It didn't have to be that way.
After the QAnon crowd started the whole “I’m awake, not woke” thing, I think it became pretty clear that the intent of the word is only used to incite hatred under the guise of poking fun at something ala trump’s penchant for nicknames.

I certainly use it as a cue to stop listening to someone.
After reading the article I'm still kind of unsure what the process is. You meet a fellow pilot / famous person / rando and ask them to sign a $1 bill which you then attach by tape to your "short snorter". Maybe they ask what's going on, and so you sign a $1 and tell them to hold onto it always, because if you ask for it and they don't have it, they owe you a drink / $1. Is that how it works?
I used to think <person> was smart. Then I discovered that he disagrees with me about <political issue>, and I realized he couldn't be, because no one who disagrees with me about <political issue> could be smart.

Could someone mention the context for the question? I have seen this clip before and it always escapes me.
Could you copy in (or sideload) a statically linked "top" binary?
It was still differentiated in the minor version number though, 6.0 was Vista, 6.1 was Windows 7, 6.2 was Windows 8 and 6.3 was Windows 8.1...

Windows 11 uses the same 10.0 as Windows 10, the difference shifted to the "build number", which feels a bit weird cause now 10.0.19045 (Win10 22H2) was released a year later than 10.0.22000 (Win11 21H2)...
You can't really undo this the cat is already out of the bag and most likely we will have open source reimplementations of ChatGPT soon. I also see if we were to keep it secret doesn't really work. Once you even publish a paper describing the system immediately it is going to be reproduced. This happened with Stable Diffusion and ChatGPT is next.

A good analogy would be the knowledge required to make a nuclear weapon. The scientific knowledge to understand how to do it would be in a high school physics class but the hard part is refining the nuclear material. Reproducing ChatGPT requires a large amount of expensive server time but once you have the model working it can be distributed very easily.
I'm not sure about "less packages used." Anecdotally it's the new users who install a massive amount of "plugins" from ELPAs and the more experienced ones slowly integrating a few large packages but mostly custom code into their workflows over 20+ years.
Ask HN: How do people find your blog?
Hi HN,

I've seen a few posts encouraging people to start blogging or collect their TILs in the form of a blog. I find this to be a great idea, but if it's meant to be public, how would you approach the sharing of this information?

I don't love the idea of spamming social media with links just to get people to discover your blog, but maybe that's the best approach.

The other option I guess is to just post and let it be discovered, but would that ever happen organically in today's internet?

From the other end, as a reader, how do you keep track of interesting blogs? Is RSS still being used? Personally I've realized I read blog posts shared on social media or here on HN, which comes back to as a blogger you might have to spam your links to get traffic.
I am not involved in chip manufacturer, so my domain knowledge is very limited.

Where did you go to school? And how come every college educated (mostly in the US) developer I've met has never done that before...
“similar to a Magic Eight Ball toy in function and impressiveness”

This just isn’t true. The images and text generated by these AI are so much more than some dollar store gimmick. ChatGPT can generate regexes in seconds that take seasoned developers hours. DALL-E can generate images well enough to pass as illustrations in children’s books.

We are well beyond 8-ball territory.

One question is to what degree safety is dependent on testing in these specific good weather areas for literally years. And even the SF public self-driving area excludes what is almost certainly the somewhat harder area of SF for self-driving (though opening up much of SF is more impressive than Phoenix generally).
I do not even begin to suggest in my comment that NextJS is batteries-included, nor that I want it to be. Maybe you're addressing someone else's comments.
Oh like working with the FBI, DHS, and CIA ...plus third-party contractors (many of which are not based in the United States) to secretly shut down speech the government doesn't like? That kind of shutting down transparency?
That is why statistics then has stuff like distributions, confidence intervals and such.
Many years ago, as an intern at Google, one of my mentors said to me "Google found a hose that money pours out of, and it's name is 'online advertising'. All we do now is improve that hose and desperately search for another one".

