A few other ways to thing about the lottery question. What are the chances this sequence would occur in the entire history of the lottery to date? What are the chances that any sequence of multiples of 9 would get drawn? What are the chances that any sequence of multiples of any number would be drawn? What are the chances that any simple mathematical progression of numbers of any kind would be drawn, again in the history of the lottery not just on one day?

I play an online game called Axis & Allies 1942 Online. It uses dice for resolving battles, and in a typical game you might roll many dozens of battles and several handfuls of virtual dice for each battle. We regularly see people go on Discord or the Steam forums to complain that some extraordinarily unlikely outcome happened to them. The thing is with thousands of people playing the game, typically in several games at a time, each rolling hundreds of handfuls of dice every day, one in 10,000 odds outcomes that seem extreme are going to happen on a daily basis to someone. Often several someones a day. Every now and them one of those people is likely to go and complain about it online, so IMHO this is an expected outcome. So far this argument doesn't seem to have convinced many of the 'victims' though.

Spot on. When I did LSD for the first time I was honestly shocked at my experience juxtaposed with what I had learned about psychedelics in popular culture (read: Thompson-esque). I didn't hallucinate at all. Rather, my mind was just more amenable to thoughts I wouldn't normally explore. It dropped my fears and judgements alongside making most things somewhat funny and giving me a ton of energy.

I suspect "Celsius execs" are about to get a tour of US bankruptcy law's clawbacks policy.

Anyone who withdrew money from Celsius in the 90 days leading up to the bankruptcy can be ordered by the judge to put it back in, and that timeline is extended to 1 year for insiders. [1]

A bunch of the folks who thought they got out of Madoff's fund learned that lesson last time.

I don't know... I went to a very competitive public high school in an affluent suburb. In most of my friend groups (self-segregated based on taking honors and APs), most people got at least above a 1450 on the SAT or maybe 32 on the ACT. At the end of the day we were taking Calc II (AP Calculus BC) when the highest math on either exam is the very beginnings of trigonometry.

EDIT: Many did take the exam 2 or 3 times, until they got a score they were satisfied with.

We still partied, drank, played a fuck ton of video games, generally did stupid shit, normal teenager things. This was largely the case in neighboring schools as well (the Atlanta northern sprawl is very large).

I'm not saying we didn't have parental involvement; we absolutely did. They had the resources and investment in our education to push us along that path. Our school also had a lot of resources. But it wasn't prison.

I'm not sure if it was the parental involvement and their expectations or the resources and quality of education at our affluent school. Most likely both. Whatever it is, I think it's a travesty that it isn't the norm everywhere to have an opportunity for that kind of education. There is so much wasted potential in this country.

Shitloads of whites come from disadvantaged backgrounds and have terrible lives. This is part of why one party is able to capitalize so well on lazy and loose rhetoric from the other about race and inequality. "The fuck I had unfair advantages! They want special treatment because their skin's a different color, they can go to hell! I'm voting for the other guy!" (this is not an endorsement of that attitude, but an explanation—and, confounding matters, you get similar reactions from people who did have advantages but are either deceiving themselves or are idiots)

On the internet, it's impossible to know who is knowingly spreading propaganda and who actually believes what they're saying, but... does anyone actually believe that's a reasonable definition of "far right"?

Like, this just reads like a "far left" person wrote a long list of negative slander to throw at their opponents. I don't think anyone on the right would agree with essentially any of it.

The "ultra-nationalist" I guess maybe sort of works, if hyperbolic, in that I think you would get right-wing people to agree that they would prioritize their nation over others, but I think if you asked a random right-wing person on the street "do you support ____" for anything else on your list, they'd say no.

I'm solidly on the left by contemporary American standards, but I just wish we'd actually have honest discussions about what people believe and want, rather than slinging insults that our opponents are evil, vile people who intentionally want bad things because they're bad.
This is not about you, please stop; no reason to believe that either your own well being or life is on the line, nor for that matter, that of your friends and family.

Concept of plausible deniability is vital in situations like this for all parties involved. Unless you are able to prove via evidence it is not, please refrain from (repeatedly) commenting on a topic, that at least to me, you appear to be unfamiliar with and has the very real potential to result in physical harm to others.

If I have errored in my reasoning, please feel free to explicitly state why. Thanks.

What a ridiculous premise. The value of your time does not come in some sort of interchangeable unit where 1 hour of TV repair is comparable to 1 hour of Firefox bug-fixing. Realistically, if the author decided to get a new TV, he would not spend that new-saved time trying to make up for the environmental damage he caused by throwing his old TV out.

(And who is even to say your bugfix would save power? It's not like Firefox has a power-usage detector in their CI pipeline.)

> Statically typed functional languages like Haskell and OCaml allow much more correct code and reject much more wrong code

In functional code, sure. In a predominantly mutable algorithm, you fight the language more than what you gain, and sometimes, yes, the mutable approach is simpler and easier to reason about. Especially local mutability can be very readable/maintainable.

Sidebar: I don't know what "tech-washing" means. When I see that a company is laundering some bias or some social advantage through a machine learning model I just call it money laundering, because the inputs and outputs are both money and I think we've coined enough new victimhood words per year every year for many years.

If a company is profiting off it's "open-source" contributions, getting out more than it's putting in, then it's washing money through GitHub I guess. That's fair.

But "tech-washing" has this implication that any computer hacker is in a bad way, which is just silly: back when we had to go to the office the freeway overpasses we drove on had tent encampments under them.

