This whole “generational humour” thing seems like so much debate over something so obvious?

Every generation and phase is going to have its in jokes, speech patterns, cultural references. The medium and mechanism changes, and probably the velocity, but the fundamental pattern remains the same.

The Gen Z crowd lampooning millennials for lol speak are going to find themselves similarly lampooned when the next generation gets old enough to start calling “no cap fr fr” cringe. It’s like the cycle of life, but for humour.
You can use the "browserless" docker service which contains a headless chrome browser in a docker container. It also supports puppeteer and playwright connect api. Works flawless! I use it in combination with n8n. All on a raspberry pi4b (yes, I got one recently)
it's great that you personally are thorough enough to dig into the article and see for yourself - my favorite data set size of 1 and conclusions from that - but half the people even here, let alone outside of hn, will just grab the headline and run with it, saying "I heard roombas spy on people", and that's a problem. And the people who wrote this article know this full well.
I'm choosing to discard it precisely because it isn't relevant, as I said. When and where a word was coined implies nothing about what languages it is and isn't a part of today.
Yes! I love Articles of Interest. I am very much not into fashion, but fashion is also a game you can't not play; the fact that I'm so ignorant of it I think is part of why I really like the historical analysis.

It's great stuff.
> It is used for a ton of reason.....and I just had a long day, please just read the blogs we have on our site. I wrote some of the blogs myself.

I scrolled through and found eg. https://ipinfo.io/blog/using-privacy-detection-data/ and https://ipinfo.io/blog/privacy-adtech-online-targeting/ and https://ipinfo.io/blog/governments-ip-address-data/, but while these might be useful to me as a business to filter the zip codes of targeted ads, they're exactly the opposite of something that provides value to me as a user.

Accurate geolocation might reduce the number of nuisance captchas I have to complete. You write "Our data is also used by governments around the globe because they know they can trust the insights we offer. Every day our databases are updated with the most accurate information at any given time..." but while your databases are the most accurate available, they're not 100% accurate, they're IMO conflating IP with identity and physical location and that just doesn't make sense.
Crypto is really good for buying drugs given that most traditional payment systems do not tend to cater for the black market.

Doesn't seem to be much dispute that stealing a physical copy is in fact illegal, it's theft. I agree, you agree. Please show me where an exception has been made in any law that says, theft doesn't apply when the goods in question are digital. Digital goods are goods, they have value, they are sold, and they can be stolen/pirated/"borrowed"/whatever words make you feel better.

Do I think the actual likelihood of an individual being prosecuted or sued for downloading torrents is more than 0.000001%? I do not. But getting away with it is not the same as being in the clear.

It may have tools that let you, but an indie project has 500 other fires to put out, and filesize is rarely a bottleneck.
But chatGPT can't connect to the internet, it said so itself. Sorry, couldn't resist pointing out this garden path title.
Someone who can use a calculator to solve a problem, still has to understand the concepts being used in order to know what buttons to press on the calculator. They will have learned what those calculations mean, and how they work.

Using an AI to crap out an essay with no understanding of the topic is not the same thing. While an essay is the way we test students, it is a stand in for measuring understanding, which is the ultimate goal.
Interestingly, something similar happens with maritime law as to what was alluded to in the article and in this post. Similar to the competition and chaos caused by "First to respond and put it out", certain salvage companies will ignore Coast Guard warnings that a boat is already accounted for, that the insurance company has already hired a salvage company to reclaim the boat, and instead other salvage companies will try to hurry out to the boat and claim it. Similar to the Terry Pratchett quote, salvage companies will fortuitously find that your boat detached from a mooring ball and drifted to sea if it's left unmanned for long periods of time.

So while a pretty good system, it's not without its flaws and perverse incentives.
Not in a way that would have been impacted by a blockchain ledger. Third party risk auditors were giving financial products risk ratings that were far out of touch with their actual risk levels. But this was due to flawed logic, financial incentives, and corruption, and not because of a lack of transparency. The data of the mortgages comprising these financial products was available to those interested in those looking to fact check, but no one was.
Am i the only one that gives absolutely no credit to economists for actually providing any good analysis on current situation beyond obvious statements ?

