I'm not sure. I challenge you to put a windows 7 or 10 boot disk into a brand new PC and see if you don't encounter any issues in the installation. I definitely recall running into problems. One of the big ones was often no working wifi/ethernet drivers, so you couldn't even install new drivers.
I am curious about what your arguments are, but you refuse to name them.

Sending me the definition of propaganda seems to indicate you think I don't know what propaganda is, I find this assumption very audacious on HN.
What I do is to not install apps which don't work with disabled Location (yes, there are stuypid apps like that not allowing to select location manually, even better are those which don't allow selecting location without gapps in phone), simple as that.

I have no problem manually enter my location once in a few months (or more likely once and for good for home address and 1-2x per year for vacation location).
Fix glare. Headlamp technology has driven to a point that harms other drivers. It's dangerous. I don't drive at night now if I can avoid it, because of night vision issues which high strength blue light headlamps exacerbate.
In other words, it's just another AI gimmick that randomly cuts and pastes human generated content that seems to fit the context, without any regards to making sense in a cohesive political framework:

Increasingly I worry that people are not engaged enough to actually think about these points. Instead they hear "child abuse" and their brain immediately jumps to enforcement mode. Based on that, we should not point out that this is bs (which it is). We should point out that it will give police access to kids personal pics, or point out it will be used for tax enforcement.

I hope I am being too cynical...

Internet runs just fine, I go swimming every other day to keep fit, supermarkets full of food. Metro runs, I think a few stations are still closed, though, although that could have been so before the war; I wouldn't know. Curfew at 11pm is the main difference. There's a bit of a question now about electricity, because Putin is trying to destroy the electricity supply, but you just gotta roll with these things.

I myself understand that and would still want to come, but I don't want to do it at the expense of causing more stress to my family over there. If I insisted on coming to see them now even after my uncle asked me not to, it would be selfish. My grandfather has already been through a ton of stress and illness; I don't want to stress him out about his grandchild possibly getting hurt visiting him on top of everything else. I plan to bring the idea up a bit later, and in the meantime I donate so those would-be living costs should go to the country anyway.

>People do not use Linux when they expect to have better than even odds of the machine booting.

I think it's the opposite. People frequently run a Linux live boot, to rescue a failing PC, Linux or not. If you google "live boot" or "rescue usb", most of the results are Linux, or are using Linux under the hood.
The name of the "uncertainty" principle is pretty stupid and it has nothing to do with its meaning.

The so-called "uncertainty" is just a trivial property of the Fourier transform. It is the same property which requires a great frequency bandwidth for transmitting a pulse that is short in time.

The fact that certain quantities that appear in quantum mechanics are related by Fourier transforms is something that is completely orthogonal to the interpretation of the wave function amplitudes as probabilities of intrinsically random phenomena or as interaction efficiencies caused by real angles of rotation of the interacting particles/waves, which are unknown due to unknown initial conditions.

> Courts have not held that this is illegal.

Laws are just codified version of ethics. Just because it's not codified in law, it doesn't mean it's ethically correct, and I hold ethics over laws. Some people call this conscience, others call this honor.

Just because it's not deemed illegal, it's not deemed ethical. These are different things. The world has worked under honor and ethical codes for a very long time, and still works under these unwritten laws in a lot of areas.

Science, software and other frontiers value ethics and principles a great deal. Some niches like AI largely ignore these, and I find this disturbing.

However, some people prefer to play the game with the written rules only, and as I said, I'm investing in popcorn futures to see what's gonna happen to them.

I might tank and go bankrupt of course, but I will sleep better at night for sure, and this is more important for me at the end.

I'm passionate about computers, yes. This is also my job, yes, but I'm not the person who'll do reckless things just because an incomplete code of written ethics doesn't prevent me to do it.

I'd rather not do anything to anyone which I don't want to receive. IOW, I sow only the seeds which I want to reap.
The two authors I have heard of doing this are Joan Didion (who typed out entire Hemingway novels) and Hunter S Thompson (who did the same, using both Hemingway and F Scott Fitzgerald as models). I always wondered if they arrived at this seemingly not very efficiient method independently, or if there was some antecedent. Do you know of any others?

My take on this is that intelligence is like strength or other physical qualities. If you are in a hyper competitive area, you need good genes. But not everything is competitive.

Yes, there are absolutely limits on your physical development that you are born with. You won't run 100m under 10s if you're a woman, and you're much more likely if you have recent roots in certain countries. You won't get to play professional basketball unless you're quite a lot taller than average. If you're going to win Mr Olympia, you need to possess the kind of body that can be turned into a hunk of muscle.

But you can do better than most people at almost everything by practicing. You can cut your 100m time just by losing the gut. You can practice throwing the ball in the hoop by yourself. You can lift weights and you'll get more muscular.

