There were also parts of the country that saw "the last electric train"... transitioned to diesel! By 1920, the Milwaukee Road was running 645 miles of electrified railroad between Montana and Tacoma, WA (there was a 216 mile stretch they operated on with steam locomotives). They ran it up until the 1970s!

This is so obviously how things should be done in psychiatry. These types of disease most certainly have some signals that can be collected and interpreted by an AI to offer a diagnosis. No idea why it is taking so long.
When you're one of the richest people in the world, and you're using your power to influence public opinion, having your already publicly available travel information posted online is not at all equivalent to doxxing.

Jesus.
This is based (or independently developed alongside) CV Dazzle, which makes it harder for algorithms to identify "human" features by obscuring the edges they rely upon.

The original Dazzle camouflage was effective against human eyes too, so there's a pretty high bar for making an algorithm dazzle-proof.
If there's anyone besides you who's confused, we haven't heard from them yet.

I searched "mainstream media" on DDG and got a number of definitions. Maybe you could try that.
>doxxing people and then publishing the info online?

His problem if he uses a means of transportation which, in real time, updates its location. The information is public anyway and it applies to everyone.

I really don't see how this is wrong.
It is complex, but that doesn't mean it's not malicious. Let's use a simpler example.

Sam runs a horse racing operation and allows you to place bets on horses. Before the race begins, Sam collects $1,000,000 from various people placing bets on the race. During the race, Sam runs across the street to the casino and puts the $1,000,000 he's holding on black at the roulette table. If he wins the bet, Sam plans to take the $2,000,000 back, pay off customers at his race track, and then walk away with an extra $1,000,000 in his pocket.

Unfortunately, it comes up red, and Sam walks out of the casino with nothing. Realizing he won't have money to pay his customers back, he tries to find someone who can buy his race track and take on the debt, but nobody wants to inherit a $1,000,000 debt.

This is malicious. Sam willfully defrauded customers. Yeah, it could have worked out, but it didn't, and nobody consented to risking their money on the roulette table.

Now change $1,000,000 to $10 billion and replace "race track" and "casino" with complex finance mumbo jumbo.

It also has lots of extensions too. Including vim!
I couldn't even say who's normal and who isn't.

Not so much fatigue as extreme anxiety. I keep trying to think of ways for creative professionals to use it as a tool, but of course the rewards that will go to creators (tiny compared to the rewards going to suits and engineers) will all go to the taylor swifts who already have a brand and can hoover up all the remaining value. Even then, the community that consumes the content seems to toxic that it will make the life of the creator who tries to make a living a living hell.
You could be right. But if this interview spree is a calculated move to avoid jail time, he's doing a truly awful job of it. But this wouldn't be the first time he did an awful job of something due to misjudging his own competence.
I think you are right. The valuation of Tesla is way too tight coupled to the popularity of Elon. And the later is not doing so well lately

Arch, i3, RSS sizes, only counting processes from logged-in user:

2.6 GB ungoogled-chromium (Browser)
150 MB kitty (Terminal)
50 MB udiskie (Automounter)
46 MB picom (Compositor)
36 MB pulseaudio (Sound)
26 MB gpaste-daemon (Copy Paste)
21 MB polybar (Bar on top of screen)

17 MB i3 (WM itself)

Plus a bunch of services below that, which at this point is only noise. If palemoon works for you as a browser, that will only use 320 MB RSS empty on startup.

Machine has 64 GB RAM, no idea if Chromium by design would eat less on less beefier machines. At 4 GB RAM, zRAM is certainly an option, if you can't or don't want to upgrade. Without such tweaking, modern Linux desktops profit from 8 GB RAM. No matter what WM or DE you run. Once you start a web browser, game over. ;-)
Sometimes the replacement is done with simple pattern matching. Try different forms of encoding you domain to see if you can get through their replacement.

Additionally, most "cvdazzle" results on Google images are trying to obscure the face, not the existence of a person. This research is apparently focused on preventing a person from being detected, not obscuring their face with weird patterns. Even then, the "cvdazzle" stuff that I'm seeing does not make it harder for me to tell there's a person there. It has the same effect of obscuring identity as a ski mask.
yeah but they're sweet and very cute, and funny...
Searching around I found aviation accounting for 2.5% of CO2 emissions and private jets accounting for 4% of it.

