You are talking about the diversity visa. It only applies to countries that don't send many people already.

H1B has a global cap, so there's a lottery. It's a completely different thing.

Green Cards also have a cap. China (and India in particular) are screwed. If you are from India and take your 1 year old baby to the US, it's likely – if nothing is done – that your baby will never get a green card. Child dependents lose eligibility at 21 years old; the current projections are pointing to much longer times than that.
Better than Instagram, at least.
I think there's a subtle mashing of three arguments/premises here.
Firstly, whether or not there is an environmental emergency, secondly, whether forcing people to respond to it is appropriate, and last, whether the use of force constitutes totalitarianism. I don't believe JP actually is interested in discussing the role of 'force' (which he equivocates to 'totalitarianism', but equivalent to any government interference in freedoms) in response to problems as I think if we accept the premise of a massive problem that humans are geared to perpetuate (say, insider trading or collusion between companies), we recognize that the only available option is to use 'force'.

As a thought exercise, if we accept the hypothetical premise that there is an environmental disaster of some kind that we as a race have sleepwalked into, and that the 1% has insufficient interest in averting, and that we have very little time to try to mitigate - if we accept those terms for a hypothetical premise for a moment - I would be interested in how JP would propose a society tackle such a situation.

Humans are not perfectly logical operators acting in their best interests and charting an optimal long term future through time and space - the tragedy of the commons is well documented proof of this. We're averse to change; most animals are, so if they do not see or feel a problem, or if they don't have an emotional investment in something, they won't care about it.

Equipped with this fact and our aforementioned hypothetical, the options available to a hypothetical environmental fascist are to allow things to burn such that the majority of humans clamor for change (undesirable), to try sell the majority of the Earth's people an emotional investment in the Earth and the hypothetical problem, or to force people to do the right thing via a curtailing of their rights.

So, lastly, I would ask, given such terms, is option three so unreasonable? Ported to a real issue: would JP counsel investors to start a global marketing campaign about the evils of insider trading and collusion rather than have governments worldwide outlaw and punish such practices? I don't think he would die on that hill. Therefore, I consider this headline to be cheap and intended to muddy the waters by stoking fears, where what we actually have here is plain-jane denial there there is an environmental disaster playing out.

There are many ways to do it. I personally recommend “Event Storming” as a great way to get started (web search it).
The headline is wrong too. Actions you take might be a vote for who you WILL become, but not who you WISH to become. In other words, one can fail to become who they wanted to.

Taxes in the UK are not actually that high. I live in a Northern European country and my take home pay on the same salary in the UK would be 12% more a month, and even more if you take into account all the tax free savings options (there's none where I live). And my country doesn't even have that high taxes, take a look at how much you'd be paying in somewhere like Italy.

Plus the UK is a mini tax haven, being one of the best places in Europe for the self-employed.

> But it isn't? For e.g. outside sheds (heated to 7°C) the COP can theoretically go up to 27. For solar panels, the highest theoretical efficiency is well below 100% and the bound isn't communicated.

That's just another way of saying that framing it as efficiency and disregarding that you're moving heat from a colder reservoir is incredibly misleading. Now the marketing department can put a giant "1300% efficient*" sticker on the dual use heat pump even though it's worse for heating to 24C. A heat pump is fundamentally moving heat. It's in the name. (Heat created + heat moved) / work in does not map to an intuitive or technical notion of efficiency, and framing it that way is encouraging a mental model which is not just quantitatively off, but fundamentally wrong. It's also a distinction that is subtle enough that it is very hard to see while you are confused. This is the almost worst kind communication failure (maybe just after using a dimensionless number for insulation, or using kilo for kibi) because it's so hard to correct. It leaks into other domains and destroys communication, allowing marketers to lie, and requiring a constant treadmill of new terms to fix.

> For solar panels, the highest theoretical efficiency is well below 100% and the bound isn't communicated.

The absolute bound is carnot efficiency, which is about 80% for coupling to the sun. This is close enough that out/in is fine. Additionally out/in is the correct model because you are converting energy not movng it. 'Simple silicon cells can't exceed about 35% efficiency because they need to pick whether to waste energy in blue light or ignore energy in infrared' is the only other piece of information needed to convert that to a quantitatively and physically complete model. You can even communicate it succinctly by drawing a rectangle on a black body diagram.

> saying in school maths that you can't take the square root of -1.

This is also anti-education and a far worse sin because it is crushing one of the few moments where mathematics might actually be learned in a maths class instead of rote algorithm memorization. A teacher should never ever say this. Far better to say something along the lines of "that's a question that doesn't have an answer when we're talking about numbers on the number line, come talk to me about it later". Or "it's really cool that you're thinking about that, here's the khan academy and wiki pages, write a letter telling me all about it instead of your normal homework". Or even "think about it and tell me what you think the answer should be".
People have reality-dampers.

It’s a popular fact that nine-tenth of the brain is not used and, like most popular facts, it is wrong. Not even the most stupid Creator would go to the trouble of making the human head carry around several pounds of unnecessary grey goo if its only purpose was, for example, to serve as a delicacy for certain remote tribesmen in unexplored valleys.

It is used. And one of its functions is to make the miraculous seem ordinary and turn the unusual into the usual.

Because if this was not the case, then human beings, faced with the daily wondrousness of everything, would go around wearing big stupid grins, similar to those worn by certain remote tribesmen who occasionally get raided by the authorities and have the contents of their plastic greenhouses very seriously inspected. They’d say “Wow!” a lot. And no one would do much work.

Anything can be addiction. Hell I got addicted to weed. At first for years it was fine but then I got into some rough patches when the pandemic started and I was blazed all day every day. It was a temporary escape where I could still do my job but beyond that I had zero motivation for months besides getting more weed.

