True, but a race war is us against us, a class war is 90% vs 10%... the 10% currently in power.

The southern strategy was to literally go against anything that would benefit black people, EVEN if it benefited poor white people too, because it's better to be miserable and white than to let a black person get ahead of you from government handouts. This was the entire strategy of the GOP(still is) since the 1950s.

I think the centrists (which may even just be a 'role' they play) goal is to keep both parties fighting on fringe issues like abortion and guns so we don't stop to reevaluate how much we're being fleeced by the govt to create $$ for their buddies in the oil and defense industries. Their purpose is to appear w/ the others, but only slightly and to ensure that the status quo remains intact.

Lee atwater said in 1981:

“As to the whole Southern strategy that Harry S. Dent, Sr. and others put together in 1968, opposition to the Voting Rights Act would have been a central part of keeping the South. Y’all don’t quote me on this. You start out in 1954 by saying, ‘N*er, n*er, n*er’. By 1968 you can’t say ‘n*er’—that hurts you. Backfires. So you say stuff like forced busing, states’ rights and all that stuff. You’re getting so abstract now [that] you’re talking about cutting taxes, and all these things you’re talking about are totally economic things and a byproduct of them is [that] blacks get hurt worse than whites. And subconsciously maybe that is part of it. I’m not saying that. But I’m saying that if it is getting that abstract, and that coded, that we are doing away with the racial problem one way or the other. You follow me—because obviously sitting around saying, ‘We want to cut this’, is much more abstract than even the busing thing, and a hell of a lot more abstract than ‘N*r, n*r.’ So, any way you look at it, race is coming on the back-burner.”

When I read this a few years back, it totally just clicked - that this is the entire economic platform of the right. Working class republicans support things that go against their own best interest (medicare for all for example), simply because they damn well don't want non-whites to have nice things, even if it means they don't get to either. Asinine as hell, but generations of racism and bigotry don't generally create tolerant people wanting to switch things up.
Doesn't pass the no-bulge requirement, but I've carried an AirTag in the coin pocket of my Big SKinny wallet for several months. Granted, the wallet sits in a side pocket on my pants, and not in the back pocket.

I've already had to track it a couple times.

I had no intention to portray myself as more qualified to talk about it. I should have made myself more clear, I'm sorry about that. I was offering my point of view on it. It's of course completely subjective, so your perspective is no less valid than mine. I should have been more explicit about that.

And the example you cited wouldn't be okay with me at all. I was thinking more about suicide related humour in general, I guess.

To me personally it's always been important to be open about it and to have some irony to get past the shame I had to work through.

I get why you feel that way, having lost your brother. Just last month my brother died at 39 from complication after a long life of drug addiction. If someone tried to joke about him I would probably lose it and just start shouting at them.
do you want to live in a world where your surgeon was 'brought up the opportunity curve'? (very nice euphemism, i'll be using that, thanks
The web is made of links. It's quite annoying to switch browsers when following links.
Open AI vs "OpenAI", very different things.

The fact that I can do this on commodity hardware on a 4GB model. A model that understands text and visual images, just absolutely blows my mind.

I almost feel like in a new future, a 100GB model may be able to offline handle speech -> text, video -> live scene graph. A robot that could base level physical understanding of our world like a 4 year old does. (objects, their relationship to other objects and behaviors)
that 6ghz intel chip will probably use at least 300W too (12900ks uses 274W)
I'm looking forward to such a model being announced too, as I'm sure people must already be working on it.

I did think, though, that a pre-requisite for such a model would be a system which could separate a track into its component instruments (and reverse engineer all the audio mixing that went into the final product) in order to reduce the dimensionality of the input to the learning model.

There's been some progress on that front, but not enough to produce a perfect transcription, and I'm not even sure if a transcription to sheet music would be the ideal data representation for an AI to truly understand what makes a good piece of music anyway.
Yep, looked into Cassowary after digging into AutoLayout (which is apparently based loosely on Cassowary). I struggle with the math since I'm not formally trained.
My intuition is that it'd be great for good teachers who match decently with their students, but borderline outright abusive with a bad teacher or students with a major teacher mismatch.
I do deny it. Governments reducing the amount of regulation they have on society is the opposite of power expansion.

