Every kids show are made so parents would let them watch. One could argue that a show without sexual innuendo would score better. So, I’m not sure if the decision to include that was really to get parents onboard.

I was suggesting Link’s behaviour is no longer socially acceptable. Not sure if that anime has a character similar to Link. Does it? If it does and it’s very popular I’d be amazed it’s not being called off more often.

That howling wolf cartoon is also a bit dated. It objectifies women. Regarding Link’s behaviour, I’m not sure people really thought he was a moron at the time. Maybe a bit of a loser at times, but his behaviour was not really frowned upon at the time. Growing up I’ve met plenty of men that would make the same kind of jokes and behave in very similar fashion and everyone thought it was funny.
If its not clear to you that the FDA was captured by big business years ago, I dunno how to help you. Get off the Facebook and tiktok. Forget homophobia and racism, your country is being stolen out from under you.
The sweeping success was the cruelty though; whilst warfare was common in Europe despite relatively stable boundaries and low-level massacres of individual garrisons that refused to surrender were not uncommon (but also generally regarded as cruel), the murder of millions of people and deaths of tens of millions of people as a direct result of the targeting of their food supplies within a generation was unprecedented.

It's not like we generally have positive views of comparable scale "sweeping successes" exported from Europe like the Conquistadors or transatlantic slave trade
Peak denialism. I and thousands of others use GPT's general creative intelligence, problem-solving skills and ability to manipulate abstract thoughts daily.

Logically thinking the only way that ChatGPT could do well on a test of reasoning without engaging in reasoning is if the test is useless as a test of ability to reason.

Since humans use this test to select people with good reasoning skills, why do you think it is an inappropriate test for a robot?
well, they did show up deep in Europe and murder a lot of people, more than "usual", right? Sure the Europeans next showed up all over the world and did more things, but at least that would explain the shock?
Living in Germany, I'm sure you see that that's neither easy nor something that happens automatically. Parallel societies exist and are growing.

Maybe it would be different if you didn't have large cultural groups who could form them?
But then again, there aren't any Polish parallel societies in Germany (and ~2% immigrated or have an ancestor that came from Poland), and after a generation, you can only tell them apart from the rest of the population by their last name.
I think that people who don't want kids rarely state their real reasons in public. And same goes for the decision to have kids.

Both groups state what they consider to be socially appropriate reasons. They might not be entirely made up, but both groups keep the remaining deeply personal reasons for themselves. They reveal them only if they feel very safe.
Selling is not extortion, no. That's not what I claimed. But did you read the quote?

> mold stays in AGPL, but _we claim AGPL propagates to the linker's output_ [...] I don't know if this claim will hold in court, but just buying a sold license would be much easier than using mold in an AGPL-incompatible way and challenging the claim in court.

Sounds like protection money to me
They didn't blame the anti malware. In the blog post[0] all they say is

> This machine was compromised on December 16, 2022. The malware was not detected by our antivirus software

That's not blaming that's telling people that their antivirus didn't detect it. If that wasn't there, people would be talking about why they didn't use X antivirus which would probably detect it.

> CircleCI have sufficient logging, however, failed to do fraud analysis to detect irregular access.

This is a significant move of the goalposts. Of course CircleCI messed up, but to go back to the OP's point of "nobody should have that much access to production", well that's just not true.

As mentioned here [1], the tweets received via the API do not contain the ads, so third-party clients usually don’t display them. Twitter never tried - so a better and probably more effective change would have been to include the sponsored messages in the API stream and have third party clients display them. I doubt that many clients would have actively filtered them, and doing so could have been grounds for revoking their API keys.

Not sure how a bunch of static pages for developer API docs would reduce load. Compared to the load of actually using the API, it’s minuscule.
You can't frame rules to capture something like "expertise" which has an infinite scope. I don't know how to express it, but it feels wrong. If you could frame such rules then the subject under consideration might be so trivial, making the whole exercise of tagging pointless.