Meaning they comprise 0.1% of global emissions. Seems non trivial when you consider how few people this includes. At the very least it’s hardly infinitesimally small.
I'm not saying that Ghost should use the AGPL, I'm saying that this is a warning to other projects that use the MIT license and wouldn't want to see their work commercialized this way.

Tesla's market cap (~$500B) is still five times the combined value of GM and Ford (both ~$50B). There's a lot of air left in that bag.
The difference is that Communism promised to distribute power to the proletariat, but that has been a complete failure with every iteration. Globalization has improved economic efficiencies and dramatically increased the standard of living in Asia.

My friends that are interested in electric vehicles (and myself) are now much more interested in the traditional car manufacturers electric vehicles. My wife is eyeing the Cadillac Lyric instead.
Well, Tesla still has some of the "first mover advantage" left: they secured gigantic supply of batteries, other manufacturers might struggle to get their hands on sufficient quantities.

Do you mean you're selling as an intermediary and aren't holding stock yourself? What sort of industries does that happen in? I'd have thought for most B2C sales you'd hold inventory yourself (that's always been one thing putting me off starting an online shop).

Yep, I think that's exactly it.

In his mind, it's either

- do not do any interviews. The outcome is a 90% probability of life in prision

- do the interviews and try to shift public opinion to it being an accident. He knows he still has some influence over the media because of his past donations. Maybe 50% probability of life in prison if he can shift public opinion?
VW produces >400k EV this year. And that's about 5% of all cars they produced. And they are scaling up _fast_. Tesla has been an incredible first-mover and bootstrapper - but I do not see how they can keep their lead in the long run. It just is not that hard to build a decent EV anymore. Now it's all about processes, sourcing, quality control - stuff that traditional car makers have a lot of expertise in.
No, the highest level cannot be disabled.
I'd imagine the situation is the same for image generation models too.
This paints a very clear picture. Thanks.
I've run sway on most of my home hardware for 2-3 years which ranges from i7 4 core to Ryzen 4700 8 core with 16 GB RAM and all of my post-boot measurements hover in the 512-640 MB range.

I'm usually on arch but these numbers seem consistent from debian to fedora to arch. Sway deserves credit for managing IPC latency like a cloud provider manages RPC latency.

I miss the days when personal computers were near zero latency but sway is as good as it gets in that regard, which is why I'm a fan. There's a lot to learn from the sway design.
If you're trying to frame this as civil disobedience, the path forward is jail time, to get your day in court to protest some unfairness of the law. But these were lackeys of an ultra-wealthy guy accused of securities fraud and embezzlement. The deck is stacked in Ghosn's favor, and he threw his henchfolk under the bus. He knows well enough to stay out of reach of extradition: this was not just foreseeable, it was forseen. They took money to knowingly engage in conspiracy to a crime. Womp, womp.
This is fascinating, thank you.

"I am not fine with the military developing this and then considering it's use on service members."

This. The rights and protections you have in the military, as well as the military judicial system, are vastly different from the civilian world. I have very little confidence in even the civilian side (so many abuses and so much incompetence).
And indeed that one links to OP's article as an example of the original results it was investigating.
You have to know people will use it to rip off artists or you're too naive to be running this project.
Why did my comment get multiple downvotes, I can't work it out?
Ford's planning on building enough production capacity to ship 600k EVs per year by the end of next year, Hyundai/Kia are at 350k/year capacity now, GM is projecting "400k units between Q3 2022 and Q2 2024", VW is shipping 800k EVs in 2022. So all of the traditional autos have caught up.. granted some of those are bad, and many will flop, but as a worst case they're just producing their already popular cars in EV form factors which is a lot of competition to Tesla.
for much LESS money, not more, of course. Too late to edit

They were reported on.

The difference is that pre Musk this was a known practice used by Twitter.

But Musk has bought Twitter insisting that he won’t be “censoring”. Yet he is continuing the practices he decried but limiting them to people he personally doesn’t like.

I recently came across Tracy Marks' channel on YouTube [0].

I've been programming for a long time, but I only got neuropsych testing about 10 years ago. I was unambiguously diagnosed with ADHD, and I've been on stimulants ever since.

