Again that’s not how it works. First, whenever this happens it is broadcast widely in the news. Second, there is some debate, a mention that no state law (and definitely no federal law, as the original comment suggested) actually exists prohibiting kids from being at the playground alone, a vague weak law is used and then the prosecutor goes WTF were the police thinking.
Such a great idea. We played a lot of battleship when we were growing up. I may need to try this out with my son when he starts learning to read!
That's only because the scrooges don't have a stack of 5€ bills at hand.

Sacrificing one such bill with every delivery magically makes Hermes minions much more reliable.

Same applies to all the others.
That sounds like "being responsible for a building'. Buy a seagoing boat sometime to play this game on hardmode :-D
You might like Mastodon, then? That's exactly what it offers.

(That it only offers a chronological feed is the main thing I don't like about it, to the point that I wrote my own client to implement rudimentary prioritization)
It doesn't seem quite the same. Instead of "praise me for what I inherited", it's more like:

"I'm proud of low unemployment. Low unemployment is valuable and is something we want." Meanwhile the Fed is seeking to increase unemployment.
no one is arguing that.

Comments are for things that are __impossible__ to tell from the code and the code alone.

Comments are subjective, code isn't.

90% of the companies I've worked at have had commits linked to actual tickets in a ticketing system. if i really need to understand what was going on, holistically, i could just git blame and go there. i look at tests, I look at the discussion around the code between the person who reviewed the PR and the person who raised the PR. Too often people use comment incorrectly or noisily.

No one is saying you shouldn't write comments. People are saying there are way better practices out there and you should really ask your self, why you are writing a comment to begin with and is there a better way to capture what it is your are trying to do so product managers, developers, engineering managers, QA people understand what the intent of that commit was.
Ouch. If it knows it's about to fail over from an update, it really should get the follower totally in sync with the leader first.
Yes. For example German workers have better than average protection from exploitation

This is from 2018 and shows where you can actually have some rights as a worker. It's not hopeless: https://www.ituc-csi.org/IMG/pdf/ituc-global-rights-index-20...
There's a lot of angry shouting shows on AM radio.
yeah people can boost posts on mastodon (essentially a retweet), but you don't see the asinine algorithmic things like replies to people you don't follow (unless you go look for them)

I do like that there's no reply component to boosts though. You boost it up or not. No sniping.
Management will suffer when this mess results in them underperforming.
Which sounds well and good until you learn that the zoning laws we have are mostly a result of attempting to keep neighborhoods white.
It's interesting that you bring up Google, a company founded to 'organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful.'

Isn't that exactly what Artifact is doing (but instead of rules-based search algorithms, it's using stochastic ML models)?

Is the problem that they are comparing themselves to Tik Tok?
If that means getting 15" framework laptops with discrete GPUs, sure. If it means sticking to the current framework or a larger one with the same basic hardware... nothanks.
Effective Altruism isn't very different from Randian objectivism.
If anyone does want to read a book about it, I'm listening to "Decluttering at the speed of life" and it hits this concept pretty well. Really helped me shift my mindset.
Wonder if there's a connection with Ballmer Peak.
I think you mean the other way around?
This is indeed the main difference. The reason that agreed that the plan was suitable was the combination of the ongoing work on incorporating -reuse with the Go module mirror and the Go teams decision to accept responsibility for the traffic and to exercise their discretion in moderating it for each affected third-party without requiring them to explicitly reach out to Google to opt out. Russ also graciously elaborated on the engineering thought-process going on within the Go team the implications of disabling the refresh on third-parties, which had not been done prior to our communications in the past couple of weeks.

There's still work to be done, but so long as work is moving forward and the Go team is communicative and pro-active about addressing the problem, then our concerns were satisfied, and I'm glad that we were able to address the issue.
Ask HN: Does AI just need to be useful?
It's funny to me how so many AI / ML post discussions on news.ycombinator devolve into does it truely understand, isn't humans just a bunch of pattern matching machines, what does it mean to truly understand.

Then someone mentioned Qualia and we are off to the races... Someone counters with AI is what machines currently can't do..

