I really enjoy visiting Indonesia and have many friends there that talk about how they can't visit some places because they'll be attacked and killed. The government focusing on codifying religious values in to criminal statues has never ended well for any people's in the history of the world.

The government should focus on freedoms of choice for it's people and allow them to chose the moral codes they follow.
When I make a edit on wikipedia, I am doing it for my own benefit and others and I am not dealing with stressful work. That is totally different of having to work as a moderator on an instance where some of the members might be reporting cases of racism, harassment and sometimes just petty uncivil people.

Also, Wikipedia has donation drives, non-profit status and a highly controversial history of how it spends the funds they collect. Lots of high quality contributors already left because they were not recognized in any way and ended up feeling exploited.
I’ve downloaded a copy in the past. It’s a large zone file full of NS records (obviously?) and compressible to a high degree.

I have 3 officers in my family, 1 of them being a parent. I’d have to disagree, but not strongly. So would they, they are a lot of fair criticism of how police are trained these days and a fair level dislike. My family members needed a degree, require extensive training comparably, and had more programs with the community.

Even talking about the police as a collective from the perspective of the US is odd. So many departments are different, they are not fully one entity.

The most important thing is that it is just that, a job.

>Now, you could call it subsidizing in that there are probably products that wouldn't be brought to market without the NA market to pay for them, but that's not really "subsidizing".

That's every product ever made for profit by a developer in a 1st world country. It's still essentially subsidizing even if you don't like the optics of the word.
I put in an old business idea (that I started working on and parked a domain for) and it suggested the domain I had parked (in red to show it was taken). Nice! :-)
You can do both, Disco Elysium is a recent example that springs to mind.
1) Texans pays something like 15c/kWh and Germans pay something like 30c/kWh. The German grid is far inferior to the Texan one given that they'll both have availability in the 99% range.

2) In Texas you have to be ready for a 48 hour blackout in case your supplier is incompetent. In Germany you have to be ready for a 48 hour blackout in case of ... usual local incompetence? Although the Texan grid is obviously less reliable, that doesn't actually change the amount of preparation that households should be doing.

3) There is also a pretty reasonable argument that it is better to have a rare blackout than to have no plan or experience for a major blackout. It is terrible planning to assume that nothing can go wrong.

4) Texan greed got them to ~25% renewable penetration in their electricity mix. It is cheap and sustainable. The German energiewende has got them to around 40% renewable penetration and "highly dependent on Russian energy, as it gets more than half of the natural gas, a third of heating oil, and half of its coal imports from Russia. Due to this reliance, Germany blocked, delayed or watered down EU proposals to cut Russian energy imports amid the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine" [0]. This wasn't a close contest, the Texan regulators - the ones who leave it a bit more to greedy capitalists - are the ones that people should be putting in charge.

The failures of putting non-greedy people in charge of the German energy grid was so bad it had geopolitical consequences! That is why we try to leave it up to greedy people. If they'd listened to us greedy types they'd be knee-deep in reactors and not crippled by the threat of Russian sanctions. The people pushing the Energiewende thought they were a force for good, and it turns out they were the exact opposite. They were empowering a land war in Europe.

No one is hiring ditch diggers because someday they may grow to become backhoe operators. No one is hiring content farm writers who can be replaced by an AI with someone a bit more senior providing some basic supervision. And no one will hire junior developers when frameworks, AIs, etc. can replace 90% of what they can do.

I think the point is (at least for me it is), when you do that, have you done anything new that few or nobody else has done before?

No, it's just a well worn path which thousands of organizations have done already.
That would be illegal in my country. Dividend is considered an unearned income and is taxed differently as well.

They could perhaps give the worker a minimum wage and the rest pay in dividends, but mind that dividends need to be distributed among all the shareholders equally, so you can't say you would pay $100,000 unless you allocate shares so that when dividend pay out is decided, worker's shares will yield that exact amount.
> Having a user decide what is repairable instead of a company

Users do not know better.

As soon as you have aftermarket repairs, next thing you know, users are suing makers because some aftermarket nonsense burned a hole in their leg, or more recently, because their entire multi-family dwelling burned down.

It's been interesting how fast the same places passing laws giving right to repair pass jump to pass laws that you can't use repaired things so people don't die.

I suspect Wikipedia has a very different reader:writer ratio than social media and thus Wikipedia needs proportionately less moderation. On the hardware side, Wikipedia is centralized and mostly static content so it should be cheaper to operate.

> In other words, people who moved on from the gender assigned to them at birth.

