I'm not at all a biblical scholar or anything but iirc there are two reasons one historical one theological. The hebrew and aramaic of the old testament had the distinction between singular and plural second person pronouns but without the hierarchy/formality distinction. Later languages did have that, so translating into them using the singular also gave the connotation of familiarity that eventually became accepted.

And then, in the gospels christ instructs his followers to pray to god intimately, when he gives them the lord's prayer. It's giving explicit permission to address god as a personal relation: you can call THE LORD daddy now.

In that context it makes sense to use the informal/intimate form, basically reconciling what was probably the earlier usage anyway. It's unclear to me if pre-christian jews would have considered themselves to have this level of intimacy with god. Actually it's unclear to me whether contemporary jews or muslims do for that matter.

In french it's a pretty subtle social practice to know which to use in any given situation. There are a lot of situations where it's pretty obvious or firm but others where it's flexible or depends on specifics of context. It's also a moving target since social norms like this are always changing.

Software developers don't go to work in the morning to physically hold together the microservices they once programmed.

My entire team could stop working tomorrow, and it would probably take months before things start to seriously break. Now if you're trying to code up a bunch of new features at the same time, and basically the entire world knows your security team just quit, the story is probably a bit different.
How to host a Mastodon instance on AWS
Step by step instructions to automate the creation of a Mastodon instance on AWS with Release.
No it doesn't. But that's fine, it's not the point of a distro to teach you about interrupts and syscalls and all that nonsense, the point of a distro is to give you software to install. That said, Gentoo does do a good job of teaching you how annoying it is to try and figure out exactly which kernel options you need to activate to get a working system. I always run out of patience before I get it working, though (yes, I know about make localmodconfig).
The whole world needs this. Especially with the absolutely terrifying North Carolina incident.

Green energy is no longer just about the green, we need decentralization to protect against people who don't want us to have electricity at all.

When we finally move on from lithium, maybe they'll start requiring battery backups too.

Binance liquidity displayed is still less than they extracted from FTX before they crashed. They took 2.5B just in payout from SBF. Binance could have literally have had 0$ in backing before this and still managed the current situation. So again, nothing that is currently public, nothing at all, would suggest that Binance is any different from the FTX scam. They could very easily do an audit if it’s not a scam, but they didn’t they hired a company who refused to do anything more than sign a document saying “using the process Binance prescribed, we saw this number which Binance told us we would see”. There are so many red flags that its difficult how anyone could not be entirely convinced that it’s just another scam.

But this is crypto so maybe they’ll keep it going for another half a decade before it implodes.
If by 'mass of the earth', you only count the solid parts, yes. But in the astronomical/gravitational sense, it includes the atmosphere. When things are burned, carbon is combined with oxygen to form carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is plant food: photosynthesis converts it into sugar, and plants transform that into other forms of solid carbon. Given enough time, it forms wood, oil, coal, etc.[0]

When will it affect gravitational forces? Almost never. Earth's mass is only truly lost when rockets, satellites, and other ejecta leave the gravity well, and the slow stripping away of the atmosphere.[1]

And what is a grift? It is not like he is forcing you to buy his card everytime you fart...
I don’t think society is in decline but my best friend is a university teacher and if you allow me an anecdote it’s become obvious to him in the past five years that first year students are less and less familiar with the written world and increasingly good with images and videos as a medium of communication. The shift seems real.

Long works of literature were always fairly niche. If you read the articles you will see that bestsellers are going from short to shorter rather a decline in the publication of long novels.
I listened to news in the morning, so was expecting to see a discussion on HN but could not find anything on first 3 pages.

"From the last 90 submissions there seem to be >5% about Elon / Twitter. Why is everybody submissing stuff about that?" this has to be a joke. A major tech company is taking some insane actions, laying off employees, saying Twitter now allows free speech then banning journalists......ITS A POPULAR TOPIC, hence, the submissions.
That’s still the case today, even though the base charge is now $500/incident. I always get a refund.
"Beyond his tweets" which happen multiple times a day, presumably by him directly, and engaging in shitty witless culture war banter.

Marketing in the loosest of terms, if trolling counts.

Listen, we're talking opinion here. I don't know what you stand for. You haven't directly taken a stance on whether you think his time is well spent, you are just trying to state that no one has a right to judge it, or doesn't have enough info to judge it.

