I'm trying not to be too cynical because it really is incredible technology but it's also true that it's still pretty far from replacing anything but the most mundane writing tasks. I tried to get chatgpt to write CTAs for a nonprofit and they were clear and grammatical but also trite, facile and reductive. Like I'm blown away it even understood what I asked and delivered exactly ok brief but if a professional writer gave me the same output I'd be sorely disappointed.
The US isn’t giving up Taiwan- it’s the perfect opportunity to humiliate the CCP. China is in way over their heads if they actually believe they can achieve a naval landing on a fortified island without air superiority. It would be an absolute massacre.

Additionally, the US could simply embargo Chinese supply lines and dare them to engage.
Chrome and Safari require that TLS certificates include cryptographic promises of future log inclusion ('SCTs') from N trusted CT logs. As far as I know, neither of them actually contact the log's API endpoints to make sure that this has gone through, but in practice IMHO it's not much of a security gap for various reasons.
lol. those are pretty good indeed! Who knows, maybe its your new calling. Next thing you own a billion-dollar supplements company.
I’m probably not going to play this, because I don’t want to sink hundreds of hours into it (again). But it’s an instant release-day Steam buy for me; these guys are legends, and deserve some cash and recognition for their original work on DF, and also for what looks to be a well-executed graphical overhaul.

“Better UI” was the #1 DF feature for as long as I played it; it will be interesting to see how many more players they get in this incarnation.
Given their incentives to profit financially, not being evil would take a concerted effort which could be avoidd simply with an appearance of good, so it seems quite statistically probable that evil is more common than not.
There are a lot: https://www.chipsetc.com/semiconductor-companies-in-arizona....
If you think wanting to hide previous/future transactions from other private entities is money laundering and illegal, I think you need to re-educate yourself on how that stuff works.

Money laundering is trying to hide the source or nature of illegal activities. Privacy in itself is not illegal nor money laundering.
In short: they are grey and shiny.
> My severance package is much smaller than most, since my company is framing the thousands of layoffs as “performance based” which allowed them to skip the mandatory notice period, and avoid paying out our very generous severance packages.

Consider talking to a lawyer, and comparing notes with other people in the same boat. Doing this is almost certainly illegal in the US. (In addition to owing you severance, they may also be open to slander/libel charges. I am not a lawyer.)
I ran into an interesting point about poker in a recent episode of EconTalk[0]. Really good players play slightly more hands than they should (ie on a tournament table with 9 seats, a good player might play 15-20% of hands). Amateurs play way more hands than they should - like 50% or so. Translating to this thread, I’d map “playing a hand” to committing real resources to a project (switching tech stacks, etc). Pros will be somewhat conservative and only take that bet when they have a higher expectation of success.

Neutral colours – maybe we are being exposed to so many opinions and conflict through mass media, that we prefer to surround us with neutrality?
This is off topic but I’ve wondered why cat panels are designed in a way that makes them so difficult to fix yourself. It would be nice if I could patch em up or change the color myself, like I can with my walls at home, without making my machine stand out.
Agreed with the diagrams. But, if your job is to convey information, and non-techies prefer that method, then... well, you abide. And charts _are_ useful for sure.
So the question is, if those were not airtags but Google Pixel phones, would they sue Google for it?

I mean... you can do pretty much the same with Google Pixel and more. You can buy used ones for cheaper than an AirTag. And it does not require any special knowledge either.

About the only thing is that it is easier to conceal an AirTag and it will run for much longer, but there is no shortage of places on a car where you can be sure your wife will never look and many times you don't need for it to stay active for weeks or you have ability to charge it regularly making it only a bit of nuisance.
I call the look "vintage file cabinet".
Limbs/organs are bad example since that is actually implemented in vanilla RimWorld, including organ trading.
> Is "discrimination" really the only evil we can think of these days?

Increasingly, yes. I have joked for a while now that in the future, the only prosecutable crime will be bigotry. I see less and less consideration of civil principles like speech and privacy.
I'm talking about the statement that "Real parents consistently make it clear how terrible having kids is."

If they "seem" happy in all my interactions, I don't see how they can be "consistently mak[ing] clear how terrible having kids is."

I also don't see how some secret only-tell-the-therapist-and-pollsters views could qualify as "consistently mak[ing] clear" their supposed negative feelings.
"Wet-putty cars is part of a broader mainstreamification of gray-shaded consumer-good colors heavily targeted at younger Gen-X-ers and Millennials." Basically, it's a design trend from architecture and consumer products that bled into car colors, according to the article.