Yes, and the Latin word trānseō (nominal form trānsitiō → English: transition) means exactly to "go on across", "go beyond". Trāns ("across, beyond") + eō, it ("I go, he/she/it goes") + tiō (→ English: "-tion"). It's a distinction without a difference.
One thing I had to learn to value my sanity here was to simply not argue about certain topics, such as software architecture. It was like there was this wall of people who emerge from the shadows anytime I argue for better architecture, because it wasn’t directly responsible for Important Enterprise Business Features.

Now I realize there’s probably more than one flavor of engineer:

1. software eng: ships features, prefers to use ready-made abstractions

2. infrastructure-ish eng: ships things that enable shipping of features, prefers to invent abstractions

The things they value are very different! I suspect HN tends more toward SW engineers (because statistics) with some stuff for infrastructure engineers.
If you look at the files, many of them are not compliant, and so we need to figure out what the associated line item corresponds to: a CPT code? HCPCS code? ICD code? etc :)

That seems pretty reasonable. It doesn't make it less strange that people are so confidently asserting that there's no possible reasonable basis for a lawsuit though.
VCs with rigorous process get out-competed by the ones that jumped at garbage companies that racked up huge valuations and then cashed out. VC isn't about making good companies, it's about cashing out. There's no value in the business actually being good, only in it being hyped up.

Mandated warranty is 24 months. But the burden of proof (of some kind of manufacturing defect) is on the consumer after 6 months.

So really, you only get 6 months of little to no questions asked.
Can't confirm this for Germany - we usually have a single (dominant) union per trade or industry segment - e.g. Ver.di for the entire service sector. I think in this way, unions here are significantly more centralized than in the US.

Standard salary rates are usually negotiated by those dominant unions for the entire sector (though in the last decades, a lot of this stuff has been deregulated, so the salary rates have become less relevant today, except for state employees)

Employees are not required to join a union - however in every company above a certain size, they have the right to a work council. Unions can initiate an election for such a council even against the orders of the company's management. While the unions can enforce creation of work councils and usually offer ongoing support, the councils are generally independent and staffed by company employees.

See Ver.di vs Twitter for a current example where a work council is founded in opposition of management (text in german) : https://www.verdi.de/themen/recht-datenschutz/++co++43ec9312...
My father was a brickmason. He could lay a completely level row of brick, using no line- and in the time that it would take 3 people to do the same thing.

Street meth is often quite pure (>90% is not unusual) and this has been true for decades. With that in mind, I can't really figure out what this alleged supermeth being referred to could be.

I think the trend here is pretty simple: high-purity crystal meth has become significantly cheaper over time, enabling people to engage in sustained binges at high doses that are both just deranging (imagine a week of no sleep) and particularly at high doses, neurotoxic. So, more meth-crazy people. Where I live, it's roughly 1/5th what it cost twenty years ago.
Yep. This is one of the big reasons in favor it UBI. It flattens the curve so people can try to get back on their feet without severe consequences of they fail.

I know someone who is on social security disability. They can't even save money to buy a car without losing their benefits. For medical reasons, they are unable to work a full-time job, but they could possibly work virtually part time. But if they even apply to a job they lose their benefits. And the amount they get from social security isn't even enough to pay housing and medical expenses, nevermind food. If they didn't have external support they'd be SOL.
>All rises in incidents of transgenderism are easily explained by a more tolerant society accepting it. The same appeared when we stopped pathologizing left-handedness - all the kids didn't suddenly become left-handed, but the ones that were felt comfortable no longer hiding it.

I think you are repeating talking points from John Oliver. If trans identifying people were evenly distributed among the population then it would appear a natural phenomenon. Unfortunately in some cases this is not true. Groups of young girls are coming out as trans together. Trans youth are clustered by social circle, not randomly distributed. Being trans is a legitimate identity but it is false to say that every single person who announces that they are trans is in fact trans.
amazing! the author displays great pedagogical skill to his student
As some other commenters have said, this is really a self-inflicted problem. The author has chosen to do an EDA task which is very manageable on a laptop via a convoluted stack of cloud services - possibly just to illustrate a point. But even if this all worked smoothly, the fact that it is far removed from "software engineering" has more to do with the fact that it's a data analysis project. If it were about about writing firmware for audio hardware it would look very different.

Nitpick: ! for shell commands is an IPython feature, not Jupyter. It doesn't work with other kernels.
I spent a couple years on the YouTube Music team, adjacent to the folks who handled the nightmare that is music rights and licensing.

It was explained to me that the reason YouTube didn't offer a karaoke feature -- despite having licenses to a lot of lyrics -- is that karaoke is considered a separate license.

Even if you license both the recording and the lyrics, combining them into a karaoke feature isn't on the table by default.

I personally have no idea how accurate that is, but this was the scoop I got from those in a position of authority.

