Price inflation is a rise in product prices. Period. This definition is not contested, not even by politicians who currently have very strong incentives to pretend that the headline rate of price inflation is "useless and misleading" and we should use a novel measure which factors in relatively low wage growth instead.

The paper is not at all quiet about the spillover effects on other firms. On the contrary, it is quite clear that there is no "problem" because the firms spending more money on labour make more profit from selling more goods [at approximately the same prices as before]. This is what economists call "growth".

If ever there was a case to change a definition of a term academics, politicians and headline writers all agree on, I suspect it won't come from somebody whose principal objective is to argue that "everybody has more stuff" is actually an adverse side effect.

I don't have much to say about many of the points, and I don't believe the conclusion about regulation follows, but

> Any “AGI” research that compares machine “performance” to humans contains a notable fallacy, the “task fallacy”

This is bang on. Everyone doesn't do this, but I have seen a subtle migration from AGI being roughly defined as a human mind in a computer, towards "AI that is as good as or better than a human at something". The latter is of course nothing like intelligence (a few logic gates are way better than any of us at adding). While it certainly could have societal applications (in the same way an automated loom is better than me at weaving, or a wheel is better than me at moving forward under load efficiently), it doesn't displace human intelligence.
Money laundering is comprised of three parts: placement, layering, and integration. The government here is attacking the “layering” part of the process that tornado _may_ contribute to (the norks still have to explain how they ended up with a billion of ETH). But to truly be “money laundering” you have to have all three elements. The equivalent here would be banning casino chips or something.

So, what you're actually saying is that they were actually not against the Russian war of aggression? Your suggestion that they were simultaneously against the war and also trying to justify it doesn't really add up.

Can we trust the Rorschach test? (2017)
You're not doing anything wrong. I have a 65" LG C9. And nearly everyone at my company has an LG TV. I've never seen or heard anyone mention ads. My parents have used the same TV for several years.

When used with inputs such as cable box, Apple TV, or native apps like Netflix, Amazon, etc., everything works as expected.

I'm genuinely confused as to what people are referring to. The last ads I saw were in the Peacock app to watch Parks and Recreation (and they were surprisingly non-obtrusive mainly Apple and EV ads). But I didn't have a subscription--the ads weren't coming from the TV.

I purchased a high-end Samsung TV in 2011. That was my last Samsung purchase ever. I also had a Sony X900F, and suffice it to say, I'll never purchase another Android-based TV (the UI was slow unresponsive garbage, unintuitive, and user-hostile). The actual TV itself was of decent quality but hamstrung by its operating system.

In general, unless something has changed, stick with LG.
Yep, Islam banned it over 1400 years ago.

I don’t think this is just Netflix movies, it is almost every movie shot today. The problem is everything digital cameras and modern lenses are too “perfect.” On top of that there is a trend towards extremely bright color grading. And then when you run that and put it on a brand new HDR tv it all looks a bit insane.

Clean perfect lenses with clean digital images displayed on blindingly bright HDR TVs.

Different films and older lenses create different looks. Film studios will still rent old lenses to get certain looks and a lot of serious filmmakers are adamant about using film only. Hell, even the director of Anchorman 2 talks about how he doesn’t like the look of the movie compared to the first because he was convinced to shoot digitally. And you know what, I thought the same thing watching that movie.

Some cinematographers seem to have figured out how to make digital look like a lot like film, but that has to be a very conscious choice.
Also, knowing which ads you've seen is more valuable than the shows you've watched. Think how much advertisers are paying TV manufacturers to know the conversion rate of their latest TV ads.
On Windows, there are things that even the Administrator user can't do, at least not directly.

One example I know off the top of my head because I know from experience is accessing Bluetooth encryption keys in the registry. Even if you launched Regedit as Administrator, you'll get ACCESS DENIED reading them. But if you use `psexec` to start Regedit as the SYSTEM user, you'll have access.

My guess is that CrowdStrike installs itself with permissions that prevent Administrator from uninstalling it.
MySQL also does this. Personally I find it quite useful - I can avoid indexing costs or table scanning on things where either A: I know from an application level that any value is the same as all others for my query, or B: when any value is equally acceptable (e.g. to show an example result).
Sure, but this model is a general image synthesizer that is trained on a massive amount of data that is openly available on the internet. Given that, I would assume that it would have seen many images of 74xx series chips and also musical notation. So I would think that the most "likely" image to generate would involve either a chip with 8 pins on either side (for the 74ls173) or a note on a single leger line just below a staff with a treble clef. I imagine there must be hundreds of 74xx chip images that would establish that fact and also thousands of images of musical notation that would establish the other.

