It is not easy to understand, but I think Blackmun got it right. But the Court should have said more in establishing Constitutional privacy. It is undeniable that the right to privacy lives in the 1st, 3rd, 4th, 5th and 9th Amendments. What is easy to see is that Dobbs v. Jackson not only violates the due process clause of the 14th Amendment, it is also an extremely rare case of blatantly violating the 9th Amendment.

What is worse is the Court ignoring the fact that at least one of its members is illegitimate and Merrick Garland should have been seated. Barrett is not the only untrustworthy Justice that claimed to support women's rights to choose in order to be confirmed and then apparently couldn't break her word fast enough (we had such high hopes, but it turns out she's as ineffective and as big a fruitcake as Thomas). Alito and Roberts are the surprise. Just what are they thinking? I'd like to know how they think history is going to remember them for making such an impotent and (expectedly) short lived ruling.

The Court also ignores the current state of the country for the last 20 years at least that conservatives are distinctly in the minority and likely will remain so indefinitely. They should not make decisions that are so painfully obviously unlikely to stand. Row v. Wade stood for very nearly half a century. Dobbs v. Jackson will be lucky to make it a decade and a half before it is either overturned or made irrelevant by Congress, either by law or a new Amendment.

Ignoring details, abortion is clearly wrong, but there are some things the government can not do, and saying anything about what a woman can or can't do with their body is one of them. The government is prohibited from doing so by the Constitution as it stood in 1789. Roe v. Wade should not have been necessary, but we have too many intellectually dishonest tyrants that must be put into submission through case law.

It is ironic that there are individuals refusing COVID vaccination, claiming the government has gone too far and has no right to mandate vaccination, crying their rights are being violated, yet by and large these are the same individuals that would have their government tell women they have no choice. It is ironic, but it is also absurd that a vaccination mandate is an intolerable infringement on privacy and the 4th Amendment while at the same time insisting on killing children for the sake of unborn fetuses.

Pro Life and Pro Gun movements go together, and they are each internally logically inconsistent, each reveal cognitive dissonance, and when both ideologies are held by the same individual that individual is necessarily a hypocrite, a twice cognitively dissonant hypocrite as well as a bully and a coward. The Pro Life control freak bullies say: we tell you what you can or can't do; The scared Pro Gun cowards say: don't tell us what we can or can't do. Ridiculously, their sworn political enemies are those that are tolerant of others, including them.
Yes, I've also had this experience with React. I've created several imba apps with more complex UI than an average webstore and still rerender from root without even being close to spending 16ms on a full rerender. It does work. https://www.freecodecamp.org/news/the-virtual-dom-is-slow-me...
This is so so so so bad. It's always such a risky situation too. The instant-send shortcuts pop up right as I'm about to tap something else, causing me to send something directly to the wrong person with no intermediate step. What if I'm sharing something confidential or sensitive? Way too much room for error.
Agreed, engineering is about building stuff, not making discoveries about how the universe/existence works. Engineering often results in scientific discoveries but this is incidental.
Which will simply become controlled by China--if Russia can even hold onto the territory (this winter will be telling).

Russia is now effectively a pending Chinese vassal state caused by their coming rebuild. No one else is going to support them, and Russia has wiped out a big chunk of their workforce--both young labor as well as older brainpower. So, Russia will have to turn to China for both labor and brainpower at the cost of sovereignty.

The only thing that would prevent Russia from becoming a Chinese vassal is if they somehow wind up with a leader smart enough to pair up with India.
There was a study of traffic savvy animals (feline and canine mainly) some years ago who roam freely, gps trackers were attached and they would predominately cross roads only away from intersections, for the reason you cited.

Why watch four or so directions when you could only watch two?

I think the study had a name like the secret life of pets, except that's a recent cartoon movie, so may have been the hidden/secret lives of dogs. I searched but can't find it, though I'm relatively sure it was on US 60 Minutes at some point.
That would be the plan, yes. In the beginning we would focus on using funding to compensate the writers until we start to gain network effects in which then we should be receiving ad money which would be shared with the writers.
This is a great resource for finding out which ISO ranges various cameras are linear over:

To be clear, you're saying that it wouldn't change the decidability, correct?

> 0: Eg, the mass of the earth (in grams) is less than the mass of the moon (in grams) if you use 64-bit ints - but that's not true of their masses in kilograms or pounds.

Which is why you should have used 256-bit ints for computing that answer ;)
If it seems like enforcement went down it's because it's fallen off a cliff. Some examples:

* In April 2014 San Francisco police issued 11,612 tickets for traffic violations. In April 2022 they issued 338. No, that's not a typo. It went from 11,612 to 338. (Some links here: https://twitter.com/hknightsf/status/1537100042623848448)

* NYC police issued 5,039 tickets during the third week of July 2022; they issued 19,126 during the same period in 2019. Unlike San Francisco, they haven't totally stopped writing tickets, but the numbers are down drastically. (Some info: https://nypost.com/2020/08/09/nypd-traffic-tickets-plummet-b...)

