The thrust of their point is that the time spent engaging isn’t worth it for the person debating, not whether it does or doesn’t impact the perspectives on those that view the debate.
It probably isn't helpful, but updates do work for me on the ancient android phone I've got apps on (Markor, Simple Gallery Pro, NewPipe). Maybe they've fixed it?

Hmm in the 50s people were poorer yes but everyone could buy a house with a garden and actually on one wage only because the wife wouldn't work.

I totally agree hosting parties at home is much more problematic as people live closer together and get annoyed. I can see it around me a lot. I live in a major partying neighborhood (50m from the most infamous square in town for noise) and I don't care about the noise because it makes me feel good hearing people having fun. But my neighbors hate it. And most of them have moved here in the last decade knowing full well what they were getting into.

When you have a free standing house it's really a different story.
Thanks for your response. I liked it because its lower resource usage than Defender, and mostly stayed out of the way. I'll have to take stock of Defender and see how it is again.
On dvorak they're also mostly on the home row (except d), and the split is even 2-2 for both.

This strange behavior by Germany about tanks, and the Western media theatrics, makes no logical sense. Firstly, neighboring NATO countries have been giving Ukraine T-72 type tanks from almost the beginning. NATO countries have already been supplying tanks to Ukraine.

Several NATO countries have already and have agreed to supply even more armored, self propelled howitzers, rocket launchers, and infantry fighting vehicles too. In the huge cluster of heavy arms already being supplied, adding Western tanks into the mix should make no difference.

It's like when they had to switch from the 152 mm Soviet caliber to the NATO 155 mm caliber howitzers, in order to supply Ukraine. It's just a matter of logistics and supply. At some point, Ukraine has to switch from old T-72 tanks to Western tanks, because that is what NATO presently has and what they can get.

I thought the "real line" was modern Western aircraft, like F-16s or A-10s (which would be eyebrow raising). Though somehow, the possible use of Soviet era MiGs from Ukraine and ex-Soviet countries to strike across the border are perceived as non-threatening.

If Germany wants to keep "its hands clean", though I don't see how based on all the other weapons and help supplied, they simply can give permission for other countries with their tanks to send them to Ukraine. Then Germany can say they didn't send their tanks, but rather those other countries with German-made tanks did so. If that even makes a difference or any sense.

Anyway, seems like Poland's patience with this weird political dancing is about to end and they will send their German Leopard tanks to Ukraine. Poland appears to have nothing to lose, because they have bought American and Korean tanks as replacements.

> For many car owners, their vehicle is an extension of their personality — and as such they customize it to reflect their individuality and uniqueness. That’s particularly true for young car enthusiasts ages 16 to 24, who spend $7.2 billion each year customizing their vehicles, according to a recent study by the Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA). “More than 7.9 million young people customize, modify or upgrade their vehicles each year,” says SEMA Director-Market Research Gavin Knapp. “Their vehicles not only help them get from A to B, they are also an integral part of their social lives.

I see this also in Spain. A recent party I was at had 15 people in the age range from 21 to 70+. Really great to see this.
Sounds like a great way to desensitize people to very important security warnings (which will have similar prompts for passwords) and to discourage backups (make it more annoying).
Just to be clear, Free File Fillable Forms is not run by the IRS, but by a private-sector vendor that is part of the Free File Alliance. I believe it's been run by Intuit and H&R Block at various points, but the current provider seems to be one I hadn't heard of (OnLine Taxes). I don't know the full chain of events and obligations, but my understanding is that there's an agreement in place that the IRS will not provide an in-house e-filing solution for individuals as long as the Free File Alliance continues to provide the Free File program (including Fillable Forms).

> The size of the training data far exceeds the size of the model's weights.

I'm not expecting strict recall but I imagine there is a non-insignificant amount of text in the training data about cysts relative to other entities in the "medical genre" as cysts of all form are one of the most common medical conditions and would be discussed, so I would have expected more probable sequences than the one generated.

Doesn't this alsois then also raises the question of what parameter-corpus size works best? At 120b parameters to 106b tokens Galactica was still hallucinating quite a bit.

> What do you mean? It got _very_ close to the correct answer. One useful thing to know is that GPT-3 cannot "go back" and correct early mistakes. This may have happened here.

I meant that with the negation it became a physical impossibility and therefore very incorrect, but if not negated it would be a correct statement. Your explanation sounds right in this instance, at some point it decided to negate the sentence and it went from being correct (although not relevant to the prompt) to an incorrect statement.

