There was a time in late high school, early university where OSX updates were like Christmas. I’d be so excited for all these new empowerments. There was such wonder and opportunity to be seized.

It's strange that you think that this is so unachievable yet we have things like Bluetooth, WiFi, LoRa and regular cell phone all working with relatively tiny amounts of power and discriminating from the noise generated by other nonparticipants. This would amaze anyone from before the 70s.
Yep! Spun this up over the holiday break, so still lots to do.

> It’s an interpretation because we don’t have any empirical evidence for the other worlds. Science requires evidence, math alone isn’t enough.

By that logic assuming that distant parts of the universe still exist is metaphysics (since it would take many years for any information from there to reach us), yet few people feel the need to call it such.
I believe you're referring to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orion_(satellite)

> The satellites have estimated mass close to 5,200 kg and very large (estimated 100 m diameter)[2] radio reflecting dishes. USA-223 (NROL-32), which is seen as the fifth satellite in the series, is according to NRO director Bruce Carlson "the largest satellite in the world".[3] It is believed that this refers to the diameter of the main antenna, which might be well in excess of 100 m (330 ft).[4]

I've never bothered following the citations so I don't know how true this is, but it's pretty insane if it's real. A 100-meter-diameter satellite! I know it's an unfolding-umbrella-style mesh like you said, but still, that's impressive.
These problems always occur at the junction between technologies with different lifecycles.
Totally agree. Everytime I fly I think about how I'll feel if my bag gets lost forever. I then plan accordingly to minimize the tail risk.
But Apple has had the right idea- they release a new version of their desktop and mobile OSes about once a year. I would surmise that their OS reliability and stability issues have more to do with the switch from Objective-C to Swift than anything else. Heck they change Swift dramatically each year (or they did in the first few years). Swift 2 was RADICALLY different from Swift 1. Swift 3 was radically different from Swift 2...
Hey Mizza, wow that issue is a throwback.

I think I stand by my position. My concerns are still the same, and I don’t think your proposal would’ve changed the outcome for Beaker. I always felt the purpose of the project was to enable more open and hackable networked computing, and so adopting some adverse risk to improve availability felt like the wrong choice. I can understand why other folks with different missions would make a different choice.

I'm not disputing that masks should have been conserved for healthcare professionals. I do dispute that any government official has directly stated that this was reason for the CDC lying. I actually think that would be a huge scandal. That's the source I'm looking for, based on your claim.
I hope so! I did not notice much of a reduction in the anxiety issues after my last long break.

I suspect that a large part of the issue is the different composition of the psychoactive components in today's weed versus what I grew up smoking - old school was what we now derisively call "miss", new school seems to be optimizing for as much THC as possible while also reducing CBD to almost nothing. My state hasn't legalized yet (although there is some faint hope for next year) so I haven't had much opportunity to experiment with different strains and whatnot.

Either way, a while off it will do me some good I think, and of course the money saved isn't to be ignored either.
In BC we regularly get scams like missed delivery, order confirmation for something expensive, or your social insurance number will get cancelled. These are such an annoyance that I started making it into a game instead.

They mostly target the Chinese population, which in bc is quite large, and I'm assuming are ran from China. Each of the calls end with a "press 1 for English and 2 for Chinese". If you choose 1 the line hangs. If you choose 2 you get a Chinese person on the line. Sometimes the message is directly in Chinese and you need to guess the right key. I programmed some diatribe in Chinese in Google translate from my bookmarks toolbar.

Once in a while I get an Indian call center, mostly pretending to be Amazon with an order for an iPhone, which then veers into "someone stole your identity". If you reply with a younger voice, they hang. If I make an old person's voice, they stay with me. The more lost I sound, the harder the catch. I'm playing at keeping them on the line the longest time possible. It's fun cause they employ a few traps like asking for your birthdate then your age, or asking for some piece of information like your SIN a few times to validate you don't BS them. My backstory is getting better and better. It's kind of like beating a boss everytime you pass one.

Nowadays I'm excited when I receive one, because I get to play. But it's only a matter of time before my parents get trapped
I don't know the cause of your specific situation. But with respect to 5400 cancelled flights, I'd be surprised to hear that there's a transportation system (public + private combined) that can handle a sudden and unexpected influx at a time where things are already at peak-capacity (holidays)

Or it might out you as someone who has no idea, because you haven't provided any evidence that such a thing is serious and has any longer term effects, and all of those other things I've mentioned can cause the same issue, yet we don't scream about how aircraft travel is evil because it can disturb menstrual cycles.

Your sources don't back up you original claims that the US said "oh yeah, we totally did that". You've stitched together assertions, hyperbole and half-truths.

IIRC main reason was that annotations are a custom format, and they are basically drawings with highlighter (as opposed to plaintext). I think there were some projects to match them against books and try to extract text, but it didn't work reliably for me. I may be wrong though, maybe things changed since.