I do think I have enough info, with my own eyes, to see that his behavior is poor and that whatever time he is spending on twitter is time wasted. Marketing? Self-sabotage.

It is way more boring than this site (which is literally devoted to fearmongering about Trump) makes it out to be. Trump loves cash. He loves being in the spotlight. He keeps drumming up these "big announcements." Everybody "knows" that he's going to run in 2024. And maybe he will. But once he does that, he's subject to regulations. And he hates regulations, especially the ones that interfere with his ability to make money.

So he's doing an NFT grift. It's a spectacle. We all learned in 2016, or should have, that he's completely shameless and every scandal pumps up his base. Duh. This keeps him in the spotlight, pulling in cash without attracting the attention of the FEC. The details are irrelevant, except the salacious ones -- "no news is bad news."
I'm a bit perplexed by your comments (and a sibling one) who seems to take great ire (offense?) to a comment that take a part out of the linked article that I personally found "Hillarious".

>How about this: can you point to any part of the study which is improper or wrong or looks like this bias may have affected it?

The comment that I commented on did exactly this; did you expect me to recite that part?
I get your criticism if I directly commented on the article, but I merely commented on the additional detail already presented in a comment. (or are you suggesting that a requirement for finding something hilarious is a thoroughly analyzed rebuttal on top of an existing criticism?)

Also, again, I didn't make any argument, but a comment of a quote (observation) presented in the source material linked by parent comment.

so I'd suggest take a step back, read the two comments, ask yourself "what context am I willfully ignoring and putting word in to the commenters mouth"

Thanks for your opinion though, interesting fact about politics and al gore

Just to be clear on https://busy-beavers.tigyog.app/proofs-about-programs if you can locate the section "Once more, in Lean", it says:

"That’s because Lean only lets you write functions that halt. "

Is that incorrect?
- Generally, GNOME with the dash-to-panel/dash-to-dock extension-du-jour to have a left-side panel with app buttons (so, a "Ubuntu/Unity"-like look). It baffles me how stock GNOME still insists not to provide a left/bottom "dock" / task switcher as a built-in option, and force you to go to the menu every time you want to access / switch to an app, but here we are with extensions oÔ.

- That being said, a well-configured/simplified Plasma these would certainly be all well (or not, see my final paragraph below about locking things down; GNOME is less infinitely configurable than KDE/Plasma, so there's less room for user fuckup). Also I'm certainly biased towards GNOME because that's what I choose to use for my machines. Also also, I go where there are the most eyeballs (again, for stability & maximal guarantee that bugs are seen), and for now it's GNOME.

- Exception: one grandma has a particularly old laptop (x86-32 old :D) with meager RAM, so for her setup I went with MATE. I hesitated between LxQt and MATE, tried both, and MATE (at the time) seemed a tad more polished.

Finally, since I have your interest and GUIs are a subject I love ranting about, one more thing you need to do when setting up an old ladies machine, is to LOCK DOWN ALL THE THINGS YOU CAN:

- LibreOffice toolbars that can be accidentally dragged, then maybe dragged offscreen or closed? LOCK THEM.

- Thunderbird folder column titles that will change email ordering if accidentally clicked? HIDE THEM with userChrome.css until https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=237051 is fixed.

- Etc etc, when I'm done provisioning such a machine, I spend an hour playing with it and wondering "How could someone haphazardly clicking and dragging everywhere break/mismanage this?" , and I disable/lock/hide everything I can. There is a million configurable / breakable things that we power users don't imagine being confusing to a user, because we know the features and we're precise at clicking on stuff. But to non-computerists, these things are veeeeery confusing! They'll email you with a gibberish issue description when invoked accidentally, and when it happens too often they get scared. There's potential to build a whole distribution aimed at such users, with everything properly locked down.
I'm not sure if the author is aware that they can bring their own key material if they wish to KMS. The cost model is a little different, but you retain complete control of their life cycle across time and regions. It would seem to solve many of their pain points. Additionally, AWS recently added support for a user maintained keystore.

As for some of these statements (i.e. loss of key equals loss of data, re-encryption with a new key is expensive to go through an entire disk, etc.), that is exactly the point of encryption and holds true beyond the cloud. It is not meant to be trivial; it is a layer of security that trades convenience and often some level of performance.

