I think the angle of these laws as well as the parenting response here in the thread are both wildly off because they both take a completely individualistic approach to something that's a systemic issue.

The litigation culture of having individual people sue for damage doesn't go to the root cause and is a bureaucratic and legal nightmare. Delegating something that is effectively an environmental issue to the responsibility of individual parents is like blaming parents for not protecting their kids from drinking lead water.

Technology and social media are ubiquitous, there's only an illusion of choice. It's digital infrastructure and the water we swim in. In fact the covid pandemic has shown that it is not even a choice as it turned into the primary means for kids to have a social life and education.

What's necessary is clear rules that align the behavior of companies with social ends. If they can't square making money with keeping public discourse healthy or not making teens mentally ill they need to be culled, it's that simple. Clear, strong and unambiguous legislation, rather than private legal threats will not harm the kind of entrepreneurs that build tools that are in the interest of the public. It will give them a better shot, just like environmental laws for cars have aided electric car makers. For every billionaire incumbent there are thousands eager to build good products to take a slice of the pie. The anti-regulatory argument has very little merit.

I'm not so sure that is true. I'd wager that Americans are suffering more than most right now due to institutional rot (or at least the perception and portrayals of it).
I think price discovery of materials can happen organically by ascribing some purchasing power, desire for end products, and usage rate to an AI-driven consumer.

We could start from a small industry, e.g logging, then gradually introduce downstream products and AI consumers.

There are also a lot of factory games in Roblox, and an interesting detail is that they are generally multiplayer and you are indeed interacting and competing with the other factories much like you describe. Hard to find the good ones in the sea of games though.

I've been trying to design a game that encourages people to be more social.

There is a meme that even when people get together IRL, they end up staring at their own phones.

So I've been wondering if a game can be designed to motivate people to gather together, then put down their devices, or at least look at the devices together. (Like forming a larger screen across multiple devices.) I think the game would be location-aware and cooperative.

Ideally the game would be a casual game so people could have conversations while playing the game. Either the game mechanics are simple so it doesn't require full concentration/attention, and/or only intermittent playing is allowed/required. (Like the game mechanics require waiting for something to happen.)

Can you actually use just the electric? I owned a 2016 Toyota Avalon hybrid that had the option to be electric only, but whenever I tried to engage that option, it gave me an error that I was either going too fast or too slow. I could get it to work for very short stretches (maybe 50 feet), but it would always disengage almost as soon as I turned it on. This was the biggest reason I sold the car.
> Is the celebration of impunity embodied in American action movies not popular around the world?

- "Or would the ensuing static charge of the spaceship render this infeasible?"

Back-of-the-envelope math says a large spaceship will reach 100 kV potential at a charge imbalance of around 1e15 electrons (total mass: 1e-15 kg). So yeah, completely unfeasible.

(It's asking the wrong question though. Electric thrusters aren't thermal systems, and aren't limited by molecular weight as severely as thermal engines are. You can get stupidly high Isp (>200 km/s) out of heavy ions, just by raising the voltage).

I worked at a startup and the CEO was obsessed with hiring at all cost. We, engineers, were all wondering what the hell these new hires were supposed to do. We did not need them.

Then they explained it to me. They needed to show growth through hiring in order to raise money.

I mean, I couldn’t even blame them, if that’s a criteria for VC to hand you a check, well you gotta do what you gotta do.

Needless to say this startup, eventually had to cut cost and end up firing most North America employees and replacing them with new hires in east Europe.

Self-audits never work, which is why there are regulatory agencies everywhere to 'double check' a company's work when ensuring legal compliance.

The real issue with this bill is that "addiction" isn't the same for everyone. The Twitter "trends" paradigm itself could be considered addictive if you really stretched it, maybe a 15 year old looks at it every waking hour of their day and goes through it all looking for tweets to reply to? Since the law doesn't only apply in a class-action sense, any parent could bring this to court with their anecdote and the court's main argument would be on whether that specific feature is 'addictive', not "addictive to all children".

For reference:

> An operator of a social media platform shall be found to have violated their duty if the social media platform is found to have addicted a child user by either of the following means:

> (1) The use or sale of a child user’s personal data.

> (2) The development, design, implementation, or maintenance of a design, feature, or affordance.

Rejection sampling is not a good choice here.