* In Minneapolis police have been making 80% fewer traffic stops each week since the death of George Floyd. (Source: https://www.bloomberg.com/graphics/2020-minneapolis-police-s...)
Frankness without hostility is possible. It is a hallmark of really great leadership.

Sadly, it is also rare.
This is super cool. Any idea how Tris.com is able to get Google Search results?
If you want to compare companies by 'how big' they should be, you need to compare enterprise value, not market capitalisation.

If you think Toyota's stock (or bonds etc) will increase in market price relative to Tesla, for a fee financial markets will let you bet on that conviction and make money, if you are right.
Yep, the cost of keeping the model up to date would be negligible compared to the hosting bill.
This is your typical MacOS frenzy over solutions in search of a problem space that didn't need solving.
This is a stylistic choice. In my personal opinion, I agree with you. But I've seen styles that swear by the other way that you and I don't like. And I respect those who hold those opinions in good faith. I think someone once told me misra-c requires != 0.
Tell HN: Elon Musk Removes Login Prompt for Twitter
Eh, the thing is, for every rich group of assholes like that, there is some other rich group of assholes also scheming. To different ends. With different motives.

But you’re right, I should not have said there’s no Star Chamber. I should have said, there are a multitude of Star Chambers and their little conspiracies have no bearing on the actual world. They do believe it themselves.
I don’t like bailouts of any sort tbh. I think there should be a post secondary state paid option though. Not because I love paying taxes, but because I think society at large will benefit.
I thought this would be about frontend websites with ads, to me that is much worse problem than these mobile apps. At least mobile apps (native ones) provide a unified UI and framework, front end sites insult the user by ads which move the html around on the fly.

Anyone know what I mean? Can anyone relate to my frustration?
> I don't think that the pain of resolving conflicts scales super-linearly and that idea doesn't make sense to me. In fact, I think the opposite is true. I admit, that could be a taste issue.

Then we'll have to agree to disagree, as this is pretty fundamental to my argument - everything else ("Your coworkers get to see what you're working on and will notice clashes of intention earlier", "You can run incomplete features in shadow-mode to ensure they don't affect performance in production", etc.) is just sugar.

I really appreciate your well-reasoned and civil discussion!
IP addresses are frequently kept and stored to show users their active sessions. Are you sincerely doubting that a company like Google doesn't or can't use this information in other ways that support their core business? You don't have to call it "tracking", but I can't think of a better name.
I think you'd need a particular reason to not use Docker.
I dunno. I mean, yeah technology will be used in war, and counties ahead in technology will usually be able to design better weapons. But like:

> Technologies including drones, AI-based targeting and imagery intelligence, and Javelin missiles have allowed for a shocking defense of Ukraine against Russia

What is “AI-based targeting and imagery intelligence,” is it being used in Ukraine, and why is it sandwiched between two media-darling weapon systems? This kinda reduces my faith in the honestly of the author here. Does anyone know about weapons development, is he pulling a fast one?
Former US marine pilot unfairly classified 'high-risk' in Australian prison
It appears this veteran is going to be held in a 'supermax' prison for the single reason that they used to be a pilot in the US Marines.

If the military wants people to keep signing up, they might need to sprinkle some propaganda on reporting like this...
Before jaywalking, cars were demonized as rampant killers in USA. There were efforts to ban them in cities entirely. Certain interests didn't want that, so 'jaywalking' was invented - suddenly cars were not the invader in the pedestrian's street, it was the other way around--peds were now interlopers unless explicitly instructed by car infrastructure. This led to cars going faster in urban environments, with more infrastructure for cars while pedestrians got smaller and smaller slices of the street to use. This series of events is a huge cause of the current state of high pedestrian deaths by traffic. Legalizing pedestrianism is one move in a larger strategy to unroll the mistakes of the past and reclaim the most valuable parts of our cities for humans once again.
He's doing frontend web development now too? Truly a man of Starkian intellect.
StumbleUpon had something like this, you could go to a webpage and comment on it and others could see your comments. I stopped using it as it was a massive time waster/procrastination tool. But was pretty cool.
Everyone else has.
> If a tool is being constantly and egregiously misused at large scale

That’s quite the claim.
> The chart shows that the uptick begins in 2014

If we're guessing about correlations I'd point to something else that happened in 2014 that's much more significant and directly related: the death of Mike Brown in Ferguson, after which police who were roundly criticized for pulling over too many people committed to performing drastically fewer traffic stops. The second visible spike follows the death of George Floyd, which resulted in a redoubling of that commitment [0].