Took months to kick the habit, completely.

1. Smartphone Stab Wound Guys decrease in likelihood

2. More realistic-looking smartphone stabs

In either case it doesn't exactly inspire confidence in self-driving cars.

It's complicated. Bruce Artwick (the main person behind Microsoft FS in the 1980s and 1990s) created FS I and FS II (originally on the Apple ][) for Sublogic. Then Artwick left to create his own studio, which in turn created Microsoft FS, clearly initially based upon FS II. Meanwhile, Sublogic continued to sell FS II for various non-Microsoft platforms.

I don't particularly care if work visas get harder. Maybe they should.

What should be done is serious scrutiny _before_ someone is admitted. Once they are, the system should get out of their way. A person is working for years at some company, paying their taxes, spotless track record (often not even traffic tickets as they can cause trouble) and yet, they cannot even sponsor for permanent residency themselves. They depend on some company, which has no interest of doing so until the time is close to running out.

I sympathize a lot with the licensing story of Caddy. /u/mholt has been a very active maintainer and participant in the larger Go community and has every right to create a commercial side to the project and receive compensation for their work.

But licensing is hard. AWS abused the leniency of Elasticsearch's original OSS license, so now the industry is set back 10 years with new entrants trying to find the balance between inviting community participation and getting gob smacked by big corporate interests.

Im not saying Elastic.co is an angel but its a lesson OSS projects have to take to heart, unfortunately. Thanks Amazon.
After make a real project with svelte here my observations…
I think it demonstrates why it's so easy for technology to run ahead of ethics. No one wants to hear a public safety announcement when they get the keys to a new car.

OTOH, I think the risk of CSAM from this kind of thing is overblown, because either (1) it wouldn't actually involve real children in any way, or (2) the model would have to be train on actual CSAM, which there are already laws against.

If no humans are harmed by it at any stage, then how's it any different from the CGI murders all over movies and TV? In the absence of harm, the only reason to consider it a crime is that it's disgusting. But we don't prosecute people for having sick thoughts, just for acting on them. If you take the child and abuse out of the equation, the only argument left is that seeing CSAM (artificial or not) is a "gateway drug" to commiting child abuse. If that's the case then why shouldn't we prosecute people for watching Dexter, on the grounds that they're on their way to becoming serial killers?

> The killer with high property taxes is that you have to keep earning more as your property increases in value, or there is a real risk of you falling behind

Not if the municipality has a fixed budget and all property values are rising in the municipality. The mill-rate changes so that you only pay more taxes if your property has gone up relatively more than other properties in your municipality. See thread here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32528916

Also if your property value has gone up, you have gained equity, so that may offset increased taxes (depending on divers factors).
> a decent understanding of food

You wonder sometimes, the things they say. Perhaps it is more accurate to say that they have an active interest in food? Which goes to show that when people want something to change, they'll take an interest and make change happen. If they are content with the way things are and vote for the status quo, that's their vote to make. Just because you didn't get your way with your inane pet ideas doesn't mean voting doesn't work.

> Google (and other tech monopolies) do not have readily available substitutes.

TV, radio, billboards, flyers... There are all kinds of substitutes. Some of which can command a lot of money from their customers because of them providing a proven valuable service. Google and the like may be the best in the biz, but there are a lot of other choices which are quite viable substitutes.

Google even suffered through the "adpocalypse", a period when customers did flee when they weren't happy with what Google was doing. We don't have to invent hypotheticals. It literally happened to them and it forced them to change things about their business to start to win customers back.

Voting works. That doesn't mean you will win.

We're currently using Heroku for app hosting, while evaluating fly.io, render.com and railway.app. All three have had exceptional reviews from other customers and differ slightly on their service offerings and setups. All seem like viable alternatives so far!

Visual scripting works reasonably well for very high level scripting, but even then it is very "verbose and space inefficient". Writing actual game logic requires a lot of moving stuff around even for small changes. It is also hard to share in our text-first world, so helping or getting community help on it ends up in attachment hell or trading screenshots, both of which are not ideal.

As the blog post says, it can probably work better in something like Unreal because the engine already has a lot of things that Godot (and Unity and other similar engines, for that matter) simply does not aim to support. Just as an example, Unreal has a centralized concept of "health" and "dying", so they can provide default libraries to handle the minutia of such things (can health go negative? is "dead" a recoverable state? etc)

As for why GDScript specifically is the most popular choice, it's both due to community and due to the engine's design itself. Being literally made for the engine, Godot and GDScript have ver closely tied semantics, which are a (a little) bit more boilerplate-y to handle with GDNative-based alternatives. And since it's such less hassle (and until recently was near the only option), most of the community has built learning materials and libraries optimized for that use.
Looks more like "erotica" than "pornography" to me. More of a titillation (leaving something out) and appreciation of form than direct sexual stimulation by magnification of the actual act of sex (in all its various forms).

But, yes, finally! I wonder why it took so long for someone to use these kinds of models to do the obvious. So is the nature of genius.

I remember 25 years ago in grad school, when I was getting my PhD and working on Natural Language Processing, a conversation with a fellow grad student who was studying and teaching French, and planning to work as a translator.

She said: "So you guys are trying to put me out of a job?"

I laughed and reassured her, because we were then still a few years off from even the easiest doesn't-have-to-be-great automated translations being any good, and was confident that while the simpler stuff would get picked off and the machines might be able to make some first-pass translations (that would actually help the working human translators), the demand would always be there for good, accurate, idiomatic translation that's not going to drop in some weird thing in the middle and confuse someone or mess up a negotiation, and that kind of automated translation seemed like it would not arrive in our lifetimes.

I still think so. Good translation is AI-complete.

Anyway, so, that seems relevant here.