Or maybe you mean you want people to be able to share credentials like a degree and claim expertise without us having to do the extra work of judging the quality of those qualifications?
Given that no bugs exist, it's not possible to get inconsistencies by installing packages in random order because they declare their dependencies. If no bugs existed we would not need updates at all...
Their empire was as short lived as it were vast. Many local rulers were not subdued into a uniform bureaucracy. Cultural contributions were equally absent.

The Mongolians brought death and failed to have the literacy to write themselves as the victors.

phoronix is notoriously bad in benchmarks of BSD family.
I don't know much about Net/Open/Drgonfly, but FreeBSD has very conservative settings by default, and Pgoronix never change defaults. FreeBSD can be tuned to be much faster for almost any Phoronix benchmark.
I have actually used SAT solver before but I have no idea how to translate this into a SAT problem. I know it is too much to ask you to do it for me but maybe you can give me a hint (or link) on how to translate problems that deal with numbers into boolean expression that can be solved by a SAT solver.

Sure, we can keep pretending this I guess.
Have you traveled?

It’s a bit of a clichè but backpacking Europe left me feeling a lot more confident.

Deutsche Bahn has a great English language user interface and Hostelworld is great for avoiding having your Eurotrip going all Eli Roth.

Learning to rapidly acclimate to a shared space, to navigate a foreign city on various mental states, and possibly even tussle with a foreign intelligence service.

Does anyone know what the bearings are like on these? Do they last 20 years or need to be replaced and they don’t count that?
Very little happened in those 300k years which is why we survived so long. There are a lot more human created existential threats now than 500years ago such as climate change and nuclear weapons.

If shit goes wrong enough just once the next 400M years we have a nuclear war on our hands. Even extremely low probabilities are likely to occur over such long time ranges.

Add to that that bootstrapping a new complex society like we have now is going to be a lot harder without easily accessible fossil fuels and it seems highly unlikely that we will survive in such a way that we could save life on earth from some future crisis.
Not just professional malware developers. Any script kiddie can pay 10 bucks to make their virus undetectable.

A human doing the same SATs will test roughly the same way every time.

ChatGPT has achieved 80% in this user's run, will refuse to play at all the next run, will get 45% the following run etc.

Stochastic randomisation makes the chatbot useful and provides these moments of impressive capability, it also means unlike humans that capability is in no way consistent.

Why is it that an open cpu can be developed but not an open gpu?

A GPU as I understand it is simpler than a cpu, but parallel. That to me seems like it would lower barriers to entry. But that obviously isn't the case, so I must be missing something.
Is that the reason Ubuntu installs half updates and breaking the system the last few months? Three times now the kernel was updated but not the nVidia modules, leaving the user with a system without the actual graphics drivers. And once the wrong kernel was installed for an unknown reason (oem package installed, but I never selected it).

After a manual update it worked once again. Between the update and the fix there might be a few days in between tho as the updates were automatically installed, but the effect/issue can only be seen after a restart.
You can build things in life, or you can consume them. You can build a business, a family, a career in sports or arts, whatever it is that interests you and you work towards that goal.

Everybody does a little bit of both, some people do one more preponderantly than the other. My experience is that drug users do less building and more consuming. Carpe diem philosophy and all that. This second article seems to reinforce that.

Nothing wrong with this way of life, if it brings fulfilment to the author, more power to her, but I seek other kind of people.
How about MorphOS? Turns it into a high end Amiga.
Designing for failure seems unlikely here. I think they just wanted lots of capacitance and a low ESR. Lots of capacitors is a cheap way to get that.
> That requires client-side SSL authentication,

I do not think it requires client side SSL. See: https://engineering.salesforce.com/tls-fingerprinting-with-j...

What is been fingerprinted is the TLS negotiation between client and server.
I doubt it, I don't have one for my early 2000s vehicles but for my early 90s vehicles it's a boon. I think they stopped printing and moved to online. Perhaps it was an IP fear that led to them getting less detailed?

