It is indeed a very silly argument, even one going as far as to stopping their friends from buying a Tesla due to his handling of Twitter. [0] By that logic, everyone should stop buying a VW due to its founder being Hitler. It makes no sense.

As you said, one can give him credit for the push for electric vehicles with Tesla, but you can also critique him on the incompleteness of FSD which Musk continued to over-promise dates of robo-taxis, advertising FSD to Level 5 SAE safety when it is admittedly Level 2 [1]. Other than that, Tesla vehicles are just fine.

I have not seen this chaos with SpaceX which is another safety critical company. Perhaps we are already seeing where the line is being drawn on the unbiased enforcement of the Terms of Service which is what I am seeing here on Twitter rather than before, it was slanted and applied to a select group.

This time, it is clear that it applies and is enforced on everyone, journalist or not, celebrities and bots and as for the over coverage of the matter is of course fuelling the outrage machine that the news needs for more eyeballs. Just like how Twitter didn't immediately collapse, it isn't going anywhere either.

Space debris expert: Orbits will be lost and people will die – later this decade
You're afraid, I get it. So am I. We'll all die someday. So will everyone and everything, at some point. It's not good or bad. It's not a matter of faith or ideology. It's scary and we don't want it and we fight it with everything we got. That's also a part of being alive.

I'm just concerned with the possibility of us "winning over death" and how it would transform everything. It's not another cure for an illness or another 100 years to live. It's no one ever going away without someone else making them. For better or worse. That's not a part of life. That's an entirely different existence.
can... this "dummy monitor" be used in windows by some other method? not exactly the same command obviously but a way to expose display on a headless system without using those dummy hdmi plugs?
I don't know the answer to the WebRTC part, but as long as you have a server with not-outrageously-priced outbound bandwidth, you can install an open source RTMP server like SRS[1], and stream to that RTMP server from OBS. It's really easy, configure the RTMP server & stream key, then "Start Streaming" which is right next to "Start Recording". You can then hand your friends a link, and they can play it in any media player with RTMP/HLS/FLV stream support, or you can add a simple web UI with e.g. hls.js[2] (very easy to write, there might even be prepackaged solutions) so that they truly don't need to download anything.

Tech has caught up! We need more
bloat, web devs!
> Is this a problem now only because people you like are targeted?

Yes, this is exactly the problem but in the opposite direction you are implying.

Musk believed that Twitter blocking the sharing of an article about ToS breaking behavior was worthy of the “Twitter Files” when the story was bad for his political opponent, but he thinks it is fine when the story is bad for him. It shows that he has no actual principled beliefs. He simply is acting in his own best interest.

Odds are people would be more willing to accept Elon’s rules if Elons’s rules weren’t a constantly moving target of whatever benefits him the most at this exact moment.
Great. Now, when will we get glasses that don't get scratched up when you wipe them without rinsing them first?
SpaceX pays significantly higher than NASA if you believe levels.fyi, so I think it depends what industry average you are using. If you compare to general software engineering then it certainly pays less, but that is because there are many talented engineers happy to take a pay cut to work on something they find personally motivating (space exploration).
The difference is that bodily autonomy is good, actually.

The meta level is the last refuge of the scoundrel. Most arguments are best evaluated at the object level.
He absolutely can but he’s going to get called out as a hypocrite when he acts like one.

Internet nutjobs or people who have lost money investing in Tesla seem like more likely candidates to come after him.
There may be dozens of similarly profund discoveries being made in Indian institutions but we wouldn't hear about them simply because they wouldn't be reported in English or talked about in places like HN.
I am a classical clarinet player, a Physicist and a programmer. Music theory is ridicously easy in confront to everything STEM I've studied. It isn't even a paragon: the counterintuitiveness of Physics, the abstractions, the rigor of thinking needed was really stressfull to my mind while music theory was... underwhelming to say the least.
> 1 in 9000 doses reportedly results in a SAE, so if you are mandated to take 4 doses, your risk becomes ~0.04% or ~1/2500.

That sounds like motivated bad assumptions.

Seems highly plausible that those who would get the reaction in the 1/9000 would select out the sensitive individuals so the rate would be less for subsequent shots on the other 8999. It seems very unlikely it will be a constant rate.

