The official stance of Polish state TV and the leading politician is that Germany is Poland's biggest enemy. It's partly empty rhetoric aimed at the older population (the main electorate of the currently ruling right-wing party) and partly the perception that bigger EU countries try to bully everyone else (even France got upset over the recent public help issue).

The core of the issue in this particular case is that the ruling party tried to completely take over Polish courts in ways that were illegal both according to Polish and European law. The EU justly said they won't send the Next Generation EU money until Poland fixes this. The Polish Prime minister would agree to this, but the minister of justice said "over my dead body" - and without him the ruling party will not be able to have a majority rule. So the Polish ruling party accuses the EU, and the EU accuses them. Interesting to see how it plays out. In the meantime Poland is losing millions of euros because of one guy's big ego.

For all I know Sapling is fantastic and will be developed for years to come. But personally I can't help but feel "once burnt, twice shy" (or in this case, twice burnt once shy). I'd be happy to be wrong here because ergonomics of Git are really frustrating in many places.

Ask HN: A SaaS template for new products? Cut dev time to 1 week?
I have lots of ideas and I want to try them out. Some of the are rather small and some are big, but they all need:
1. Auth
2. Subscription
3. Dashboard

Is there an easy way to basically scaffold an entire SaaS project to cut development time to 1 week and focus only on building the product, not all the other stuff?

Using Auth0 and Stripe and what not does cut dev time but still requires a lot of work for a new project.

Any ideas?
I think the relative peak was the micro's black and silver (either way) design, personally.
What if you charged someone to build and install the same system in their house? You'd probably charge a lot more than $100, and that's what the real cost would be for most people.

> As soon as you need reliable outcomes, such as certainty whether an erroneous state can arise in a program, whether a proof for a mathematical conjecture exists, or whether a counterexample exists, exhaustive search is often necessary.

Checking proofs is easier than finding proofs.

> The question then soon becomes: How can we best delegate this search to a computer, in such a way that we can focus on a clear description of the relations that hold between the concepts we are reasoning about? Which symbolic languages let us best describe the situation so that we can reliably reason about it?

These questions are largely answered. Or, at least, the methodology for investigating these types of questions is well-developed.

I think the more interesting question is co-design. What do languages and logics look like when they are designed for incorporation into new-fangled AI systems (perhaps also with a human), instead of for purely manual use?

I disagree. The information at the time was the vaccine was massively impactful at reducing spread. They got that part wrong, but the decision to require vaccination was rational IMO.

The decision didn't have a great result because the assumptions didn't hold. Good process, bad outcome.

(Not to mention that if everyone had actually just gotten the shot, we might have stalled the viral evolution into the delta + subsequent variants. My understanding is those mutations reduced vaccine transmission efficacy. If people hadn't turned public health into politics, we could have possibly avoided the endemic nature of the virus, which I think we can all agree would have been a far superior outcome versus where we are today.)

If horses traveled at car speeds, I doubt death counts would be any lower, and you'd have to figure in the number of horse deaths too.

Sorry to be contrary but... Is that actually true in this case? It seems to me that the fraud was very very simple no? The CEO "lent" money from this business (which was really client money) to another business he controlled. That's not exactly complex or novel. I don't even think there was deception within the company was there, he just told people to do it and they did. It isn't like he played a careful, decade long shell game like Enron. This was the digital equivalent of someone putting their hand in the till...
Who are you referring to? Are bitcoin buyers required to buy as much as they ever want at one time, and never sell? Or can they buy at lower prices, and sell at higher prices from the point you referenced?

I used a Samsung tablet with a lightweight Bluetooth keyboard as my primary note-taking tool through college a decade ago. It worked great with Evernote at the time, allowing me to search for keywords and connections between topics, and to lighten the load I had to carry (which, as I was running between classes and two jobs from 7am-9pm each day, was critical for me). Maybe I didn’t need it, but it made my life much easier. This was during a time when carrying a tablet/laptop around labeled you a huge nerd.

