Ok, a little drunk so I will tell you how I really feel.

You people care so much about light pollution, the environment and the future of humanity so much. Oh how grand and amazing of a person you must be.

Have you considered that many if not most humans endure enough suffering to not give a shit about humanity being destroyed you along with it? You care so much about the planet but the planet will be fine, it is humanity that is screwed.

So why should individuals that live their entire lives in suffering because of the very conditions humanity as a collective has encouraged and enacted give a shit about humanity?

You all know what is right like everyone else and you made your choice on what to be concerned about. So enjoy the fruits of your labour like everyone else!

It's a valid neutral description, labeling it "Russian propaganda" is a useless attack that distracts from the main point and topic.
In the enterprise key management can become a bitch really quickly. Good luck updating 10.000 servers every time an admin leaves.

For them ssh certificates are much better because you can simply revoke them, and new certs don't have to be added to each server.

At home I still use keys though, but as an enterprise admin I see the issues. Even at home it's kinda annoying having to add a new yubikey to 20 servers.

You tried to make that argument, 2 comments ago, with a trivial statistical argument that fell apart the moment anyone breathed on it. Given the motte has fallen, it seems futile to make a stand at the bailey, right? I don't even know how much we disagree about this fuzzy, subjective values discussion here; I'm just interested in the argument I responded to originally.

The tax code is the underlying ruleset.

The UX can be easy or hard, to input data that meets said ruleset.

Even with a complex tax code, you could still fill in three values and get your correct result
In the US you do not need to file if you are confident you don’t owe the IRS money, or if they owe you money and you don’t want the hassle to get it back. If you are able to setup withholdings to exactly match what you owe there is no reason to file. I have skipped filing a few times.

This explains the units of measuring digital information and the relationships between each other.
In the US, at least, a confession is always considered sufficient evidence. It probably shouldn't be, since interrogators have managed to get people to confess to crimes that evidence was later found to exonerate.
yeah I thought it was a hint lol, cool

> If the premise were true, crime should have gone down in the face of the red-hot labor market we had been experiencing over the last few years.

The rising-tide "red-hot labor market" didn't lift all boats, the pandemic severely impacted service industry workers, inflation / cost of living impacts low income people far more than anyone else, wealth consolidated at an extremely accelerated pace during the pandemic...

Which part of "the US has the highest incarceration rate in the world" did you not understand?

The nordic countries are particularly successful at this.

Turns out that universal healthcare (including proper mental health services), social safety support systems, and a detention systems working to help people before putting them back into society, work better than just shoving people into a concrete cube and tossing them out on the street into a society heavily stacked against them with a parole officer breathing down their neck. Gee, I wonder why they return to crime here?

That hasn't been the case for me. I end up owing come tax time every year, and yet every time, after having paid what is owed, months later they give me a small refund anyways. Now I know where I can save money on my taxes, and I've done it before, but it's the savings are so small that it's not even worth the time doing. Yet, it's about what they give me in the refund. Why didn't they just keep it, especially given it's such a small amount?
Name calling and complaining through the guise of scholarly work.

And the primary evidence used to determine the worth of a job in this study is self reported job satisfaction? I think that is a pretty flimsy argument. These researchers need to perhaps check their biases as they are most certainly faculty themselves.

I think there are a lot of people in the for profit world that have pretty poor job satisfaction, but I bet the contribute a great deal to the bottom line.

Faculty feel like they are losing control of the university and they are right. But the reason they are losing control is not because of some ruling oligarchy or because people like to just create “bullshit jobs,” but because the expectations of college and universities have changed dramatically. Faculty can hate it all they want, but it is the reality of today.

With that said, I sympathize with low faculty salary particularly as it pertains to adjuncts and other non-tenure track faculty. Faculty should, generally, be paid more. That wouldn’t be hard for many universities, but supply and demand. Being a professor still comes with a lot of prestige and perks so in most fields there is no shortage of adjuncts to fill in.
Is this something one could try to quickly implement alongside NanoGPT? Seems like a pretty straightforward, concrete idea, once you decide where you want those tokens to fit into downstream attention layer inputs. Evaluating relative performance on a small scale could give indication of if it's worth trying at larger scales, unless it's one of those things that doesn't help until your model is huge.

I’m guessing something like `chown root ~/.bash*` would prevent that, if all the folders in your PATH are owned by root.
Today I learned that there's a name for the kind of development I do naturally. Modeling my input and output types first is so much more effective at helping me to develop my mental model of the program. I often catch "bugs" before I've started writing code just by thinking about how the data flow will work.
Not necessarily a career coach, but as a new software engineer I have had a few users on HN take the time to talk through career decisions over zoom with me. It actually led to my first job out of college.
In my opinion, its a mixture of both. They don't have trash pickups in most places. So pretty much your only option to get rid of household trash is to burn it or dump it somewhere. And because there's no trashcans anywhere in public, people just toss trash wherever they like. Think about what your neighborhood would look like if there was no waste management services provided.
How about words that are semantically the same, or similar? I also feel like GPT models output "tangential" phrases, though unsure exactly why that would be...