Despite all that personal experience, I still found that her ADHD videos connected a lot of dots for me. The videos also give some practical advice that's working well for me.

TIL, makes sense from a (very limited) security perspective.

CDN caching was never that useful anyway, non-cached jQuery etc downloads fast these days. Publishing libraries on a centralized public CDN, where the same URL is used across different sites is still the primary value prop for jsDelivr regardless.
I dunno, but I just looked at the pictures, got the gist of it, and closed the tab.
The location of every plane that flies in the US (99.99999999%) is public data. If you want to take your big old metal tube up in the air, then you abide by the rules set forth by the party in charge of the air. We, as a society, have decided that those planes have an ID and if that plane wants to enter the air, then they agree to be tracked. That's the terms of service. There is no privacy violation.
Thanks for the shout-out, Andreas!
Well it certainly beats the record the RNZAF have for keeping an Orion aloft for 21.5 hours - although that was with no resupply.
> looking for an excuse.

> not wanting to acknowledge that there might be something wrong with me

I had a similar mindset about a diagnosis. Here is why I changed my mind:

The purpose of the diagnosis is to guide a course of actions that may improve your life and that of the people around you. It is the opposite of an excuse because getting help is good for you and others. You need never disclose to anyone that a diagnosis affects you but it can be helpful for others to understand some characteristics about you.

ADHD (and many conditions) isn't something wrong with anyone. It is a term for a cluster of cognitive/behavior differences in the area known as "executive function." [0] These difference can be thought of like height or eyesight in that they can be [dis]advantageous or not and they can be compensated for or not.

The choice to go on the road of self discovery is your own. As far as I can tell there is nothing to lose and much to gain.

It might not explicitly be what SRI is meant for but it'll narrow the proxy's options to:

A. Blank page

B. Let the find and replace update the CSS. Generate new hashes in the HTML.

C. Find someone new to pick on.

B is time and potentially computationally expensive, so it makes C a better option.

I have converged to a single (compound) criterion:

"Who are going to be accountable for my professional well-being?"

This encodes inside that I have partners in the organization, whose success is associated with mine, and who have at least some of the ingredients to make things work; indeed it also includes the assumption that success is even possible.

As time goes by, I learnt to reject everything besides that - fancy words, supposed interest, money, etc.

The question of jurisdiction is interesting. Technically FTX was not operating in the US or for US citizens but, as I understand, there were many workarounds. FTX US did operate in the US, but I'm not sure how fucked they are relative to the main FTX exchange.

It's also notable that FTX customers (at least the "in-crypto-for-the-ideology" ones) and investors wanted this. They wanted a financial system that was out of the reach of the US legal system - none of them had a problem dealing with an exchange that was based in the Bahamas for legal reasons until the whole thing fell apart. So it's interesting to hear so many calls for SBF's arrest by US authorities.
Tesla has never been a bargain .This did not stop it from going up 100x. I don't think Amazon has ever been cheap either.
Yup. The chattiness is to account for distributed databases, so you can spread the result set across multiple instances.

That said there is a proposal for base Flight RPC to help allow embedding small results directly into the first response, that mostly needs someone to draft a prototype and push it through. (That doesn't help the case of a large-ish response from a single backend, though; that may also need some work, if we want to get rid of the second request.)
Tweet-by-tweet elaboration:

1 & 2: "substack is powered by ghost"

A customer of substack is using a port of an open source ghost theme.

3: some screenshots

Of the substack sourcecode showing that they're loading an open source ghost JS search UI library from the jsdelivr CDN service.

Substack are using an open source front-end lib that the Ghost team open sourced. For other people to use.

4. Screenshots of the substack HTML sourcecode showing the classes are the same as ghost

Because they're using an open source theme ported from ghost...

6 & 7. Substack are loading the open source library from "Ghost’s own CDN"

First I've heard that Ghost have acquired Jsdelivr.

8. "directly loading scripts from our CDN on their platform is very bad for security [...] Any updates or changes we ship could inadvertently brick their whole platform"

I actually do agree that using 3rd party CDNs like Jsdelivr is bad for security (supply chain attacks are a real pain with package managers, using other people's CDNs increase that pain significantly). But... it's not Ghost's CDN & the implication that Ghost could push a release of their open source JS lib to jsdelivr that would brick consumers is pretty sinister.