Likewise anecdotal: At least in the area where I live (Salt Lake City, Utah, USA), there seems to be a sharp rise in drivers who tailgate dangerously close on the freeway, especially in the carpool lane. I can be going 9+mph over the limit, and cars will still come flying up from behind, follow dangerously close for a few minutes, then illegally pass over the solid double white line so they can proceed 2-3 mph faster. And the drivers look so pissed off. Like it was a major insult that they were temporarily forced to drive slightly slower than their preferred speed. Yikes, people. Check your priorities.
0 is the false value in C, no implicit casting or "truthiness" involved. The C standard explicitly defines if statements in terms of zero: "the first substatement is executed if the expression compares unequal to 0... [else] is executed if the expression compares equal to 0".

C does not have a boolean type. (The `true` and `false` defined in stdbool.h are macros expanding to the integer literals 1 and 0, respectively.)

There's a lot of theories about seed oils, PUFAs, microplastics, corn syrup - what if it's just that food costs have gone down as a percentage of income over the last century and it took a few decades for the culture of overconsumption to kick in?

100 years ago people would have spent 25%+ of their income on food, nowadays it's more like <10%. You don't see this in countries where the income is much lower (although they're not eating a western processed diet, so it's hard to decide what's the cause). Medieval nobility were the only ones who could afford to get fat (e.g. Henry VIII) - maybe if the peasants could afford to eat as much as him they'd all be as fat as a modern person.
Obviously, such an important tool like clangd should be run by everyone, but saying that Clang is better is a false claim, Clang is still slower than GCC.
Holy cow, I had no idea. This is how to do it: when on the youtube page, click on the profile button in the top right -> settings -> playback and performance on the left -> disable inline playback.

/edit: It still plays videos on hover after changing it. Only now there is no player popup anymore.
TIL. Loved it!
I tend to worry about the opposite problem: what if the United States is successful in deploying artificial intelligence? In the article, the author uses the United States interchangeably with the concept of liberal democracy, which I believe is a fair assumption today. However, I worry that many of the author's calls to soak up more and more information for the purposes of military supremacy will cause irreparable damage to our political system. Artificial intelligence has the tendency to centralize power in the hands of a small number of people, and breakthroughs in AI are likely to exacerbate this trend. In short, the US might win this hypothetical war, but at what cost?

The way I see it, there are three kinds of technologies: A) those which tend to centralize information or control B) those which are essentially neutral and C) those which democratize information and control.

Group A artificial intelligence capabilities are not hard to imagine. Ubiquitous surveillance is a good example. Many current AI technologies are great for surveillance and can dramatically reduce the marginal cost of surveilling a person. For an autocracy this is great. For a liberal democracy, it threatens civil liberties and reduces trust.

Group B technologies are things like self-driving cars, precision agriculture, and AI-facilitated entertainment (e.g. recommender systems, Dall-E). These are things which I don't see as fundamentally helpful or harmful to liberal democracy. Another way to look at these technologies is that both autocracies and democracies should be equally amenable to developing and using them.

I can't think of any Group C technologies and this worries me. These are AI-enabled technologies whose effects are disproportionately democratizing. A democracy should seek these out while an autocracy will ban them.
> “This is an absolute failure from the government leadership.”

I’ve heard this line before. I think I heard it during the TP shortages in early Covid.

And I kind of wonder what the government is supposed to do. They don’t manufacture the product. They don’t sell it. They don’t distribute it.

Were they supposed to see whatever initial thing happened to shorten supply coming? The article doesn’t say what that was so it’s hard to speculate.

Were they supposed to have a stockpile in case panic buying ever started? Should they do that for everything “critical”?

Should the government have said “stop panic buying”? They probably did. That wouldn’t do anything anyway.

Pass the “That’s too much children’s Tylenol act of 2022” to limit purchases? Isn’t that kind of micro-managing?

I guess I’m not not sure what a non-authoritarian government without a command economy should be doing. Unless there were warnings like “In two years we’ll have to close the plant at X and there won’t be enough Y anymore”, how could they prevent this?

Exactly what “leadership” was needed?

When the baby formula shortage happened in the last year because a plan had to be shut down for safety, would that be the government’s fault for not realizing there wasn’t enough extra production in case such s situation arose?

Note: This article is the first I’ve heard of this children’s Tylenol shortage. So I’m speaking a bit more generally.
Pro-Western coordinated inauthentic behavior on Meta and Twitter [pdf]
Apple maps enrages me for doing this. When you first open the app it like shows a screenshot of what you were looking at last time while it loads. Sometimes that screenshot is retained as the active view (for example if I have a search up), but other times after a couple of seconds the whole app just resets. This causes me to hit the "dictation" button quite often instead of the X button that was on screen when I start tapping (X button to close previous search result is replaced with a view reset and now the dictation button is under my thumb).

