Elon can call Peter, and ask the Palantir people for the best snarky comment, policy, exposé, or forensic internal communication that Elon wants.

Some of what happened since the twitter takeover looks like bumbling incompetence.

Some of it is obviously assisted by very powerful people. Maybe it's just Elon's internal security and forensics team. Maybe not.
Vernon Unsworth sued in the US and lost. His lawyer was Lin Wood, who went from losing what seemed like an easy case, to proposing some of the more batshit legal theories of the 2020 election.

But Musk won, on the basis that he was making a joke. IANAL but I have to think that legal precedent that he jokes by calling people pedos means he can now call anyone a pedo with impunity.
Swing state realpolitik is the best predictor of his actions toward unions. I don’t doubt he wants to help, but we all live in the real world. A rail strike would be political suicide as there just isn’t national solidarity for the disruption.
Instigated isn't the same as called for, and called for isn't the standard being used to justify banning elonsjet.

Fauci received death threats, therefore all related tweets should be removed.

Crafting consistent moderation policies is a hard problem (kudos to dang and team)
When he is crowing with #TwitterFiles faux leaks about how an internal cabal were making policy decisions about banning people, then making an extra-policy decision banning something he didn't like (posting public information) and then trying to backport policy for it.. The whole thing rings a bit hollow.
Here's the thing. In an where ads get the volume cranked up, this seems like the natural blowback to that.

Good, bad, indifferent, adtech has become so hostile that users (myself included) have found ever more measures to excise it, because it feels compelled to show no restraint in its own appetites.

I'm old enough to remember when radio and TV adverts didn't comprise more than 15% of the total media stream, let alone online, where the visual real estate and the mid-stream extortion racket of context-daftness has gone mad (e.g. I want to watch a quiet modal jazz concert, but every 10 minutes a jarringly loud ad for Grammarly or Tide is injected at near earbleed volume) makes it that I pretty much download the media, put it up on my media server to play it, because the ads just make me want to (and actually do in 95%+ of cases) blacklist any brand annoying enough to go this route.

No one wants to moderate because the stakes to get more marketshare/eyeballs 'demand' it, just creates the incentive to avoid it. Google succeeded for years on less intrusive, more directed ads...then they decided to stop 'stop being evil' and took the DoubleClick/Taboola turdscape route along with everyone else. Now there is zero sympathy from listeners/viewers, because I would argue, the advertisers offer them no reason to.

Is that a rationalization? Maybe. But it's also a sincere observation.
Fair, although I’d think it acceptable if the response to your prompt was “which one? I found 4”
> Not sure about all its filters being RL. Sometimes it seems to flag its output as inappropriate because of a single word (or none at all). Also it has asymmetric behavior, e.g. it will make a joke about men but refuse to make one about women

Probably because in today's age, making jokes about men is a-okay, but making jokes against women might be perceived as misogynist. Potential misandry is okay, by comparison.
About 4 hours after the news story broke though. It seemed more like damage control than anything.
Because that stop short that complain train.
Heh, Ok. Checked that box. Very predictable though. Pity that he won the case against that diver. If he had lost that one it might have saved us all a lot of trouble.
Looks very nice, but on my old PC with my new 4k monitor it is unusable. It would be cool if it could render at half resolution (quarter the number of pixels) during animation and only when animation ends render one frame at full resolution.
"compromised" means the check bounced?
We process visual and audio data differently. No website or or magazine is going to trick me into thinking someone’s at the door by playing a dry doorbell sample over reverb for the rest of the ad.

Radio (and TV) are uniquely obnoxious in their use of instinctive audio cues to demand attention by making us go on alert.
Same. 2008-09 in my experience, it was much more like banter between friends. Lots of creative friends left for Instagram soon after it launched and never returned. The tone of Twitter inevitably changed. I use(d) Twitter and use Instagram very differently, as the circles of friends using them diverged.
it's slow going, but fortunately we still have a significant amount of time left
Any social network post from celebrity X who mention they just seen celebrity Y on a private party of celebrity Z? According to Elon this information about him cannot be shared on Twitter.

PS: I'm not exactly into US celebrities, but I'm very much into stalking Putin and his cronies using OSINT reporting on Twitter. Now anyone who publicly share their movements can be banned.

I guess a big problem is that people who were not taught how to use tools usually don't have them and don't know how to use them so they cannot do much even if they watched YouTube. For example, my wife declines to use any power tools (other than drill, for some reason) so she prunes trees with a hand saw, even though I have a power saw, which could have done the job 100 times faster.
History? As in, pushing the URL into the browser history when, e.g., navigating a paginated table? HTMX can do that with no issues.

I was going to say this reminds me of intercooler.js, but it looks like htmx is a sequel of sorts.

