Given that conceding Crimea would make the entire war eerily similar to the Winter war, my prediction for 2030 would be that either Germany or China attacks the West in all out war, and we join forces with Russia to fight them (/s)

Conceding territory isn't great if your main goal is to dissuade Russia, but nobody ever claimed that that was Musks goal. His purported goal is reducing the risk of human extinction, even from some less likely risks. It's a different risk assessment that leads to different priorities.

> and your suggestion

I didn't suggest it, I merely tried to show that Musk's suggestion is completely in line with "saving humanity" and completely in character.
I don't think it's a secret that Musk has been cosying up to the Trump right for a while now.

It's only a nasty comment if you find those individuals deplorable, and Musk clearly doesn't.
Thanks :) I just wanted to get down to some concrete examples.
AM Stereo with a wide-IF receiver will pass 13khz of audio, it sounds quite good when it's clean. As does regular AM, on a vintage radio with a wife IF, it can sound great.

>I have a special case, which is that I mostly ssh into my websites hosted by digital ocean.

This sounds like what I do, except I mosh from a MacBook into a VM on my own server, which in turn runs tmux with mosh sessions to other machines, physical (including the same MacBook) and virtual. They are all local, but there is nothing preventing the sessions from being hosted somewhere else.

>I usually have several terminal sessions (+3), some local terminal sessions and firefox

Do you run Firefox remotely? I run Chrome and Firefox on the MacBook I use to mosh into the first aforementioned machine above. I read mail on one of the terminal sessions with VM on emacs; it passes via SSH URLs from messages to the local browser. Overall, I am very, very satisfied with my setup.
The tweet by @Anthony was deleted within a few minutes of me responding (could be coincidental of course) [1]

The disturbing part is how the retweet chain between the reporters on Twitter changed the story: The original Tweet was "Entire team of data engineers let go." That became "Twitter data engineering team..." That became "Twitter's entire data engineering team let go"

Needless to say "Entire team of data engineers" is much smaller in scope than "Twitter's entire data engineering team." The WSJ reporter who posted this tweet made an egregious error (even before the hoax was revealed).

Decisions in Software Engineering
If anything I'd say it's the opposite. A random person can get away with cons and scams for a long time. Whenever they get caught, they can just set up shop somewhere else. They can change their name (or simply lie to others about their name). Famous people can't do that. If you're famous, you can commit one scam before your reputation is ruined. Even if the story manages to avoid the news, people talk and word spreads. The incentives are such that a purely selfish billionaire sociopath is better off being honest.

Also, being extremely rich makes you a target for ambitious or activist prosecutors. Everything everywhere is securities fraud.[1][2] Whether you're hung out to dry or not is determined by how much your behavior has annoyed people in certain departments of the US government, or how much you've annoyed their friends.

What I don't understand is the lawsuit from Twitter. There's an high risk that this is going to damage the company in the long run, so why did the company decided to force him to finish the deal? Sounds a bit kinda suicidal
Journalists are supposed to have more credibility than your friend's gossip though...

While retracting and/or correcting the articles is a step towards journalistic integrity, it should be very troubling these articles were published in the first place.

After all, how many people bother to go back and review past articles just on the off chance some piece of information was corrected? None...
>Tesla’s margins are much higher

But they're not.

On a trailing four quarter basis; BMW has more revenue than Tesla ($135bn vs $67bn), better operating margin than Tesla (18.6% vs 16.2%) and therefore also higher earnings ($25bn vs $11bn).

... and Tesla does have debt; in fact, it just for the first time got upgraded from junk to investment grade this month.
Obviously not or he wouldn't have gone so far in the first place.
100% agree that Twitter is only really important because it's where all the people with voices on other platforms (Youtube, journalists, traditional celebrities, politicians, etc.) spend their time. This gives the platform cultural relevance because these talking heads endlessly feedback on each other, but there aren't enough talking heads or enough of their followers to scale to the size of Facebook.
To me it seems like at least a trillion-dollar problem. (One percent of a year's world GDP.) Auto makers are under-investing, or they don't see enough profit in it.
I've used it for Stable Diffusion on my M1 mbp, works with no problem. I am not a AI/ML person so my experience with M1 PyTorch is limited to just using SD.
As per your second link:

> This means if you visited a website and it loaded the resource:

> and you then visited a second website, and it also included the same resource, then the resource would be loaded from the shared cache rather than being downloaded from the internet a second time. Cookies set by these resources would also be shared.