Anecdotally, I had the same reaction to all four shots. Mild symptoms the lasting 24 hours. With your comment’s assumption that’s pretty statistically unlikely, statistically it would have been likely that one would have been less or more, since by your comments logic it’s completely random.
Journalism is a fundamental part of a well-functioning society.

> Poetry struck me as one of those 80% solutions that might get in the way of a 100% solution. I used it for a number of little projects and felt it was good enough but my analysis was that its dependency resolution strategy was pretty slow and that I didn't believe it was 100% correct.

I think part of the problem is that almost all the solutions in the Python ecosystem (yours included if, like you say, you ever need to deploy it) are 80% solutions. It's just each one handles a different 80% of the problem. The last company I worked at also has a reasonable solution involving manual venvs and a bit of scripting on the side that worked fine until we ran into a bug that we couldn't reproduce for ages because one of our dependencies had randomly updated at some point, and we had no way of locking them. 80% fine, 20% a nightmare that I never want to touch again with a bargepole. Even looking through this thread, most people are suggesting solutions with enormous caveats to practical use.

In Poetry's defence, I think the 80% that it caters for tends to be a pretty good 80% for the majority of people, so it's still a good recommendation if you're setting up a new project that's not going too far outside the norms. But I think the 80% thing is definitely a valid criticism of it and most of the rest of the Python packaging ecosystem.
One of my HS math teachers would regularly change seating arrangements based on the idea that it helps thinking and problem solving.
not that I'm aware, sorry. (it's only a short story)
I just like efficient systems, both programming and organizational. Having bloat so to speak just annoys me.

Making open source tools is not something I'd consider bloat, I'm talking more about those in the book Bullshit Jobs by David Graeber.

Having fewer people also leads to people achieving more, ie one company with 1000 employees versus n companies that are 1/n the size, I'd say the smaller companies are much more likely to produce innovations that are useful for society as a whole.

There are multiple issues here and people can be upset about some while not being upset about all of them. Musk specifically Saif he would not ban the account that reports on his jets location. He then changed his mind and the account was banned. Journalists reported the ban and were themselves banned for their reporting.

Personally, while I think banning the jet location account is hypocritical I don't have a serious problem with it. I do have a problem with banning journalists reporting on the ban.
>The sad fact is that we have enough software developers in America to fully meet all of every American companies technical needs; The problem is that these companies don't want to meet the market demands of that labor pool by paying what that market is asking to keep that sustainable, so they want to import people who they can abuse to temporarily lower labor prices for them.

This is a bogus self-serving argument that is offered by many entitled "American programmers" who want wage hyperinflation. Tech workers are among the highest paid professions anywhere, and still people like you complain about wage suppression, ha! How self-serving & entitled of you.

There is 100%+ employment in tech, and the people "looking for work" you speak of, wouldn't even pass a basic programming test and unemployable IMO.
> Cars still need physical buttons for critical control systems and systems that consumers need to control often (radio, climate control, windshield wipers, cruise control, etc.).

Radio - volume and track control are physical, more technical stuff can be done by voice or simple touch screen touches. For folks who say “I don’t do voice, but I demand physical controls”, I humbly suggest that using voice is safer than anything physical in terms of maintaining focus on the road.

Climate control - voice or simple, easy-to-access touch controls.

Windshield wipers - physical or voice, voice or touch to adjust if necessary. “Auto” makes can make this a set it and forget it feature.

Cruise control - physical

Hasn’t added much? India used to be a hotbed for science , especially numerical and mechanical science in the old pre-industrial age.

https://www.indiatimes.com/technology/11-ancient-inventions-...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Indian_inventions_and_...

Even in the modern era, the country has done tons of important research especially in medical fields.

This is also disregarding the work of Indians who did a ton of amazing research outside India.

But otherwise, if your question is why they haven’t contributed as much in a relative sense versus western countries, maybe you’ve forgotten, but India has been subjugated for many centuries, under various rules. The Mughals, the British, the Dutch, etc…

It’s one of the youngest countries today if you count from when it gained freedom. It took many decades for it to be financially stable and regain much of the infrastructure needed to compete with the west.