I like the simple question of: is it useful? Like #chatgpt my brother in law uses it daily to actually solve coding problems and he works for google. Sister in law same for SAP. Not just syntax but solving business and technical problems described in English in code.

That is useful.

Just wait till a generation of finance people discover ChatGPT can generate excel macros for their business requirements they can just paste in.

Discussing this google music generation with a friend today: https://google-research.github.io/seanet/musiclm/examples/
He is like it is only for background music not stuff you actually want to listen to. Background music is useful. If this can generate pop that is useful.
Obviously not every convo needs to be a duh-bate. but "works for me/them" is a pretty low bar for veracity or moral permissibility.
> Insulating my not so old house (1998) to be up to the modern norms would cost me something like 50/60k€.

I grew up in a house built in ~1898. I know about old houses. There was still some piping in it for gas lighting (before electricity was "invented").
Not GP, but (all else being equal) the more people that are using the same DE as me, the better off I am. The more DEs that exist, the less likely a person installing linux will use the same DE as me.
> low traffic streets that are safe for kids to play around

Suburban streets are extremely dangerous to kids (in fact being hit by a driver is the leading cause of death to kids under 14).

You know what is safe? Walkable cities, pedestrianised streets, speed bumps wherever cars do drive inside the city, etc.
The point is not merely technically correct, it is actually correct. If you want to say funding didn't go up enough for your liking, say so directly. Don't say something you know isn't true, and then when called on it try to wriggle out of it.

And as for the FT's take - "Tory austerity" didn't even balance the budget. The UK cannot afford to have the level of state spending it already has, let alone increase it yet further.
The Cleanse [by Fred Wilson]
Do you mean document control, or diff on text contents?

For plain text, diff is do-able, but I don't know if comparing two PDFs can involve a detailed "diff" vs. a checksum, since the text could be the same but there's a change in layout, an image, etc.
Aren't they just stopping them, and letting you immediately restart them if you're actually still using them?
The account was not cancelled.
I think Deepin's DE used to be based on HTML years back, but they switched to Qt.

The ease of deployment alone keeps me going back to PHP, but the speed is nice too
They have different tradeoffs and different use cases. They intersect, though.
This is a great catch. Thank you. We are cooking up a solution!
Is HD Radio equivalent to DAB+? If so, it’s alive and well in Australia (insofar as radio is alive and well)
> For example, students may use LLMs to complete written assignments, leaving instructors unable to accurately assess student learning.

I'm one student using GPT to write my written assignments, and I cannot understand what is the issue with that. Even though it enhances the quality of my text, I cannot just copy, paste, submit and profit. I still have to understand what is being written. My workflow is normally the following:

- I ask for an outline to the essay. I use this outline as guide, remove some suggestion, add others that I think are important, rephrase some. I could as well google for similar written essays and do the same.

- Then I ask for the topics, please describe X, Y.. I read it, as a regular source. I understand it, and rewrite it. I add stuff, remove stuff, add references. Normally I endup rewriting everything

- Push the text through Grammarly, rephrase some stuff, check for plagiarism and submit it. I have to read and re-read it, many times.

I have the impression that I've got much more effective avoiding the mechanical part of the task of writing. In another hand my course has some stupid enforcement like 15k words/essay. So they are almost asking me to do some bullshit around the topic instead of going straight to the point. I simply automate the burden. As any software developer would do. I however study philosophy.

So i guess, it will help the universities and education institutions to rethink their traditional way of evaluate written assignments, which probably will be positive. It helps me definitely to write better.
The GNU software is insignificant compared to the rest of what is included in the operating system. Most casual users won't even actively use GNU software.
>You get laptops that don't suspend as shipped

They have not suspended the laptops during shipment?

>you still cannot remove of disable Intel ME

Yeah right? Another good point for open firmware.
> extremely traumatizing

Words have meaning, and "extremely traumatizing" should be reserved for slightly more damaging things than getting ready to leave the restaurant and realizing your phone is gone. I realize word inflation is a battle that is lost every day, but it's still annoying. See what I did there? I didn't say that word inflation is extremely enraging or plunges me into a mental breakdown. It's just annoying.
It writes better than me (I am an ESL) in writing, and that's enough reason for me to use it.