But wouldn’t the blockchain give a decentralised record of ownership that was protected from corruption? If a single entity owns this database, how does it fare against attacks/bad actors, or highly capitalists companies like EA going in and editing it in their best interests.

You need a truly good organisation to host that single DB and I’m not sure I tryst any of them at the moment.

(Also thought I have a cursory knowledge of blockchain technology, so please correct me if I’m off.)
I’ve used Fastmail for…two decades? Some very long period of time. Very happy, although I don’t use Gmail so I can’t compare features.
Wow so if a buyer resells the NFT, 10% of the proceeds go directly to the company and Trump. I think it’s clear this has more to do with “collectible” plates and coins and less to do with any application of crypto technology.
I'm taking classes in mid-50s. Never too late, and regardless of the anti-college faction on HN, I think it's worthwhile. Mathematics in particular will be useful in many places you might want to go. As a hiring manager, I see someone doing this as a positive; I value folks who seek to improve themselves.

Your plan (CS local for CoL, Masters elsewhere) seems very sound. I don't know any companies subsidizing something like this unfortunately. However, when it comes Masters time, depending on where you go in the world there will likely be financial aid options of various types and quantities.

You could say that infinitely. That doesn't help you avoid anything... could direct you to worse decisions.

We use the incidents we know to inform ourselves about probability and etc. It's not just those incidents that are considered. And when more data comes along we use that too. That's how figuring things out works for just about everything.

4 Hours of Asian Mum to Help You Focus on Practising/Studying/Working
Straw men are among the most insightful constructions; they expose the crow’s idiocy.
The funniest part of all these projects is how they're trying to explain NFTs to people not into crypto. The FAQ includes questions such as "why do I need a crypto wallet", "are there physical cards created of these cards" and "what is the shipping policy" ("Trump Digital Trading Cards are not delivered physically!").

I remain as convinced as ever that NFTs will never be mainstream. But luckily it seems that the parties involved with this shitshow are probably not concerned about that aspect.
Are you so hyperfocused on the supposed hypocrisy on the left that you're blind to Elon's hypocrisy of claiming to be making Twitter a true platform for free speech and then banning people for criticizing him?

> Who could have thought that social platform neutrality is a good thing?!

I've been on HN for 6 years and this is the most intellectually dishonest question I've ever seen. Elon Musk's Twitter is anything but neutral. Banning your dissidents is as far from neutral as it gets.
I didn’t leave out a lie?

There was no private information. There was no collusion.

The only person who’s definition of free speech that keeps changing is Elon Musk.
What private information has been shared by those journalists?

Edit: Never mind, I read your posts again:
They were sharing private information regarding his private jet location

This information IS NOT PRIVATE. I literally just looked up and Musk even has private pilots license. You can find who owns what planes and get their numbers.
Traditionally many authors were paid by words/pages. I’d imagine revenue has a lot more to do with the number of books sold nowadays. This isn’t new specifically to the time range studied in this article, but many of the classic novels that come to mind were definitely influenced by an incentive (other than content) for a higher word count.

Tolstoy, for example, took advantage of being paid by the amount of content by basically saying everything twice in a different way. This style makes for relaxed reading, because you’ll catch the content the second time if not the first, but it’s obviously not necessary. Dickens, as another example, also published less-dense material on a regular basis based on his contractual obligations (his novels actually read better if you follow the original publication schedule). His books were just part of another publication, basically a newspaper. As long as he delivered a satisfactory amount of core-story each week, he kept his job. This incentivized him to split up the best parts and add some fluff.

I’m no less satisfied by a good modern book than War and Peace. I enjoy both for different reasons.
Similar things rarely happen in Windows because Windows has a stable kernel ABI and developers can, do, and are incentivized to supply drivers for their hardware.
Uh yeah, I sold out of my NFT trading cards too.

> Sure, just multi-hundred amp capable infrastructure run in the middle of the street, installed to withstand weather and seismic events, with someone on call to fix it when it fails, liable for injury or other harm...

You can pay people to install cables, and you can get insurance. We're talking about a lot of money to save and pay for it.

> PG&E might be shite, but the hand-wavy dismissal of modern electric infrastructure is overlooking something that is a real benefit to society, and that infrastructure has real costs to keep it running.