I would love to see Waymo become another hose. I'd love to see it launch in my city (whenever the laws are amended to allow such things).

(Yes, I know arguably they've had a few other successes.)
Historical scandals are constantly being rewritten (largely by deletion) on the internet. It's even very hard to find details on the robosigning scandals from 2008, which were huge and recent.

I'm not a programmer, but does this look like software? i.e. extensive and detailed instructions.
Not quite. Bank cards can be revoked after unsuccessful attempts while doing that with usernames is problematic.

You need a carefully constructed system to make the use of passwords viable.
> but look at what happened to Paul pelosi - the spouse of the 3rd in line to succeed the presidency gets his head smashed in - where’s the outrage over how their location was found?

Musk only had jokes for that one. For all the hue and cry about Twitter's "partisanship" there really is no principle here, it's only about who holds the gavel.
The original usage would be to describe something like a sign that says "No Parking on Sundays" as being proof that parking is allowed on other days.

Typically when it is used now it means "I'm wrong but I'm still right".
This is false. He banned the so-called journalists for linking to alternative sources for Elon jet tracking.
I think reliance on highly-concentrated markets (globally/nationally) for any critical resource is the bigger issue.
I took a Waymo in Phoenix the other night. Works like magic. I’m honestly fine waiting four times as long for one because it’s fun, and it’s cheaper. Even when they had to send out a manual driver, the experience was smooth and fast.
Income inequality is downstream from globalism (middle class jobs get exported), so I think you’re making his point?
It's the wrong way to Fram the question.

If I have a program that emits a painful audio bit every time the user does X and only 0.05% of users disable it by going to a configuration value they need to search for through dozens of (my own) SEO'd results, that doesn't mean that only 0.05% of users want it disabled, it just means that only 0.05% of users were able to figure out how to stop my program from doing X.

I work on a product where our power user base is known for requesting registry options to change/disable feature x/y, and our market research has consistently shown a registry value doesn't enter most people's minds; to further this point, our user base is specifically IT persons. Even our Linux user base (actual day to day linux users) don't consider asking if we have a config file to edit somewhere in any overwhelming way.

The point I take from this data (which I know is anecdata for you) is that most users assume software "out of the box" is what you see is what you get. Making these changes and options and not including a way to remove them is not a good way of tracking interest since the sample size that is actually willing to take the time to complain and post compared to those that just look at other software entirely are far different. You're dealing with a complete unknown in the Power User space; regular users are even less inclined to see how to disable it and hiding it behind registry edits is actually a dissuasion.
I’m not sure it’s broadcasting. My OS just displays location EXIF by default next to the thumbnail.

It’s only the web browser that hides that stuff.

If a later change to Chrome makes EXIF data easily viewable is then a privacy concern?
It blows my mind that someone thinks that counting "their/there" mixups constitutes an argument.
Twitter and Tesla shareholders that are concerned about the amount of CEO attention their respective company is receiving?
No, the Greens have not declared war on single family homes. That was just the right-wing pitch on the observation by a green politician, that inside dense city regions, there is not enough real estate for single-family houses and that multi-unit houses have a way better energy balance.

If you live in a more rural region, feel free to have single-family houses. With an energy-efficient building style and rooftop-solar, that should be very environmently friendly. That is, if you don't waste too much energy commuting.

In and directly around cities, there is a huge scarcity of space for buildings and a shortage of homes. Having more dense units is both socially and environmentally friendly.
Nope. Some were banned for linking to the LAPD statement, some for just asking him follow up questions.
Now we are just having the conversation we wanted the entire time. Rather than having people hide behind "free speech absolutism" we can have a discussion about why some people think that transphobia is more acceptable on a platform than making fun of Elon Musk.
Sweeney himself says Musk's jet is using PIA. Sweeney told Musk about the program in the first place, so he was completely aware of the situation.

This obsession is gross.
>"Yeah, bad idea to go to war unless your shit at home is already together."

So if your country doing fine and all "shit is together" it is ok to start a war? What is fucking wrong with people.
While I understand the point you are making, 4chan has definitely done that.
Google has YouTube, Android, gmail, GCP and a bunch of other big businesses.

I have a ton of criticism about Google but they've been able to diversify a lot better than I expected and I totally understand why companies with big cash "hoses" like you describe are making these sort of 'long shot but highly profitable' investments.
Except that most of the same code keeps working, and even between classical Framework and Core, most concepts keep working even if the APIs, and configuration files, are a bit different.

One can keep doing MVC just as always, no need to jump into Razor Pages with code behind, or the minimal APIs designed to cater to JS devs.

Just like JakartaEE isn't fully 100% Java EE, yet most stuff works the same way.

> That seems like a fairly big stretch for something, however bad, allegedly happening in 2020 off Twitter at all.

Jacobs argues it did happen on Twitter, because Lorenz and others used Twitter to promote the NYT article in which she doxxed her.

> Besides, isn't any legal content fair game on the new Twitter?

I think when Musk said that, he really meant “ideas” not mere “information”. It might be legal for me to post your home address, but I don’t think that is what he had in mind. I think what he meant was that people with unpopular social/political/etc views should be free to express them if they are legal. Someone’s home address isn’t a social/political/etc view.

So I don’t think banning people for doxxing is really contrary to what he meant when he said that. Now, he actually has gone backward on what he meant - re-banning Kanye for extremely antisemitic posts, implying that extreme antisemitism is not going to be allowed even if legal - but surely it is good he went back on that?

(The problem with banning “non-extreme” antisemitism, is few can agree on where to draw the line - some pro-Israel people claim that anyone who criticises Israel “too much” is being antisemitic, effectively implying that almost all pro-Palestinian activism is antisemitic - but surely we shouldn’t just ban everyone who is pro-Palestinian. On the other hand, few would deny that sometimes, some pro-Palestinian activists do get “carried away” and veer into more clearly antisemitic territory. But how far is too far? Reasonable people can disagree. This is why I think it is okay to ban clearcut cases of extreme antisemitism, like Ye, but trying to ban every possible instance of it is not sensible.)
Winter & Cold Weather EV Range Loss in 7,000 Cars
Yes, but the point is that it's not really that far off. PNG will outperform in screenshots with a lot of empty space, so if you were dealing with that situation, obviously PNG is better. OTOH, QOI still performs relatively well: while the difference is multiples in some cases, to me it seems that those cases are mostly ones where PNG's compression ratio is obscenely good, and therefore QOI is actually still producing reasonably small image files, too.

I can see that QOI performs well for what you might use as texture maps for 3D rasterization, for example. Definitely seems to have some applicability to me.
It's not so much about the SSD, but the USB cable being quite easy to unplug accidentally, though I suppose if you used something like one of those short Samsung Fit drives or a NVMe dock and had a custom enclosure that holds it in place after the Pi is screwed in, then maybe yeah.

Nowadays, I doubt that there is a huge advantage to having slightly more performant CPUs - companies typically would benefit more by incorporating custom requirements into the chip so that they can reduce chip count and size etc. Arguably Google has the resources to make their own performant CPU (with blackjack and hookers) without needing to use RISC-V anyway.
If a person belongs to the society, then sick, suffering people are not a value but a cost and killing them becomes net gain for society.
It's very dangerous to give away body autonomy freedom to the collective as it could be potentially weaponised to target not only sick, old and poor but political opponents as well.
Then why did you not do that?

It's interesting how different the rollout of autonomous cars has been from what people were expecting a decade ago. Not just the speed of things, but also the way they're being adopted. So far, we don't seem to be anywhere close to the nationwide mass layoffs of truck and taxi drivers that people were predicting would happen when self-driving cars started to take of.

Instead, current trends seem to be for an additional form of transportation within limited geographic areas. One can imagine a scenario where, for instance, we have a number of cities where self-driving cars are the dominant form of transportation in the center, but traditional cars are still owned and operated by the people who live on the periphery, and most cities don't have self-driving networks at all. Something similar to how the subway functions in Manhattan New York, perhaps.

Or maybe not. But I think this all shows that it's not just difficult to predict which pieces of future technology we will have, but also how a particular piece of technology will actually be implemented and impact society.
It does, but they are unbearably slow.

No. With humans the dynamic is completely different: The most effective way to encourage woman to have fewer children is health care. Not just birth control but also nutrition and health care of the children they already have.

Then there is the much more complicated situation for countries that takes good care of refugees and economic migrants. (Word gets out and more and more people try to migrate)
Yes, one detail often omitted here is that the same person operates trackers for other famous jet owners. Elon is only the focus now because he called attention to it.
iTunes was the number one music seller between 2003-2008. Way before streaming became a thing.

The point is, you wouldn't normally start a .Net project today the same as you would in 2002. Personally, I jumped to separate html+js and using ashx until MVC came out, because WebForms was a mess. In the end, it's not like it's the same, even if a lot of the same code might work (unless you're using WCF or many other things that broke along the way).
Windows 11 has finally fixed bluetooth - in 10 you get two audio devices", bluetooth stereo and bluetooth hands-free. When you are watching a video, and someone calls, your headseet switches to a 'hands-free' mode and all sound that is still streaming to the stereo audio device dissapears into a black hole.

Windows 11 actually understands that this is a single audio device and handles bluetooth mode switching for you. This removed a mahor painpoint for me.

Otherwise, in my opinion, its a normal mixed bad - something is better, something is worse. Meh.
I am delighted to hear that you no longer seem to be dying from it. I hope you continue not dying for a long time.
Absolutely agree with you.

Non government company, should run how they like. If they want to be woke, fine. If they want to be 4chan, fine.

If you want to dox prior management for good faith efforts to keep the place to a standard, then randomly ban people who are annoying you, fine.

If people point at you and laugh for doing that, fine.

In that region, a large connected complex makes a lot of sense due to the climatic conditions. You can have one large cooled complex where you can travel without leaving the air conditioned area. Also, transport alternatives to cars become more attractive.
Yeah I agree with all of that but I don't see how it is relevant to the discussion. A worker co-op should be able to provide health insurance to it's employees the same as any other business. The fact that it is worker-owned shouldn't change that at all.
Being a luddite about it isn‘t the answer. And it‘s better this is happening in public than behind closed doors.

In other countries doing the providing. It didn't do as well for the ones doing the dependency ones - except in transfering welth and competence outside, and to a small minority people on the inside getting mega-rich from this outsourcing, and a quite larger but still small minority of people benefitting from related jobs.

Hence the "hollowing out of the middle class in the US", with the majority of the middle class and working class getting the short end of the stick, and a much smaller part of it and the upper middle class improving their lot.

(And the overall impact of this process softened or hidden entirely for a good while through cheap money published and going around as credit and QE)
How is that relevant? They also bought DoubleClick (the online advertising "hose")

Do you really think Putin and his generals thought that everyone would stand by and watch as they invaded Ukraine and do nothing? That's absurd.

>It is not a remotely analogous situation to US/China.

China-Taiwan and Russia-Ukraine are eerily similar, actually.

>China is much more mutually dependent on the US, and much more sane.

Their massive military build up and itchy trigger finger aiming at anyone who even tries to insinuate that Taiwan isn't part of the PRC says otherwise. Not to mention their posturing in the South China Sea, which has perturbed not only Taiwan but Vietnam and the Phillipines too.

Around 40 people died in these skirmishes. And 40 is a conservative figure btw. India claims that more than 30 Chinese soldiers died, whereas China claims 4 died. US intelligence has the number at 20-35.