A screenshot of the app shouldn't be a loading screen!! It seems to depend on how long it's been since the app was last opened and/or how the internet connection is at the time. Bank apps show a proper loading screen.
In C? C doesn't have a concept of truthiness, just zero and nonzero.
If we take up those two coins you mentioned and use them then your argument starts to fall.

Dash is already popular for payments and transactions with low fees.

Bottom line, a total miner capitulation event on any of these coins that are cheaper to mine is 100% unlikely. Computing and energy costs go lower and lower every year.
Would there be an issue of people panic buying more to stock up in fear the prices would go up further and they’d be priced out by the time they truly needed it?
As someone who usually keep the mouse away from what I am looking at (I find it distracting) It's super annoying for random shit that I am not looking at to be activating.
You're looking for people with high drive (rare) and high openness to experience (rare).

> my friends don’t have the same mindset

They're not parts of a mindset, they're part of a personality, and they're baked in. They can't be chosen. They can't be argued into. You're born with them.

If you want to find more people like that you'll have to work really hard. Your best bet is to make something those kind of people want. How? What? I have no idea.
Do you really think reCaptcha data only benefits Waymo? What about Google Maps detecting stop lights? Or wheelchair ramps?
Show HN: Visualizing the differences in fast food prices across the US
This probably isn’t super well known to regular people but there are pretty strict laws in place in the US that actively prevent the US military or intel community from ever running psyop campaigns against a US based audience.

Whoa, US military involvement as well.

1. United States: We removed 39 Facebook accounts, 16 Pages, two Groups and 26 accounts on Instagram for violating our policy against coordinated inauthentic behavior. This network originated in the United States and focused on a number of countries including Afghanistan, Algeria, Iran, Iraq, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Russia, Somalia, Syria, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan and Yemen. The operation ran across many internet services, including Twitter, YouTube, Telegram, VKontakte and Odnoklassniki. It included several clusters of fake accounts on our platforms, some of which were detected and disabled by our automated systems prior to our investigation. The majority of this operation’s posts had little to no engagement from authentic communities.

We found this activity as part of our internal investigation into suspected coordinated inauthentic behavior in the region. We’ve shared information about this network with independent researchers at Graphika and the Stanford Internet Observatory, who have published their findings about this network’s activity across the internet on August 24, 2022. Although the people behind this operation attempted to conceal their identities and coordination, our investigation found links to individuals associated with the US military.
Lost Roman Emperor Long Thought to Be Fake Was Real Leader in Time of Chaos
Which is factually correct, no? We cannot see beyond the cosmic microwave background, which post-dates the Big Bang by a significant amount. Barring the development of astronomical scale gravity wave detectors, we probably can’t probe further than the CMB, not directly at least. Things like the ratio of hydrogen to helium allow us to constrain our model of the Big Bang and early inflation, but that is parameter matching on the assumption of a big bang, not evidence for it.

That’s a fine but important point. The Big Bang is still the simplest cosmological origin story we have that fits the evidence, and I don’t think Sabine is denying it. Nor does she deny multiverse theories which have even less of a leg to stand on. The case of multiverse theory is even worse as there are no testable predictions which come from them.
I do have a particular reason - memory use. I am running postgres and redis locally for dev work, but I would love to use Docker so that I can standardize it for my team, but it just takes up to much ram on m1.
A similar list could be compiled by Russia for destroyed/captured Ukrainian equipment. This doesn’t negate the fact that there is rampant corruption throughout the entire Russian military.
Exactly this. The "AI race" is yet another nuclear arms race, where the American public is terrified into believing in some sort of (nonexistent) capabilities gap, and the only way to avoid utter defeat is to funnel billions, eventually trillions, of dollars to the right companies.
You mean the thing where Twitter used to constantly nag people to login?

Ok. That’s less user hostile.

But is that really worthy of a discussion?
It's low risk, but I have to push back against no risk. If someone splits it with a knife there's a plausible chance they nick the insulation by accident.
Okay, and can you name any decision by SCOTUS that was decided egregiously incorrectly in favor of liberal/progressives? And any decision by conservative SCOTUS that was decided correctly, to a detriment of liberal/progressive cause?

My point is that if your arguments and positions about matters or law always just so happen to align along partisan lines, why should anyone even pay any attention to the arguments long comments you write, when the conclusion is preordained anyway? Why should anyone even bother to answer to the Gish gallop of wrongheaded arguments, if no arguments would ever get to change your position?

Of course, you can prove me wrong, by pointing to any opinion of Court, written by Justice Scalia, that you think is correct, but most Democrat voters would prefer to have been decided differently. Can you?