You seem to be of the mindset that governments cannot improve as an axiom and only the free market can. I categorically disagree with that kind of view
I am sorry but I have been adulting a long time and that has not been my experience. Even when I was driving across town and doing 12hr night shifts I still has 2-3hrs a day to watch a move or waste time on the internet. I don't have a social life but if I did I can imagine spending it at bars,clubs, hanging out with people,etc... but my lack of social life is my own problem or choice.
Any idea what for? I feel like PoE doesn't involve that much compute other than what would be offloading to the gpu. Maps are static, and I would have assumed that mobs are primarily computed server-side based on some sort of loosely synchronized state.

I guess I could imagine a few threads for managing different 'panes', a thread for chat, a thread for audio maybe? It's hard to think of 24 independent units of work.

I'm not a game dev, just used to play PoE and curious.
Which freedom do you mean here? The freedom to record everything you see, or the freedom to expect at least some privacy even in public (which people believed they had before cameras, and automated tools for analyzing and spreading the image, became ubiquitous)?

Practically every freedom is infringing on somebody else's freedom. We should not be eager to assume that some specific freedom we treasure does not impose a restriction on somebody else. It's rarely a straightforward moral absolute. We balance conflicting rights all the time.
It helps you structure the story, no AI involved.
And 5 years from now when USB-C 11.6rev5 (with a new 100pin physical connector) is commonplace for our 8k Displays, framework laptop owners can spend $40 to buy a new "dongle". The Lenovo owners will be buying a new laptop (or a Dongle / dock. something that physically hangs off the laptop).

Repeat this process as every external connector changes physical layout, non backwards compatible change, etc.

There is no perfectly forward and backward compatible laptop port layout. Lenovo does it one way (which some people like). Framework has gone a different direction (which a lot of other people seem to like).
I've replaced several MikroTik 's with something more expensive several times due to just being too slow under load , it's just how they are. You need to spend real $ to get real speed, even for gigabit connections. I know people to use them extensively who say the same.
meritocracy ftw..
It's probably true; schools are generally run for the benefit and convenience of teachers, not students. The former have a strong union with outsized influence on local elections, whereas the latter don't even vote. The same incentives lead to early school start times which help teachers at the cost of students (particularly teenagers who generally have 'later' circadian rhythms).
Ask HN: Open-source Windows Airplay screen mirroring?
I have a very limited use case for mirroring an iPhone screen on a Windows PC, and when I’ve looked around I’ve only found paid software that does this. I can’t possibly justify spending $15 to read some text in a game, and I prefer to use free/open source software when possible anyway.
Short of genetic modification, we are always going to live in a world where your opportunities depend on the characteristics you were born with. We can smooth it out somewhat, but not remove it completely.

Look at discrimination against unattractive people for one - it is actually more pronounced (although less overtly visible) than discrimination by race, but gets significantly less media coverage. There are also many other axes - height, intelligence, character - most of which are heavily influenced by genetics; we simply consider it acceptable to discriminate based on these attributes.
Ah, hey Josh. I didn't realize you were involved in this effort. FWIW, seeing your name associated with this definitely gives it a bit more authority than I had originally assumed.
>you can't deny that a black woman has had a vastly difference life experience than a white man

So, where i get stuck, is that you can't actually make this statement about any individual black woman or white man.

The one common theme across all of social justice is that stereotyping is bad. Erasing individuality and forcing people to live in the shadow of their stereotypes is bad.

Yet its apparently allowed here? Because it mostly benefits minorities?

This is the unspoken line the separates identity politics and equality. A focus on minorities vs a focus on ending discrimination and stereotyping, which under equality would include AA.

When (most) people say they are against "woke" culture or "sjws" they generally mean they are against the identity politics flavor of ""equality"". Because identity politics is just a racist sexist dog whistle for discrimination against majorities.

