> No one wants that. We want separated bike lanes. I also don't see why this angers drivers, you should want it too because now there's no cyclists on your car road. Everyone wins.

The reason why you don't see why this "angers" drivers, is because it doesn't. No driver is angered by a bicyclist on their own road not interfering with the flow of traffic. Drivers are angered by cyclists that impede the flow of traffic and create safety hazards (yes, mostly for themselves) by having a bicycle share the road with a 2000 pound steel car going twice the speed. Move cyclists to a grade separated lane and no one will be bothered.

The problem is the population of bicyclists is large enough to support such an infrastructure project in only a few places. Whereas the cost of laying down a white strip of paint is sufficiently cheap that it can be done in many more places. So it boils down to money.

Arguing that cyclists pay taxes which are used to fund roads and so should have this major infrastructure project funded just for them (if they can direct their taxes this way, will they promise to never to drive a car? Are other people allowed to dedicate their tax funds to support projects just for them? Can childless people opt out of funding public schools and instead fund special centers just for them?) -- is not going to work. Public spending is about pooled resources and public benefits. Everyone benefits from roads -- e.g. even the bicyclists purchase goods shipped to them via roads. Roads allow the economy to function so that bikes can be produced and purchased, etc. At the same time, one can argue that cars benefit from cyclists who reduce traffic. These things are sorted out via a political process -- as a result of power, not some kind of mathematical algorithm.

Gain political power and you will gain the power to have these types of infrastructure funds directed for your group, otherwise it wont happen. That means cyclists need to win over the rest of the public whose representatives vote on these matters -- which up to this point is not something cyclists have been interested or capable of doing -- e.g. having good public relations and outreach to other taxpayers who aren't cyclists. Cyclists have an image problem with the rest of the public, which results in their political power being disproportionately small. That is why, in most places, all they get is the white strip of paint.
weird, wasn't the case here.

As with most "medical" discussions online, something like being "good for your body part" rapidly turns into anything other than scientific medical evidence. Much like how its impossible to discuss something like diet scientifically online.

The fad aspect should not be overlooked. Originally, "light mode" GUIs on CRTs was something of a fools errand because most CRTs are somewhat non-linear so light mode emphasized waviness and interference patterns and outright astigmatism. Occasionally "light mode" was a bragging point that your hardware could handle it and your GUI was designed to cooperate with the limited hardware of the day (think original 80s 90s apples). Around the turn of the century "light mode" became a financial status symbol that you can afford a "perfect" LCD display, so only the coolest people used light mode. Now, 2010 is too old to be stylish so obviously the opposite of light mode is "dark mode" and that is the pinnacle of style because it proves you're using something designed or redesigned post 2015 or so. Just the usual conspicuous consumption oneupsmanship.

Another aspect rarely mentioned is distraction / ADD / working conditions. Obviously dark mode on a glossy screen provides something of a perfect mirror to see your surroundings which is usually distracting to normal people in normal conditions. For those with ADD or easily distracted in a tightly packed open office its practically an ADA issue to force them to use dark mode. If I must have a glossy screen I find it vastly less distracting to use light mode. Turn up the brightness so its not the brightest thing in the room but its brighter than the endlessly moving reflections on the screen and light mode looks pretty good.
>They make it extremely hard to withdraw money

This might be true for Binance.us (seperate, smaller entity), I don't know but definitely isn't true for actual Binance. A few chains have occasional to frequent ~1 day deposit/withdrawal pauses but waiting a day isn't the same as it being extremely hard (and even in those cases you can convert to something else and withdraw that).
Can you even downvote on new accounts?
For me even with blue light blockers it's still too bright if my room is dark at night. When I turn it off (e.g. when the red intensity is very high for color quality in games) and switch to a light web page it's blinding.
“Science” is such an empty word, though. “Knowledge” and “research” are more concrete, and you can always ask whether knowledge is reliable and where its limit lie, and whether research is trustworthy.

1. The FED isn’t a government institution. That’s part of the problem.

2. In my opinion, a PhD doesn’t make your more qualified inherently. How often do candidates fail their qualifying exam or defense and never return? (Hint very few).