So as an Indian myself, I’d urge you to put your countries history in context instead of putting it to some ancient texts locking it away.
Honestly this is scary. Someone with a lot of power and sway over speech and other things getting paranoid that people are after him, and lashing out at any perceived threat is scary.

It would be scary if he didn't have half the power he currently holds.
Cities are more accountable (the same city had a rule against vegetable gardens in front lawns and a citizen got it overturned without having to get themselves elected IIRC) and are much less likely to overstep their bounds into arbitrary aethetic rules. No need for an extra layer of bureaucracy at least.
ChatGPT – Release Notes (Dec 15)
But in this particular case there is a lawsuit that says he is not doing his job. This isn't a micromanger checking door access logs for every employee, this is a manager saying "X isn't getting his work done and there are rumors he's not even showing up. Check the logs."
Another thing that hasn't gotten enough research is the effectiveness of the latest booster for someone who was vaccinated earlier and got omicron (this is a pretty big cohort). It's genuinely hard to make a recommendation one way or another on it because it's not clear how effective it is after four prior exposure events, and it has to be weighed against the risk of side effects like this.

Your comment history says otherwise.

> thinks the mandates violate all traditional bioethical norms

Mandatory vaccination has been the norm in many developed countries since at least the polio vaccine…

> there is a very real danger we are causing large scale subclinical heart damage to children by administering this drug so widely. In other words, it should not be mandatory.

But in what country is the vaccine mandatory for children again?

> and is being used to gloss over an immense amount of truly horrible stuff that happened during the vaccination campaign of 2021.

But you won't tell what this very «truly horrible stuff» is, will you? And what was the purpose of the conspiracy according to you? Big pharma making money? (why give vaccines then, when remdesivir is 3 orders of magnitude more expensive than the vaccine?) Or more fancy hypothesis like 5G tracking chips or masse sterilization of white population to replace them with immigrants?
I know that, but GNOME support on FreeBSD and OpenBSD wasn't frictionless either. They just took care of it a lot faster/sooner. A ton of work has gone into getting GNOME working on both FreeBSD and OpenBSD as well as it does from some developers on the GNOME project and FreeBSD and OpenBSD developers helping out too. Just because it doesnt appear to be as big of a problem today, doesn't mean it never was.

I'm not defending him. I am a vocal Musk critic. I'll edit my comment to try to make that more clear.

ETA: After taking a stab at it, I feel like the strength of my comment is in it's empathy to Musk; I feel that turning up the volume on it's criticism would damage it's purpose of expanding the critique from Musk to the systems that enabled him. I think the sibling comment with the Caro quote does a better job than I'd do with an edit, so I've upvoted that comment and left mine as is.

If you have any suggestions though, I'm listening & willing to incorporate them.

ETA2: I've also added a quote to make it clearer why I felt this was relevant to the parent comment.
As a protocol RDP is way ahead of VNC. The latest versions support H264 video encoding and AAC audio. With a beefy Windows server and FreeRDP as a client, I can stream 1080P YouTube from a remote desktop over the Internet at 60FPS. RFX progressive encoding isn't bad either. The trouble with FreeRDP, at least the older versions, is that you have to explicitly enable these features. I tested VNC in this setup, and it was unusable, about 1s frame rate. Something about this multi-monitor setup just doesn't play well with the VNC software that I tested--x11vnc server and tigervnc client, and I have used those often in other scenarios.

Unfortunately, there was no way to make the _full_ extension work with only activeTab, as we have some functionality that is incompatible (one such example: if you open up a page you've previously saved and highlighted in Reader, we show your highlights overlaid on it seamlessly).

That being said, we do want to make another version of the extension that works for more privacy conscious folks, and will defs use activeTab for that! Just requires a little more engineering effort.

I totally understand the request though, privacy is super important. All extension data stays local on your device unless you actively press the extension button to save a page/content. You'd have to read our source code and network requests to confirm this right now, of course.

H-1B workers, look around you. This is the top comment here. Imagine for a second that you support a union. When you take your seat at the union meeting, someone like this sits down on your left, on your right, in front of you, and behind you.

Imagine you provide a tech union with manpower. Who do you think will hold the reins? You or some guy like this? Will you arm them so that they can execute on what they dream of?

Consider carefully what a union of people like this can do. Consider carefully what you will support. In the end, they have themselves to look after.