I’ve basically lost any respect for this profession in 2008, when you could see pseudo experts predicting pretty much anything all the time, despite being disproved by reality weeks after weeks.
> Those with the best grades and thus highest rank would be given the best opportunities for wage-slave class work

I don't believe that this observation is true. Those who got into tech, bitcoins etc. at the right time got the lambos - not the most brilliant ones. Tech is full people with inert brains who make much much more mone than some of the most brilliant scientists out there.

It has been good time to be into plumbing instead of astrophysics if you are optimising for money BTW. Just like knowing ReactJS has provided better income opportunities than being rocket scientist.

Worse, in C or C++ you also need to find a way to do it without undefined behaviour. You can't just do the operation and see if the result matches expectations…
If it includes property value it's not a true Land Value Tax.

The point of a Land Value Tax is that everyone gets taxed purely on the value of the land and none of the improvements. So adding more units would only decrease the per-unit tax you pay.

Seattle here is attempting the same thing in broad strokes by literally taxing underdevelopment - but it's clearly not as elegant of a solution
Do you have the authorization if the legal copyright holder? If so, great! But if you are downloading torrents from Pirate Bay, I'm going to assume you don't have such authorization.
These were all supposed to be things that we're getting rid of. Now, not only are we not getting rid of it, we are going to celebrate it, and consider those who do things stereotyped by one sex as in the same gender as that sex? For example, we will accept that a male is a woman because they like cleaning? Not to mention that there exist people who do these thing and do not consider themselves the other gender. For example you will find that most women at sports events do not identify as men.

>None of these divisions are necessarily good

Why do you say that these divisions are "necessarily" good? Are they not downright bad? Either there is a vast, innate emotional difference between men and women, so much so that it makes sense to classify them as different genders, and on the more rare case where one person does not fit into that gender they change it, or there is not a vast difference between genders, and we should work to elliminate "what society enforces" on that sex, rather than try to keep these two arbritary lines and make cleary misleading claims such as that they are really born as men/women ect.

Rather than suppose dozens of genders with a "man" gender dominated by males and a "woman" gender dominated by females, which is itslef on a broad spectrum, some of which is forced and some of which is not, yes, we should not accept this insane idea of gender. Instead of trying to put children on hormone blockers we should just let them exist naturaly instead of like some sort of farm animal, castrated and souped up on hormones to fit in with what some deragned gender anothropologist says.
This is understating the problem.

In months or years, it's not clear if any human will be able to provide economic value, relative to state of the art AI.

I don't see where any fundamental barriers lie between current AI and surpassing humans across the board. What can humans do that is unachievable by AI in the foreseeable future, given the current rate of advancement?
Penn's Sunday School

He changed his podcast intro to be nonbinary-inclusive and is generally pro-queer, so that meme that depicts him throwing pronouns in the garbage is really weird. The show is mostly him talking about show business with guests.
I've happily moved on from Spotify.

Has anyone produced similar (and working) alternatives for Tidal (or Sonos S1/S2)?
What do you mean by "formalized thinking strategies"? Guessing at what you mean, I'm not sure it completely overlaps with systems thinking and systems theory, which can be quite mathematical at times.
That's a pretty naive view. Him being a US citizen makes a bunch of stuff easier and some other things harder but none of those would ultimately stand in the way of him going to trial. And even if you hide in a place where there is no extradition you are still going to be tried but in absentia. And good luck moving around after that.
This is not something a startup can change directly. If you are too purist you’ll never get traction. What they can do however, is push towards better options, publish or reuse an interoperable spec, and offer it on an opt-in with good dx.

The 80% twitter clone that's "not an advanced concept" is fully eclipsed by Mastodon. You're free to host a Mastodon server that federates with no one, and there's your clone. The problem is the remaining 20%, which Mastodon has covered some of, but certainly wouldn't be done "quickly".
There's a ChatGPT attempt in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34053932 .
I agree with most answers. Therapy is good.

Tried any sports? I am almost 50 and started learning kitesurf... it is frightning, but I know I need to expose myself to some level of controlled risk, I was always too cautious, never did sports, and I want to get old with some health, so I have chosen something that I always wanted but never had the courage to do.

About being too late for wife... kids... its never late... the problem is if you visualize this girl as someone young, without prior kids or life baggage. I am pretty sure there are women around, with failed relationships, that would like to connect. Part of the process of loving yourself is accepting your age and everything you lived as a good thing. every bad decision also made what you are, be happy that you learned from them.