I've been wondering about this for years. At first, I thought it might have something to do with new paint manufacturing techniques or environmental concerns with traditional paint jobs. But probably just a design trend.
> It included a full schematic of the TV.

I think I agree with the OP. I'm happy for folks that find comfort in the company they decide to keep. I am always confused by the idea that this is somehow the religion a person chooses that is the deciding factor.

Take the first callout, "I have always believed that one of the great arguments for being part of a collectivist Christian tradition is their willingness to do voluntary, gruelling manual labour and call it love." What about that actually requires the "Christian" part? And the odd implication that other collectivist traditions would not find a path to volunteering is... a little chilling to me.
It's too late, it's already inside you :(
This is it exactly - "startups" that are concerned with solving a problem and NOT with playing with VC are just bootstrapped companies, doing business things.
This sounds very much like the kind of logic that's been roundly criticized from the Effective Altruism people in recent weeks.

"This company has a goal to some day in the far future do massive amounts of unquestionable good! Therefore, you must allow them free rein to do whatever they want now, or you're keeping people disabled."

We have ethical rules for scientific research for a reason. We have, as a society, decided that we value the lives, comfort, and dignity of both humans and (to a lesser degree) animals now more than potential future good. If we can get to that future good, we will be able to do so without resorting to destructive and unethical means...or it's not worth getting to.
Each single project involving lab animals done with public money must be approved by an independent ethics commitee. This is the normal way.
I love how arm chair engineers have solved the water crises in the south by suggesting people "just build pipelines!".

Just the lack of understanding of like 15 different aspects of the problem with that idea and the confidence to defend regardless is kind of amazing.
OSS allows really hard pieces of software to be built, most of FOSS is unable to be built if not FOSS.
What is the biggest and/or hardest proprietary project? Windows7+? Modern chipset including CPU? Apple jail? And what will happen with this technology if all the source code leaks somehow, don't you believe it will become 10x-100x better by some measures?
It's about time. I've been waiting to give these people my money for a decade.
I didn't want it to be shorter. I just think she could have explored all the same themes and told all the same anecdotes without any of them explicitly being connected to Christianity.

Except, perhaps, for the willingness of communitarian anabaptists to do hard work as a group, but even then, how much of that relates to their Christian faith and how much to their communitarian outlook (something they share with non-Christian groups).
The problem can be easily sidestepped by referring to it as a "Mastodon alternative", rather than a "Mastodon instance".

(Even if it weren't that easy, I'd still agree that referring to it as a "Mastodon instance" is both wrong and weird, regardless of how popular and relatable Mastodon is.)
> If Tether was minting unbacked USDT, then Tether would eventually be shown to be insolvent.

Tether's has been shown to be technically insolvent every time they've been forced to open their books.

> Second, if you're manipulating the price upward, it becomes more and more expensive to maintain the price. Like let's say Tether issued USDT to pump the price of BTC. If they wanted to maintain that long-term, they'd need to print more and more USDT to maintain the price, which gets us back to insolvency.

This is literally what they seemed to have done though. Tether's market cap hovered around a few billion for a few years and then suddenly shot up to almost 80B.
This would only be true if the demand were capped. Other scenarios are also conceivable: For example, if the same workers in this sector can produce for a third of the price, demand may perhaps increase by more than three times and the number of workers would have to increase accordingly, not decrease.
Plot twist, a friend just bought it for me. Now to see how playable it is on a steamdeck.
This doesn't explain why query parameters in a .well-known URI is a bad idea, it just explains that you don't like them. That's fine, and I agree with you, but I'm asking for the actual technical reason people are claiming query parameters in a .well-known URI is a bad idea.
> Adjustable vocals: Users now have control over a song’s vocal levels. They can sing with the original artist vocals, take the lead, or mix it up on millions of songs in the Apple Music catalog.

Everyone I know would call that karaoke. And I assume will when telling their friends about this new feature.

If I search for Apple Sing on google news, the first 5 articles all call it "karaoke-like" or just "a karaoke feature".

Whatever reason they have for not saying the word karaoke, I don't think it's that it's not what most people consider karaoke.
It won't happen anytime soon, so you don't have to worry. I am not arguing that everyone should stop having kids. This comment will not be read by everyone.