It might not be better than Tolkien, but so what, 99.99% people are also not better than Tolkien and ChatGPT can add value to the life of these people.
The neat thing about pull-out-of-ass numbers like this is how far you can twist the numbers to say whatever you want. You can even create a way for EV costs to exactly equal ICE costs for vehicle lifetimes.
> I'm still gonna chose my AI consultant over you in 5-10 years.

AI will never replace experts.

Someone still has to curate the firehose of information returned. What's the point then?

AI can only interpolate a response from internet sources, and claims of plagiarism are already coming hard. The internet was never a good source of expertise.
OK, but you’re moving the goalposts. A written form of the language curated specifically for the purpose of learning is not really relevant to a discussion of the language, just as would be the case for any other language. That is not the language used in daily life. There are no furigana in a newspaper or on the Internet (technological assistance notwithstanding). Magazines, business communication…anything useful is off limits if you can’t read, say, 500 kanji at an absolute minimum. Anything more advanced, academia, etc. requires far more.
You’re right, better have none at all than something below your standards. /s
If it was really the HA causing this, maybe the follower had a temp outage before the leader and hadn't yet caught up.

I already don't want HA if there's a chance for even 1 second of data loss, but for those who can tolerate that, there really should be an upper bound on the staleness. If your leader fails, the follower shouldn't take over unless it knows it's close to up-to-date.
The feed is one of the most dangerous inventions of modern times and now we're making it even more addictive. I really hope we stop to think about this at some point and realise we need to break away from this consumption format.
Hermes: Futurama?
They changed text from puke orange to puke grass. This is progress I aways embrace. May be in far away future my grandchildren will be able to select the text colour or even define it themselves at their loking. That quantum leap would be called “century of linux on desktop”.
pringles have that oddly compelling texture, and type of saltyness that cant be forgotten. highly processed potato puree extruded and ?air fried?
Hmm seems you may be right. You can get the top 5 out of the box but you’ll need to file for an exception to get any more than that.
In the late '00s people had enough time to write long blog posts

I'm still baffled at how that game got almost rebooted and then just abandoned. The game wasn't perfect, the business model was a failed experiment, but it's something they absolutely could have built into something fun, instead of flushing it all down the drain.

Online card games are huge. Valve was almost there.
You could write unmaintainable code in any language. Rust have more opportunities for it than for Go, C++ has even more of them.
I'd be super curious to see what load GitHub was seeing from this. There's a lot of focus on protecting smaller sites (who presumably have less funding) but the amount of redundant network traffic this generates must be quite large for other sites as well.

I'm also still questioning the need for the proxy in the first place.
You're referring to the way things were in the past, whilst making claims about the present day. Empires don't generally give parts of themselves fair and free referendums on whether to stay and then win, do they?
Thanks. We have some engineering superheros to thank for that. Really appreciate the feedback and compliment:)
Why is Drew a jerk?
The reputation hit to Heroku is real. Its so too bad that they've made these changes, and stopped pushing new features.

I built my prior business on heroku and it was wonderful. Now with this current company I've switched to Render (through am looking for something else). For me the writing was on the wall for Heroku and it wasn't worth it to me to dig in there if new features and support wasn't a given.

Curious for anyone with an inside perspective. What happened? Heroku was so far ahead of the pack for awhile, then suddenly stopped staying a step ahead. Was this intentional? Why?
I like it! It's nicely polished and their Pop Shop app installer is better than gnomes.
No doubt, but how relevant? If you could somehow go through my brain you'd also find the occasional piece of art and literature - I've memorised a few good poems and songs. And I can recognise certain paintings on sight which would be difficult if they weren't accurately encoded in my mind somewhere. The fact that I have memorised them doesn't mean that I'm violating anyone's copyright if I attempted to compose poems and songs.
I don't listen to the radio much anymore (work-from-home keeps me off the road, which is where I'd normally listen to radio).

But I am with you, I have found the HD sub-channels to be very palletable to listen to compared with the main channels. Even NPR is getting hard to listen to, but some of the alternative HD channels are quite enjoyable, especially for "unpopular" genres like folk, bluegrass, original (roots) country, Americana, 40's/50's, etc.

