicely and within whatever performance requirements they would end up with.
In September 2021, speaking at an FDA meeting and identifying himself as CETF's executive director, Kirsch claimed that the vaccines "kill twice as many as they save"; the FDA responded that Kirsch had misinterpreted data and that there was no evidence his statement was true
I see what you mean. It should be possible to determine if there is an effect using the raw data from the experiment.
I new a guy in school with only one hand. He used the same keyboard at home as everyone else. Like most of us, he had taught himself to type as a kid and felt no need for special adaptations. Just like 99% of two-handed people, he would not want to invest the time re-learning how to type for a bespoke keyboard layout that won't always be available.
And then there's Dave Grohl. Not quite popular anymore but rocking harder than even with creative new songs.
Oh wow, kudos to you, not just for having to deal with that, and getting A removed, but for being so diplomatic about approaching him on the issue.

And yes, someone that lost is pretty rare, but I'd say lower-grade versions of non-transparency and making their work hard to follow is pretty typical (and frustrating).
This is really awesome! (Echoing other comments on this) and well documented too.

Besides being useful for light frontend work, it also seems like a great tool to introduce kids to.
IIRC that doesn’t actually happen if a native Promise is returned.
Twitter et al should/must let people opt-in to recommendation algorithms (opt-out being the default), and must have a "reset all recommendations" button present and visible at all times.

I don't care about the actual algorithm.
We can already look to Hong Kong for that.
I'll stick with www.photopea.com
A public squares doesn't imply an even distribution of influence. People are free to enter, and peruse the message of the speakers present, and speak themselves, and the result is typically a small proportion of participants amassing the greatest influence. What makes it public is that any one is allowed to speak, and hear the other speakers.
Well, in this case "their agenda" is helping people out of deep addiction. What do you gain by opposing that? We aren't disinterested third parties here pushing an agenda on other people, this is US, working for ourselves. Who are you?

Expecting people to abandon a belief that they can plausibly claim has saved their life because it isn't scientifically true is a radical ideology.

Very much good has come from it, true or not. If you think you can do better then pick up a shovel man, and get to work. Because one of the other things AA provides is practical advice on how to work with people you don't understand or like, towards the shared goal of healing and sobriety.
>"I have a growing pile of now useless phones even at my house that I never broke because I take care of my investments."

pile of useless phones as an investment is some rather novel idea.

I also have few old ones but they're not useless, each is relegated to controlling particular gadget. Camera, drone, etc.
Several reasons.

1. Absolutely incredibly complex architecture. The recommendation engines are not just single libraries that can be easily open sourced or transformed to a plugin system.

2. Recommendation engines exist to push up relevant metrics. These are either clear wins for users (like reported satisfaction), mixed wins for users and businesses (content engagement), or clear wins for businesses (ad engagement). Most businesses aren't thrilled about subbing in systems that degrade metrics.

The public appetite for genres comes and goes — superhero movies were big in the 90s, too — but I do think you're right that the recent development of "everything (mostly), all the time (mostly), on-demand (mostly)" availability of content at least partially confounds this cultural rhythm. My kids are nearly teens and have never intentionally listened to radio, which drove and reflected popular music tastes when I was a kid.
> This is the fourth interview McIndoe has given as himself, not his conspiracist character.

The fact that he occasionally does sincere interviews and then goes on to (back in character) deny that the interview took place seems a little unhealthy. I know it's all a big joke but it just feels like real people could fall into this satire conspiracy theory when he attacks the credibility of legitimate journalists.

Contrarians vs. Milquetoasts
Given Elon Musk's bold new leadership regarding free speech, how many years do you think it will take before the systematic squelching of contrarian viewpoints on various social media forums will generally be considered to be the weak-minded, stodgy, atavistic routine that it is? Is Musk heralding a new return to adulthood after years of forums that pander to the status quo milquetoast? That would be very welcome news for those of us who know how to think.
Interesting, seems like my companies have been pretty relaxed then.

Eh, there are usecases where SSL/TLS doesn't add any value (in terms of security). Software repositories that only serves packages that are already signed (and verified before installing) for example could be served over http or a piece of string even.

I think it would need to be a very low-profile low-weight mechanical key switch and cap combo for it to feasible in this setup. Scissor switches seem more ideal for this sort of thing layout-wise. And I'm typing this from my GMMK with Glorious Panda switches and thicker XDA profile PBT keycaps.

What you're saying is true, and note that land value tax is different than existing property tax in what exactly it taxes.
Not saying the President himself would be nuked, but that killing the President is the first move in at least one first-strike scenario.

As part of deterring a first-strike, the Secret Service has to show that the President cannot be killed even by a substantial and sophisticated ambush. It has to be ready for weapons like these Javelin missiles that killing tanks in Russia.
It doesn’t hijack your data
Sounds like you don't often drive outside the a city. I live in a county with a _significant_ Amish population and am well accustomed to non-motorized vehicles on the road. The difference between the Amish and most cyclists is that they recognized that they're vulnerable on their horse and buggy, follow the rules of the road, and they generally stick to the side roads whenever they can for obvious reasons.

I'm continuously amazed that HN, a site full of smart people, can't seem to wrap its head around the fact that riding a bicycle on a road with a bunch of vehicles is _inherently_ more dangerous for the cyclist than it is for the driver.

Should drivers pay attention more? absolutely. If I had a magic wand to wave that would instantly add separate lanes for cyclists I would but the fact is that America's streets are mixed use. It's all well and good that the driver of the car is "responsible for not hitting you" but what's that matter if you get killed or paralyzed because your hubris demands that you be able to share a shoulder-less road with tractor trailers?
> I'd rather give most of the surplus value to governments instead.

Sure. But are you arguing that all use of current buildings are already at their theoretical maximum profit limit, and therefore no real estate property tax could incentivize landlords to convert a building from a museum to, say, lofts? If so, I am doubtful, but I have no evidence to present against your position.
I've never really been persuaded by the 'facts are more important than feelings' statement. At best, it's an apples and oranges comparison in most cases. People don't typically claim they feel creationism is true, rather they take creationism as a fact. Similarly, the fact that I feel this way is nevertheless a fact, one which we take on good faith many times a day in person and online. If someone tells you they're angry, we're usually justified in believing that fact about their mental state. The degree to which we're skeptical of that claim is heavily influeneced in turn by epistemic trustworthiness and epistemic justice.

I think GP's point is that being or not being non-binary is unfalsifiable. I don't have a horse in that race, as I'm not sufficiently informed on the topic. However, it's important to note that (i) falsifiability is not the only reason to believe something and (ii) there is serious criticism of the idea that a statement must be falsifiable to be considered scientific.

I accept that someone is non-binary the same way that I accept that someone is a man or woman. I haven't had any issues with it so far, and it has the added bonus of making people feel validated, accepted, and comfortable around me, which is also a benefit to me in turn.
Your thinking is human hubris in full force.

Humans ability of conceptual modeling is entirely constrained by their perception. Humans can't conceptualize a tesseract. All of their conceptualizations are in some form related to their perception.

When you're thinking of a pen, are you thinking of the atoms, molecule compositions and all the quantum effects going on? No. Your mind is, just like ML, working from a template constrained by your perception (visual, haptic, auditory).

Humans are more advanced than ML, but they are nothing special.
