It is worse than “stupid”; we are rewarding mediocre (but good-looking) people..

Similar phenomenon in any scaled-up industry. Take the example of academia. Plenty of people without substance “making it” by purely aping the style of French philosophers, Wittgenstein, Feynman, and so on…

There was a chance, if they kept their soul and at what they were doing to make it big as authentic artists and scientists, but they would have to starve for a long time.

As for me, that’s why I am commenting on Hacker News instead of struggling on in grad school :)
Conservatives still aren't a proponent of EV, especially government mandates for them or to pay for them.

That has nothing to do with Conservatives liking or disliking someone. I guess Conservatives are just better at respecting people they don't agree with on everything.

My dad is an 82 year old Musk fanboy. Why? Because Musk made fun of Elizabeth Warren. My dad likes him because Musk trolls people that my dad doesn't like. Period. Musk took Rush Limbaugh's place, along with Hannity and Carlson.

I also do this, and it's surprisingly effective (or at least somewhat effective that everyone should at least try, even a %10 reduce in time wasted is huge.)

The way I do it is I have CODE open, with a today.md and every time a thought comes up when I'm either working or learning I just go to that document and I write it down (as a sort of IOU to pay later) while the desire to check that is strong at that very moment, when I come back to that document after ~2hours, it's something so trivial, that I end up mostly not even look at it.
It’s interesting where did you get them? Have a link?
In general: the digital arts industry is heavily, heavily dominated by the tools artists can get access to when they're learning digital art. Artists want to create, and (as a general rule / stereotype) they have a bit less patience with the same-purpose-but-different-interface redundancy that the software industry is extremely comfortable with.

A company that doesn't make their digital art tools available to artists learning to be artists risks stalling the recruitment pipeline because all other things being equal, artists will prefer to work at a house already using tooling they know rather than be forced to learn some other thing that does something they can already do with another toolchain.

Musk's companies have done some truly amazing things. He absolutely created enough buzz with Tesla to put EVs on the map, after they were fading. Battery tech. StarLink. SpaceX. They are all long overdue.

Also: He's a complete hobgoblin of a human being.

Both things can be true.

That would cost a lot of money and have no content. The problem isn't friction. The friction would be easy to overcome if you didn't have those two fatal problems.

> Alex Jones, like or not, owns a media company and media companies often do lie about people. An example that comes to mind is that Kyle Rittenhouse had some very subjective and nasty things said about him by the media and by people with large followings online (perhaps deservingly, idk). Many media orgs implied, or outright said that he was a white supremacist.

I just searched for anyone here mentioning about the establishment, mainstream media, politician(s) (including a democrat presidential candidate at the time) posting libellous remarks about Kyle Rittenhouse without evidence, even before the trial and was afterwards acquitted and of all comments, only yours came up highlighting this.

Interesting isn't it how everyone mysteriously and instantly forgotten about that since now Alex Jones is the villain of the week?

> So I what I don't understand how it's okay for a large authoritative media company like MSNBC to imply Kyle Rittenhouse is a white supremacist without evidence, but Alex Jones with his relatively small following can't suggest Sandy Hook was a hoax?

> Am I miss-understanding something here, or were these media orgs also potentially breaking libel law?

You are not mis-understanding anything. The hypocrisy of the mainstream media around defamation of Rittenhouse shows that once they believe they can get away with it, they will do it again and again to anyone else. They are looking for villains to make stories out of others and will spread those lies or defamation for profit. In general, No-one should be able to get away with that without paying fines or damages for defamation.

For smaller media companies like Jones's Infowars was sued for this and his response to Sandy Hook was indefensible to begin with so he should just pay the fine and it should also apply even to mainstream media who should not get away with their unfounded libellous nonsense towards Rittenhouse. I'd expect him to be filing defamation cases against them.
Had me right up until the last paragraph. One does not have to be a colonialist or carry bias to have misconceptions about the midevil period. Ignorance is a fine reason. I myself am a huge fan of history but mostly ignorant about that time period. It's just never been my jam. I'll admit I'd probably think the "bring out your dead" and "oh Dennis, there's some lovely filth down here" sketches in Monty Python's Holy Grail was somewhat accurate before reading the article.
This is the fairest critique of Kube I’ve seen posted - you summed up my thoughts perfectly.

Maybe evidence that a little opinionation can go a long way to help the user experience.

Obviously. A wedding vow is a promise to stay with someone. A prenup is a contract that you will stay with someone but have a clear exit clause. Musk signed a contract with an exit clause. The contract is a complicated document. If it was a promise it could be written on a hallmark card.