Not necessarily, a lot of people have avoided flu vaccines for a long time.

Also vaccine hesitancy is a centuries old phenomenon at this point. And the original (retracted) MMR vaccine / autism paper was from like 1998.

Yes but the OP was referring to SSH keys being eschewed by the enterprise. I assume they didn't consider certificates part of this category.

For enterprise the certificates are a far better option. Or s full blown IDP of course.

When I owned and operated a computer store about 30 years ago I ran into a lady that had an interest in computers. She was a bartender at a local dive. Knew nothing of technology. I taught her what I knew and gave her some experience out in the field for a couple of years. She’s now the Emergency Manager for a pretty populous county. At first it’s all about connections then it’s up to you.
Just fyi: they usually (but not always) do that incomplete sentence and bad spelling/grammar on purpose, so as to lure less "smart" people into pwnage (myself included lmao)
There is a tendency by some to take a story like this one and insinuate that all prosecutions are wrongful ones and all prosecutors guilty of malpractice etc. Kudos to this article's authors or editors for acknowledging the reality that not all cases are "witch hunts" and that sometimes there are "real witches" (or real monsters I'd prefer to call them).

For the sake of balance (in these comments), sadly some similar incidents have been very real and the wheels of justice very slow: https://www.texasmonthly.com/true-crime/how-san-antonio-baby...
> Now I don't actually have proof that interest rates directly affect Google (who is probably flush with cash/very profitable/has high margins/has lots of money coming in).

It affects everyone. When interest rates increase, the risk-free rate of return is much higher than when interest rates were 0. That means the ROI of each incremental dollar needs to be higher than it previously was, and when companies have a lot of projects with low risk-adjusted returns, they'll axe those.
+1. I find them to be the least-bad option. They have all the forms I need even for a moderately complicated tax situation. They're cheap. And most importantly they aren't one of the evil companies lobbying for more complicated tax code (Intuit and H&R Block) .

On my iPhone, when I click on home links (let's say Webhooks & notifications), I'm redirected to the middle of the target page. I'm sure it's a small bug, but it's kind of sad that basic navigation is half broken. On my pet documentation site [1], I've chosen the boring way:

- fully static HTML (Jekyll)

- minimal JavaScript (especially no tracking)

- search is local

I find my site quite reactive without complicated setup and can focus on the doc content. It's also perfect for SEO, "for free"...

Yeah. When you start your own business, that should be when you talk to an accountant. Well, maybe as soon as you think you'll make enough money to pay taxes. It saves you a world of heartache.

Surely this would be the compiler's job to emit the right instructions.

I mean, they can do things that make it easier or harder, but satisfying a language spec isn't what they do (unless you want to count an ISA as a language spec, which it kind of is).
Right but then it would not be the same as in those other languages which use fat arrow anyway.

Another syntax for pattern-matching could be simply ':' instead of the arrow.

In the early days of Smalltalk the Smalltalk return statement was simply '^'. That could also be suitable for pattern matching. The idea would be that the switch statement returns something meaning pushing it up from the expression to whoever called it. So '^' might be good for that. Whereas pushing the results to the right to the next expression could be ->.

Just my preferences.

I have the "hide comments section" turned on my ad blocker. Makes the internet a much nicer place in general on a lot of general news/info type sites that aren't explicitly for discussion (eg. HN, Reddit).

I was pretty excited a couple of years back when some bigger news sites explicitly turned off their comments saying they only generated distracting noise and added no value.

Then, after that I can rigorously filter what I see - on Reddit I have multireddits that I care about, and set those to Home using Apollo to browse, and I keep only generally positive sub-reddits in there.

I think there's huge value in going out of you way to block negative noise in bulk. Same reason I deleted Facebook - don't invite in the noise, and don't engage with trolls.

It's the same old strategy - the only way to win is not to play.

I once had a shoulder / joint problem that had lingered for a couple of weeks. Normal sort of thing that comes up from time to time in training. But I was going out of country and had to get a bunch of vaccines. They loaded me up with like 5 or 6 shots at the visit. Weirdly, after getting a couple of shots in the arm, I noticed that the next day my shoulder issue was totally gone. Could be coincidence, but at the time I got the impression that the extra temporary inflammation gave my body enough of a push to just go in there and fix it.
> Do yourself a favor, try to visit a really dark place, ideally with binoculars and a sky map and you’ll feel again connected with the Cosmos.

Obvious caveat: bring light with you, enough to comfortably see at least 10m ahead when you're walking.

Just as many of us are not used to dark skies anymore, we also seriously underestimate how dark it is in places with no habitations/street light and the moon is not out. I sometimes found myself in forests with almost no visibility if I cut my torchlight.
What I did was use fedifinder to find all the people I already followed on Twitter and bootstrapped my account that way. It shows you what the most common instance is among the people you follow which is a good recommendation to choose that for signup, and then you can naturally find other people to follow through their boosts.