That said if you install Koreader on it, then you get proper annotations, and I've been meaning to try to incorporate them in my flow.

It’s not even “the quantity over quality.” Early OS X point releases would get big new features like hardware accelerated compositing. What does Ventura even add? The last big new feature was APFS becoming the default back in 2017.

As someone who cannot manage alcohol (sober four years) id like to ask those of you who get something out of a 30 day abstinence, or find it appealing, what’s the appeal? If you don’t have a problem with drinking, why do you think a 30 day refrain will improve something in your life. If there is benefit, doesn’t this indicate a problem? Or do you think taking 30 days away will fix the problem?

Not trying to be judge mental. This is more like an alien wanting to know how earthlings live kinda thing.

The funny part is that good browsers and smart users are already blocking all of those Google scripts. Then marketing departments end up designing the product around the dubious numbers from only the users that aren't wise enough to be blocking it leading the everyone the wrong direction.
The same is true for some of the more vocal accounts here on HN, as elsewhere.

I don't keep a list of usernames but a few folks talk with authority across a range of topics - both tech and adjacent interests - and when they happen to step into some niche where they obviously don't have the same depth, and yet project the same level of authority while being not entirely correct, it really does recalibrate that "believability index".
I mostly stopped drinking when I started paying attention to when my wife and I would argue.

Most of the time it was when one or both of us had 2 or more drinks. We didn't even need to be tipsy, but just a little bit of a buzz was enough to be a problem for us.

I decided that I didn't like who I was when I'd had alcohol. Specifically, someone who was more willing to fight, and argue. Without alcohol I am generally just interested in peace and respect. With alcohol, I'm much more likely to be willing to poke, prod, and argue.

Good riddance to that chemical.
I may be too cynical, but I can't help but assume that none of them will actually follow through with this unless/until someone gets actually sanctioned for not doing this in a significant way (i.e. something that costs them more than they make from not doing so).

Sotomayor is still on the Court. Barrett replaced Ginsburg, who you’ll notice dissented here. Breyer was also replaced this year (with another liberal).

Copyright is one of those issues that is not necessarily clear‐cut between left and right, but more of an opinion specific to an individual justice. In this case, the majority and the dissents were each roughly evenly split between conservatives and liberals, not along (those) ideological lines.
>First, if a crime was committed, which you have no proof of except accusations from shady or borderline criminal entities, he could very well get prosecuted.

There are literally pictures of him smoking crack. I don't fully remember, but there may have been a video of it as well. Do you think it is a deep fake?

>Second, you can ask to have content removed, nobody is stopping you, no executive orders or legal threats were issued.

That isn't what happened with the Hunter pictures and articles though. The government asked for it to be removed.

> No idea, but I am fairly certain that Biden can't appoint people as board members to companies he does not own.

I never suggested that happened.

> Citation needed.

Joe Biden said it himself: "I'm not going to -- or, we’re not going to give you the billion dollars. They said, you have no authority. You’re not the president. The president said -- I said, call him. I said, I'm telling you, you’re not getting the billion dollars. I said, you’re not getting the billion. I’m going to be leaving here in, I think it was about six hours. I looked at them and said: I'm leaving in six hours. If the prosecutor is not fired, you’re not getting the money. Well, son of a bitch. He got fired. And they put in place someone who was solid at the time."

This was the prosecutor investigating the company Hunter Biden was working at. Perhaps it was just a coincidence, but there was a clear conflict of interest.

> Umm, I take it you took issue with Ivanka's positions and the 2 billion $ deals with the Saudis, yes? I am just asking questions here to make sure you are consistent.

Of course I am against this. The difference is Twitter didn't ban any articles about this like they did with Hunter.

>Also, unlike Ivanka and co(-conspirators), he was __NEVER__ appointed to an official position in the US government.

I don't think this matters. The only reason (as far as I can tell) that Hunter got the job is because his dad was in an official position in the government. No different than the Trumps.

> It does make quite a bit of a difference between inside and outside, don't you think?

No. Corruption is corruption. Criminal behavior is criminal behavior.

>I hope you were proportionally outraged over Ivanka and Jared:

I am proportionally outraged at Ivanka and Jared as I am Hunter. I am not proportionally outraged over the situation since only one was censored by Twitter.
This is just sad. I live in an Indian metro, in an upper middle class neighborhood, and recently saw a pile of plastic burning on the side of our street. This happens infrequently (handful of times in a year), but only because of the pressure from the residents here who can afford to apply power to push it out of our neighborhood.

The smoke is dense, white and spreads quickly. It has a strong smell to it and quickly seeps into adjacent homes (which are 5 storied apartment buildings, so it reaches a lot of people). It gives me a headache that lasts for at least a couple of hours.

I can't even imagine what it would be like to live in Muzaffarnagar (city from article) next to one of these plastic burning facilities if one small pile on my street had such a big impact on my family's wellbeing.