From my understanding, there's literally no way to get out of the $1B penalty even if he proves everything that he claims about Twitter bots. What he's trying to get out of right now, is buying Twitter at the price he originally said.
I suppose I thought the network would have the final say, and they should be held accountable for the content they permit on their channels. Then again, I'm not sure how much of this occurred online in a setting that can't really be moderated. I watched an episode of the Joe Rogan Experience with him on YouTube many years ago (it was awful), and I don't think that could effectively be moderated by anyone. That's a hard problem.

I wasn't trying to say Jones shouldn't be accountable. Even if he isn't a sociopath, what he did was inexcusable. I simply meant to say he didn't work independently, and I'm surprised/concerned he wasn't shut down much sooner.
To be fair, that's a realistic mistake that twitter users might make too. Musk has one of the most faked accounts on the site, with lots of bots running Musk impersonation crypto scams. IMO this says more about the problems with twitter than about an inaccuracy in Musk's script.
“especially if the business isn’t doing well financially” seems like a thought terminating cliché tbh
It was an interesting comment and I agree with you that the rational market hypothesis has some issues. It is a real tragedy that rational as a word is as overloaded as it is. Even when I try to disambiguate I don’t feel you are noticing the subtleness of my disagreements. I take as a given, because of a recognition of the intractable aspects of having perfect information for example, that the hypothesis isn’t correct.

It feels a bit much to criticize my use of the term though; after all… I, uh, didn’t use it? In fact I tried to direct you away from interpreting my point using that frame?

Go back and you’ll notice I never even claimed that I believed it and instead talked about the belief of others.

Even when I presented an argument that I do agree with it depended on a cooperative framing for a loss that doesn’t even make sense if the agent was perfect.

On my side of things I also am lacking understanding of your points. I’m really not understanding is how you get to the actions being justifiably criminal. I agree with you that the hope is overconfident, but not that overconfidence is bad and certainly not that overconfidence is comparable to theft. My confusion on that step is why I’m taking about the nature of cooperation and trying to get at the fallout of the selfish and cooperative equilibriums.

Jesus is Truth is a compatible frame for my claim that equilibrium cooperation is Truth. It is also compatible with the frame that gets Truth through unification as in logic, since the rules of it force the choice of the doors. It is also very in line with what how people use the term when they don’t have a definition: that the first to die in war is truth is obvious when truth is cooperative alignment of beliefs. I’m very satisfied with how I use the term. How satisfied would sound very melodramatic, so I’ll spare you except to warn that I would gladly die for this. Other definitions of truth don’t seem to bootstrap very well - they get caught in the weeds of words having no meaning prior to alignment. What I’m talking about is alignment.
Indians definitely still have certain specific hygiene practices that Westerners don't. Anybody who has worked at a large tech company will have taken note of the tooth brushes in the bathrooms. I found this to be very confusing at first, but then I noticed that a good amount of my Indian coworkers would brush their teeth after lunch.
Every time I've had the misfortune to speak with actual Nazis, the first, and commonly the loudest talking point they make in support of their beliefs is that, if what they are saying is fake and is so easily debunkable, why do people feel the need to censor them?

The argument is obviously wrong, for a number of reasons, but I wouldn't mind denying them that talking point.

I think I'd go mad if I had to listen to the sort of music played at Japanese train stations on a regular basis. Which is odd because a lot of Japanese TV dramas have excellent background music, so there's no shortage of talent or capacity to produce it. OTOH what's with the sound effects on Japanese comedy shows (there's only about 2 or 3 such effects, clearly designed to induce auditory nerve damage, and they're used unsparingly in almost every such show).
I'd also be interested in a feature comparison against Swish (https://github.com/becls/swish), but I'm not actually familiar enough with either to make the comparison myself.
> For instance, it's not hard at all to make bass so loud that it causes the needle to leap out of the track

I was a drum and bass dj when it was all still vinyl. Even in a club with huge speakers, I've never seen the needle jump due to the bass (although some places used to tape a penny to the top of the headshelf). The weighting on the tone arms can be adjusted so if you've got a needle dancing around it's due to your set up, not the bass, or Jungle music wouldn't have lasted too long.

In my experience, news programs are very precise over using “alleged” or “suspected” when describing defendants until they’ve been proven guilty. And they quickly issue corrections when known facts change.

Opinion programs, however, can be much more loose with their language. Tucker Carlson famously avoided repercussions from his speech with this defense.