The privacy problem is not a result of the shared dependency, it's a result of the shared cookies.

Yes, if you share the execution space between multiple programs running the same lib, there's a privacy concern.

No shit - don't fucking do that.
Compiling eigen uses avx512 just fine. I don't think it is quite the discriminator it once was. However, I amp happy they made it open and it would be great of oneAPI became a real alternative to cuda for more tasks. I tried getting it to work with flux.jl a while back and ran into some difficulty.

> High def video

Twitter's video serving is embarrassingly woefully bad. Like really, really bad. So much so that Twitter videos buffering is a meme. This should be a core focus.

> They need to re-free up the API

Nobody cares about that. I mean a few developers do but 99.9% of users don't. Nor do they care about the consequences. Time and time again we've seen a growing platform embrace developers until they're large enough not to want to deal with it anymore. This is Lucy and the football at this point. When will we learn?

> They need to do this for goodwill at the very least.

Again, nobody cares about this issue, just like nobody cares about "free speech". They care about not being silenced for their particular positions. Elon's Twitter will reflect this and Elon is very much a conservative (in the US sense).

It's why you only ever hear about "free speech" when it comes to hate speech and never, say, to Palestinians getting silenced on Twitter [1].

Who are the other shareholders? I thought the entire point of the purchase is that he bought out all the shareholders.
As a math teacher, I try to instill a similar idea in my students, and am glad to hear that the idea is useful in a broader range of situations!

In overstated form, my version of the idea is: “never use ‘it’”—because a student just learning mathematical language will have many different ‘it’s in mind, or, even worse, no clear idea of what ‘it’ is. (For example, I'll often see an application of the derivative summarized as “since it is negative, it is decreasing”, which is correct only if you change ‘it’s midstream—but students often don’t realize that they are, or should be, doing so.)
Sometimes I think I'm good at programming, then I find something like this and I'm put back in my place.
I think it’s about context. I’m of the persuasion that it should not exist within mainstream society. It should be sent to the margins and not integrated into normal life. We shouldn’t have strip clubs or brothels in the town square for example. Out to the borders where it’s there if you need it but it isn’t casual.
But I absolutely don't want Twitter to decide which organisations are like the NAACP and which are like the Klan. This is regardless of who runs Twitter.
I don't see why this wouldn't already be legally binding. He was elected, but he accepted the mandate which is described by this document.

This is giving me serious pricewatch.com vibes. RIP.

For the youngsters out there: In the late 90's and early 00's, pricewatch was similar to this, except multi-vendor and supported searches for a wide array of components, e.g. CPU, Mobo, RAM. Ended up being a major driver in enabling Newegg to quickly grow so big and dominate; back then, Newegg consistently had the very best prices on the most in-demand chips like AMD Thunderbirds.

p.s. Do some HDDs really only come with a 3 month warranty?

Some of these are sold as "Enterprise" grade drives. Does this site index used disks, or how is this possible?

Honestly it troubles me that anyone believes 'journalists' from any of the major corporations have _any_ credibility, even going back to the 1990s with censorship of stories have been rife within the corporate 'journalism' industry. There are very few journalists that deserve real credibility.
I got a permanent ban for quoting a video which contained "when do start killing white people" and said that this was bad. Banned for inciting violence, upheld on appeal and told it would not be looked at again. Twitter's current moderation policy is extremist ideological garbage.
Not even remotely. I didn't agree or disagree with your statement on Twitter allowing all legal posts. I expressly chose not to.

What I'm asking you is if you think that those forums should also be required to say "Legal (Y/N)?" and if not, why not?
This is probably his Brexit moment...

I didn't know that. That sucks. Unfortunately it is an underreported issue because of the stigma.