First, the cost is 2 FMAs * the cost of generating 2 random numbers * the number of rejection sampling iterations. On average, you reject (4-pi)/4 ~= 0.25 of the time. However, if you're running on a GPU in a warp (or the equivalent) of 32 threads, then you pay the cost of the maximum number of rejections over all the threads.

The bigger issue is that a direct mapping from [0,1]^2 to the disk, as is described in this tweet, if you have well-distributed uniform samples in [0,1]^2, you get well-distributed samples on the disk. Thus, stratified or low discrepancy samples in [0,1]^2 end up being well distributed on the disk. In turn, this generally gives benefits in terms of error with Monte Carlo integration of functions over the disk.
Disagree. Parent was discussing the need to reboot after a system has been on for a long number of hours. The failure mode, assuming it's related to the DRAM, would be an accumulation of bit-flips in the DRAM. Every memory has some FIT/Megabit rate. The on-die ECC added in DDR5 spec will be highly effective in addressing this failure mode.

Channel ECC is the ECC type most directly relevant for high clock rates and signal integrity aspects. I agree with you that Channel ECC becomes a practical requirement to meet the interface transaction rates of DDR5. It is also true that channel ECC is not mandatory in DDR5 and is not implemented by mainstream CPU platforms (like previous DDR generations).
I think you are gonna need to specify what countries you think are worth comparing, because there's not really a structured correlation between the lists you link (and among large countries, the US has relatively high religiosity and relatively low atheism, look above and below at your [1]).
> So, who gets to have guns then if they are confiscated from citizens? Only the elite and powerful?

I'm an Australian. The answer is anyone who wants to if you aren't on one of the usual lists (the same sort of lists US has). I know one person with 40 guns at home.

But ... there are rules. You have to have training, the sort of training you can typically only achieve by joining a gun club. You have to be registered. You have to have an approved gun safe. I think there is a regulation about storing the ammo separately. Nothing over the top, certainly nothing more burdensome than a car owner faces. Because it's not difficult we have our share of Olympic firearms champions, we have political parties called "The hunters and fishers party". It a wild guess, but I wouldn't be at all surprised if Australia has the same proportion of people who enjoy hunting with guns as the US does. All this is allowed, and our Olympic shooters are celebrated, just like all other sports people.

> What’s stopping these crazy people from using other means possibly even more destructive if guns are somehow eliminated? Do we ban cars, trucks, fuel, fertilizers, chemicals, and poisonous household products as well?

I don't know what stops them from finding other ways to kill themselves (suicide) and or others. But the statistics are pretty clear. They don't do it.

Which does make you wonder about the difference between the homicide rates in the US and the rest of the world. If there is one clear difference in attitude, it's this: owning a gun for personal protection is not considered good form any Western country other than the USA. And that unsurprisingly means people don't shoot each other as often, which translates to fewer gun homicides. For example USA gun ownership: 120/100 people [0]. Australia gun ownership: 30/100. So maybe 4 times any many guns in the USA. But gun homicides: 4.12/100 in the USA, 0.18 in Australia. 22 times higher.

To state the obvious: if the goal of "owning a gun for personal protection" is to keep you safer, it ain't working. In fact it's a disaster - the cure is far worse than the disease. The civil society in west is usually very good at digesting that sort of information, and acting on it. (They don't always act on it by banning or restricting gun ownership - Australia certainly didn't.) The fact the the USA's civil society hasn't managed that makes us think you yankees are a little odd.

That vid blew me away.
Yes I did slightly simplify. There is an exception for buying rifles and shotguns from a gun store, but that still requires passing a background check and everything. Also the rifle or shotgun must be legal in the state you reside. And it is illegal to privately sell a gun to a non-resident. If the buyer is from another state, you must go through an FFL.

The point I was trying to make is that people cannot take advantage of less restrictive gun laws in neighboring states. Almost every mass shooter either got their guns legally or stole them from a close relative (often by murdering that relative). There's no glaring legal loophole that these people are using.

Not true. You could leave and you could also enter - but would have to stay in mandatory quarantine.

I think the way we regard guns in Australia is important. They are dangerous objects that are either used for work, or as a hobby by a small number. To a very large extent we don't worship or slobber over them.

I've fired a gun on three occasions (I was an Army Cadet, I quite enjoyed the experience) and have handled realistic replicas (backstage on set of a theater show). In both settings they're treated as risky objects. You are handed the gun, you use it, and then you hand it back to be locked up.

