The same thing that's wrong with telling people to wipe their asses when they use the toilet. I'd be offended that you don't think I've got that handled for myself.
And let people suffer for decades with much slower advancement in drug making and therapy development?

Perhaps you can sell it to patients and their families first before agitating it in the public sphere.
If you spend any time in Singapore you'll note that the fact that private ownership of cars is so difficult and rare it means people use other luxury goods to denote status.

To generalize hugely, women buy designer handbags and men have watches. It took me a while to work out, but it makes perfect sense once you think it through. It's so hard to get yourself a BMW 3 Series so you spend $20K on a watch instead.
Locating and Editing Factual Associations in GPT
I like the simplicity of your tool as well as the fact that no login is required to use it (although I would appreciate a backup option like saving the localStorage data as a single text file and being able to load it back).

A few suggestions about the UI:

Cards have no visual cue that they are stacked (I think this came up in some other replies here), so it is impossible to tell how much information can be found underneath. With books, for example, you can tell by their thickness roughly how many pages you can expect. But a general problem with digital content is that its dimensions can be infinite, especially if it is revealed/concealed interactively in a fractal-like manner as it is in your tool.

Personally, I would feel overwhelmed quickly after taking multiple nested notes, especially if I wanted to look up a piece of information that is hidden deep inside or if I wanted to reorganize my notes (although I think this is not possible yet in your app?).

I like that you made a breadcrumb-like navigation back to the parents - this helps a lot with orientation. But maybe also consider a more global navigation and a search tool to move more quickly between top-level notes and find notes that are deeply nested.

I would also adjust the font-size dependent on the amount of text in a card. If you enter a lot of text, cards quickly become too cumbersome to read.

I also think the parent card/header(?) should be differentiated much more against its child cards. I became a bit confused about which cards are clickable and which are not.

Nonetheless, I always appreciate people who build tools that they find useful for themself and share them with others, especially if they help with thinking.
This gives me a strong feeling of general unease and flashbacks to the days of WD hard drives.
I can believe that some rich individuals are uniquely gifted in some way that makes them deserving of being richer than most of other people. I also think that the magnitude of this phenomenon is not proportional to how much richer they are, in practice. I share the sentiment that most of the wealth of billionaires is attributable to their workers, luck, and favorable environmental circumstances. Some marginal amount is due to the industriousness and ingenuity of the person in question.

40k hours is a little more than 4.5 years. These drives deterministically fail at that uptime (unless firmware is updated) and most servers are on 24x7, so if you run your servers for 5 years, it's highly likely you'd run into this. If you run your SSDs hard and they fail early as a result, then you'd be spared from this mass death. Or if you use three year leases and replace on a schedule.

Now more than ever, five year old server hardware isn't that far behind the curve unless you're on the bleeding edge. I've been looking for bottom of the barrel hosting lately, and there's lots of dedicated servers available with 10+ year old cpus, and probably most of the rest of the machine is a similar age.
> Since almost all of the early, 'good' Universities including the entire Ivy League (and of course the much older European schools) literally started as 'Seminaries' to train the Priesthood, and expanded from there, and the very notion of 'University' education in the US and around the world is based on this framework of higher learning, with integrated spiritual aspects, I think the material reality of the situation is a bit more nuanced.

I’m not sure why you think the fact that “good” private universities originated as (and still operate) seminaries has any bearing on what is legal for public institutions like Community Colleges under the US Constitution and the jurisprudence applying the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment and the Due Process Clause of the 14th Amendment.
I'm talking about what should be done today, not crying over the milk spilt in the 70s. I only mentioned the 70s to show how rapidly nuclear could be built to replace other energy sources.

If you look at any longer term projections on the German or EU energy mix in the next 10-30 years, natural gas will still be critical to the energy mix in 2050 if current plans continue. E.g. [1] shows a nice summary of that.

Thus arguments like "efficient building codes" are a red herring. You'll still need to heat your efficiently insulated buildings.

The current plans for doing that are fundamentally still those spearheaded by Germany and others before 2014. If the EU has a serious commitment to longer term sanctions on Russia those plans need to change.

I don't think they will. I think we'll still be buying Russian gas then, and that Germany et al will find some way to sell out Ukraine in the next couple of years. But one can always hope for better.

You think you’d wear the same watch every day if you got to the point of buying this? It’s more likely that you would have someone working for you who could keep all your watches wound and set.

> The parent comment was a claim that their 3 year old did not get COVID in a preschool/daycare setting because of widespread mask wearing.

Both yours and theirs can be true. Perhaps preschoolers in Asia have better parental modeling of proper mask wearing, having been a fairly widespread practice in some areas since the first SARS. Perhaps there's a difference in how careful the teachers were to make adjustments when someone's slipped.
Why do you think he was the first? I don't understand what kind of rock a person lives under to pretend like this was some undiscovered format The Daily Show pioneered.

Note that even his "top engine match" is 85%. This is not a fantastically high number, given that maybe 40% of moves are obvious/must-moves. I bet I match the engine ~60%.

I also think this is his classical games, not rapid, blitz, or bullet.