Take that up with the Ayn Rand idiots who are not uncommon in these parts.
I think you misunderstand the article. "The state of Michigan required all public HS seniors to take the SAT last year". That's not related to universities or applying to them. It is the data for all high school seniors in the state of Michigan.
So is height, and historically there have been large differences in height between the rich and poor. In modern developed countries, however, there doesn't seem to be any significant difference based on socioeconomic level. That leads me to believe that these "nutritional deficiencies" don't exist and are not what is causing any observed gap in IQ or academic achievement.

It's not nearly as crazy as it sounds. If you were accused of murder and your alibi was you were at a bar, then the court could force the bar to produce any video footage they had, any records of transactions etc. If it was claimed that I was at said bar on said night, I could be forced to appear in court and produce any diary entries I had, any photos on my phone from that night. These are reasonable requests.

I understand it's tempting to blame it on racism, but please go talk to non-white store owners. They do the same thing, it's not about the race.

You have to pick which battle you're going to fight.

Either racism today is the major problem. Or there's racism in the past that lead to poverty in the present. Those are two different lenses dictating two different strategies.

You can choose to feel righteous and fight ever-elusive racism.

Or you can chose to be pragmatic and fight poverty.

Being righteous is definitely more pleasant and convincing to the masses, but it rarely produces better results than being pragmatic.

Please, this is absurd. No president has had more of his associates go to jail than Trump [1], and Mueller's investigation found that Trump knew about Russian interference, chose to do nothing since it helped him, and obstructed justice [2]. And now we know that he stole Top Secret/SCI documents from the country [3], and has yet to return all of them [4]. These attempts to make "the Biden crime family" a meme are very weak and fall flat on their face.

I'm a bit surprised about the enthusiasm for legalizing hallucinogenic drugs.

The majority of political and diplomatic agreements are more informal and not encoded in written law, and often happen via back channels. Your own article acknowledges such an understanding existed:

> To be sure, the former Soviet president [Gorbachev] criticized NATO enlargement and called it a violation of the spirit of the assurances given Moscow in 1990

If your quibble is with my use of the term "agreement" vs. "assurances", then we can just agree that there was no formal agreement, but that doesn't really change the argument. If this understanding didn't exist, why didn't Ukraine join NATO years ago? Because there was an understanding going back to the 1990s that Russia felt threatened by NATO and that expanding in this fashion could provoke an escalation of hostilities between nuclear powers, and this was sort of thing should probably be avoided lest we start another cold war or worse.

To be clear, I'm sure this is merely one excuse Putin among many is using, the point being that not giving loons excuses to legitimize their actions is generally a good idea.

Ask HN: Should OS licences evolve to consider training of AI models?
There has (quite rightly) been a lot of discussion on the internet about whether training Copilot on non-permissively licensed open source code is fair. There are similar debates to be had about training DALL-E and others on artworks.

For software, my feeling is that this is very much a grey area, so why not make it explicit?

Should we develop licences that are crystal clear around whether you are permitted to use this codebase for the purposes of training models?

(I vote 'yes')
Putin isn't even in the same league as Mussolini and Hitler, and anyone who says otherwise is either ignorant or lying.

Back when I worked for $MEGACORP, we wanted to mount some monitors to the wall in the infosec space for Big Cool Dashboards. The quoted price from the union contractors that had a lock on all HQ building modifications was frightfully high (five figures to just mount some TVs). They spec'd asbestos inspectors for a space that had been certified asbestos-free, had safety observers that had to stand around and be sure the 'job site' was safe, etc.

We went and just bought rolling stands instead. We thought about sneaking the Best Buy techs in but decided we liked our jobs too much to do that. When they found out we just bought stands instead of having the screens mounted they tried to throw a hissy fit but were unsuccessful (we didn't actually break any rules).

This same job required me to get an exemption from two unions because the devices I worked with communicated with RF energy (radio union) and I needed a screwdriver to get inside of them (IBEW). Sigh. It didn't matter than the wire techs down the hall from me didn't know JTAG from JPEG — I couldn't risk getting a grievance because someone thought I, a mere unrepresented member of "management" (as everyone who wasn't union-represented was called), was takin' their jerbs.

Yeah, guilty as charged, but in my defense, I change phones often but my replaced phones go to different family members, who are happy with past generation flagships. My previous two phones are being used and all the previous ones had long lives, it's not like I just bin them.

If they sold the 512 7 Pro in Europe I might buy it and offer the 6 Pro to my mother-in-law who has a 5 or so year-old phone now (or my mother with her 4-year-old one, or maybe to my wife, and she in turn to her mother), but I don't think I will be going through the Australian workaround and the associated customs and warranty risks for that.
I had to have a look at the date of the article when I saw that the price of the thing is 200000 FF.

> The article however does give a quote from a Florida senator which says “Some of the individuals did check with (supervisors of elections) and believed they could register,” and that's a bit more disturbing. I think anyone who contacts election officials to make sure they can vote would have every reason to expect that they can if that's what they are told, but it's hard to say what impact that might have without more information.

For sure... this reeks of incompetence by these bureaucrats and they too ought to be reprimanded.

I think it’s currently pretty hard for these people to stay in the US after getting their phds. I think immigration rates still haven’t recovered to pre-pandemic levels. I think immigration is just not popular with the American voters at the moment.

But it seems obviously bad if someone goes from China to the US for a phd in some critical field and wants to stay in the US (either for better opportunities or for the relationships they have developed or because they like living in a free country) but is forced to return to China by the US immigration system. Maybe phd students in stem in the US also bias foreign because there are just more non-Americans than Americans in the world or because American citizenship allows natives access to better opportunities (eg getting paid a lot more money in tech or just having a job where you get some level of support from your superiors).