These days I work from home and can keep everything in my desk, but I still use Apple Notes for learning things because it’s easy to switch between my phone, iPad and laptop to work on topics in whatever spare time I have, wherever I am. I get some good ideas in the line for grocery checkout haha

The Aftermath of FTX’s Downfall

The sudden collapse of the cryptocurrency exchange has left the crypto industry stunned.
Crackdown Begins: Regulators are moving to freeze parts of FTX’s business, while other divisions file for insolvency or prepare to halt operations. Here’s what’s next for the company. https://www.nytimes.com/2022/11/11/business/dealbook/ftx-sbf...

Investors Under Scrutiny: Venture capital firms and investment funds showered nearly $2 billion on FTX with few strings attached. Now, they are facing questions, too. https://www.nytimes.com/2022/11/11/technology/ftx-investors-...

Sports Sponsorships: From the naming rights for an N.B.A. arena to patches on M.L.B. umpires’ uniforms, FTX’s collapse puts sponsorship deals worth hundreds of millions of dollars in doubt. https://www.nytimes.com/2022/11/10/business/ftx-sports-spons...
He-Man wasn't any more targeted at boys than Transformers was.
She-Ra was the most overtly gendered (being a "girl version" of an existing show) but it wasn't any more targeted at girls than My Little Pony was. Many cartoons in the 80s were just ads selling toys that were intended to be sold in either the blue aisle or the pink aisle.

Growing up I watched both He-man and She-Ra, in fact I thought She-Ra was the better show since it had a somewhat darker tone than He-Man did, but I didn't know any boys who owned She-Ra toys.

Jem and the Holograms was supposed to sell fashion dolls sold in the pink aisle (competing with Barbie), but the show itself was specifically written with lots of action to keep boys interested so they wouldn't change the channel and prevent their sisters from watching.

Something like Wise works most of the time but if you have a cousin in Papau New Guinea in the jungle with a cellphone and no bank account IDK how the hell you would send them large value in under an hour without losing your shirt. Maybe there is something and if so I'm interested in what it is (know someone else there with lots of money who really trusts you?).

In any case ACH can be clawed back and it is my understanding in some exceptional circumstance a wire can too. The point never was crypto is always superior, it may be conventional is better 99.9% of the time but that 0.1% means a use case remains.

it would be nice if the russian citizenry removed putin and removed all their troops from Ukraine, along with paying reparations. I don't think that's going to happen, though. Look at the convoluted path for the Soviet Union becoming Russia in the first place- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dissolution_of_the_Soviet_Unio... and contrast to the power structure and revenue structure that Putin has assembled.

Personally I've used TabCenter Redux and now Tab Center Reborn, tabs on side allow to see titles no matter how many tabs we have open, easy scrolling and grouping while not waste vertical screen space, witch is rare on modern 19:9+ screens (while we do not need much space on sides, since most screens are big enough)...
The path to de-escalation is easy. All troops leave Ukraine's territory and all attacks cease.
In university, I didn't use pen and paper: I took textual notes in Mathematica or Rstudio (depending on the class) and drew graphs on the screen, using the Wacom mode of my thinkpad. Sometimes I just used xournal. I type faster than I write, and I had direct shortcuts for all the greek letters for the formulas (α β γ etc)

Separately, I had a Sony MP3 record and a digital camera to take high res pictures of the graphs drawn (I could have used Onenote to synchronize but it seemed overkill)

That was extremely helpful: during the class, I could do some plots or run some experiments to clarify a concept and ask questions if something didn't make sense to me.

And right after the class, I would gather the different parts to make my own notes and interpretations of the material presented.

It was around 2017, and half the people were using similar setups. I mostly saw laptops, maybe because iPads with pens didn't exist yet. If they had, I would have certainly tried one!
Ha! Certainly was worth it.