> he was objectively right about Russia

The media presented it like he was a genius stating the obvious in the middle of his isolationist speech. It was an obvious talking point. He certainly did a lot to cozy up to Russia, and more so to Saudi Arabia.
If you use miniforge (https://github.com/conda-forge/miniforge) you can just 'pip install torch' and it works.

It's a legitimate point, but the courts decide, not the executive.
Hard to say with how vague that is, can you give concrete examples of these things that Twitter progressives deem questionable opinions?
Well he clearly wanted to own Twitter. He also clearly regretted the price that he was paying. I don't think the second point negates the first.
I'm a little confused why employees of a public company like Tesla are being used to work on a project for a private holding. Unless it was Tesla that acquired Twitter and I misunderstood?
As rational and high minded as folks on hacker news like to position themselves, everyone here is just as susceptible to being drawn in towards drama involving their own set of celebrities and companies.
So the far left wants to control twitter because there are people that want to leave twitter if musk runs it, and these people must be from the far left because...
I mean, we don't know. We literally don't know where or how consciousness exists. We just know that we have it, and we try to extrapolate backwards.

Is it a product of the prefrontal cortex? Arguably. Is it the product of the mammalian mind? Seems plausible. The product of a small-but-thresholded nervous system? I think many would agree here. Is it the product of any nervous system? Doubtful, but maybe. Is it the product of any electrical system? Who knows, it's possible. Is it an innate part of matter? I mean...

Are insects conscious? I'm skeptical. Are mussels and/or oysters conscious? I'm very skeptical. Are plants conscious? I'm extremely skeptical.
> The privacy problem is not a result of the shared dependency, it's a result of the shared cookies.

No, it's not the result of the shared cookies. You just ignored all of the timing attacks and fingerprinting which a shared cache allows, as those articles discuss.

The cookie thing is honestly completely irrelevant to the topic of privacy, if you understand how the shared cache used to work. If you loaded the same library from separate CDNs on different websites, the shared cache didn't come into play at all. The library was loaded twice anyways. There was no chance for cookies from different CDNs to accidentally cross the streams. Browsers weren't attempting to heuristically determine if you were trying to load the same asset from different hosts.

The shared cache only came into play if you loaded the same asset from the same third-party CDN on multiple websites. The host serving an asset is the one responsible for setting the cookies, and sharing the cookies is helpful in that case, since the same CDN is the host serving the asset to the browser for both websites. These aren't cookies controlled by separate websites, they're cookies supplied by the CDN, and they should be the same for both requests anyways, outside of maybe some remote possibility of a theoretical attack involving a malicious CDN intentionally setting some weird request-dependent cookies, but I can't see how that would even do anything harmful anyways. So, the cookies get shared because the browser is serving a cached response for the same asset from the same host to both sites, which makes sense.

So, cookies aren't the problem here, and they're not the reason the shared cache was partitioned. If you want browsers to undo that in any form, you would have to solve the actual privacy problems here.

TFA says the changes are temporary, or at least reversible:

Geo blocking is streaming and content companies living in the past. They are creating this issue them selves but are too stupid or old to stop selling exclusive rights to TV and streaming services in other countries. At the same time these foreign companies need to stop wasting money on something that will eventually go away.

How stupid is it for HBO to sell exclusive rights in part of Europe for their shows to Sky streaming when HBO can deliver this content directly. This isn't 90, people are hardly watching cable TV.

This whole thing reminds me of blockbuster that didn't want to lose that small percentage of late fees in order to switch to a Netflix type model. Just no competing system at the moment.

I guess it's easier to sell a shit show to a single entity then trying to convince your subscribers to watch it.
Powerline Adapters – the security threat (2020)
The whole "advertisers don't want their ads appearing next to xyz" has always felt contrived to me, like, I can use Gmail to receive all sorts of wrongthink and I'll still see ads on it, similarly Twitter should be a neutral tool not a magazine. It's up to the users what they see.

You'd need a lot of market share and confidence as Musk to actually say "this is silly" but it is silly nonetheless. The big players started down the road of "ok we'll ban the worst stuff" and once they blinked it's been "but what about" all the way down.
OMG: And what assets back up Bitcoin? Dogecoin? XXXCoin. In Tether we trust:) Those are just the stupid obvious bots. Linkedin recently purged half the accounts that had people claiming to work for Apple and AWS. It is far from as easy as you think. It cost pennies per fake account creation. As they say in the QANON universe - do your research.
Drug? Or poison?
There’s many variations of this.