I guess the takeaway really is that the model does not function in such a way that it can recall its training data. Which is fine. I don't think I should expect it to. On the other hand, GPT-3 can be made to produce specific facts that are established by its training data. Although, admittedly it often gets things wrong. Maybe the problem of image modeling is just naturally harder than language modeling. After all, language already "directly" represents meaning in some sense much more than arbitrary images do.

I'm sure someone could design a targeted model that would solve the issues I'm talking about. But I feel as though they shouldn't have to if we really had something that sees the world the way humans do. In any case, this work definitely seems cutting edge and represents a huge leap in that direction.
If you think the 20th century was the century of decolonization, you haven't dug very deep.

The Congo is a good example. One year after achieving independence in 1960, its sovereign leader was assassinated and replaced with neocolonial puppets. In the last 60 years, that "independent" country has been brutally exploited by foreign profiteers. A microcosm of the global south during the 20th century.
MacOS has a lot of BSDisms under the hood. For example it still comes with OpenBSD's pf firewall. You can access it with the pfctl command and it's documented in the man pages.

Note that this is not the application firewall that can be activated in system preferences. It's entirely separate and only accessible from the console or third party software like icefloor.
I love your username. The militants turn, startled.
It depends on how big your app is. The problem with Electron is that it bundles its own installation of Chromium, so if you have 5 Electron apps, you have 5 instances of Chromium taking up memory. With something like Tauri, the system web view is used, which is likely already loaded into memory, so the marginal memory usage of each additional application is very small.

A big enough application will dwarf Chromium's memory usage with its own, but for smaller apps, the cost of running your own Chromium instance will dominate your app's memory overhead.
> none of these border decisions were (initially at least) designed to accurately represent cultural and ethnic identities the way America was colonized for example

I'm not sure what you're referring to here. American borders were laid out without any consideration for indigenous peoples (the general policy of colonial and post-colonial states towards such peoples being "exterminate them"), and colonial and post-colonial states fought lots of wars over transferring land between them for reasons that boil down to simply "I want more land."
OK so the changes are totally doable and would nullify Putin's weaponization of natgas. We are at war , yet Germans seem to be totally inflexible to postponing "some goals of emission reduction" for a few years. That's unreasonable

> move from coal to renewables. The path there was via gas.

It's disingenuous to call that "a path" because natgas will never go away since renewables are wildly intermittent and natgas will always be needed to sustain the load. And it is imported from some of the worst dictatorships in the region.

> many young people were pressured into going to college

When I was young, drunk, and impressionable, a pit boss pressured me to apply for casino credit and get hosted in Vegas.

Of course, I took out my entire line in markers and lost it all.

If being young is a valid excuse to discharge the consequences of stupid choices, this is great news. I'll be awaiting my check.

Any of you who signed up for those $1000 unsecured "student credit card" offers should be lining up for the gravy train, as well.

Looking forward to teaching my kids that financial responsibility is only for old people, to rack up as much unserviceable debt as humanly possible while they're in whatever government standard age bracket is defined as "young", get it all forgiven, and then start acting like a responsible human being. There's no moral hazard in this line of reasoning whatsoever.
That sounds like an opportunity for a sweetheart deal. Hey you can sell your locked assets, but only at firesale prices to this licensed entity.
The 15-30W "low power" -U variants show this even more than higher-power cores Ars shows. i3 is 2+6 cores, i5 and i7 are 2+8 cores[1]. 4/5ths E-/atom cores!!

I for one am excited to see Atom cores make a comeback.

I hope we see ram on package show up too, for much smaller footprint systems. Intel's LakeField SoC (2020; ex: i5-L16G7) was 1+4 and won quite a number of contests it faced against the best Qualcomm tablet 8cx chips[2], largely because of it's long but vast single performance core (and did not bad at all in general, considering it was down -4 cores net).

And what a tiny/simple way to build a stupid-fast ultra-low-power computers. Having everything on package is amazing. Just add power, you've got a computer. Fantastic.

Intel talked a lot today about Meteor Lake, starting to come online ("2022Q2") & ship next year, which is replete with chiplets for CPU, SoC, GPU, I/O fanout[3], but lo, ram does not appear to be mentioned. For most systems, discrete ram is the most flexible option, but wow, for ultra-portable & easy to build & lower power, on-package ram is so so so excellent. I hope it comes back!!!!

Here is a synopsis, there is probably more.

EDB Postgres Advanced Server is an enhanced version of PostgreSQL that offers compatibility with Oracle in the following areas:

Oracle-specific and syntax-compatible database object types

Oracle-specific data types

Oracle-specific SQL extensions

Oracle PL/SQL support as a built-in native procedural language

Oracle data dictionary views (i.e., ALL_, DBA_, USER_ views)

Oracle built in PL/SQL packages

EDB Postgres Advanced Server doesn't fully implement all Oracle-specific features in these areas. Nevertheless, the compatibility is extensive and covers many of the most commonly used Oracle constructs.