But the 1991 Nissan Patrol manual for instance doesn't show how to reflow your injectors. It does however indicate you can use a fish scale to measure the force of the throw for the steering swivel hub so you can decide if you need to add or remove shims from the king pin bearings. Rebuilding this hub and even the diff is described.

Banking is politics, not engineering - actually a form of narrative control which is not based on anything except persuasion and power.

The fact that numbers appear to be involved changes nothing.

It's perfectly reasonable to ask if banks are doing what they claim to be doing.

Especially given the banking sector's very poor record of creating widespread stable prosperity through straightforwardness and integrity.
As another comment pointed out elsewhere you are not supposed to touch /etc/machine-id to control apt. It has its own Apt::Machine-ID you can change without breaking anything else.
Yeah, I use it too and I'm a big fan of ChatGPT and the other recent ML tools but I'm not under the illusion that this is intelligent machine.

The test is not useless, the test's use case is to create a standardised datapoint to pick people to limited spots. That' what the test does, you need to attach false attributes to the test(like measures intelligence) to associate these attributes to the machine and this is a fallacy because although the test probably says something about the intelligence of the human, it does it by measuring meta attributes of the intelligence of the human(like speed of solving problems that the human was supposed to train on).

This is also why there is the "Goodhart's law" phenomenon where in this case students instead of learning physics might start putting all their effort on learning to solve physics tests and you end up with students with very high scores in physics but with no understanding of physics.

Why would you do that? Put them on an encrypted usb and put the usb in a safe place.

(If you’re a student, one hack I found was that on unixy things like NFS, they often don’t make full use of the physical hard drives, so find a machine with one you can write to and put your… Linux ISOs… there… then SFTP or whatever in as needed.

(Security through obscurity isn’t always bad, just be sure you don’t lose your Veracrypt keys since you will want to put everything in one encrypted volume and only decrypt locally.)
I’m talking about commercial banks themselves being in the process of creating money, which in the UK was indeed not an established fact until the 2000s. I’m on my phone but I remember reading about that in an Economist issue a few years ago, I’ll try to find it once I get in front of a computer.

Later edit: Found an Economist review [1] of this article/book itself, which I think it’s not what I had in mind but close enough:

> This often-cited short paper lucidly explains how commercial banks create money and central banks influence that process. It dispels many common misconceptions about money. For instance, most introductory economic textbooks say that commercial banks lend out the money that savers deposit in them. In fact banks can lend money and create corresponding deposits even without savings flowing in–in other words, banks are quite literally creating “new money” when they make a loan and a corresponding deposit.

Most probably you were thinking about Central Bank money creation, or, if not, those introductory economy courses seem to have not had any effect on the educated masses, hence why The Economist still has to re-iterate to its educated readers how money creation works.

> FWIW I remember disliking the Zelda series at the time, went back and watched it when I was in my early 20s and remember liking it ironically (so-bad-it's-good), and watching scenes from it again now, I think maybe I was too generous in my 20s

Yeah, that's what growing up is usually like, there are a lot of products that I've re-watched over the years and completely changed my mind on them.

Take as one example "The Wizard" or "Thrashin'" were the good guy was a young Josh Brolin (LOL)

https://editorial01.shutterstock.com/preview-440/5871775c/6e...

but the real skater heroes (Caballero, Tony Hawk, Hosoi) were depicted as the bad guys

It is unconceivable today because that idea of the white blonde guy from a good family that gets all the girls is a Republican parents of Reagan era's dream and luckily died with him, people who actually loved skate culture and made it popular hated that life style.

Skateboarding is now pretty normal, my t-shirt from the early 90s "skateboarding is not a crime" would make people laugh today.

that's why I believe we should not judge the things of the past with today's standards, because we are totally different people and live in a totally different society.

We know what was back then, but we couldn't possibly imagine what would be like in the future.