Also you don't have to fret about what instance you start off on. I started with one of the generic instances and then after a week of lurking I migrated my account to an instance that I wanted to join (which moves over all your followers/followings but not your posts)
I always liked Debian’s really. The first thing it does is make one system call to see if you can open a file in /etc with write permissions. If you can’t then it crashes immediately without doing anything else. The attack surface is very small.

sudo’s notion of some people being able to do some things but not others just doesn’t seem very relevant these days, and never really sat nicely with me in my multi user Unix host days either. I was much more in favor of giving people multiple system accounts and letting the system auth (ssh) handle who can do what.

Now of course we all have umpteen complete hosts each, and the security boundaries are at the virtualisation layer. Passwordless sudo all ‘round!

It is approximately always the case for international flights.
If keeping tax codes complex was the same concept as keeping the process of electronic filing complex, what would be the point anyone buying Intuit software to do it? By your logic, it would still be just as complex anyway.
The tax code is kept complicated in order to make carve outs for special interest groups. Intuit has no way of influencing real estate, trust, investment, alimony, disability, etc. tax regulations. Intuit profits from a complicated tax code but it’s not like their lobbying is what makes the estate and inheritance tax code complicated.

They surely want to make filing as complicated as possible so they can streamline it for you. Intuit surely lobbies to prevent the IRS from advertising free tax filing options. I’m sure they would like the forms to be as arcane as possible but I don’t think that congress has anything to do with the layout of the forms and worksheets.
I think you are mistaking a pro-science bias for a left-wrong bias.

Considering they basically do this for the simplest tax forms: why are we supposed to assume Spain has a better system again? Is this just the typical “European = better” stance so prevalent online?
You'd be surprised just how visible the night is on a full moon.
IRS is very understanding, but I wouldn't suggest this. I have gotten plenty of letters from the IRS and they are always stressful.

The IRS has always responded in a really positive way, so it is really worth talking to them (well, unless you think you may be in real legal trouble... I guess "don't talk to the cops" applies here too...) if you're in the situation where you think "oh, yeah I messed up" or "oh, yeah they messed up" it's probably best to just reply... but yeah if you think it is serious talk to a tax attorney... (not an accountant, which isn't a tax attorney).

The "they messed up" for me was a crypto thing, where I actually took a small net loss, and didn't file (because you don't need to, for capital losses, from my understanding, though I guess you should) and they thought I took some insane gain b/c of the $ value of the trades.

I just mailed them the trades, said "I didn't submit the form for this b/c I didn't think I needed to for a loss" and they said "yay, thanks, see ya" a bit later. Positive experience.

> Lithium is harder to extract per power unit though, as Uranium is incredibly power dense.

Y'all just love making up lies out of whole cloth. This is incredibly wrong and you didn't even consider the idea of checking before deciding it was true. Stanning for nuclear does involve incredible density but it's not power or energy density.

Weight for weight, the amount of lithium you need for a 1kW renewable system with diurnal storage (80-160g/kWh for 8-12kWh to provide for 1kW) and the amount of Uranium you need for 1kW of nuclear reactor (45-60MWd/kg @ 32% thermal efficiency with a 7.4:1 tails/fuel ratio with a 3-6 year fuel cycle) are about the same: Roughly 1kg.

The lithium battery will last 2-4x as long as the Uranium fuel (12-20 years vs 3-6).

At 1-7% the lithium ore is 1-2 orders of magnitude more concentrated than the 0.01-0.7% of most Uranium deposits (Canada's untapped high yield deposits are about the same as good lithium ore but they are deep underground, unique, and only a tiny fraction of what would be needed). The typical ore mined in a mass expansion scenario (0.01-0.03%) would have an energy density between that of coal and crude oil.

Mining for the uranium would involve around 100-1000x the quantity of mined or leached ore and tens to hundreds of times as much leaching chemical.

The Uranium extraction process doesn't end at the mill. Enrichment is just as involved as brine extraction. The end product of the Uranium fuel costs twice as much as an LFP grid battery and has about the same embodied energy per joule delivered (or double if from an underground or deep open pit mine).

Diurnal lithium battery storage is irrelevant where good pumped hydro is available, and is far more than is needed to reach 85-90% VRE (which can be done with 3 hours).

Early uranium was also hard to find, then tens of billions were spent trying to find more. There are fairly reliable methods of estimating how much hasn't been found based on the rate of finding it vs. the effort spent and the answer is there's not a lot undiscovered at concentrations that make fuel affordable. It's also largely irrelevant because any you find after you open your 3-8TW of nuclear plants (which are somehow built in 12 years) is not going to be developed before they all run out.
Another example here is how much cheaper round trip tickets get when they cover a Saturday night.

Starting a workflow is currently ~40ms, and I think we’ll be able to get down to 10ms this year. How long it takes to complete depends on how many persisted steps it takes (and whether it has to wait on an external event). The only steps that are persisted are workflow api calls like sleep(), startChildWorkflow(), or calling code that might fail (ie “Activity”, like a network request).