Also, it's not just my feeling, it's proven by research: https://www.kimnicholas.com/uploads/2/5/7/6/25766487/fig1ful....
Yeah... the whole "put esoteric graphical buttons required for frequent and repetitive game actions on a static background around the viewport" is thankfully consigned to the dustbin of history.

I realize why it was done: maximizing interactive graphics on the limited hardware of the day by shrinking the rendering region.

But good god, making core user interface elements that unusable is a fever dream only someone completely unfamiliar with time-motion studies or prior mainframe keyboard art could dream up.

They could have at least made it hands-on-keyboard and had a shrunken viewport.
I believe you. People that doubt these things are usually projecting some kind of insecurity. "It's impossible!"... no actually, not only is it possible but it happens all the time and yes it happens with FAANG workers too.

It's funny, when this topic comes up, the people that are juggling multiple jobs are usually stuck in this weird place where they want to convince people it's true but at the same time not draw too much attention to it (for obvious reasons).
I just inputted [My company will _]: "deliver zero value through the use of advanced cryptographic algorithms and web3 protocols" and got some pretty nice names, alas most of them are already taken.
Does anybody know, what the flakes, that the article mentions, is made of? It made me wonder, because they also state, that the colour is used everywhere, not just cars. Also made me wonder, what the real reason might be? Cost? Availability? Environmental protection legislation?
It's a GRR Martin story generator?
I am not convinced it won't work on multiple models. They don't actually provide a list of supported devices. The language here is unclear.

At first, I thought it meant that this only was on the current Apple TV 4K, but then I thought it might just be marketing speak to get people to buy Apple TVs.

But maybe the jump from the A12 to the A15 does provide something that makes this possible. The only thing I can think of is the neural engine (although that first debuted in the A11).
Good thing you trust the competent scientists he's hired, because they're the ones blowing the whistle on Musk's operating practices. The lede: "Elon Musk’s Neuralink, a medical device company, is under federal investigation for potential animal-welfare violations amid INTERNAL STAFF complaints that its animal testing is being rushed, causing needless suffering and deaths." (emphasis mine)
It's actually much, much worse than that. Tether, by misrepresenting its reserves, essentially "prints" money by faking the peg. This was already done in the overnight lending markets by huge financial institutions abusing the fractional reserve system, but at least there's a tiny facade of regulation on that side.*

You don't mention children, but that's an important data point. Your small apartment is suddenly smaller, and if you want to be in a good public school district, your rent options are now a lot more expensive. Or you can go private, and suddenly discover brand new ways to have no money.

A lot of singles and DINKs like this sort of arrangement, but a community that has few or no children is dying, if not already dead.

Mobility is less of an option once you have children embedded into the community. Moving across the country is exciting and fun, until it means uprooting your kids. That's how a city, town, neighborhood maintains stability. Transients are not a long-term solution.

Cities chased out families with ever-increasing costs. This worked okay as long as business needed to be conducted in cities. That's no longer the case, turning our urban centers into glorified roadside RV parks.
The fact that most karaoke audio tracks are performed as covers for financial reasons does not change how the word karaoke is used in actual language.
Cool idea, but it shows unavailable domains as green.
Heck, when I write throwaway scripts most of my variables are different slang terms for feces. Sure, I use foo, bar, baz, bing sometimes too. But I never grew up either. At some point I decided that was a Good Thing, and I have no further plans to mature.
Reminds me of this, which was posted here a month or so ago:

Apple bought out all of Newsweek's 1984 Election issue ad space for Mac
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33220801
Cars are also festooned with retro-reflectors in case the lights are off, including the license plate.
That feels like an accidental, not essential, property of karaoke. I doubt anyone who enjoys karaoke would reject a track recorded by the original artist because it wasn't a cover by someone they'd never heard of.
Or: Apple is profiting from both repairs and sale of repair kits?

(I have no idea which is true, but the fact that the kit is roughly the price of the repair+a reasonable salary for the work is by no means an indication that they make no profit)
It is sad indeed and many of us feel used and discarded. But maybe this will have a different outcome than we envision. Maybe the capitalist class can be automated away too
Thats why Buffet bought that stock a week ago..
I just don't get the hype around make/CMake/autotools. I usually implement the build tool in the language I am working on (build.py for Python, etc.). It seems that Zig[1] also follows this.

What am I missing?