The real point here is that if you moved the meter slightly there could be a huge change in price, and that seems weird!
I wanted to get out of my office basement and into something that was close by, I went to a WeWork in my locality and while it was a nice space overall, I was astounded by both how expensive, and how empty, it was. For less I was able to find an office space that was closer to my house, owned and operated by a local company, and was larger.
No joke: I use a local SQLite db with three tables (clients, projects, work). Accessed with a GUI client. Works great!
Worth calling out imo, in our current world you have recourse and an ability to "recover" from identity theft (to some extent). If the government controls your identity and revokes some piece, what can you do?
That covers insurance, parking, maintenance, etc?

Heavy like the people eating it.
you are mistaken, the link between saturated fat and LDL cholesterol is extremely well documented and widely known, also matches my personal experience just for good measure.

the only controversies about reducing saturated fats have to do with secondary effects, such as, "person might eat too many carbs if they reduce saturated fats too much", things like that. There are also some quacks who have tried to claim that LDL cholesterol levels are not important and even that arteriosclerosis is not a cause of heart attacks. You can go pretty far with this kind of stuff, when following the science means one has to radically change their diet in order to avoid heart disease, people really want there to be another answer.
This article is silly. There are many companies that provide corporate registry services. For instance, if you searched all the tens of thousands of companies that use CT Corporation, you would find lots and lots that have been involved in litigation. And that would have literally no bearing on any of the other companies. I don't know anything about this Wyoming outfit, but that you'd use a generic registration service for a Delaware company is nothing special. It is, in fact, the norm.
We took our cat in, but she absolutely hated it. Then we thought she escaped for a few hours until we found her expertly hiding underneath some machinery.

In Costco they sell this cat food called ‘Maintenance cat’. Maybe we need one of those cats.
2018 SpaceX Invoices for Elon Musk Private Jets
Just to clarify: I have a full office in a WeWork, and I've worked in the same office (along with some of my colleagues) for over 4 years. So I (and the company I work for) might not be the "typical" WeWork customer story. As far as workplaces go, it's perfectly fine: the office itself is nicely designed and has reasonable (but not especially fancy) amenities.

I haven't really engaged in the community, although there seems to be a somewhat active one. I know other people who have, including going to parties and social events that were organized by WeWork (I have no idea if these are as common anymore, but they seemed to be happening a lot in 2018-19).
I'd rather politicians sell stupid trading cards to raise cash than to accept bribes from Goldman Sachs via speaking fees.

AOC also sells a ton of overpriced merch to raise cash, so it's not unheard of.
Ask HN: Why not focus on self parking cars rather than FSD
Imagine a car that drops you at the curb and then drives off to a far parking spot at the airport. Or you exit at garage entrance and it finds a space and parks. Parking garages and lots could be outfitted easily with automation beacons and markings as well? Is anyone close to this?

Impossible. Tried multiple times, but they just won't deliver my emails and even if it's 1/10, it's too many for me.

I am staying out of G products except Gmail, but if you need your emails delivered (to Gmail addresses) I am afraid it's the only solution as of right now.
People create one @ alias per team and also many others for subteams or temporary project teams, etc. There is one for oncall too. Every time one of those aliases gets tagged, I get a notification, an orange counter or sometimes messages from Slackbot asks me to join the channels.

I'd like to specify which aliases should not be ignored but I can't in Slack, unless I'm missing something.

Also, disabling the oragen counter is not possible (even for muted channels).

In tech support, I'd frequently get screenshots of a few lines of a terminal window pasted into PowerPoint slides and Word docs — usually via some heavily compressed remote desktop-running-on-another-remote-desktop — with the information I actually needed invariably a few lines higher. My favorite was flash photos of a monitor taken with a non-smartphone from fully airgapped sites, where the turnaround for running a command and getting the output would be at least 5 minutes because the on-site user had to leave the server closet and go down a few halls to get back to a network-connected system, copy the photo off the camera to the computer, and attach it to the ticket.

Eventually I rigged up a tool to automatically pull screenshots from tickets via the ticket system's API, then raise contrast on them with imagemagick and run them through OCR. Some red error text on a black background screencapped through multiple layers of compression might as well not exist, even if it's perfectly readable to the end user, so I'd even done comparisons (that I've since unfortunately lost) of how different command-line OCR tools fared with low-contrast color text, because Tesseract wasn't always the most functional option.