People may get angry by this next opinion, but relax, its just an opinion, I can change my mind about it by just reading your answers, but I particularly think that going back to US will not help you, because even if you want to be in a different mindset than the last time, to enjoy better the life there, everybody else there dont have this mindset (with very rare exceptions), so you will not have company for your "carpe diem" moments.

This is a long shot, but you should read about AHDH and see if you correlate. There is a difference between beeing depressed and being irritated all the time and mad about the things. If this is the case, lots of therapy and medicine. Takes a long time, but the medicine is modern and very effective.

Focus in feeling better with yourself and the rest will come.
I don't know how many teachers or administrators will say it outright, but LLMs and ChatGPT assisted essays are a lot more difficult to detect. ChatGPT is accurate enough to answer many typical reading comprehension questions at a high school+ level.

Students will always feel some incentive to cheat, even if they wouldn't in isolation, they could feel pressured based on their peers. A strong curriculum isn't enough to encourage every single student not to take shortcuts. Despite all external circumstances, it's still an active choice to cheat. Cheating is framed one-way because it's generally discussed imagining the laziest and most adversarial student possible, similar to how you'd red team for security testing.

I think the concern is things like ChatGPT will lead to a lot more students cheating. I think it's human nature to want to take shortcuts. I agree with you that the way in which cheating is demonized in a school environment is counterproductive in the long run. I think admin and teachers have hid behind students' fear of academic integrity violations being reported on a college application to not have to admit that most are terrible at catching cheaters. It's from the perspective of imagining ignorant teachers and adversarial students. Most minor cases of cheating aren't caught, even at a college level.
Can't you host this on hardware you are running in your house?
I mean, arguably that has _already happened_; it's just that the Big Two far-right mastodon instances (Gab and Truth Social) do not federate. Note that Gab actually used to.
This is like vertical farming. Nature gives you everything for free, now you have to pay for everything yourself.
Zuck immediately needs to hope on the AGI train before it leaves the station. He needs to pivote from Metaverse craziness. He needs to come out for making a mistake and course correct ASAP.

He has massive walled garden of data that no one else has. He had MetaAI folks who knows how to build LLMs. He has AppliedML team who knows how to productize AI. He now even has better reputation for saner policies and privacy, thanks to Twitter. He should be able to spin up AI based search engine in 6-12 months. He can produce AI based Office in similar time frame. All the stars are aligned for him if he has courage to course correct.
The policy seems pretty straightforward:

If you want to build a bunch of units on your property:

1. A certain percentage has to be rented at an affordable rate (for 75 years).

2. If they aren't you pay a 'fee' into an affordability fund based on how much you build.

The fact they the owner claims they want to 'rent' to their kids is a red herring IMO. She wants to build 4 market rate units on her property, and not designate any of them as affordable.
I've got a blue-label PET 2001 in the office. Except for some iffy keys and the internal Datasette, and there's a loose solder joint in the monitor that I've yet to find, it works well. The keycaps are worn but not so worn you can't figure out what keys are what. Picked up a Tapuino I'm trying to do some work with on the secondary cassette port.
Whoever threw too much money at clubhouse at the top valuation should have them start an excluseive, private, invitation only mastodon server. Like clubhouse was before mere mortals could join.
The fact that this is receiving downboats and 'but muh convenience, artists deserve to get fucked over because Spotify found a better way to exploit human psychology!' is truly an orange site moment. I pirate the majority of the music I listen to (and most artists except for super rich mainstream ones would rather their music spread as much as possible than receive literal pennies from a Spotify stream) and buy stuff from Bandcamp when an artist is actually still around and making stuff. I never listen to ads and have all the files saved locally in lossless formats. I've never had a Spotify account for anything other than a podcast that is exclusive to it and have never cared to switch, and can't even use the excuse that I'm too old and stubborn in my ways.
The free tier on Oracle Cloud is nuts. 200GB block storage, 10gb object storage, 24GB RAM 4 core ARM VM, 2 x86 VM's 1GB RAM each. From my experience, it's also really hard to get charged since you have to upgrade your account from a free tier. I haven't been charged one cent in several years.
> you don't want to end up with a generation that cheated their way up without learning anything.