Top human players tend to make safer, lower variance moves than things engines prove super safe on evaluation. They may give up a few centipawns for ease of analysis.
>> on a space which itself has the property where distances between the passenger and destination are decreasing faster than the speed of light

Doesn't it take considerable effort/energy to make that happen? And is spacetime elastic, so it would spring back?

What is the technical requirement behind this?
Alternative to the recursive function question, was also one testing mathematic induction (1999). I didn't know enough CS or Scheme to get into CS61A, but they were fine with getting the underlying concept in a language that was safer to assume people were familiar. (I wasn't lucky enough to have any CS or programming courses in high school unlike most of my classmates.)
It’s not memory I’m relying on, but evidence. All the evidence, not to mention common sense, points to conscious experience requiring a brain.
Really? Interesting. Crimea has the largest natural gas deposit in the world, capable of dethroning Russia but you said it wasn't about that? There's a good explanation for why Russia attacked Ukraina and it definitely has to do with Crimea and what Russians perceive as "existential threat" from the West. Sadly, any Russian president would have done what Putin did.

It's not black and white anymore. I'm just a bystander but instead of looking for alternatives to deascalate, people here want Ukraine to "win" the war by any means necessary while they are probably comfortable and well fed at home.
This is what always worries me about our home server. It's running ZFS with multiple redundant drives but the supplier refused (when I explicitly asked) to supply it with disks known to be from different batches claiming that the odds of multiple failures close together were negligible. Obviously we have backups as well but the time and cost to restore a full server from online backups can be significant.
I felt similarly to computer tape drives. People in general miss turntables and k7 players. Maybe it's a level of complexity that you can still relate too and thus feel more about. Your life does not revolve about perfect information at infinitely low cost. You want to be stimulated / inspired. A modern SoC with all its technical prowess is out of reach to your senses.
MSHA agrees with you about safety. And MSHA reacted sanely to the corona-panic by basically doing nothing more than reminding operators to allow miners to stay home when sick.

If you are using apps that have been packaged with PyInstaller (or a number of other methods) for end-user use, I don't understand this: I use a number, and it's completely painless.

If you are using a systemwide Python installation and installing apps into it with pip, then, yes, that's potentially a world of needless pain.
They should research paying people at market next vs. not (current state) to see what the difference is :)
> that private ownership of cars is so difficult and rare

How it should be everywhere.
My 4 year old Tesla has had several unscheduled service visits. None of them were for anything EV related. All of them were for Tesla-specific or "new car builder" things. Eg, main infotainment replacement (from ancient arm to modern intel for better performance), ball joint replacement at 40K miles, forgotten tow package when my car was delivered, improperly installed windows, etc, etc, etc.
I would say Org Mode does this too, but emacs is quite the interface..
I personally didn't use it because whenever I looked on it the prices seemed a little on the high side.

I think it's a case of one app doing one thing though. When I go traveling maybe I look on trip advisor for good things to do, I don't want canned experiences. I would have been more likely to use it when I was living in NYC but it was too expensive anyway
Not only that but you can then multiply that with all the people you can send it to. Or all the ways you can represent it.
I’ve never heard of one. I refuse to believe a self respecting CS program would let people through without taking some kind of computer organization/low level programming type class where you _at least_ program in some C.

A long time ago it was about labour costs but that isn't been true for over 2 decades. manufacturing anywhere outside of China can't compete with China anymore because of critical mass of supply chain. You should visit Shenzen and you will quickly understand why there is no place in the world like it and why there probably never will be.

Hearing that people think you can 'just' replicate Shenzen somewhere else makes me giggle.

Unfortunately for the US it also goes for batteries and other green energy tech that the US turned their back on in favour of oil these past decades. You can't just replicate Xinjiang polysilicon production, without which we can't have PV solar cells, also primarily made in China. CATL is probably the largest manufacturer of EV class batteries in the world. China makes more EVs than the rest of the world many times over, etc.

Now they are also leading in nuclear, rolling out 200GW of next-gen reactors, they have their own fusion experiments.

They have been leading in AI research for the last 10+ years.

The days of China being cheaper are long long gone. You go to China because you can get access to talent, work ethic and optimised supply chain + logistics that can't be bought anywhere else on earth for any price.

That dominance isn't going to be easily displaced because it's the product of decades of investment and R&D.
This is the dumbest idea ever.

Single cell sequencing technology is analogous to taking many radios, and listing all the parts the radios contains. Then clustering radios by similarity in their part abundances.

Useful, but a parts list is still far from figuring out how a radio works.

I'm surprised nobody has raised concerns about the authors. This group is notorious for producing near-fraudulent preprints in support of their preconceptions and widely publicizing them. Tracy Hoeg was responsible for an atrocious VAERS-based study making false claims about vaccine safety, and Neeraj Sood was intimately involved in the Hoover Institution's successful efforts in March/April 2020 to persuade certain media figures that Covid was less deadly than the flu. You can read more about that VAERS preprint here: https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/peer-review-of-a-vaers-dump... and some related recent work around child vaccines here: https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/an-impossible-trial/. I believe the third author is a professional covid skeptic associated with the organization "rational ground". This is not a reliable set of sources. I will have time to dig in later, but if this is anything like the rest of their work it's worthless garbage.
As far as I know, such evidence has never been released by Uber. I’m sure that Uber knows, or could, but I don’t think they’ve shared that info. They have an API called Movement which publishes anonymized data about trips, but I think cost isn’t available.