Intelligence is no different. If you're going to be a research mathematician, it's going to be incredibly tough competing with the smartest kids in your generation. But if you just want to appreciate quantum physics or complex numbers, it's actually quite low hanging fruit that you will figure out if you want to. Most people do not figure out complex numbers despite it being taught at every high school.

The thing with intelligence, and I suppose we mean the mathematical kind, is it's invisible until you interact with people. If you're very weak or fat there's reasons to do something about it. If you just don't know how vector calculus works, chances are you won't get outed.

Our culture in the West also has a static view of intelligence, the opposite of Dweck's growth mindset, which really harms everyone who should be encouraged to practice getting smarter. The loss of not stopping people without world class brains from pursuing math professorships is greatly outweighed by the loss of everyday people not improving strengthening their thinking skills.

None of the replies on the thread seem sufficiently cynical.

Briefly and at a high level, I suspect it's ALL farce, on both "sides", and intended to keep everyone frantically over-stimulated while the Administrative State Superiors (ASS) do the actual work of replacing any Rule of Law to which one might point with a quasi-aristocrASSy.

"there are ways of getting revenue without being obnoxious or deceptive"

If you're including only allowing a certain number of free articles a month, or only showing the first few paragraphs before requesting payment to read the rest, I'm not sure what alternatives you'd think would be non-obnoxious (and what's the deception exactly?).
My concern is that there's still no good way to make easy essentially anonymous micropayments to sites with content that you want to read - if there were I doubt there'd really be much issue with just having a simple button to confirm that you're happy to pay a small fee (say, 50c) to read the rest of the article.
And if the rest of the article turns out to be crap, you just avoid that site.
But 95% of the time I end up reading an archive.ph version of an article is not because I don't think it's worth paying money for, but because I'm expected to provide far more info than I think is relevant and then hand over credit card details in a way that likely will result in ongoing recurring charges.
I'd actually prefer it if there were simple mechanism for agreeing to have the cost of viewing pages from particular domains added to my monthly internet usage bill. Are there any ISPs that offer such a facility?

> self-replicating technological mechanisms undermine this hypothesis

The problem is observed reality contradicts this hypothesis, so far there are no observed techno-signatures. Some call this a paradox because they're very attracted to their hypothesis, but it's not a paradox if the explanation for not seeing anything is there being nothing to see. I expect there to be gnomes in my garden, but I don't see any gnomes in my garden. Is that a paradox? Maybe I'm just wrong about gnomes.

As for recon probes, maybe. But we wouldn't see them would we? If a recon probe is looking for threats to the civilization that created it, it wouldn't do to have the recon probe seen. Recon is about seeing while not being seen.

Disassembling other star systems? It's a neat idea, but there's no evidence for it. Maybe it's not such an obvious idea to the sort of civilization that might be capable of it and it only seems obvious to primitive apes who can't do it anyway. Or maybe there are no such capable civilizations in our neighborhood at all.

There are two ways screenwriters can make money directly from their writing.

Selling it to studios. (This website of already produced film scripts is not going to help with that)

And publishing and selling the script(This website and ones like it literally undercut that market and make it very difficult for any but the most successful writers to get any publishing money)

No thanks on the free “publicity”
People copy-paste garbage from the internet left and right. Maybe copilot will finally push companies to actually properly review the code their employees are pushing.
Power Thesaurus gives much better results imho. Careful Words includes a lot of results that are not synonyms at all, and just relate to the query in some way. So depends on what the user is after I guess.

I'm also not a fan of the results being sorted alphabetically, it would be more useful to have them ranked. The design and simplicity is nice though.
Found it difficult to understand, but is this like a way to reach a synthesis through a dialectic system?
Any code is proprietary by default. GNU GPL license lifts some restrictions, in excange of more code, but it doesnt work when license is broken. Look at cases about GPL violation.

Copiloot doesn't obey GPL license, so they need to obtain written permission and pay license fees to be able to use code in their product.
> C confers an understanding of pointers that will cause reference types in other languages to make a lot more sense

I'm not sure what you mean by this. I know what pointers are and I have not written C before. What understanding will C specifically give me which will help me understand reference types better?

> It'll also give you a good feel for what kinds of operations are costly and what kinds are not

Does this matter though? For most applications you don't need to understand what kind of operations are costly.

I am unusually curious so I'll probably learn about Assembly and low level operations out of curiosity at some point, but it's easy to imagine that I may not work on something where this would be useful knowledge or I would use this knowledge so rarely that the opportunity cost is not worth it.

For the vast majority of developers the opportunity cost for learning C seems quite high.
(Not OP) It's a line from Seinfeld (the TV show). Yes, this is not Reddit, but it's funny!
Interesting. Just switching to the tty doesn't fix things for me, though. I need to restart my whole graphical environment i.e. by restarting my display manager. So, it's about as convenient as just shutting down and powering back up.