This sounds like kind of a good summary of what we are doing to ourselves as we speak. Case in point: the crypto scandal, the housing bubble etc. A ton of people made out like thieves.
I'm in trouble if anybody asks..
We got really lucky that the crypto industry is not regulated. If it were, the politicians would have gotten the opportunity to bail SBF out. Of course they wouldn’t want all the job losses!
I have this. It’s great except it randomly fails and disconnects or refuses to play. Have tried many updates for multiple years and always the same. I resorted to airplay. Spotify doesn’t want to integrate with others and so the reverse engineered api doesn’t work great
It's OK, even if Elon steps down, Lex Fridman offered to run the show pro bono:

This is a good take and something I needed to be reminded of. I find myself hating Zuckerberg and Musk, etc. but I absolutely want to live in a world where humans have walked on Mars, we have amazing VR tech, and cars all run on quiet and clean electricity. They must have real strength of vision to keep pursuing these things that are impossible level challenges, while the entire world hates them for it.
I mean, this is an owner-occupied property. I can understand not wanting the city to force two random families to live with you.

But in this case the city assessing a luxury tax for such a setup seems pretty reasonable.
It doesn't cost that much when properly configured and on dedicated hardware. My own instance, oc.todon.fr (running since 2017 and with currently ~2500 users), runs on a 5€/month server (HTTP front-end) and less than a quarter of the resources of a 800€ server at home.

Ask HN: I am in my late 20s looking to change careers. Any advice?
Hi HN, I have been feeling very lost and out of place for as long as I can remember (with some temporary periods of feeling belonging). I have made a lot of mistakes, career mistakes. But I am doing slightly above average (by most society standards).

Yet I feel I am not doing justice to my role/calibre. I am thinking of moving full time to becoming a developer (I don't have an engineering degree, but have been learning on my own). But I am unsure and scared. Has anybody been through this? What advice will you give?

> before the masses recognize that the show is dead.

It was widely publicized that the most recent season of Better Call Saul was the end of the series.

I also disagree it was anywhere near as bad as GoT ending, or bad at all.
> Where I live, in a rural area of a red state with a lot of wealth disparity, giving free medical care to anybody absolutely is seen as "socialized medicine". (Of course, there'll be a healthy dose of divisive racial and class politics mixed in to the argument, too.) The reasons behind that opinion are absolutely motivated by lack of understanding, but there are strong political beliefs there as well.

Suburb in a red state here, grew up mostly in rural red America, so I get what you mean. I'm sure there's also a lot of thinking that free ER care is a lot more expansive than it really is, and belief that "welfare types" (ahem, cough, cough, lay-finger-along-side-of-nose) regularly use ERs to get ordinary healthcare for free. As is usually the case, I expect laying out what's actually available and how the mandate actually works tends to soften resistance to it. I'm well aware that the Left does some of this too, but god I wish right-wing media would stop misleading Republicans about how basic things like social-safety-net programs and taxes work. The death of the Fairness Doctrine, however not-entirely-comfortable I may be with the thing, has been a curse on this country, in practice.

> I'd like to see substantive discussion about how the US healthcare "system" really works. This is a detail that a lot of people don't know about or understand. I think the idea that "we already don't let people who can't pay just die" has a good moral argument behind it.

Ugh, tell me about it. I especially think the enormous proportion of medical spending that's already public isn't well-understood enough. Especially since some of those tend to cover some of the most expensive demographics—the elderly, the disabled, soldiers. Failure to grasp how our current system already works leads to those infamous "keep government out of my medicare!" protest signs and, more importantly, failure to appreciate that shifting to cover everyone with one variety or another of government-funded healthcare is actually a far less radical shift than some seem to suppose it is.

Sorry if I pounced on you there, BTW. I could have been less confrontational with that previous post.
Sounds like you don’t own your music either.
I mentioned this on twitter a week or two ago, but in a lot of ways ChatGPT really reminds me of being in college about 10-15 years ago and using Wolfram Alpha a lot. It wasn't difficult back then to put in some challenging math problems or historical questions and get back results I could reference in notes for things.

It's a concern but I feel like it's also just inevitable. There will always be resources that can be used for cheating.

Hopefully students just learn to use these things as a resource rather than a shortcut.