(If you don't care for Oracle, don't use their database. However, SQL/PSM is the ISO PSM-96 standard; using this dialect will be maximally portable.)
> I take issue with the claim that tornado can “effectively launder money for criminals.” All it can do is leave you with an asset with a less-than-clear on chain history. If you want to cash out, you still have to explain how you wound up with 100 ETH or whatever.

ehhhhhhhh. you can play with asset prices and valuations to fix this.

you have a little clean money savings from your job right?

okay, great, with a little bit of dirty/flaggable money in a different address, launch an erc20 token and liquidity pool, add 100% of the erc20 to the liquidity pool.

now with your clean money, be an early buyer.

now with MORE of your dirty/flaggable money (other tornado cash notes withdrawn to different virgin addresses via the relayer), buy into the liquidity pool. this pumps the price of the token.

now with your clean money, sell. cash out, pay capital gains tax, move on. indistinguishable from any other crypto trader. bots and many others would have bought into the liquidity pool too as they have alerts.

everyone else can play amongst themselves in perpetuity, and it can't go below the initial price that you set when you launched the pool (in Uniswap V2 style liquidity pools, and just if you want to feel better about it). hey, maybe if it keeps running then your tornado cash funded addresses might be able to sell back into the liquidity pool again.
The multi-paradigm approach sounds fantastic, I've wanted something like that for so long.

As for direct client connections - Firestore uses that approach as well. One issue with them is that your only means of security is the Firestore Rules document, which is a single script that doesn't offer much flexibility. What I've learned from using them is that if you're going to offer a direct client-to-db interface, the rules expression needs to be pretty sophisticated. Not giving advice, that's just my perspective as a potential customer. I'll take a look through your docs and will probably try it out.

Oh dear. I've written extensively on how American workers should advocate for a return to office. It's in the best interest of the workers long-term.

Back to Apple. Clearly Apple execs have data that productivity/creativity/whatever they measure on has decreased. Thus, they want people back in the office.

But let's have a random arm-chair HN poster tell Tim Cook how to run Apple.

>Except that Biden has kept most of Trump's trade policies toward China in place, and even tightened others (chip making). Thankfully, a healthy distrust of the Chinese has become a rare point of bipartisan agreement in the U.S.

I think you're trying to say that America is actively trying to sabotage China's tech industry, right?

Maybe in hardware, though China has just launched their homegrown 7nm tech.

But in software, China is pretty close. I think they'll surpass the US in software within the next 5 years. By surpassing, I mean new products from China will outcompete new products from US.

>Economics aside, I can't believe someone on HN is seriously making the argument that our labor policies should be more like China's. Good grief.

Why not? Keep an open mind. Not everything in the USA is the greatest. Maybe we can learn a bit from Chinese businesses and how they operate. They're clearly winning in many industries and they're gaining on Silicon Valley in software fast.

But you're simply exaggerating. All I've been trying to say is that remote work will lose to office work in the long run for both businesses and workers.

But until recently those low margin consumer goods didn't have the ability to generate revenue after purchase. So it's same but totally different.

My thought was, "I bet $100 billion is actually a pretty decent chunk of the US welfare state". Turns out, that's about as much as is spent at all levels of government on housing (primarily direct subsidies, legacy housing project upkeep and funding for newer tax-credit housing construction).

Then I wondered, "what kind of tax could cover that cost?" and I found a list of net worths and saw that about 5% of the wealth of the top 20 US billionaires covered that entire spending for a year. There's much more compelling comparisons to be made but I didn't have all day.
At least you had a high limit for a while. I emailed support many times trying to get my low Stripe Corp Credit Card limit increased to no avail.

Sorry Stripe, I wanted to use you but you made it impossible.

Okay, but that wasn't really my question. You recommend Oracle XE; I never used Oracle DB so I'm wondering what technical reasons there are to choose Oracle over PostgreSQL?

The general attitude towards Oracle tends to be quite negative on HN. Maybe for good reason, but I'd like to hear a different perspective and this seemed like a good opportunity.

As the article mentions, the biggest problem by far with using mypy and the Python static typing ecosystem generally is the lack of third party support, even for big or new projects.

Python's benefits are as much about the libraries available as they are the language itself, and unfortunately it's kind of lacking right now especially compared to e.g. TypeScript support in npm.

Waiting for it to get better only goes so far; there isn't yet a cultural expectation around publishing typesheds for everything.