It's unfortunate because my desktop eats up about 110W when idle, and approximately 0W when suspended. I also use some sketchy successor to "barrier" to share my mouse and keyboard with my work laptop, and that somehow keeps my monitors from shutting off if I happen to leave the mouse cursor on the laptop's screen. That's another 100W according to my UPS.

There are undoubtedly dozens of power plants that exist purely due to the overall number of software bugs that exist. They're talking about banning natural gas in favor of electrical heating here in California, and I live in a chillier climate, so I must be saving the Earth by leaving my desktop powered on most of the time out of convenience.
I was about to defend Jerry and say "Well, maybe someone added the suffix to shrink before him, but he made it a thing", but after looking at Google Ngram Viewer, then yes, he is way off.

Perhaps it is easier because Peyton Jones is a world class expert in Haskell and have 30 years experience refactoring it?

In my experience the ease of refactoring is more depending on the quality of the code you are refactoring than the language. That said, a strong type system helps avoiding stupid mistakes and Haskell have a very strong type system.
Chicken-and-egg problem. You would say the same about the data provider if there was no decent frontend for it.

> Don't contribute to any software where there's a risk the stewards will licence switch on you

If you contribute, you own copyright to your contribution and the software can't be relicensed without your approval (or removal/reimplementation of the parts you added).

The trick is to not grant the copyright assignment (ie. gift the maintainers your copyright).

As an example, here's what MongoDBs contributor agreement[0] says:

> By submitting a contribution, you assign to MongoDB all right, title and interest in any copright you have in the Contribution, and you wave any rifghts, including any moral rights, database rights, etc. that may affect our ownership of the copyright in the Contribution.

Other projects have similar language. If you contribute a project and sign something like that, you're not contributing to an open source project[1] - you're working for that corporation for free.

[1] With one exception: FSF also requires you to sign over the ownership and there's zero chance they'll turn corporate.
I agree the NHTSA is way too slow, but damn am I glad they're doing the work! I love that they're checking everything carefully and doing the research before approving new designs.
> There's no known issue with file formats being lost.

Cloud products silently change format all the time, and AFAIK the formats aren’t documented.

This list has KeyNote, for example, but claims it’s a XML based format. It hasn’t been for years. I also wouldn’t know how to read a Google sheets file without Google’s software (but maybe I didn’t search hard enough)

Older formats also are getting lost. For example, try opening a MacWrite file or a Word 1.0 file. MacWrite has the additional problem that part of the file (a 16-character etaoin shrdlu string used to compress the text) is in the resource fork. Preserving that is easy, but also easily forgotten.

And even if you can open a file today, today’s tools may do a better job converting to PDF or .mp4 than those we’ll have a hundred years from now. File converters that see little testing for rare formats.

It's not hard at all. It's a TV show.
That's all pure preference. If you have different preferences fine, but calling someone else's preferences nonsense doesn't make sense to me.
> I'm essentially a believer in You Aren't Gonna Need It — the principle that you should add features to your software — including generality and abstraction

YAGNI is not a principle. It is a contextual thumb rule. A codification of expert intuition. Exceptions to thumb rules are quite the norm.
Conflating thumb rules with principles is a sign of sloppy thinking.
Often engineers will misuse terminology thinking that it "doesn't matter". But it does. Think twice before claiming that something is a principle.

I think that's a useful analogy but I would say that it also implies limited DFT.

Von Neumann's plan was based on an incredibly short time scale. It wasn't long before the Soviet Union would develop its own weapons. The power asymmetry was only briefly held.

The thing is at a universal scale that would imply that the only threats we would honestly face are ones in close power level, and we can barely leave the earth at the minute. Another species with more advancement than us would be n-years more advanced than us even after we reach the level of what they were at on first encountering them (unless they decide to share technology which would be the opposite of DFT). Technological stagnation could cause a catch-up but then the theory has to assume technological stagnation is incredibly common for enough length of time to allow upstarts to catch up.

Now history has shown that more powerful nation's have conquered others. The 19th century is choked full with examples. That primarily was driven by competition by world powers seeking ever more resources for that competition. The universe is abundant in resources however, we have a lot to pick from once we are space faring species.
> If I hear something once, I understand it and remember it for life

Must be nice to have that kind of recall at the age of 100.

That being said, some people (John Von Neumann) seem to have had fantastic visual and textual recall.

A number of artists (Kim Jung Gi) and musicians (Mozart) seem to have developed remarkable visual and auditory memories.

And many children or fans who were nothing special in school can easily name every Pokémon, or tell you the stats and history of every member of a sports league, or recite the Star Wars saga line for line.

(And chickens, flightless though they may be, still possess the spatial brain of a migratory bird and can memorize (and peck) 300 random locations in their cage space - or on a piano - in order. They're also much better than rats (or humans?) at mazes.)