There has always been a trade-off between modularity and size. Each card is effectively a USB-C/Thunderbolt dongle, so they need to be big enough to fit a reasonable amount of electronics (like 1TB of NAND, or an Ethernet IC) plus the shell and connectors. If your needs are basic (just USB, 3.5mm, 1x HDMI etc.) then you should get the Thinkpad. But if you want modularity for special cases (e.g. triple HDMI, double Ethernet, or triple MicroSD readers) or if you like to move your ports to alternating sides of your laptop, then the Framework's expansion system is for you. Framework is inherently a compromise between thickness and modularity (also why I assume it uses an internal battery) in a 14" portable laptop. Perhaps a new generation could shoehorn in a non-card USB-C port, although that would break their design rule that all ports support Thunderbolt.
Really, a lot of bad fiction writing could be fixed if writers were more aware of fundamentals like these. Of course there is art that goes into writing a novel, but there's a lot of craft, too. "Know the rules well, so you can break them effectively" is a saying I had always attributed to jazz musicians, but the interweb seems to think it was the Dalai Lama who said it. Either way, it applies to almost every field I can think of.
Well now I want a Framework laptop - granted, what I'd use this for is uploading media to youtube etc, and for now free options just aren't as good as Final Cut Pro or Premiere so I'll be sticking to my usb-c to 2.5G adapter for my macbook pro. Someday though!
It's real in the way anything I make up is real. It's really made up, and a way to pretend like the product died rather than the support for it.

> there's also some point where I'd say "I wont be updating this anymore", as to phase it out.

You don't get to phase out my stuff. If you're not going to update it anymore, you've broken our support relationship, so you should also be breaking the hardware and software locks that prevent me from getting support from another source.
Oh A for sure! People are not idiots (generally). It is in fact not just us, the cool smart guys, who «see the world for what it really is» or «don’t like to waste our time with pointless sophistry». Everybody does!

I can tell you’re the kind of thoughtful serious guy who likes good, tasteful and neccesary things, and yet! You dislike bad, tasetless and unneeded things. I do too, and so does everyone else, on balance.

Ps: I feel obliged to remind you to not say the quiet part out loud. Not because the elephant in the room might trample you, but because at least one reader had to muster heroic amounts of good faith to not dismiss out of hand the substance of your post due to form. And even still, I could not abstain from this disclaimer.
I like your perspective, as well as some of the points other commentors have made in response to your own. However, there is one point you make that I disagree/question - is a physical skill and grace not also a form of knowing? The human body and brain are intrinsically connected "machines" (not a term/concept I love, but for want of a better one...) and so their knowing and learning must surely be tied together. But, larger than this yet so interconnected - is this aspect of our being not also where we experience our first limitations? And if so, then wouldn't that imply limitations to our purely cognitive experience? For example: I can swim (a physical skill), but due to pure bodily limitations (height, arm/leg span, etc.) will never be an Olympian (a physical achievement). Surely, you and I could be taught how to and practice as we would attempt to learn, but still likely never achieve the grace of a ballerina, possibly regardless of the age at which we begin. And so - how is it that this "failure"/limitation could not also be applied to the cognitive? Isn't also likely that our own intelligence could have similar limitations that we perhaps aren't even aware of, for how would we measure? Again, just positing some questions your comment brought to mind; in particular, I appreciate the idea of the depth of mental "stack" being the quality of measurement that matters in differentiating intelligence levels. And so now: to find the physical stack, which in this case is both metaphorical and real (for the weight lifters out there, anyway).
> I suspect much of the "lesson plan" submission stuff is TPS-level busywork.

Yes and no. The submission part is certainly pointless. No one reads them after the day they're used.

But having a plan each day is kind of important and well supported by data as a beneficial practice.

"Truth" and "understanding" are both things that have changed throughout human history, they are not fixed. Art can be something that changes the way you understand the world, which would change your idea of what the truth is about reality.

I just rewatched Goodfellas the other day. No doubt that film brought a deeper understanding for many many people about mafia philosophy, history and events, and inspired more research (I went down a Wikipedia rabbit hole after watching it, myself). Dali's melting clocks might suggest a new way to conceive of time. I only dabble a little in science fiction, but my impression is that it has historically inspired plenty of scientific and engineering endeavors, including AI generated art (and I'm sure there are plenty of dystopians out there that may show how it could go wrong). Reading literature from everything between the ancients and contemporaries, I'm constantly finding things that parallel my current interpersonal challenges and give me new insights.

What is "truth" to you?
But even in non Waldorf schools, it’s common to have the same teacher for the first 4 years, sometimes longer.

At least it’s common here, in East Germany.

