I think everyone knows that "diet" in a product name means it's healthier than the non-diet product.

It also does help with your health if you were going to consume the non-diet version of that product in similar quantities.
For this zero-shot approach, there's actually no "fine-tuning", and from what we can tell ~30 seconds is optimal (the text isn't actually even used... you can say anything!)

They knew it was so good that they even went through the trouble of remodeling the in-game gun to exactly match the look of the controller. The arcade gun is the same mold as the Virtua Gun but looks more generic in the game :)

It's interesting though how you had to re-implement a large part before you were able to discover the existing code that does what you had needed.

Discoverability problems are not specific to Rails, but may have something to do with convention over configuration, though.
I wish both the K9 and Thunderbird teams all the best. K9 needs some love, and so does Thunderbird, honestly.

I use Aquamail on Android and love it. Great feature set, works great with multiple accounts, lots of configuration options. It's not open source or free and I honestly do not care.

Back in the day it was something like USD 4. Now it's something like USD 25. Still worth it, and I don't mind paying for software if it keeps the developers in business.
The police were doing something. They were threatening the parents with tasers and arrests if they interfered. Does "all bets are off" mean that parents should have enough tactical force to subdue the police? In evaluating potential scenarios, is a shootout with the police on the table of possibilities?

The police even threaten parents with obstruction of justice and violating probation for merely talking to the media about running into the school.

There are ~16k total reachable bitcoin nodes out there, which means there are plenty of users are trusting 3rd party nodes.

https://bitnodes.io/

Having your own keys and using a wallet application that connects to someone else's node is better than keeping your coins on an exchange, but you're still relying on someone else's node to not screw you.

Compare the meager 16k nodes people trust with the 100 million who claim to own bitcoin.

In case you forgotten, you said: 'All crypto is a scam.' [0]

That means everything including anyone who is using it, or has holdings or are insiders which includes Stripe, Moneygram, Square (now Block) and especially Signal who are still directly involved in the entire scam. All the ones I've listed either got no backlash or did have some but never removed their crypto products, which certainly still makes them fully involved in the entire crypto scam as they continue to offer it.

Trying to give exceptions to companies like Moneygram and Stripe, Square, etc is legitimising their crypto offerings as a 'use-case' which contradicts what you said with it all being a scam, since we both know what they are offering is nothing but still a scam which they are all involved in.

There is no mental leaps here, No exceptions or any use-cases with that statement. If another commenter got the point straightaway [1], it is not hard to recognise that.

> That certain cultures do not prioritize education as much as others is not a point of contention.

That isn't. What is a point of contention is that you think they want to live that way and that this can't be changed. This was changed for many Europeans (and their descendants) long ago, though many remain superstitious halfwits who haven't yet been taught to think rationally and continue to do things like blaming people for their upbringing instead of fixing their environment.

> That very article clearly shows how that culture prioritises education.

And you seem to think that culture can't be changed. Nigerians in the west weren't always this way, and most Nigerians in Nigeria aren't this way.
> I wish more of the world could function like the culture adopted by the western airline industry where every incident and investigation is treated as an opportunity to learn and improve the system rather than an opportunity to lay blame.

I thought that phrase sounded familiar... the author's term is perhaps inspired by the article "Farewell, Millennial Lifestyle Subsidy" published in the New York Times almost exactly a year ago, which also discusses Uber pricing as an example. (it got posted several times on HN but without much traction).

https://www.nytimes.com/2021/06/08/technology/farewell-mille...

The Atlantic author in 2022 says "I call this the Millennial Lifestyle Subsidy", not offering credit to anyone else, but back in 2019 he was calling it the "Millennial Lifestyle Sponsorship", with that phrase linking to a tweet by the same person who later wrote "Farewell, Millennial Lifestyle Subsidy" for the NYTimes, seeming to offer him the credit for it.

> Yes, they are ready to use violence to enforce their rules, no that doesn't help them read my encrypted data/messages/transactionds if I don't give them the key.

You are mistaken. There is a technique called "rubber-hose cryptanalysis" which works wonderfully in cases like the one you described. Once applied, you will gladly give up your key and anything else they ask for. That's what violence means.

If you do not control real world then you do not control anything. There is no way around violence. At least for as long as humans have physical bodies and live off blockchain.

> unacceptable to have compliance enforced on us as the current financial system does

You are arguing that because the current system is excessively regulated, then a system with no means to enforce the rules will work better. The problem with that is that blockchain is a lot more expensive to operate per transaction that the conventional systems. Because of that it can only be used when the conventional system cannot be, specifically for circumventing the regulations, i.e. breaking the law.

> but I strongly disagree.

You say you disagree, but you actually agree. All the cases you listed are cases of "circumvention of regulations".

> We'll see.