9. Substack are using MIT without attribution

They're not. Already covered by multiple comments on HN & in the Twitter replies. John just doesn't understand how the MIT license he chose works.

Tbh he doesn't really seem to understand how open source works in general.

---

Note: large companies using open source code and not contributing back is a big problem. It's what Substack are doing and we should talk about it. But that conversation should be informed and fact-based. This thread is ignorance start to finish.
When ChatGPT Goes Wrong – 3 Examples
One can be more specific about likes and dislikes. I dislike racists. I dislike people who think trans and gay people should be invisible. I dislike religious bigots. I dislike fascists. I dislike White supremacists. I dislike members of brown shirt gangs. Those kinds of social pathologies are always a bundle deal. It's never just one of those things.

Dislikes can be pretty weak, but still should be observed by operators of commercial spaces. Monks in robes passing out flowers might be pretty innocuous, except for the whole religious cult thing, but if you're a store owner you don't want them in the mall. Brown shirts are a lot worse.
Sure. This is a reasonable analogy.

I simply think that he started from an a priori belief that a) he is brilliant, and therefore b) ideas he comes up with are similarly brilliant, thus c) this idea is brilliant.

It wasn't.

That said, I don't think it should matter whether or not he came into this plan with an intent to defraud or if he mistakenly thought this was a foolproof investment strategy. The man is guilty as all hell and ought to face consequences for the outcome regardless of intent. I just think it's amazing to watch him continually try and explain how brilliant and complicated this idea was and how a few small mistakes brought him down while it's actually pretty simple to understand at a high level what happened and this outcome was virtually guaranteed from the start.
Some people like Sabine Hossenfelder disagree. They think MOND could be a better fit for observations than Dark Matter.
I knew he did some things people didn't like, but I didn't know he was promoting fascist conspiracy theories. Could you give examples?
All of the below is according to theory, not claiming it to be true.

Because DM passes right through itself it doesn't clump like the stuff that made our planets do. Instead it remains spread out bound by gravity but not clumping. That makes it incredibly diffuse. But space is also quite big, so it can still contribute a lot of mass.
I remember reading about this flight when I was a kid - it's truly impressive that they were able to overcome the challenges they faced and complete the flight successfully. The fact that their record still stands today is a testament to their determination and hard work. Great stuff!
EV production volume is mostly limited by battery production. Manufacturers have been ramping that up so EV production should follow.

- earn or learn. where the learn relates to how familiar the industry is for me. worked in banking, gambling and now logistics and there is a learning curve, even though the job description is the same. earn has to be the same I'm making now.

- size of the company. worked in orgs from 200 to 4000 employees. I get lost in the org chart somewhere. I think my sweet spot is in the 400-600. there's also significantly less bullshit in smaller sized companies.

- home office flexibility. If I'm juggling sick kids at home, I want to be able to NOT show up at the office and spare me the commute for a month without any explanations.

- location. I actually like going to the office couple of times a week. if I don't have to spend an hour getting there, I know I will.

- has to be an international company. I'm an immigrant and I'd rather be with some like me. also attracts different kind of locals, more open minded.

you take a leap of faith with coworkers and company culture. I peek in kununu.com or glassdoor to see what others comment about it, but it's almost always a leap of faith.
I like it!

Musk buying twitter is a big improvement because now that it is owned by someone that is an acceptable target, the public is finally learning about what social media companies do as an unintentional byproduct of the media lobbing shots at him.
Why does elon need to travel? To be present with his employees during a hack-a-thon?

We live in an era where anyone can have a video call with someone on the other side of the planet (I do this regularly with our india team). What large business needs their CEO physically at a location?
Some people prefer it because of the buying experience. They're not on the top of my list (I prefer a PHEV), but I am absolutely dreading going to a showroom. Many of my friends say the same thing (and in a recent HN thread, [1] I saw lots of people commenting on how awful the typical car-buying experience is).

Some people probably can't get Musk out of their head whenever they see a Tesla. But the company has an independent brand as well, so many people just associate it with EVs, environmentalism, fast cars, etc.