I also think it is kind of important that it is this way, because kids learn FOR their teacher. A positive relationship must come first. Of course conflicts can happen. If this is the case and parents feel their children don’t grow to their full potential there are lot of ways to resolve the conflicts.
I grew up going to South Square too. Lots of fond memories. I've also been living near Northgate for the last decade or so, and that has been a depressing experience. Watching it decay, finally shut down, and some of the newer, more attractive nearby tenants like Planet Fitness now packing up shop has been incredibly saddening. I just hope Randy's Pizza and C&H Cafeteria will stick around, but it's more likely the entire strip with be torn down to be developed into condos that start at $2k/mo.

I would love to see some of these spaces be repurposed for more affordable housing, which we desperately need, but it isn't "financially feasible" in the eyes of these developers [1].

Many PCMCIA/ExpressCard solutions also used dongles. Dongles are unsightly but USB-C/Thunderbolt with a dongle can really replace anything that an ExpressCard could do, and more.
> I wonder why there was never a standardized PCIE 'card' format? Seems like the perfect thing for extra storage with NVME being so common these days.

The best thing about standards is that there are so many of them to choose from. The closest analogue is the ExpressCard (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ExpressCard), but there's also the internal-only M.2 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M.2), which is the most common non-server format for NVMe; mini-PCIe (similar to M.2, used mostly for wireless); SD express (SD cards, but with PCIe); and CFexpress (CompactFlash cards, but with PCIe).
Nope! The bare minimum we could do is start getting mad about how rich the rich are, and stop fighting among ourselves. Diversity is a tool used by the rich to keep us from uniting against them, and sadly it is really effective.
For that I think you have to use text/html so that you can reference the inline image's Content-ID. The rest of the 'HTML' could be plaintext of course, just needed for the <img>. You could also have related text/plain and text/html only for wherever you need the image - but support of that is probably even patchier than inline attachments.

Since they're all full fledged tb4 ports they're likely limited in the number they can put in. Other laptops are just building in a separate USB root for multiple ports off once tb channel.

They could have maybe laid them out in a way that would have made making double-wide modules easier or something though, maybe.
Unless you work for an incredibly benevolent company, "library author" means you're doing that on your own time, outside of what provides for your income.

Many of us are quite capable of writing libraries, and likely do so in an internal-only fashion, but have no interest in trying to be the nth new library that accomplishes the same thing during our free time.

Skill vs. effort vs. drive are all very different things.
The charge could have been unpaid parking tickets, it wouldn't change anything. The point is they had a charge and they failed to engage with the legal system like functional adults. You can fight the charge like any other.

Instead they keep trying to evade the legal system and inevitably get someone knocking at the door.

If your response to that knock on the door is to shoot, you get what's coming to you.

The other point is that this unsympathetic case is viewed in some special light when there's a ton of cases where the government is much much more clearly in the wrong.

The difference is that in those other cases it's generally a "them" (ethnic minorities, urban poor, etc.) whereas for libertarian weirdoes like Weaver they somehow get lumped in the HackerNews zeitgeist's "us".
I have not heard this claim either and I work in the EDI space.

No idea why this is on HN other than seeing an EDI company fumble a marketing article so badly while trying to stay relevant.
It really depends on how you choose to define the granularity. I prefer my commits to all be buildable at least, and ideally also pass the tests (so new code + new tests for it should be in the same commit); but that is subjective and there are valid arguments for smaller commits that are not necessarily isolated like that.

I can't think of any special tools you'd need for this? A git history visualizer with the ability to easily diff and squash ranges helps, but this is nothing special for pretty much any modern IDE. At the end of the day, you just look through the WIP branch history and identify chunks that span multiple commits but logically represent a single change towards some goal.
Depends on the apartment building I think?

A lot of apartments I've looked at come with some form of lockable storage space on the ground floor.
The problem in these cases is not that you can't buy them at a premium - it is that you cannot buy them at all. What do you do if nobody can supply you the part at any price?

> There was a dream of remote education, where the best educators in the world can reach out and teach students anywhere in the world, and be a great equalizer of education.

I don't think any actual parent shared this "dream". People don't realize that the school system is primarily a daycare. Education is a secondary concern for most.
Ok, seems like it is time to debunk the usual shitstorm of "arguments"...

There was no "rollback". The DAO hack was reverted through a state change that only happened because there was a consensus on the miners to do it.