The western people should really lean a chapter from China. Chinese took it a great humiliation for losing the Opium Wars and for being "invaded" (by their own words) by multiple countries in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Yet, the Chinese didn't seek ridiculous terms like "decolonization of science". Instead, their moto is know your shame and you will have courage. So, their education systems kept telling students that Qing lost to the modern civilization and therefore they should learn from it. They kept telling students that Chinese was left behind in the last century because they fell behind on science and political systems. They paid great respect to modern science. They made it clear that there was no "Chinese medicine" versus "Wester medicine"[1]. There is only modern medicine and ancient medicine. Famous scientists are household names because they show up in textbooks, in popular science books, in bed stories, and in state-owned media. Nobel laureates are treated like demi-gods in China.

Compared to Chinese, some people in the western worlds really do not know how to respect the great civilization pioneered by the west.

It doesn't matter if the "most" statement is correct. Some investors never move their coins off the exchange; therefore, the inference that 49.4% of investors have made money because you can see that in recorded transactions is based on a faulty premise. Unless you're arguing that only a negligible number of exchange users do this, which seems implausible and would also assume facts not in evidence.

> Stage + Unstaged is my working area, and the two live together quite nicely to me personally. I could live without it, definitely.. but i'm not sure i'd want to.

You can just use the tip as your staging. Use interactive amending to move changes from the working copy to the commit, and when you want to "commit", finish up the message.

hg actually has an "unamend" command (part of the "uncommit" standard extension) which... reverts the last amend. Rather than having to remember how to contort reset into the right shape to move changes back out of staging without destroying everything.

I would really encourage you to push forward with OfficeLife. I believe the HR space is primed and ready for a decent open source offering.

As a doctor, the proliferation of apple (and other) watch ECGs has done nothing positive but lead to a massive proliferation of severe health anxiety. Go take a look at /r/askdocs for anyone curious - dozens of apple and Samsung ECG questions, people sure they’re about to die. They have nothing.

I remain entirely unconvinced that putting ‘more’ health information at increased temporal frequency to consumers leads to any health benefit, and instead causes significant health anxiety and drain on health resources with false and misleading presentations for bad signals.
The process for working with user data today at Facebook is super rigorous. Accessing anything requires requesting permissions which are auto expired. Any analysis build on user data is auto deleted without 24 hours etc.

Being a good manager doesn't give you license to be an asshole, at least not to this raging degree.

You can use `sl fold --exact` to combine arbitrary commits without including the current one. (To be honest, I just always used `sl histedit`.)

On the Sound Speed in Neutron Stars
Question: What is inside a super massive black hole?

Answer: Super massive black holes (SMBH) are black holes with masses of millions to billions of solar masses. They are found at the center of most galaxies. The Milky Way's SMBH is called Sagittarius A* (Sgr A). The SMBH at the center of the Andromeda Galaxy is called M31. The SMBH at the center of the M87 galaxy is called M87*.

Seems like someone half assed the content filtering... Hopefully they will work it out, but the answer wasn't really that accurate. It only told me what a SMBH was and didn't really understand the question....
That's shameless cherrypicking) We can also say that S&P only returned 51% since the start of this century, adjusted for inflation.

I use scientific language models professionally. I skimmed the paper and was immediately disappointed.

- They benchmarked against general models like GPT-3 but not well-established specific models that have been trained for specific tasks like SPECTER[0] or SciBert[1]. Specter outperformed GPT-3 on tasks like citation prediction two years ago. Nobody seriously uses general LLMs on science tasks, so nobody who actually wants to use this cares about your benchmarks. I want to see task-specific models compared to your general model, otherwise whats going to happen is I either need to run my own benchmarks or, much more likely, I shelve your paper and never read it again. If you underperform some that's fine! If you don't compare to science-specific models all you're claiming is that training on science data gives better science results... thats not exactly an impressive finding. Fine-tuning is a separate thing, I get it, but pleeeeeease just give the people what they want.

- Not released on huggingface. No clue why not. On the back-end this appears to be based on OPT and huggingface compatible, so I'm really confused.

- Flashy website. Combine 1&2 with a well designed website talking about how great you are and most of my warning lights got set off. Not a fan.

@authors, if you're lurking, please release more relevant benchmarks for citation prediction etc. Thanks.