> Around Muzaffarnagar, respiratory problems such as asthma and bronchitis along with eye infections associated with air pollution and the burning of plastic are on the rise, up as much as 30% over the last few years, according to Muzaffarnagar’s chief medical officer.

Mainstream narrative over-indexes on long-term impact of global warming vs. the shorter term health impacts of pollution. This makes sense: when developed countries dictate global media narrative, they're not going to focus on the pollution aspect much because it doesn't impact them in a tangible, day-to-day basis.

But the immediate health impact is a stronger narrative: there are people who are impacted by it every day and are dying. It has a face to it. We need a lot more coverage on this front. Grateful for this article.
Don't sell yourself short (like some here have suggested); You can be a CTO at a small company.

You can pitch something like "Problem Solver who can bring Cross-Disciplinary Knowledge to implementing a Computer-based Solution" followed by actual examples to drive home the point. Don't be constrained by the format (i.e. short elevator pitch, one-page resume etc.) but provide a good summary first followed by longer details via document/email.
It literally is just a better markov chain generator.
The problem isn't the shadow banning/ visibility filtering in my opinion. Though I personally don't agree it's a good thing to artificially suppress speech. The problem is the multiple years of gaslighting by media, and executives of companies saying "We don't shadow ban anyone." If you don't understand why media, government, and corporations working together to craft narratives is a problem I don't really know what to say.
The preferred basis is (roughly) the eigenbasis for the interaction term between the thermal environment responsible for decoherence and the decohering system in question, since those are the states that are robust to thermal noise.

Outside the perturbative regime, there isn't a preferred basis because there aren't any classical observers.
Ah, yes. The definition I tried to use was from Wikipedia, in full: "In mathematics, a set is countable if either it is finite or it can be made in one to one correspondence with the set of natural numbers." I missed the part where it said finite. Thank you for correcting that.

If you take your sequence construction, then by removing duplicates from the sequence, this new sequence would allow finding a "next" element.

One can construct 7-dimensional triangles. So they surely exist (somehow).

> What do the reals have to do with the physical universe?

That's kind of a tangent, but the point is: There is absolutely nothing in the universe that relates to most reals!

Most reals don't "exist" in any meaningful way. So why should we believe they "exist" at all? (Subsets exist for sure, but that's not the point).

Triangles and dimensions exist. One can easily extend this kind of existence to more dimensions. So one can create 7-dimensional triangles. But in contrast one can't, by no means, construct most reals. So my question is: Why should I believe that something that can't be ever "observed" "exists". That's like someone trying to convince me to believe in God…

The relation to the physical world is: If someone would say that "there is something" but it can't be even named (out of principle!), not to mention described meaningfully, most people would likely ignore such a purely made up "thing". Because it would have exactly zero influence on anything that may exist in fact.

The whole idea that there is something like "smooth space" is absurd given how "the true reality" works. Quantum physics tells us that there is no smooth space, and smooth space is actually impossible. But mathematicians seem to still want to use a "leaky abstraction" that has absolutely nothing in common with reality. Like I said, that's like they would strongly believe in God.

Or to phrase it differently: Something that can't be, just can't be.

Nobody can construct most reals. That's by definition. So one would need very very strong arguments to still assume that they "exist" (somehow). But there is no such argument at all afaik. That's what I'm asking actually: Does anybody know any, even remotely, valid argument why we should believe in reals? I didn't find any while researching that.

Mathematics started as a way to precisely describe "what can exist". But most reals can't be described in any way. So my conclusion would be that they're not part of any valid description of "what can exist".

But as most mathematicians seem to believe in reals I wanted to know why it's like that. What do I miss? Where does this faith come form?

You’re right! I meant to say they can’t legally do it but Five Eyes helps them do it legally:

In other words, the NSA can only spy where it is explicitly granted permission to do so by statute. Citizens concerned about surveillance do not have to answer the question, "what law restricts the NSA's spying?" Rather, the government is required to supply an answer to the question "what law permits the NSA to spy?"

Your getting downvoted a lot - but as someone who has been racking up north of 100k miles/year for five years pre-pandemic (somewhat less now) - anytime I checked luggage I essentially needed to be mentally and emotionally prepared to say goodbye to it. I booked my tickets with Chase Sapphire which has very good missing luggage/toiletries/etc... insurance - and had my luggage go missing five times in as many years - though, I will say, all five times I had the airline deliver it to my destination hotel within 48 hours.

Regardless - don't check anything you aren't prepared to say goodbye to.

My partner and I are almost done with our dry December (the month was chosen for personal reasons). Each of us were technically overconsumers of alcohol (2 drinks a night on average) before this month. Throughout the month we’ve both gone through differing intensities of emotions as our minds and bodies adjusted to not drinking. Stress hormones and the dopamine system are affected by drinking, so perhaps we experienced some reversion back to normalcy in either or both. I read this article and my feelings align with everything written; my view on alcohol has changed, hopefully for good.