News outlets and fans tweeting sports results. Public event celebration (new year, xmas, father day etc.). The vast majority of these tweets could be managed by bots and we wouldn’t know the difference.

I actually follow many bots on twitter knowingly, but they could be people in disguise I wouldn’t care.

In my opinion, the content of a tweet (is it spam ? is it abusing the platform ?) matters way more than wether it’s a bot or a human doing the spamming/abuse.

Whenever I go on vacation overseas Twitter shows me ads in a language I cannot understand. This is one of many clearly-identifiable problems that are not rocket science to fix. And Elon Musk has a reputation for fixing problems.

When Twitter shares are publicly traded again in a few years, Musk's purchase price of $44 billion will look like a bargain.

My prediction: In 5 years Twitter's market cap will exceed $150 billion.
Sure, and yet it is interesting how the satire would be funnier with the visitor pattern than with an obscure pattern nobody uses.
Creating a not-Java clone of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YaCy makes sense, maybe?

Another feature I think could be important is integrating https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Crawl datasets.
Probably because you seemed to have partisan worms in your brain. Twitter HAS been burdened by the "extreme right" abusing its platform. Its the entirety of the debate around what should be moderated on twitter. Insisting that this can't be true because "the left" hasn't had an exodus doesn't seem to make sense to me.
I think this was mostly bluster, sure hell have to lay off a lot of people to change the company direction but his pitch to investors said the company would grow to like 12000 people.
I honestly can't think of a worse example of fortitude than Elon Musk's handling of the Twitter deal, which he entered capriciously, repeatedly violated terms he agreed to, ultimately reneged on the deal, and had to be forced by a court to uphold.
Watch the video of the bumblebee rolling a ball, it is incredibly cute.
The solution is clear:

Fork TCC to use DynASM, and layout code in a way that's amenable to tracing.

Extend LuaJIT to trace the TCC output, teach it to do this across the FFI, implement the hyperblock scheduler and quad-color GC.

Make a FreeBSD distribution which uses a one-sector Forth to bootstrap the TCCJIT, which compiles the source code directly into memory, and uses the GC for process allocation and cleanup. The JIT makes the happy path fast, until or unless it changes.

Binaries on disk being no longer a useful starting point, they can just be frozen process images. If they break, start again from source code, otherwise, incrementally compile changes into the image while it's in memory. Quitting is just writing it to SSD cache.

I hadn’t heard of NixOS. Super cool
Musk runs his existing employees very hard. Most tech companies don’t. There maybe room to squeeze out more juice per employee. Surely this will push some out, but new people will come in and replace them.
What a ridiculous comparison. Let's stick to arguing in good faith, shall we?
This really doesn't seem like a good idea.

I've seen exactly this situation before and it went to hell pretty quickly. The new engineers genuinely have no idea what they have on their hands until something goes snap. And it will go snap.
This is the reason: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democratic_backsliding

Trump is an autocrat with goals to become a monarch. He proactively eroded democracy during his term, and continues to attempt to.
Well , there’s the Cybertruck…
Why is the public/private distinction relevant? The situation is equivalent to Musk hiring some engineers to work at Twitter that used to work at Tesla. They're no longer paid by Tesla, they're now paid by Twitter. Seems perfectly fine but this tweet and its associated account is not actually a reliable source of information, the tweet is basically fake news and is designed to maximize engagement.
Isn't this just a long way to saying you think this is the right decision, but doesn't change the fact that it was arbitrary? Except I'm not even sure the decision actually happened. There still aren't any recent posts from them. You might need to wait a bit to know
Hate anywhere has real world impact.

There’s a lot of hate in the history books, 99% of it predating the internet.

Are those that engage in hate online more or less likely to act on it than those who engage in person? Are these interactions compelling them to use their voice off-line?
Freedom of speech is a principle. The US 1st Amendment is one specific implementation of that principle, but generally people asking for free speech are making a moral argument, not a legal one.