This isn’t a new thing. People still call OJ Simpson a murderer despite being declared not guilty in his criminal trial. People call George W Bush a murderer despite never even being charged with a crime.

Colloquially, murderer can also be used to mean killer. Rittenhouse is a killer.

I don’t see his lawsuits going anywhere, but I’m open to there being actual good evidence and argument for it. Maybe you can provide some great clips or articles with the slander, but otherwise I think the comparison with what Jones did is laughable.
We currently have a massive chunk of society who are losing their collective minds about people engaging in the very early iterations of transhumanism—transgender folks.

I still regularly encounter people who are spitting angry against transgender folks and then later in the conversation will completely unironically talk about how much they love the cyberpunk genre.

Not many of them realize they would be the weird cultists in the background of the story holding signs preaching about unnatural technology.
Have you any source for that being the reason? https://support.google.com/youtube/thread/114633828/changes-... is all I find, and it says this:

> In 2017, we rolled out a security update to the system that generates new Unlisted video links. This update included security enhancements that make the links for your Unlisted videos even harder for someone to discover if you haven’t shared the link with them.

That doesn’t imply a leaked key to me (I’d consider that wording dishonest if it actually is describing a leaked key), but rather an increase in the sparsity of the ID space, presuming they were using encrypted sequential IDs.

I used to press burgers in patties and take a lot of care to not over massage the ground meat together. Learned about smashburgers, and it's just the most effective way to make a burger. You make small balls of ground beef, press it on a hot metal surface and let it cook (rapidly). You build it up to the given weight you want (2 2.5 oz patties produce about a quarter pound burger after the water cooks off and fat renders). Top each pattie with cheese, dress the buns, put the burger between dressed buns and you have a pretty good sandwich.
I don’t think they helped overall, I’d agree on net they acted to make things less secure by arguing for the small key sizes. We mostly agree. I just think strengthening public DES based on a security issue that was not public at the time is an interesting example of a time they did the opposite of inserting a backdoor, people were afraid their suggestions were weakening DES, but they were strengthening it. That paired with the history suggested some internal arguing about priorities.

> C++ is (almost) a superset of C, you can mostly drop C code onto your C++ compiler and it will work.

The devil is in the details. The "almost" and "mostly" parts are really important here, especially given that the entire topic is safety.

If you compile "C code" with your C++ compiler (as C++), you're no longer compiling C code; you're now compiling C++ code that looks like C.

It would be fine if C code, when compiled as C++ had one of two outcomes:

1. Behaved identically to C code compiled as C.
2. Refused to compile

Unfortunately, there are things that exist in both languages but have different semantics such as the type of character literals, e.g. 'a' (int in C, char in C++).

As for the superset thing, there's been quite significant divergence especially since C99 (e.g. variable length arrays)

Other subtly different things include:

the bool type (C++ has a bool type, C99 has _Bool with a macro for bool as bool isn't a reserved word in C).

designated initializers (C99 had them first then C++20 introduced them to C++ but with more restrictions)

> We've all seen women in third world countries carrying water for cooking and drinking on their heads, often long distances

This aspect of 3rd world countries is commented upon again and again. But, what I find most amusing is that in modern times, water comes to your home, but you go to the gym to slog it out for an hour. Just waster your energy that you over ate the day before.

Its true that women used to carry water over a few kilometers every day. But in most cases, water sources were available nearby (Most settlements happened in the vicinity of water sources, and there are many historical references that show whole villages up and leaving in search of water sources if their current source seems depleted)

Across the board, obesity is high, BP problems are high, Diabetes problems are high, people have lesser stamina and strength and a whole host of health problems, that were not even an issue a few decades ago are now mainstream.

In ancient times, we depended on nature and it necessitated regular work for living a life. Getting water from local well or pond, cooling for long hours, household chores like washing clothes, etc took a long time. People traveled a lot by foot, etc. Life was hard, but life was healthy too. To account for accidents, health issues in old age, etc, joint families were the norm, where the family and the society supported a disabled person or an incapacitated person to the extent possible.

Modern living in convenient, but not healthy. Is luxurious, but not cheap. Is plentiful, but not sustainable.

This is not true. We have reliable indicators of pre-modern poverty levels [1], and they were indeed brutal. India (in the mythical pre-invasion period) was no exception. [2]

>>Most of the population lived in thatched huts or wood beam supported houses constructed from soil based cement like stuff. I assume this was true all over the world.

This is what extreme poverty (pervasive in pre-modern times, aand still present today in the poorest regions of the world) looks like:
