This implies an extra tax on ICE to make them switch to EV.

This is the solution. Too many chargebacks and his business will be classified as high-risk by credit card processing companies, and his ability to do business could be jeopardized.[1]

If other, lesser measures have failed to make him treat his customers with respect, affecting his livelihood might do the trick.

I don’t think we are that intelligent obviously. When I watch the news this is confirmed. And when we send out a “look here and come plunder” beacon it is confirmed as well. We just exited the campfire stage a hundred years ago or so. An alien civilization could be millions or billions of years ahead of us with weapons that we can’t even imagine.
You aren't wrong, but the solution should be to just cover the expenses of the USPS upfront with tax money instead of allowing them to take in funding by contributing to the destruction of our planet and stuffing all our mailboxes with literal trash.

The USPS is an amazing service that absolutely deserves to be funded, but as long as we're paying for it, let's choose a method that would mean finally putting an end to all the crap in our mailboxes and eliminating all the waste in energy and resources spent carrying it all from the post office to the mailbox to the landfill.
I was using Excalidraw for (maybe unconventional?) mind-mapping, and one feature that I learned to appreciate is the ability to introduce unstructured objects into the diagram (e.g. add a box grouping arbitrary links, drop an image etc). I wonder how Canvas will hold up for such use cases.
What I'm looking at is the clarity value of copyright - do I know what things are and aren't copyrighted? I'm working on a social media startup right now, and managing copyright is tricky as it is. My concern here is that if copyright were only 20 years, removing copyrighted content would become even harder, making it even more difficult to compete with Meta / Google / etc.
What's the difference between this and just using a default.nix/flake?
The interesting thing is that on SO, the good stuff gets upvoted, while the bad/incorrect stuff is being pushed down or out completely. And it’s not rare that you see poor/wrong code snippets. Thanks to this mechanism, it actually shouldn’t be harmful to have auto-generated responses there, because they get reviewed and curated by humans. Isn’t the combination of AI legwork with Human review the best thing we have so far?
> A longstanding goal in Artificial Intelligence is to formulate learning systems that assign credit, such that, when they succeed or fail in a task, we can determine and interpret which components of the system are responsible. A possible approach to the credit assignment problem is to route capsules at multiple levels of composition. A capsule is a group (e.g., vector, matrix) of artificial neurons representing the properties of an entity in a context (e.g., a token of text in a paragraph, an object
depicted in an image). Routing consists of assigning data from input capsules, each representing a detected entity, to output capsules, each representing a detectable entity, by finding or computing agreement in some form (e.g., identifying clusters) among candidate output capsules proposed by transforming the input capsules. Each output capsule is computed as a mixture of the candidates proposed for it on which the most input capsules agree, thereby assigning credit to those input capsules. If we compose multiple routings into a deep neural network, in every forward pass it assigns credit to input capsules representing the entities detected at each level of composition.

I hope that helps you, because it didn't help me. I think it's about trying to expose how a neural network makes decisions by saying these neurons over here were responsible for making those neurons over there be the way that they are.

I really need to get into AI.
Do you have a link to the study making those (very hard to believe) claims?
People that write ruby usually do so because they like ruby (as opposed to just doing it for a job, etc). Therefore, people who write ruby are probably going to upvote submissions about the cool quirks of ruby -- and there are a lot of people who write ruby.
This does not sound convincing to me; I can not imagine ANY realistic scenario where artistic activity is only viable because of profits earned more than 20 years later: Not for individual authors/creators and especially not for companies.

I think this point of view only appears reasonable because of how ridiculously extensive copyright terms are right now...

Imagine companies paying bonuses for work that was done >20 years earlier: That sounds to me neither reasonable nor helpful in any way.
Have to give him some credit for coming to terms with his Dunning-Kruger regarding modern web development, that graveyard of geniuses.

Most apps aren't built to use it, especially on mobile. Think of the use case of your grocery list--you want one tap, open the list, type type type, and done. Anything else--having to tap save, sync, write a commit message, etc... anything, is a fail in my opinion. Git is great to use behind the scenes but I don't want to see it in the UI or slow down my workflow.
I'm a big fan of both French's and Tartt's books, especially these two (TSH, and The Likeness). Likeness does evoke TSH, certainly, but is definitely its own story with a fascinating "MacGuffin" (which I won't spoil here) -- providing enough psychological depth to reward repeated rereading, even once you know how it turns out.

Also, it actually is a murder mystery, which TSH arguably isn't.
As if I needed yet another place to have information tied to me out on the public searchable internet.
Yes, it lives to the hype. One good example, it is used by Prisma: https://www.prisma.io/typescript

I have seen types and type unions get pretty complicated though
You don't really achieve any more for debugging with this than you would inspecting memory values on an emulator though, you're not actually inspecting memory on the real hardware - any bugs that are only reproducible on the real hardware would cause this to desync because it's just an emulator running side by side with the real hardware.
It seems like that could be solved by making them non-transferable. They can only be licensed by a corporation.
Depends how you feel about maintaining the neo liberal world order I suppose
> The HOGO rest system is connected to the building grounding system for the removal of residual and accumulated EMFs in the person during the day. The plug, with a no-return diode, is made of plastic and rubber so as not to be a conductor of the electricity.

This is pure 100% nonsense. Whatever that bed is, it is not shielding EMF in any way, and it cannot possibly work. It's like every word there is wrong: EMF do not accumulate, you cannot remove them with any kind of bed, "no-return diodes" do not exists, plugs made out of rubber have no effect.

I was looking forward to see the sleep study in Faraday cage (that would be interesting!) but I got this pseudo-science junk instead.
Not in most hospitals.
I remember people saying that AI was going to displace artists because they overhead business managers saying how great it was that they no longer had to hire a human artist for a design job. In other words, had there been an option to forgo the human in the first place, the human artist would never have stood a chance to take such a job. I think this reveals a depressing fact. The desire to automate humans away has always existed, and now people can finally realize those dreams. Maybe even prompt engineering itself is in that sense a bottleneck to be overcome in the future, if a human still has to attend to constructing it?

I don't think "artificial intelligence" is a good term for describing what's happening right now. It makes it sound like a robot overlord is calling the shots and displacing human workers, but in reality, it's just humans pitted against humans with different beliefs. AI tools still require humans that believe in the proliferation of AI to use them and spread the results everywhere.

I agree with the article's mention that maybe some reflection is needed when proliferating new discoveries. The "just a tool" argument doesn't consider that what affordances a new technology offers will dictate what most people will use it for in practice. I don't think many people would argue that nuclear weapons are "just a tool" once their uncontrolled spread makes them impossible for any side to ignore. And the dangers aren't yet on a "destruction of humanity" level like many who worry about AGI, but perhaps "the destruction of humanity in the arts" is more plausible given the recent developments up to now? We aren't even close to anything resembling AGI yet, but specific domains are still vulnerable to being overrun by AI generation this early on (StackOverflow, ArtStation, etc).

But this is a matter of tradeoffs, and maybe researchers will continue to be overeager in sharing their exciting findings, until an even more severe line is crossed than the one that set off the current war on AI art. I don't look forward to a time where demonstrators will scrape GitHub listings and arXiv papers to seek out contributors to anything that touches OpenAI or Stability and implore them to have a change of heart, or scream louder and louder to have their voices heard by the programmers writing their torch denoising code from inside the safety of their office buildings.

Coffeezilla is great. Loved the safemoon video
Trust funds and “old money” from family fortunes are alive and well in places like New York, how some younger people can afford to live like this without the high paying job or business they run.

> My point is that using attendance as some sort of measure of "merit"

No, I'm not proposing it be a measure of merit. Or a "measure" of
anything. It's an incentive to attend classes, nothing more.

> or just don’t see the value in attending.

This is the oddest and also most interesting remark. If they don't see
value in attending then why are they on the course? And, if they don't
see value then they are free to exercise the right not to come and to
forgo the financial reward too, and surely nothing is lost?

I think buried behind some arguments here (perhaps not yours
specifically) is the idea that we ought to simply make degrees
something you pay for - by enrolling you get the certificate and the
courses are non-assessed. In that case performance, attendance and
participation become a different orthogonal quality prospects. It's a
proposal that has quite some support amongst my colleagues and which
I've argued for here[1]

Tell your mum what happened and have her call her bank and report her credit card as lost. A new number will be issued so Digital Ocean won't be able to bill her card any more.

Also contact Digital Ocean via email and explain what happened and that you need to close the account. Then you have a legitimate record of what happened so if they try to send you an invoice, you have evidence that they shouldn't be doing this per your earlier request.

Good luck and I'm sorry to hear this happened to you.
I think the best social media experience is just to participate a little here, and little there, use email, have your own website, have a separate place for photos, a separate place for discussions, use relatively back-water like this, etc.

The reason is that without a massive, centralized network, no company can benefit from it in a mass-production advertising/factory sort of way like Facebook. That's exactly why I refuse to use Facebook and I've never had an account. Spread it around, and don't put all your eggs in one basket. In fact, I don't think we even need huge social media companies and we'd do just fine without them.
> And some people critique its premise and existence.

And some people critique your critique. Why do you get upset when people critique you? Why do you dismiss any feminist thought?
FWIW it's a bit of a different game with TPMs than with secure elements in general - imagine how much would it cost a bank in credit card replacement costs if the firmware on them could be erased by anyone, making the card useless. That's not something that should be wipeable.
Approximately zero people participating in HN need to see this type of reply to a comment. I suggest you assume good intent in GP’s message and respond in a constructive manner.
This is indeed great progress!

Along with reserved zones, we must also provide protection along migration routes. Everything from insects to bison and whales can migrate considerable distances, and the routes that they need do not coincide with human development. If they cannot successfully travel between their seasonal areas, they will still be lost.

We're not there yet, but need to keep making good things happen.
And then people won't release their works. Why should I invest time/energy/my money/long nights not spent having fun to create something that I won't own, have control over, or profit from? What is my incentive. Sure, some people are down for that, but we created copyright laws because otherwise we miss out on a ton of valuable stuff to society, more valuable than handing over copyright works to the public. Society decided this and has benefited hugely (as in hands). You want to re-write the rules because 'it doesn't work' makes no sense. We have record amounts of IP being created, how does it not work? Are there not books being written? So it's working. Are there movies being made? So it's working. Are there video games being made? So it's working. Is there music being made? So it's working. Are business processes being improved? So it's working. Show HOW it's not working on a level that we risk destroying all of that creation and those creators livelihoods and incomes. And not 'it's not working, 20 years only!'. That is not an argument.
>At what point do we say “this is enough” rather than hand-waving it away as yet another excess of academia?

That point will never happen, because those who stand up will be righteously cut down. An acquaintance is seeking a faculty position and they are being asked ideologically filtering questions in interviews, with the pretty overt suggestion that the wrong answer to any would disqualify them as a candidate.
When I say simultaneously I mean typing something on a file on my laptop and then putting that away and making more change on my phone a few seconds later (sometimes the gap is even longer than that). Sync is pretty slow especially since it doesn't sync in the background.
Massive uphill battle to have an online payment company treated as such.

Hm, the way I use the browser most likely break affiliate programs. I have ClearURLs which remove affiliate links, and no cookies are stored unless I use a persistent container, so the site can't realistically remember if I ever clicked on one of those links (unless they use some fingerprinting thing, but that's unlikely to persist over weeks/months).
> This sentiment seems to be near-universal in all but the most "progressive" societies (and even in some parts of those).

In what universe is this sentiment any of your concern? I presume you imagine this one?

I’m simply pointing out your mistake, which is that this is not simply some sentiment that can be modified with the appropriate social conditioning. It is the ordinary human reaction to undeniable biological realities. Nowhere in my comment did I suggest that this was an appropriate basis for actual tyrannical behaviour, so please don’t try to gaslight me into defending such a position, because it won’t work. As I have said elsewhere, even in the most progressive countries in the world, this is still a ubiquitous concern.
Ask HN: Books on better understanding art history?
My partner is a scientist with a biology PhD and I’ve always been astounded by how well rounded she is in the arts and humanities because she also randomly got a graduate degree in art history.

Unfortunately, I’ve really only focused on technical things in my life outside of some fiction and want to learn more about art history and different kinds of art. I’m interested in the renaissance era, but also overviews of art through history.

I’m preferably looking for a light intro for a beginner and not a dense textbook
If the dark forest hypothesis is true, you can bet any civilization advanced enough to detect us will go out of their way to avoid being detected by us.

For all we know, there could be a gigantic tungsten rod slowly and purposefully accelerating toward us that would destroy all life on earth in ten thousand years, and we'd have no way of knowing.

You really think the people who got a <3.5% interest rate loan will let go of their properties in the next 5 years to purchase a 5%+ mortgage for a more expensive monthly payment? What incentive do they have?
That notion is true. The wealth gap exists and grows bigger all the time.

So begin with a sequence of 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1. That establishes a baseline cadence of minutes, or hours or whatever. A clock signal if you will.

Then switch to primes. I think anyone looking at that kind of message will figure it out eventually. It can't be mistaken for a natural occurence.

Similar thing happened to me. I had been a customer for maybe ten years and had my account closed over one overdraft. I got an apology check for a little over $100 a few months ago. I haven't been with Wells Fargo in over a decade, I had changed addresses, I was very surprised.

I had excellent experiences with Wells Fargo up until they closed my account. Instant car loan approval and overnighted loan. At the time they had one of best online experiences. I have no intention of returning, I don't ever want to experience an account closing again.

Yes. But most people don’t like stealing. You can reshare anything you purchased online already today, this service doesn’t change anything in this respect.
This illustrates the sheer inefficiency of the market in this case.

While distribution is basically free (pirates do it at a very low cost), having a payment system set up for these "unusual" purchases costs more than the revenue is worth.
I feel like the “metaverse” will fare actually worse than 3D TVs did, which would be quite the accomplishment.
I've never heard of a society that coerces women into not getting married and having children. And the imposition is by adult women and men against younger women and men, not simply men against women.
This is a very good point. Things done wrong in the standard library are often done wrong permanently and forever. Particularly given the current demands from some people for perfect backwards compatibility.

Looking at the stdlib for a language like Rust it tends to feel like people who had 20+ years of experience in other languages went and thought deeply about the problem, with an understanding that accepting the design might be permanent.
One of the immediately noticable uncanny valley effects is the eye appear to pan up, which never occurs in real life -- the eye jerks to a new direction as a step movement, called a saccade.

From an ML perspective, I would have assumed they would train on high frame rate video, but it seems they didn't, they're estimating motion of pixel clumps. I don't see how it can ever do things like eyes/smiles/teeth. Useful for reconstructed pseudo slideshows in Google Photos with added vampire effect.
Disney gets blamed a lot for this, but I don't really buy it. The copyright extension in '76 brought America into the same copyright duration as stipulated by the Berne Convention of 1886 (although the US would not sign on until a decade later), and the Sonny Bono act extended copyright length to the same as what had been harmonised in the EU a few years prior; Germany had had notoriously long copyright lengths, lasting 80 years past the death of the author at one point.

Don't get me wrong, copyright length is certainly too long, but blaming Disney is rather Americentric, considering the US was rather late to the game on long copyright durations.
Very cool. I was just listening to a podcast recently from one of the Heroku founders who is working on an iOS (for now) infinite canvas app too.

I'd love to hear from anyone that has used infinite canvas in their workflow and found good use cases. Does it work well for teams collaborating on projects? I worry it could just turn into a more difficult to navigate wiki that's organized in a scatterbrained way--like it only makes sense to the person who made the most stuff in it.
Interesting article. I was surprised by how linear the luminance-power curves actually are.
