One fundamentally wrong assumption here is the part about superseding Neanderthals. We didn’t supersede thousands of other species. There is no reason to believe humans would get superseded, we’re just too useful. It’s more likely we’ll be employed instead.

Another questionable assumption is of course that future tense.

Each TGV seats 500-700 people, about 100 to 500 times better than you RR average model 3. And goes a lot faster. I'd be curious to know the M3's mileage above 300 kph.

I thought regenerative braking was a strong point of trains? The motor is probably of comparable efficiency, I expect power electronics to be worse, indeed.

Office on the web actually does this really well now. The desktop app is a little more glitchy, but Google doesn't even have one of those. I really like tracked changes in Word on the web. Microsoft has come a real long way in the last three years.
I don't know about that, piracy on the Xbox was a lot easier than the PS2. It wasn't until FreeMcBoot came along around 2007 or 2008 that PS2 piracy really became accessible to the lay person, and that was after the 7th generation of consoles launched.
I don't get it. It used to be software licenses were being sold for like $10 or $20 dollars. Now $.99 a month is somehow more palatable than $20 for life? I don't believe it. I think perhaps organizations got too large in their bureaucracy. Times were probably leaner for the business folk when software were sold for $10 and $20 or even $120 dollars for Adobe products.

All that being said, it stands to reason you could structure your business to be lean enough to ask for $10 or $20 or $120 licenses again, because it worked fine a decade ago, and nothing significantly changed to make it not work now other than all the sexier corporate real estate these companies have invested into across the US and expanding administrations.

You could take a share of that profit from license sales after paying your immediate overhead to set up some sort of trust that can pay out maintainers for that software long into the future. It can even be structured to outlast the development company if done correctly.

The thing is that Lisp-1 doesn't prevent you from naming a variable lisp; you may then have a problem if you try to use the list function in the same scope.

It is a very important issue, because it interacts with hygiene in the face of macros.

Lisp-1 dialects, and more broadly, single namespace languages, require hygienic macros if they have a macro system.

Hygienic macros systems are gross; not everyone likes their complexity. They have referential transparency comes at the cost of sacrificing implementation transparency.

A user of a Lisp-2 language can pretend that hygienic macros don['t exist, and be happy for the rest of their days.

The reason is that if you do this in a Lisp-2, you're safe:

(let ((list '(1 2 3))
(opaque-macro list))

Suppose opaque-macro has an expansion which contains (list ...) calls. Those are unaffected by the variable. opaque-macro would cause a problem if it tried to bind a variable called list.
That is taken care of in unhygienic macro programming by using explicit gensyms.

There could be a problem if there was a list variable that opaque-macro's expansion depends on. For that we have (1) nameing conventions like *list* for varaibles and (2) package system: macros coming from a foobar library, such that the variable they reference is foobar::list, unrelated to the user's (let ((list ...))).

The whole Lisp-2 + unnhygienic macros (+ packages) is easy to work with and understand, simple and pragmatic.
> This merge to PoS is just exposing that people with wealth always have a say on how the system works, whether it is miners or stakers it was and is always controlled by few .

Miners nor stakers can decide how the system works, Ethereum does not have on-chain governance. 51% of miners/stakers can't just post invalid blocks crediting them with free money nor can they force anyone else's wallet to do anything that wasn't signed by the private key. The worst you can really do is refuse to include transactions in your blocks for as long as you are controlling the network, all it takes is one honest actor to include your transaction and it will finalize.

Sure that's bad, but it's not "RCE via iMessage" -bad. The attacker would need to already have access to your homeserver, and be connected to successfully pull off the attack. If that's a concern for you, it's not hard to put Matrix behind a VPN.

This is the part where I'd compare it to the CVEs of other popular messaging apps, but most of them don't have the confidence to be this transparent with their audience. YMMV, but "rolling your own" groupware isn't going to be safer than using an alternative supported by two or more users.

Question: why would someone believe that responsibly disclosing vulnerabilities that only affect local devices and mostly enable the owner of a device to gain root access to it is the best thing to do, instead of just publishing them outright? I understand responsible disclosure for server vulns that could cause harm to third party's plattforms or devices, but it seems unnecessary for this case.

Hi HN,
I've been working on an idea of linking digital receipts to transactions through the ethereum blockchain using NFTs.

This will produce a digital receipt that looks like this:

Hydrogen will be important, just not necessarily for personal vehicles. But it still could be, if battery cost bottoms out.

Making H2 at home may end up more practical than charging your battery at home, particularly if your car is away from home when power is free.

Facebook was an obvious yawn even in 2005.
Several years back, frustrated by this same problem and underlying constraints, I spent a weekend writing a machine-aided cost minification algorithm (aka what most startups call "advanced ML") that used LAB and LUV to try and pick 2x8 colors (the eight colors in dark/bright configurations) where the cost was defined as

a) how far apart each of the color pairs was from one another (hue only),

b) how far apart each dark/bright color in a pair were from one another,

c) how high the contrast against a specific background color (provided as a parameter),

d) how far the perceived brightness of any "bright" color differed from the rest of the "bright" colors,

e) how far the perceived brightness of any "dark" color differed from the rest of the "dark" colors,

f) how far each of the 8 base colors strayed from a range that could passably be called the de facto colors mapped to each of the palette members (e.g. cyan, blue, black, white, etc) so that TUI apps using colors not to distinguish but to draw (expecting "blue" to be a shade of blue) would not be thrown off.