Source? Most universities have an IRB for non-human test subjects, and the federal funding requirements may require an IRB, but I can't find any federal requirements for an IRB on non-human subjects if you're not taking federal funding, even for FDA approval.
Also, anti-poaching agreements - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antipoaching :

> Research has found that 58 percent of major franchisors' contracts in 2016, including those of McDonald's, Burger King, Jiffy Lube, and H&R Block, contained agreements not to hire the workers of other franchisees

You mentioned "standard contracts".

I had a possible customer want me to toss my contract in favor of one they wanted. It said that I "will defend or settle any action brought against Customer" - basically, if they were sued for their use of my software then I would have to pay the court costs.

This is very unusual. I DDG-ed it, and found it likely came from a "subscription based contract database and resource center that helps over 300,000 lawyers and business owners draft and negotiate contracts more effectively", found at https://www.lawinsider.com/clause/ptcs-obligation-to-indemni..., with the example has "PTC, at its own expense, will defend any action brought against Customer based on a claim that any Licensed Product infringes a United States patent, copyright or trademark and ..."

So, along the lines of what you said, though from a vendor perspective.

BTW, I said "fuck off", though in polite terms. "This clause will require renegotiation of the price as I have not included litigation in the pricing. I can identify an appropriate insurance company and pass the costs to you."
it's actually possible to download a list of all domains in .com TLD.
Google for how to download domains from ICANN. I think it takes like a day to your request approved.
Personally, I find these "putty" colors to be very nice looking - particularly the gloss grey. It is the polar opposite of the "look at me" red cars of the past. There is a common idea that red cars get more tickets - not sure if that's true, but I have always chosen silver as it is more nondescript and also you don't notice dirt on it as much.
I love the pencil-sketch style of your finding. Really cool.

I am using OpenAI GPT3 with a single (but long) prompt, explaining how to come up with the names that I think would be interesting.

Honestly, people who just about "prompt engineering" are pretty on point. It requires a bit of experimentation, but in this case I didn't have to do any fine tuning of the model itself, just the prompt.

I might come up with an array of different prompts to alter results, depends on user preferences.
There is a reason why many CEOs should be burned at the stake...
What? How does Tether come into this? How is it related to FTX?
anecdotally, this is marketing bs / wishful thinking.

I've been on a handful of flights in the last 2 years where the air system didn't work at all, and others where the climate control system was otherwise failing (80°F). This is accentuated by stale air when you embark and disembark when the aux generators aren't providing power.
USDC is not nearly as shady. Nothing forcing you to use USDT.

Friends in Turkey were turning their savings into USDC and DAI to save themselves from their country’s near 100% inflation.

Crypto critiques need to take off the first-world Goggles.
You don't think law enforcement considers whether it has enough evidence for a conviction prior to arresting someone, especially if that person is 1) actively producing more evidence of the crime by the minute, 2) not apparently a flight risk, and 3) not actively further harming the public?
I think there are cases where manufacturers blatantly disregard opportunities for misuse that should fall upon them (Tesla's FSD releases with Elon's "wink wink don't take your hands off the wheel" come to mind). I just don't think this is one of them.
> And public opinion in Taiwan for resisting China has slightly shifted toward accomadation.

Huh? No it hasn’t. Taiwan doesn’t want to end up like Hong kong. They know the 1 country 2 systems doesn’t exist. Taiwan is already an independent country. They just want to keep status quo so China will leave them alone.
Some places ban knives based on the opening mechanism. E.g. from what I can tell the UK bans spring-assisted opening knives (switchblades in colloquial terms).
> Fairphone for example does a great job showing us what what would look like.

Which is to say that it makes a trade off of improved repairability by sacrificing water resistance and battery life compared to Apple’s phones. TANSTAAFL
The actual technical reason is that it prevents us from implementing it with static files.
While I like the idea of universal income, something I don’t quite understand: How would it prevent inflation such that the bar for survival isn’t just adjusted to be higher?
It hypes the sale of one worthless piece of property so this guy can make a million dollar profit on it, apparently.
In a follow-up tweet: “ In the limit case, you're left with just the founders. And we're not far from it. Instagram had only 13 employees when it was sold for a billion dollars.”

Why stop at the founders? Why not just have an algorithm churn out ideas for companies, an AI to build them, and another to launch them? What will Paul Graham do when even his job, as investor and producer of thoughtless observations on technology, labor and capital, has been automated away by an AI capable of writing similarly valid-sounding but uninformed takes?