Take a step back and ask what the alternatives are? Prior to the 3rd central bank of the US the government was effectively fine. But it couldn’t print money, it had to collect it via taxes. This limited taxes and government spending.

Now… it’s basically a constant tax called inflation; much of which we export.

Childlike is indeed the term, especially strange is the appeal that "Nerd shouldn't be bullies, we're the good guys".

In any case, it's yet another example of a counter-outrage, where the first 'outrage' could as well be a few tweets as most.
Right now the dollar is increasing in value but Ray Dallio makes the case[0][1] that eventually we will have to drop rates low again and "monetize the debt" which is to say, print too much money inflating the value of the dollar and then pay the debt off with that

This could lead to the dollar no longer being the reserve currency which would have other, much stranger implications.

Today debt payments rival military spending but there is a point where debt service becomes greater than GDP. Before that there are points of unsustainability that will likely be reached.

One possibility is that inflation will be tamed before then and the fed can lower rates. This seems unlikely to me.

Another possibility might be austerity measures and deep political compromise to pay down the debt to levels that are sustainable during high rates, this also feels quite unlikely to me.

I think it is more intuitive for the people used to android (not sure about iOS, can't be too sure it has been to much time I have been using it). On android most quick configuration parameters such as luminosity is accessed by sliding the upper part of the screen which do not have a cog icon either and a similar appearance to that gnome systrayish area.

My biggest critics is that those controls aren't afaik directly accessible with a keyboard shortcut ( super + something) while said controls can, like many things in gnome, perfectly be navigated with a keyboard.

I haven't seen for age laptops and even standalone keyboards that do not have either dedicated buttons or function keys to manage luminosity though and can't think of any good reason to use the mouse to do that.

A contract of employment is a contract for time. Giving up the hours is all that is required.

It's the job of capitalists to extract value from that time. If they do they get paid. If they don't they go bust.

The number of 'artificial jobs' is entirely in the gift of capitalists. If they don't like them, all they have to do to make them go away is hire the people's time and use it better.

If they can't do that in aggregate, then they lose out until they do. That's how the stabilisation works.
When I had refractory major depression it felt like a terminal illness. I often hoped I'd get hit by a car or someone would kill me in a mugging. When you're depressed, people also often treat you like you have leprosy. However, now I struggle to empathize with others who are going through the same thing.

Thankfully I found medication and life changes that worked, especially moving to a sunny climate. I also recommend sobriety, it stops a vicious cycle with depression and dependence.
You need to be above a certain karma threshold, but it's not high (500 or so).
There are diminishing returns after some duration of work. Whether it's 2, 6 or 10 hours at some point you get worse at it.

Diminishing returns is not zero though. There's another period after that threshold where you can still build working stuff, either slower or more carefully or choosing simpler things.

Then the third stage where everything you do makes things worse.

Whether that middle block is better spent working or doing something else comes down to opportunity cost and time. It's easy to write it off as "getting a bit sloppy now, time to stop", but that does mean lower total output.
> Downvoting feels like censorship to me.

It is. As is upvoting, since it makes the unvoted and down voted harder to see.

I do not understand why people think this "mob rule" of up and down voting will end up with the "best" things being selected. It will only be the most common/neutral things being brought to our attention.

Unpopular ideas are not wrong, just unpopular. Just ask Copernicus.

OpenAi just recently created a Diplomacy player. Not just managing the pieces on the board, but also negotiating with other players--all in natural language. The programmed ended up in the first few places of a large tournament, but amazingly none of the other players had catched on to the fact that they were playing an AI.

It seems then that nothing is to stop such a program from interaction to further other goals. Even if an audio conversation is beyond it, it can send me messages on my Instagram, LinkedIn, and what have you. It may try to convince me of whatever message the highest bidder wants me convinced of. That this may not succeed in all cases, or even most cases makes little difference. Gaining a 5% advantage will sway most elections.

Think about that for a second. From now on: whenever you talk to someone online, that you haven't vetted in real life before, you cannot be sure that it is an actual person. Soon, it will be likely that it is not a real person.
Neither technology or luddism is inherently bad. Technology is bad when it causes bad outcomes. And the generous interpretation of luddism is that it's about working against bad outcomes of technology.