It's been long enough to see. Believing otherwise is like believing that this contraption with a few more tweaks will produce perpetual motion.

> some forms of governance

It's either able to enforce the rules with real-world violence, or it is irrelevant. It's really that binary 0 or 1. Nothing in between.

> Not that I agree with this statement

It's basic math as in 2 greater than 1. It does not matter if you disagree with it.

> but if the alternative is round the clock surveillance and authoritarian enforcement of regulations

That's not the point. Blockchain is a tool that helps you circumvent regulations (good or bad authoritarian or not, does not matter). It's a tool which has only one use: to facilitate circumvention of regulations. The point is if blockchain is regulated then it's no longer a useful tool for breaking the law and consequently irrelevant.

That is the point yes. We have collectively decided that assassinating heads of state was pretty bad, and moved on to applying sanctions, so that if they hit hard enough back, said innocent people do need to get rid of the leader or the system that got them in such a situation.
> as if all animals were alike

Not as if all animals are alike. As if any animal that is actually alive, with a brain sufficient to fly, reproduce, eat, digest, observe, react, etc is much more likely to be sentient than a computer program.

> It should be no surprise that intelligence/awareness is a gradient from "zero" to "full", from bacteria to humans, correlating strongly to brain size / number of neurons

That's no surprise. So where, from "zero" to "full" does a computer program with zero neurons fall? And why would one argue for it being possibly sentient if one thinks that some actual animals with greater than zero neurons are not sentient?

The dollar is highly valuable largely from the promise of its central banks to repay debts - for which the US has a strong reputation of upholding. Now that the Fed is playing games with people's expectations of their plans for interest rates (to scare the market and lower demand without raising rates in proportion), they are also poised to devalue the repayment of their loans while indicating that they will not devalue those repayments.

So in combination with inflation that will not slow down as much as it needs to, the trust which made the U.S. dollar the global reserve currency in the first place is also eroding.

Inspired by the final statement from the article:

> "Inflation that is stable and modestly above 2% might be tolerable for the real economy, but there is no guarantee the Fed’s stance today can deliver even that. And breaking promises has consequences. It hurts long-term bondholders, including foreign central banks and governments which own $4trn-worth of Treasury bonds. (A decade of 4% inflation instead of 2% would cut the purchasing power of money repaid at the end of that period by 18%.) It might add an inflation risk premium to America’s cost of borrowing. And if even America broke its inflation promises in tough times, investors might worry that other central banks—many of which are looking over their shoulders at indebted governments—would do the same. In the 1980s the recessions brought about by Paul Volcker’s Fed laid the foundations for inflation-targeting regimes worldwide. Every month inflation runs too hot, part of that hard-won credibility ebbs away."

Ask HN: Electric RV Options?
This won't be taking place for quite some time (at least a year out, maybe more), but I would like to travel the US by RV for 6-12 months. Given the rising gas prices, I was wondering whether there are any options for electric RVs that I can buy. I've seen a couple[1] of options that have been announced, but they seem to suffer from the same issue that many other EV options have in being years out from the announcement and/or concepts.

I've looked into getting an electric vehicle (like a Rivian or F-150 lightning) and towing behind a camper trailer, which isn't a bad option per-se, but I'm just not sure that's the best option. It seems to me that the surface area on an RV is a wonderful opportunity for solar panels which is something that most EVs don't really have.

Any and all thoughts would be appreciated.

> If you remove my ability to protect myself am I not forced to rely on the police to protect me?

Gun control does not remove your ability to protect yourself. This is a false premise. Even in a world where the US government institutes mandatory buy backs of anything that looks like a gun, you are not completely devoid of options to protect yourself.

Statistically, aside from some very specific places in the US like the bad parts of LA/Chicago/New York, you are far more likely to die of suicide by firearm than you are of homicide by firearm.

>Why aren't [non-lethal weapons] ever suggested

They are suggested. Many people carry mace/pepper spray. Tasers are finicky and require a fortunate prong placement in the attacker, and the attacker to not be wearing thick clothing, or it just doesn't work. Stun guns require you to be upclose and personal with the attacker. If you're a smaller/weaker person, this is extremely risky.

Most non-lethal weapons are for you to get away from an uncommitted attacker as quickly as possible, not to stop a serious threat in its tracks. If someone has a weapon and intent on killing you, a firearm is your best bet in stopping them.

If you're really interested in this subject, consider reading The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind by Julian Jaynes. Part of Jaynes' thesis is that the thing we call consciousness is a lot smaller than we think it is, at least as distinguished from mere subjective experience that doesn't quite rise to the level of awareness or consciousness.

It's fascinating to think about, because it raises questions like whether a tree or even a rock experiences subjectivity. If subjective experience doesn't require consciousness, then maybe more things have that experience than we might expect.