This also suggests to me that ChatGPT doesn't have a good enough understanding of negation. This is a challenge for many models in the medical domain as the frequency of negated statements is much higher than in general texts, but very intuitive for any human.

I think part of the problem is ChatGPT works so well most of the time I get surprised when it fails in seemingly obvious ways, granted to someone with expertise in the field. It's interesting to probe.

What was the point of this post? No, this program isn't a replacement for sudo; it's closer to a reimplementation of su. The post links to 3 CVEs and talks about Rust, but only one of the CVEs was a memory safety bug, the others are a logic error and a race condition, neither of which are protected by Rust (sadly).

Fiduciary duty is more what you call guidelines than rules. It’s there to a) prevent blatant fraud; misguided/rash/anti-shareholder-sentiment decisions are not prosecutable, and b) give a board a reason to oust someone. The former requires a paper trail along the lines of “I’m liking my own pockets at the expense of other shareholders”, and as you said the latter is not a danger for them.
It doesn't make sense to be on that page because it's not a technique to make GPT better answer a prompt.

What you are suggesting is an abstraction layer higher. Figuring out what your prompt should do is different from trying to make a prompt more reliable.
You could use AuthorizedKeysCommand or some other method to manage your keys in one central place.
Yes, I've personally been there. It is all the fracking and oil companies being allowed to simply burn off all the excess gas coming out of the wells in order to get the "more valuable" oil. They could invest in small pipelines to transport the gas from the wells to be processed and sold but they don't care. It literally looks like a war zone with flames shooting out of the ground in every direction from horizon to horizon in that area. I don't know how people can even live there.

This is not true. Many states have what is called a corpus delicti rule, which requires that a confession be corroborated by other evidence in order to sustain a conviction. I am inclined to assert that this is actually the law in most US states, but I haven't researched it.

I learnt a lot from those comments though. You can be right or wrong, but it's the lesson from engagement that matters for participants.

It's your choice and it's matter of taste. It's never a hard rule.
Except in this case the message was really written by T-Mobile. They just messed up the domain.
Yes, they burn the gas straight off all of the fracking wells. Having been there at night it literally looks like you are in hell with flames in all directions from horizon to horizon.
Having crossed paths with my fair share of anti-vaxxers over the years there's now an element of spite when I ask for the shots.
Considering it was their opening example (which they reiterated multiple times) I will concede it was a poor choice. Since yes one of the top goals is selling the general idea. So it's fair the general audience would take it at face value, especially when they use it multiple times as a real world use case, it is hard to take it any other way.

Plus the doc is #1 on HN after all, which could IRL push it beyond a proposal stage if done right.

I'm always amused by the media trying to conflate "millennials" with young people, because at this point someone born in 1981 is middle-aged and their children are graduating university. There's no commonality with someone born in 2012, who would currently be in 5th grade.
I think there are even people who are 10X as fast as others at solving well-defined programming problems, aka grunt work. Those who sit down and grind through it with a highly optimized workflow and don't take many breaks.

These third places do exist. I've restarted my social life successfully too, mostly with risky different people. In fact I just moved here before the pandemic so I didn't really have friends before it all started.

I tend to move a lot (this is my 4th country) so building new friendships is a fact of life for me. And I'm a very timid and introverted person. If I can do it, so can you!!

It's hard to get out of the post-COVID depression though, it takes a lot of effort. But I'm trying to make up for lost time now like I always said I would during the pandemic.
From the escalation they threatened with - yes, absolutely. Medvedev threatened with nuclear war if targets in Crimea would be hit. HQ of Black Sea Fleet got hit, along with spectacular raids on airfields, but only response were pathetic revenge attacks on Ukranian civilians.
> there can be value in making an argument specifically in bettering your own understanding of a point

If you want someone to educate you, the polite thing to do is ask. This kind of "stealth learning" where you say things you don't believe, expecting to learn via corrections, is inconsiderate and inefficient. I know people who have lost practically all of their friends because they couldn't bring themselves to acknowledge anyone else's expertise in either the subject itself or how to explain it. Don't be that guy.