Unfortunately I never found the results to be pleasing to the eye. I also think there was something wrong in either the math of the individual cost function factors themselves or the weights assigned to each factor because I didn't feel like the results were properly spaced out or representative of what even a local minima what look like if the math was all correct. I didn't really want to put more time into it than I already had, but I'm convinced that it's possible to generate a fixed set of 2x8 colors that meet these conditions for any given background color (at least one for a black or dark grey background and another palette for a white or off-white background).
"Anti-racist" to me simply means "against racism; actively ensuring racism doesn't occur". Maybe it means something different in the US.

You still can get it, but only after contacting support:

However, they only offer access to the Mac app, and don’t get all the other benefits of a subscription.

And now they have to deal with cloud leaks of sensitive data that they no longer control and various SOC2/ISO "certifications" increasingly look like security theater and a "feel good" measure because they don't guarantee anything.

Due to the way your body extracts energy from fat and glycogen, your brisk walk should (for most people) keep your heart rate around 120bpm for a sustained period of around an hour.

Yeah, this is called "bullet voting" (for those that don't know). It is often brought up as a killer strategy to cardinal systems but it really isn't that bad. No system is immune to strategies and I think people just find one strategy and disregard a system because they found a flaw. Social choice is over constrained. There are trade-offs and local optimizations but no global optimization. We can't talk about voting systems without acknowledging this point.

To be clear, bullet voting in Score is equivalent to Approval Voting. AV still has a lot of advantages over Runoff Voting.

> It's likely that voters just didn't read the directions

This is actually a point (that I don't bring up much because it is minor) that I prefer cardinal over ranked. It is much easier to mess up a ranked ballot than cardinal. Give the same score to multiple candidates? No problem. In a ranked ballot you have issues and no good resolutions (toss ballot, flip a coin on preference and then reorder? Both of which can be called voter manipulation, despite them not really being). These issues arise more as the system scales too.

The big killer to me (besides the information embedding) is the tallying (backend that voters don't see). Cardinal systems are just an argmax reduce-sum (trivially parallelizable). Trivial to calculate and do statistical samples/verification on. This is a lot harder with run-off systems. The multi-elections required actually takes a lot of man power. Just think about how recounts like Arizona would happen under Cardinal vs Ordinal. This is something people really have to consider when accounting for voting systems. There is a front end and back end but most people argue front end + a few cherry picked strategies.

Hair color is something you're born with and is a genetic mutation based off lineage and other factors. I don't think they directly corelate and it wouldn't necessarily even make it to the Supreme Court. Most businesses aren't going to appeal to say that they can discriminate based on hair color nor willingly admit to doing so, nor would they ever likely make the argument that they did it and that it is okay.

> something which was a way bigger deal than the transition from DVD to Blu-Ray.

I always find that interesting, because to my eyes the quality jump from DVD to Blu-Ray is the biggest we've ever seen (and likely ever will see) in home video formats, way bigger than the move from VHS to DVD. I don't think DVD has aged particularly well, especially in a world of non-interlaced digital flat panel displays. A properly mastered Blu-Ray disc still looks considerably better than the HD streams being offered by just about any modern streaming service, but DVD generally looks worse than your typical 480p stream.
- OO programming is vastly overrated and introduces unnecessary complexity, internal state, and difficulty debugging to projects, in exchange for for composability that is almost never needed in the way that it is provided.

- 99% of the internet software ecosystem is just awful, and they don't realize it because of insufficient crossover with other programming disciplines. Everything is incredibly bloated and slow for marginal benefit.

- About half of machine learning projects could be replaced with a Kalman filter or other recursive Bayesian estimator.

Hypothetically, CA is financially incentivized to find that out, how is the the question.

But, if they do then they are going to

1) audit

2) if you don't respond to audit and tax -- arrest

3) at the same time suit the employer, especially if they have any operations in CA for not declaring your work properly.

As for the video, it's a pretty interesting analysis imho that I haven't seen done this comprehensively before. It shows that several times successor chips actually were downgrades in efficiency, even when using a new fab node. It also shows how much of a difference there is between TSMC and Samsung fabs for the same cores.

As an outsider, what it looks like to me is that USA needs some kind of law to severely restrict people from circulating freenly between these environments.

A huge amount of people in the media are ex-intelligence or ex-law enforcement, lots of people in big tech worked for democratic party and vice-versa.

Or the secretary of defense that works for Raytheon...

As an outsider it looks to me that USA really wants to top all other countries and be first place in the world in amount of conflict of interest, nepotism and industry inbreeding.

Regulators aren't much better, for example Boeing employees that analyze the Max on behalf of regulators or Twitter that are just verbally interviewed about their security practices without providing any proof.