There was a study by MIT in 2018 that concluded it was a bad deal for drivers. https://techcrunch.com/2018/03/02/mit-study-shows-how-much-d...

I don’t know if the 2018 data is still relevant, as there are complex incentives that vary in each market.

But, Uber (and similar companies) could probably end the questions tomorrow by releasing data or allowing researchers to have access to their drivers. The fact that they don’t, and that they instead spend $200M lobbying the governments to make an exception for worker protections for rideshare drivers (and tried to make that irrevocable without a 7/8ths majority!!) seems telling to me.

firefox on macos shows the unicode in the address bar properly.

I do kind of like that HN retains the xn-whatever as it's actually formatted in an authoritative DNS zonefile, because this is hacker news. As I do not read the language in question the unicode original and the xn-whatever are equally incomprehensible to me.
Interesting. Let's wait 'till winter hits to see if these policies would hold weight against Russia's natural gas.
A contradistinction for Australia is discussed in https://reneweconomy.com.au/slow-expensive-and-no-good-for-1...

Basically: "it's too late" -The time to build, coupled to the LCOE of a nuclear build in Australia won't help, against the same capex spent in storage, Solar and Wind across the interval to lighting up any nuclear, SMR included.

The US has a Nuclear industry. It has deployed reactors. It has mothballed reactors, and reactor suitable sites which can be used to deploy newer reactors, for lower TCO and lower time to compliance than a clean build in a currently non-nuclear power economy. Giles of course is profoundly anti-nuclear, but the world-nuclear-news site is hardly 'even handed' either in this matter.

I do actually suspect that the same story is true in the US: if you do the linear optimisation on capital spend to wind and solar and storage, I am less sure that (re)investment in SMR and 4th gen Reactors is as beneficial. I don't think it "wont work" and I do think it will supply useful power. But not cheap, and not any time soon, where wind, solar and storage can deploy incrementally, right now. So, its both about time to market, and height (GW/GWh) of the line, and cost. Thats why I think its a Linear Optimisation problem: Its Operations-Research. Not "which works" but "which is better"

I wish Australia had a viable nuclear power industry (it has research reactors at Lucas Heights, and it even broke ground in federal land for a power reactor in the late 60s but nothing came of it) -I think it would have been helpful in decarbonisation, had they been built and already operating 15-20 years ago. We are a part of the worldwide nuclear industry both in supply, and under terms of supply, return and storage.
Unfortunately, we have yet to represent code and data in perfect unison in the perfect format.
I think the term for this is kolmogorov complexity.
That's 8192 bits, with which you can represent numbers moderately higher than 2^13.

A byte is 8 bits long (2^3), so there are 256 distinct values you can store in a byte (2^(2^3) = 2^8 = 256).

A kilobyte is 8192 bits long (2^13), so there are 2^8192 distinct values you can store in a kilobyte.
I'm pretty sure I've seen it on government job postings. In fact, many of the federal CS jobs require ABET-accredited degree programs, which is annoying because many of the better programs aren't (Stanford and CMU, for example).

Accreditation may matter for immigration (some places give extra points to people with degrees), possibly student loans, and things like that.

Thanks for this reply. I wonder though if it was so unusual for there to be large communities of people living together this long ago and sharing a common culture.

I would think that there would be strength in numbers and that people would gravitate to those places where their daily needs were likely to be satisfied. If there were resource issues, such as food in particular, then we would expect to see more nomadic settlements like we see in north America from pre-Clovis sites. Those sites tended to be occupied seasonally with no permanent structures erected. The people who visited used natural shelters such as the caves or overhangs along creeks and rivers and evidence indicates they were used for thousands of years.

For these people to construct a city they would need not only to have reliable food sources to feed everyone living there but they would need fresh water and shelter.

It appears that they constructed dwellings for many people and this implies the availability of food and water. Food would obviously involve taking advantage of local wild and domesticated animals. To insure daily supplies were adequate these animals would need to be kept close enough to the settlements that it was convenient to get fresh food daily. That is why I think some of these are likely pens. They don't all have to be though. As the settlement size increases the supply of food on hand must also increase. It is likely that since they obviously had fresh water available back then they likely engaged in some form of agriculture, harvesting seeds or fruits of berries, etc locally.

Since some of these sites are large it is reasonable to assume that they share a culture and that each site knew of and traded with their neighbors sharing the burdens of managing food supplies and defense from predators and from common enemies.

Cult to me, being here in Texas, has negative connotations for obvious reasons. We have been host to more than one over the last few decades and a new one has moved in that could turn out to be worse than all the previous cults combined.

I would prefer that these ancient people who shared a culture and beliefs and who enjoyed living in close proximity to each other had a name that humanize them instead of one that could demonize them. The Al Ula people sounds better to me or the Khaybar society.