Very cool, I used intercooler for some stuff a while ago and I loved it, I'll have to check this out.
You're not obligated to buy a home in such a community. Even in areas where it's not practical to find a home with no HOA, the vast majority of them are low maintenance and don't do or cost a ton. You just don't hear people complaining about those.

Yup, the dude who's making fun of neo-pronouns is the one who named his kid X Æ A-Xii Musk.
Exactly. Just because information is publicly available, doesn't mean it's easy to find or access. Doxxing makes it easy to access and reference, and bridges the gap between a pseudonyms and real identity
Which works until it decides that the video is age restricted and requires you to login to view it.
Feels very snappy, but for me it's a non-starter: rejects connection to any site with a self-signed certificate, with no apparent means of override.

I get the security stance, but I configure a LOT of networking hardware via WebUI (eg: Palo Alto firewalls - self-signed from the factory) and this makes it next to useless.
But that's not a product of the medium, to be fair.
what in the world is this doing on the front page of hacker news.. This movie was hilarious. The The Big 3 Podcast podcast is hilarious. Particularly if you're a fan of say, Ron and Fez, and that line of comedy.

How has your mind changed? Was it based on aggregate stats or anecdotes?
Surely a basic PID controller with reasonable tuning could mostly mitigate the problem you describe, which isn’t really a different problem than a thermostat that would attempt to turn the furnace on and off multiple times per second if the thermometer was fluctuating between 74 and 75 multiple times per second. Granted, tuning the PID controller implies loosening the “maintain the exact target temperature at all costs” spec.

While I understand the appeal, attribute based frameworks always felt hacky for me.

OTOH React immediately clicked, as it is just javascript.

I've tried it both back in the Angular 1.0 days, but React came ahead both in the composability and maintainability departments.
That's pretty much the conclusion I'd come to when doing initial research. Good to know that others think the same. Mostly this is for the somewhere in the future type project we all have.
Let's see if they can factor a number greater than 12.
Twitter was manageable, even if it was a lot of work, but now it is just done.
I'm not really optimistic about this option, just a bit of wishful thinking about peace upon the world and such. OTOH, even with MAD we still have wars and probably much more than 100K people on average get killed in wars every year. Even with MAD, NATO is pushing conflict with Russia well beyond a proxy war at this point. MAD doesn't work if the world goes mad...
Apply the same logic to yourself. You worship the ground Musk walks on and he can do no wrong. Everything he does has a reasonable explanation to you, but if someone else did it then it might not be so reasonable. You have been indoctrinated by a conman and are projecting your psychosis onto other, more reasonable, people.

Is posting this link illegal too? It's public information.
I don't understand the adulation or the contempt.

He's done good things with SpaceX and Tesla. He's flawed. Shrug.
So why are his haters still so angry? They are against free speech and supported the right for a private company to moderate how it wants. That's what they've been saying the past several years. Elon has come around to their position!
Yes, it simulates blowing stuff up. Run this and wait: https://www.withdiode.com/projects/03af8e77-ff1b-4304-b1dd-d...

I think it's safe to say Lin Wood is not a good lawyer.
Boohoo. Elon Musk got a few dozen death threats.

Everyone he targets his army at gets thousands of death threats each. And Elon has a very, very, long list of past targets.

If Elon wants the death threats to stop he should stop instigating them against others.
I think we can all agree that celebrity stalking via plane tracking apps ought to have been prioritized above all the other safety issues Twitter is still fumbling around on ineffectually.
The issue is Musk literally tweeted support of the account and said it was allowed to exist. Then banned it for existing. Then made up a rule afterwards. Those are facts, why debate hypotheticals.
AFAIK, in the US, it's only considered entrapment if the officer (or other actor) explicitly entices you to perform an illegal action.

If they stand there, looking like a drug dealer, and you ask… all good.

If they ask you if you want coke, entrapment.

I'm not sure it's as cut and dry as that, but the gist is "would you have committed the crime regardless of the actor's behavior."
Yeah, the hypocrisy is what annoys me the most.

Not only does it contradict his direct statement about not banning @elonjet, it contradicts his statements about twitter policy being decided by a committee, as well as his numerous other statements about allowing free speech in general.

The policy itself I think makes some sense, although it's interpretation is ripe for abuse, just posting any random picture of someone in real time could be interpreted as a violation.
My Toshiba TV has that feature built-in - they call it "TruVolume". It detects sudden increases in the program's volume, and adjusts accordingly. You can turn the feature on or off. I think it may also turn the volume up when the program's volume goes down.
This is complete idiocy. Celebrities and billionaires don't get special speech rights. There are very good reasons all aircraft are tracked publicly. If Elmo's plane ever goes down or gets hijacked he might appreciate why. According to Twitter's new "policy" any person who takes a picture of someone in front of the Eiffel tower or any recognizable place can be accused of doxxing and banned.