My grandfather is the only person in my family I know who ever owned a gun. He used to keep it in the cupboard under the stairs. He handed it in to police to be destroyed long ago - he felt that he didn't need it, and that the most likely outcome of keeping it was an accident that he would regret.

Personally, I'm very happy to live without guns around. If I do want to shoot, I would be able to comply with the regulations in my state fairly easily. It's a bit of paperwork but no worse than, e.g. acquiring powerful lasers, or being allowed to enter an aerodrome for flight training.
That's just not true. It might not be seen in your particular country, but it's definitely not US centric. Canada, Sweden, and New Zealand are also countries where Chromebooks are sweeping education https://www.neowin.net/news/chromebooks-are-seeing-huge-adop...

And the reasons why are pretty straightforward. Kids can't really mess them up, they are highly sharable (eg laptop carts), they are cheap (generally), and they have centralized management for schools that's otherwise typically limited to enterprise markets.
Also "the only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun" has been an NRA talking point for years.
I think Ray Dalio does a good job talking about the decline of the American empire, but I'm not sure his huge bets on the rise of China are well-placed. India also appears to have a good case for "next big empire" and it is often the case that when two world powers fight, they destroy each other. For example, the UK and Germany in WWII - the UK won the war, but ended up in huge financial trouble that caused its decline.

That still applies for non-social media. My iOS IRC client connected to my znc bouncer also shows notifications. Same for iMessage which is more profile-like, since you can send memoji and stickers and play games with your friends (eg.

Similar. It's wild to realize when I was CEO of our startup, we had significantly less name recognition, dramatically less capital raised (by orders of magnitude), a much smaller team.

...and yet apparently significantly more revenue per employee than Bolt. Oh, and we were profitable, infinite runway, good growth, solid unit economics, LTVs we understood.

My daughter is younger and smaller than my son, but in any "fun sibling violence" situation she just doesn't stop hassling until she thinks she's "won" or us parents have to intervene. They never really come close to even danger of the spilling-blood-kind of physicality, but my daughter constantly surprises me with what punishment she's willing to risk just to try and "get the last one in". She's tougher than him.

The "gun as solution" psychology is definitely a large part of the problem.
The Researcher’s Guide for Being Mind Blown by a Neural Network
As far as I can tell the author is just making the tired militia argument while pretending to support an individual right. "Americans have a right to defend their homes". Defend their homes with what exactly? He immediately moves on to hunting weapons and the right to hunt. So according to the author, we have the right to own fudd guns, and the right to self defense (but not with guns, and not outside our home). Yawn!
Large multiplayer online games with limited play schedules that also have a limited total time, so there's more of a plot.

Like say you have one game that's 7PM-9PM three times a week for a length of three months. Sort of like how you might schedule a Dungeons and Dragons game, but a bit more frequently and with the benefits of online play and other computer things, whether they be physics, scale, graphics, mechanics, customization with material impact, etc.

That way there's no real penalty for joining late, you can just play the next game or find a game with a different schedule that's closer to the beginning, or do multiple games at once. Also perhaps hidden goals that can give you a bonus towards your next game, but they would only carry over for one game.

Space Station 13 does some of this with one hour scheduled games, but I'm thinking something halfway between that and an MMO.
I honestly don't see this as a symptom of that. Economic and tax base problems, where our best knowledge can point to us doing the "wrong" thing, or at least not doing the "right" thing, sure. Those objective things that we mess up are indicative of systemic issues.

Some people just aren't scared of guns, or of a world where everyone has one, regardless of the real risk such a world would entail.

Differences within the populace with regard to risk tolerance and perception doesn't tell you anything about systemic issues. It just points to cultural differences. That is itself an issue, but certainly of a different flavor than "declining empire". It could still tear things down, but it would be more explosion than stagnation and collapse.

> Do we need car control?

We have car control. Operating a vehicle requires a licence, training, registry and regular checks. Unlike owning a gun, which is inconceivable to everybody in the rest of the world.

Obviously there is criminal intent under all this but guns unequivocally amplify the impact. It's very hard to kill 25 people with a backpack of knives - this isn't a weekly occurrence, like shootings. You can't drive a truck down the corridors of a school.

I honestly don't know why we argue about this. Is there anything anybody could say that would change your mind?