If it is indeed true, then perhaps that is a factor in Apple's decision not to use that word.
I've recently had a similar problem making a game with javascript. I stated making it render with plain dom elements and transforms because it was simpler, however I noticed that sometimes it stuttered.

After looking at performance tab it turned out that dom modifications trigger uBlock to run it's internal checker(presumably to check in case you are adding some ads onto the page). It's not a problem in a normal circumstances, but when you are updating dom 10+ times a second it sometimes chugs. Rewrote rendering to use canvas and the problem went away.

Might me something similar here.
Why should it be? If Trump is right and the election was fraudulent, then the social contract that underlies the Constitution is void. You can't implement the Constitution without it.

Trump isn't right -- but the fact that tens of millions of Americans believe he is also undermines the social contract. So either way, it seems like the Constitution is on pretty shaky ground.

The Constitution is not greater than the belief of people in the Constitution. And if a President -- and the vast majority of his supporters -- have lost that belief, then the entire question seems moot.
I find the claim that Ukraine is a "democracy" questionable considering the handling of the conflict in Donbas. Rather than allowing devolution of powers to the region, so that the predominantly Russian-speaking people of those regions can make local laws that reflect their interests, they have pursued a devastating 8 year long war. During the cause of this war, they have repeatedly reneged on promises made in treaties and deployed large neo-nazi militias, who view their activity in Donbas as part of an anti-slav race war. I do not think such actions are compatible with democracy.

I mean, basically the web sucks right now. Classic rant incoming: There's definitely a need that sits between boring PR release and ad-filled regurgitation.

Regarding your art, as someone who graduated from art school, the most important thing above all else is concept, not technicals.

If you're just painting, sculpting, drawing, etc just to do it and enjoy it, then you have nothing to worry about since the enjoyment of the process is fulfilling in itself.

If you're creating projects for the sake of expressing/communicating something for yourself or an audience, then the focus needs to be on developing the concept and refining it, before deciding how to execute it or what the medium(s) will be. If there isn't a strong concept then the work is dead in the water, AI or not.
>When you use ZK, you are issuing the proof AND have knowledge of the inputs. The prover needs to know the inputs, but does not need to reveal them to the verifier (which happens on chain).

Can you elaborate more on this? What is this a ZKP proof for? That the transaction is valid?

Also from all the ZKP examples I've seen in crypto[graphy] class, soundness relies on the ability to repeat the process again and again. How does this work for the blockchain case where it seems like there's only one round of communication between prover/verifier?

"In two separate incidents, experimenters used an unapproved adhesive called BioGlue to fill holes in the animals’ skulls, which seeped through to the monkeys’ brains. In one monkey, the use of BioGlue caused bleeding in her brain, and she vomited so much from the resulting side effects that she developed open sores in her esophagus"

Might be good to let people know you are the Founder of the above mentioned service.

Also, I couldn't find any information about the data it was trained on, and comparison with OpenAPI since you are offering yourself as a replacement for their API.

edit: found the following blog post: https://text-generator.io/blog/over-10x-openai-cost-savings-...

I can't see how its a 10x saving when your API performs worse than davinci (according to the blog post), and is 0.01$ per request. Assuming each request to use up 1000 tokens, the next OpenAPI model Curie is just 0.002$ per request.
The skill of the broadcast announcers is remarkable. They paint the scene with audio-only in an amazing way.

My father (and my grandfather before him) takes a little battery-powered AM radio with him to games (football, baseball, etc) and listen to it while watching the game live. They've even muted the TV and used TV picture with radio sound to get a better experience. That makes it easy to take naps and close your eyes without missing key parts of the game.
It might be if they had better filters. IAP being used to effectively turn a demo into a full, paid version is one thing. Or IAP for some limited number of expansions in a game. IAP being used for "consumables" or to nickel-and-dime every feature is something else. But it's hard to distinguish between the two uses when browsing the store—and that's a big part of the reason I hardly game at all on iOS, browsing their games to sort wheat from chaff is too much of a chore and their games section in particular is a horrible mess because IAP exists and their filtering options suck. Problem goes away if the apps are simply paid or free, no IAP. Or if they'd create more categories for various uses of IAP, and let you filter by them.

This is absolutely true.

> Trans healthcare for kids does not involve surgery. Surgeries are not performed for people under the age of 18.

Unfortunately that is not true.

There are surgeons who perform 'gender affirming' double mastectomies on girls as young as 13. This is documented in the medical literature.

The former CEO of Mermaids, a UK-based charity for children who identify as transgender, had her child castrated and given a penile inversion at the age of 16, by a surgeon who specializes in constructing 'neovaginas'.

A flight risk is 100% a thing. What is the opposite based on, that he is an idiot, or that even if he is he wont get some advice on that end? That's crazy talk.