Oh my.
Would be nice if we could include how many tesla's worth of CO2 or how many trees are required to offset each flight of the #elonjet.
Or they could choose to fly commercial like a destitute multimillionaire. The only reason this information is public is that they literally own the jet and the locations of aircraft in public airspace is required to be broadcast for obvious reasons.

The terms "right-wing" and "left-wing" do not refer to objective philosophical positions. They literally referred to where French delegates sat in the National Assembly of 1789. Today they refer to a web of political alliances that are historically - as opposed to philosophically - determined. So to answer your question, being pro second amendment is a right wing position because most American politicians who consider themselves right-wing are pro second amendment.

One of my use cases for Tailscale was connectivity between my primary NAS and an off-site NAS I use for backups. Being able to bring my NAS to the same site/network I had set-up the off-site NAS and just have things work over the LAN without reconfiguring anything was a wonderful surprise.

(Yes, I’m aware I could save some overhead by reconfiguring but looking at the network traffic monitor I was happy enough with the throughput I got though Tailscale’s LAN routing)
Some people hope that training will cause it to represent meanings somehow. How to represent meaning isn't well understood.

I have a hard time believing that the same crowd that is paranoid that there's a conspiracy to hunt down women seeking abortions through digital technology wouldn't also take issue with live location sharing.

But maybe people are just monomaniacally obsessed. They need to direct their hatred at some target. They found Elon Musk after moving on from Trump, and they don't care at all about the substance of these matters.
Germans had problems with having just any soldiers kill off locals so they established special units to do it, and had problems there too.

How is this any different than changing the tv channel (...or radio station) when an ad comes on, which has been the de facto consumer behavior for over half a century?
Maybe they didn't want him to go in front of Congress because they were afraid Congress might grant him immunity. Given all the money he donated to both sides, it seems plausible to me.

So if we asked GPT to write a book, it would be hallucinating a chain of words without sticking to any coherent plot. However, we could use a "multi-resolution" approach even with today's version of GPT: at the top level we ask it to write a brief plot for the entire novel, at the next level we'll use this plot as the context and ask to outlines sub-plots of the 3 books in our novel, at the third level we'll use the overall plot and a book's summary as context to generate brief descriptions of chapters in the book, and so on.

As a kid we had a very simple (mercury) thermostat which had two levers -- one for heating set-point & one for cooling set-point. I recall it working quite well.
He's just speed running all the decisions and problems the last lot faced. They started with anyone being able to say anything too, and then spent 10+ years finding every exception and complication to that policy.
From the article:

> No evidence has emerged yet to link Bankman and Fried to their son’s alleged crimes, and their level of legal culpability depends on their knowledge of the alleged fraud, Barhoma said.

That HN thread you linked to has multiple people providing good explanations why an emeritus professor retiring is nothing like “quitting” and they are right. They have plenty of reasons to not want to optinally teach classes they didn’t have to teach, at a minimum helping their son in crisis.

That’s hardly a suggestion of guilt
I just tend to wrap my timer callbacks in a requestAnimationFrame, which should delay processing when the page isn’t visible. I guess this is a hack, but it’s been with me for so long now.
A rule of "don't piss off Elon" is much more honest and easier to follow. It's really not a big deal either, most Twitter use cases don't involve Elon at all -- all it takes is Elon losing face about the free speech thing.

It's trying to be both ban-everything-elon-dislikes while letting Elon claim Twitter is a full free speech zone that makes it entertaining. Trying to make rules around how Elon is feeling that day, and probably how high he is at the time of the pronouncement is always going to make for ridiculous results
We need more license plate trackers... or maybe we can track his tire's TPMS....

That would've been cheaper than buying twitter for sure.
I'm probably one of the few users here who saw it when it first came out.
More importantly, flying it in public airspace is.
What I really like about ElonJet and Sweeney's other accounts is they included emission estimates. Really blew a hole in the idea that you could ever consider Musk or Gates to be environmentalists. A recent Musk flight between Washington and Miami emitted 9 tons of CO2 [1], which is nearly double what a fuel inefficient car would emit each year. How can you tell me I'm the problem with my single truck and couple of commercial flights each year when you've got multiple Teslas and hundreds of private flights each year?

I hate elon musk as much as anyone else, check my comment history. But literally no one has said that to me in the 4 years that I have owned a Tesla.

Honestly, Who really cares? Perhaps I haven't met the discerning average German car buyer.

You know what bugs me about my car? The fact that the range has dropped by 20% and Tesla support says there is no problem.