Show HN: Train your own image generator (Stable Diffusion) for free
I've had a blast playing with stable diffusion and I see all the potential it will bring to us. I released a service for training your model, just upload 20-30 images and you can have a model of someone or some object doing anything. You can train one model for free a month in a slower queue or you can train many models on a fast queue and with other features for a fee. Here is an example of using it for show product placement: https://app.88stacks.com/image/O6kReClOvrz7 and here is an example of using it for people: https://app.88stacks.com/image/nOpdvCwx6kb7

That's the usual way to read it, yes. The point is that you can then ask it e.g. to "find a tuple where x > y", and later expressions will be evaluated only for tuples that meet this condition.

In logic programming it's known as the "generate and test" pattern, where you declare the tuple and the program logically generates all its possible values, and then tests each value for compliance. The runtime usually will ensure to make this in an efficient way.

P.S. See the definition of the "amb" operator in typical logic programming languages:

Honestly this could be the silver lining of ChatGPT. Some people trust the answers of random commenters on the internet for anything from how things work technically to medical advice. Having an ever-increasing chance that any given commenter literally knows nothing except how to string words together might break that habit.
Point the finger at congress, not NASA. Orion itself appears to be a pretty good craft. The SLS being a boondoggle is of course true, but it’s something most engineers inside NASA accept to some degree (that was my experience). It is definitely a shame that the agency’s budget is so hamstrung by the development and procurement costs of SLS. Nobody will be happier than NASA when spacex eats ULA’S lunch and can provide them cheap lunar access.
That LSEG-MS partnership is not a speculation but a detail mentioned in the news report:

"LSEG has a contractual agreement over the 10-year period to spend a minimum of $2.8 billion on cloud-related products with Microsoft"

I'm guessing that this 4% stake is possibly LSEG's payment to MS in equity, but it's a guess, it's not presented this way in the item.

If the central bank doesn't set a rate, then the interbank rate will drift to zero - because money is near costless to produce and no chance of non-payment because there is only one central bank in a currency and central bank money can't go anywhere else.

That doesn't stop the rate for lending to businesses being higher than that because there is a risk of non-payment there. There is more than one commercial bank.

Every form of money has its 'own' rate. There is no One Interest Rate to Rule Them All - contrary to neoliberal myth.
It moved the comment you were reading up the list making it more likely you see it (or down/less)… unless you read all the comments on HN. (Or maybe read from the bottom up?)
There are more doubts I have with their methodology: "A VM will get a 16GB disk drive, [..] 128MB of VRAM". These seem byzantine and may trigger all sorts of behavior that isn't tested for or should be tested for.

Also, memory consumption is measured with `free`, which is even more evidence that not just the DE is measured, but the entire system. They only test Fedora Spins, but that is no assurance the rest of the config is identical between them.

Something about lies and statistics ;) If the proof of the pudding is in the eating, then simply use the DEs of your choice for a while and see what's optimal for you. Don't do silly things like measure memory consumption with `free` on a VM once, and draw general conclusions.

Why would an indie studio working every hour they have be expected to outcompete an established company with unionised engineers?

Mostly using the keyboard for all appropriate tasks (contrary to typewriters you don't need much force to push a key) and place it in a comfortable distance for you, using a TrackPoint, a digitizer pen and tablet, using a bigger or smaller mouse appropriate for your hand and of course do something other with you're hand.

The country still has relevance as it acts as a kind of "brand". Different Countries have different culture, history and preferences, resulting in different plots and characters. Artists know that, and often adapt according to the country they are working toward. This allows people to better choose their preferred "flavor" of content.

Though, this is just at the moment the case. It would be better to find some way to name those flavors independent of the country, to remove the underlining problems that sometimes spread in such setups.
Upvoting is just as censoring as downvoting is, which is to say, it's not censorship at all. "Free speech" does not mean that all speech is equally valuable. Some speech is worthless noise, and recognizing that is the only way to have useful discourse in an open forum.