And there are also many things kids of today don't even consider because they are not pop, they are not fresh, they don't talk about them at school.

I've watched a lot of stuff only because it was what other kids constantly talked about, but did not really like them, but didn't say.

In 20 years times most of what kids look at today will be considered "trash that did not age very well".

So, to conclude, thanks god many things from the 80s did not live up to their past fortunes, because they were really bad and reflected an US-centric culture that wasn't so not-to-be-missed after all.

They can use hardware wallets for digital signing the operations, and keep encryption keys offline, split the keys to make sure that there's no 1 person that can access it.

Screening isn't really helpful because it isn't good enough. We find all of these lesions, but the vast majority don't result in anything that needs treated nor do they appear to have symptoms. They are just there. So right now, we just watch them. I'm guessing if we knew how common they were, could better tell between normal and cancerous, or heck, even knew why they were so common, we could do better.

But we just aren't there yet.

And unfortunately, this is the case for a number or screenings - and is a downside of some routine screenings. I keep hoping that once we understand a variety of cancer better, this will improve.

FWIW, mine was found on a CT scan and all the monitoring was on an MRI - and both expensive (thankfully the out of pocket costs for healthcare here are low) and uncomfortable for some folks.

Ask HN: chatGPT but for a company's knowledge base?
We're currently looking for a suitable knowledge management tool and after being blown away by chatGPT's comprehension of natural language, I'm wondering if something exists that:

- uses a language model to improve discoverability

- is GDPR compliant (ideally open-source or self hosted)

- does not make stuff up but links to the relevant knowledge base article

- supports versioning of articles

- simple text based format (like markdown)
I don't care what other people do. I just share perspectives. It's okay to disagree. Thanks for sharing yours.

In my experience, you can fake a change, but actually emboding it is not possible. I.e. you can learn to become extrovert, but you won’t enjoy it, it will require a lot of effort from you (as everything that is forced) and you’ll revert to your natural self anyway. All in all, it’s better to find how to leverage one’s strengths instead of trying to become someone else.

I love this! I especially love Ralph’s clarity of thought and his delivery of complex ideas through such simple writings and drawings.

And the best part is: I can imagine how much work each one of his article takes! Mainly because I have tried writing in a manner similar to Ralph’s myself [1], and I found it is not easy to articulate complex topics in an easy-to-digest manner. Drawings help to lower the barrier to understanding, and Ralph knows this very well.

virt-clone only takes care of the libvirt config but won't touch unique identifiers in your disk image.

/etc/machine-id isn't the only thing to worry about when duplicating a VM - think SSH host key, DHCP leases, various filesystem UUIDs, log files, MAC addresses in ifcfg-* files and udev-persistent-net rules...

You can use virt-sysprep[1] to clean up a disk image.

China (aka East Taiwan) makes cheap shit. If you have money you can afford the better manufactured stuff from non tofu-dreg countries.

We need to divulge from China a much as possible and many companies are. It is not ethical to do business with a country that has concentration camps. Hopefully one day the ROC will reclaim power over China and clean all that up.

Yes, Linux does a lot better (haven't tried that specific script, but have done a lot of similar things), but I've gotten speed improvements with similar use of SQLite there too, especially when dealing with a lot of files in the same directory.
NixOS has a related problem in that you can't set the machine's MAC address without a hack:

# Hack: Change the default MAC address after network but before dhcpcd runs
systemd.services.setmacaddr = {
script = ''
/run/current-system/sw/bin/ip link set dev eth0 address ${macaddr}
/run/current-system/sw/bin/systemctl stop dhcpcd.service
/run/current-system/sw/bin/ip addr flush eth0
/run/current-system/sw/bin/systemctl start dhcpcd.service
'';
wantedBy = [ "basic.target" ];
after = [ "dhcpcd.service" ];
};

If you don't do this, it uses some black magic to decide the MAC address based on various hardware, making system migration and maintenance a nightmare.