ETA: Even if what you want is a spirited debate, mutual consent and respect matter. A voluntary debate can be a lot of fun for everyone, contrarian provocation out of the blue much less so.
You're not wrong. You can think of internet arguments as a method of developing a thought and collecting counterarguments in a real environment to refine it. The choice of forum affects the quality of the counterargument though, and developing a thought can be done with a crowd more likely to give constructive feedback. If some random website works for you, that's fine.

My statement is more that if you're interested in external impact, exposing someone to a new idea should be treated as the most likely outcome, so assess your effort spent accordingly. I've gotten a lot of value out of reading the different sides of other people's arguments, but I know I personally wouldn't have wanted to spend time being part of it.
It's the same situation as with Linux. The idea behind it is not unique. Nor is the idea behind FFmpeg. And a motivated developer could start either of these projects. What is unique is that the projects persisted, they attracted other developers and became a place where many people coopeate to create something truly unique. It's not worth working on FFmpeg competitor at this point.
> I didn't say that there couldn't be negative disagreement.

> What's the problem? What's the actual problem?

You're not as personable as you think you are with such a confrontational attitude towards feedback on a website you support. The website is distracting to enough folks that it matters. Period.

I'm not sure I understand the weird fan crowd we have here for the site in question. This thread is rife with folks who are ecstatic to defend the author for exercising artistic license, yet incapable of understanding or receiving valid feedback on said artistic license. And these folks aren't even the author!

If you put it in public, anything is fair game.

> if you really care the tools are available to it yourself.

I cared enough to leave feedback for the author, I'm not going to go out of my way to read text peppered with distracting weeb shit. I don't expect folks to sift through my unusual interests to get to my points.

On these sort of cases I'm a little less inclined to blame the justice system. Often there were statisticians or other experts who should have known better advising or testifying to the likelihood of guilt. People shouldn't be convicted of improbability alone, but statistics is hard even for statisticians.

Of course they should have tried to correct the mistake once pointed out, but the justice seems doesn't seem to like doing that.
Unless the person is truly a net negative producing programmer - firing, hiring (1-2 month process), onboarding, and then hoping they don't job hop tends to be even more expensive for an organization than having them plod away slowly.

Ask HN: As a caregiver how to achieve things
I am in mid 30's and last year my partner was diagnosed with a rare life threatening disease. Everything turned upside down, currently things are holding up fine..But I am stuck.

As a immigrant in US I am worried about possible medical bills would like to accumulate some money, but feel my hands are tied.

1. My partner can't possibly work.

2. Changing to high paying job requires quite a effort and because of my Job and caregiver duties I don't have much time left to prepare for interviews

3. I would not be eligible for FLMA in the first year of employment, so not sure if it's a wise decision to change a job.

Asking for suggestions to manage this phase and how to navigate this.
I'm okay with people trying out different viewpoints—I do think it's a good way to explore new ideas—but I'd prefer the post be prefaced with "to play devil's advocate" or something to that effect.
I’ll cross post what I wrote to folks on the MacRumors forum:

I believe this may be an intentional change to temporarily avoid a security issue, which otherwise hadn't been fixed yet: https://theevilbit.github.io/posts/cve-2022-32929/ (as shown in the blog post and embedded Twitter thread linked earlier)

> The issue is that an attacker can invoke the `AppleMobileBackup` utility and make a backup to a custom location. Thus completely bypassing the protected backup location.

The issue was "fixed" on the macOS side by updating the binary to not support this behavior, but the problem is that you can still swap in a binary from an older version of macOS to get around this.

So, presumably, the problem is blocked from the iOS side now until the issue is resolved from the iOS side to make the older macOS binaries not work with newer iOS. I think it's safe to assume there wasn't time to fix this fully (since it needs to behave differently depending on the version of macOS making the request to avoid making older Macs entirely incompatible despite the prompt) and therefore the fix is temporary, but it would be a shame if it was permanent.

It leans heavy toward being cultural: Japan got rid of most public trashcans after an extremist group attacked civilians with sarin gas, some decades ago. The streets remained as trash-free as usual.

I don't really like the parties with kids around myself. It's like a constant censorship. People don't say rude things around their kids, don't get too drunk, don't stay up late, constantly have to keep an eye on them.

To me it's no party when you're not crawling home at 6am after watching your friend make out with someone and having had the most hilarious laughs that you won't really remember because of the alcohol. And watching the sun come up with a friend talking about things you've never told anyone.

I'm 47 and I still feel this way. Maybe I never grew up. Well that might be so but I really don't want to :P. Luckily I've found others like me.