I don't think it's a failure. Maybe it's a failure of monetization, but I think it's a success in terms of content availability and lack of advertisements.
This is called "traffic calming", the notion that you have to design the streets so it's impossible for drivers to go at unsafe speeds, rather than making wide straight roads and plonking down a "pls no speederino" sign.

Leave wide straight roads for segregated highways and build streets for people, not just cars.
? For one thing, the Fed isn't really part of the administration. So the executive branch can attempt to take credit for the statistic even while the Fed tries to destroy it.
If I drove more I'd probably fork over the money for Sirius. I had it for free in my car for a while and it was certainly much better than FM stations. I did one week-long road trip in the Western U.S. and it was pretty cool to just keep it on the same station and it works even when there's no cell signal. Even their pop/hits stations are way better than my local FM stations, both in music selection/variation and obviously no ads/terrible DJ chatter.

But with my current driving habits that's maybe one or two weeks a year where I would really care to have it.
AM radio is long gone in Europe, in Italy the last stations did shut down years ago. The audio quality of AM is too low for any practical use, and didn't evolve in the years, such as implement stereo transmissions. FM is much better, it can provide decent quality with stereo sound.

Even FM will not probably be still around for much longer, even if I'm not in favour to the transition to DAB radio since I like vintage Hi-Fi systems in the end it will be abandoned, transmitting with digital is much cheaper since you need less power for a similar coverage and you can multiplex more stations in a single frequency.
It's time to get comment generated via toolings.
But you just said "believe women" is fine whereas "believe men" or "believe children" is absurd. I don't follow the distinction you're drawing here. They're grammatically equal.
Great, more name collisions for "artifact repository", "artifact generation", etc.
Form over function?
If people live in a low density area, we can assume they want to live in a low density area. So it makes perfect sense they would be against making their low density area high density. What is so uncomfortable about that?

To get at what your really implying though, what's wrong with maintaining some degree of cultural homogeneity in a neighborhood? It's a good thing in that it makes for high trust communities.
Wow! That's really huge thing!
How Western scholars overlooked Russian imperialism
I have come to a "middle ground," when structuring and commenting code.

First, the code needs to be fairly clear, but not "stupid" clear. I have had people tell me not to use idiomatic Swift, because "a JavaScript programmer can't understand it."

In some cases, this may be necessary, but not in mine.

The #1 consumer of my code, is Yours Truly. The wonkiness doesn't bother me, but sometimes, I may not be aware of why I did something (that may not be "idiomatic," at all).

That's why I may write a quick comment, like so:

showThrobber()
// The reason for this, is that we need to give the throbber time to show up.
DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: DispatchTime.now() + DispatchTimeInterval.milliseconds(20)) {

That explains the awkward use of an "asyncAfter()" method.

It was the result of me, wasting a good half hour, trying to figure out why the screen didn't change. I saved future me, a half hour (and also a signpost for "improvements needed").

I write about my approach to documentation, here: https://littlegreenviper.com/miscellany/leaving-a-legacy/

Devil's advocate, I'm going to guess you do not want exactly that and you'd be happier with a quality alg.

There is far, far too much information out there, and the things outputted from the things you follow is a 'decent start' but it's not what you want.

Systrom is exactly right and better algs is what we need.

TikTok is a great social medial platform, it's fun, irreverent, and the alg allows you to find niches in content that would not exist otherwise. I've found this guy who does videos on his sheep herding dogs, it's so fun to watch.

Applying a great filter to all of my youtube/news feeds is one of the most meaningful ways to improve my content feed.

Yes - we want to make sure people have the option to follow exactly what they want and hopefully to adjust the feed parameters ... but I would love to get rid of the fuzz in my feed.

This is decent innovation and it could affect a lot of people, it's fine to be a bit sus but I don't think we should be cynical.

You don't have to use it.
My money is on it being cheaper to produce and with no benefit to the consumer.

This is completely wrong. You're just making up theories.

ZFS stores the error correcting bits on the same physical drive as the data.

This isn't right either.
I'm a little confused about your comment.

This is stuff like fishing recommendations by species, sea surface heights, temperature contors, 30m deep temperature condors, plankton concentrations, weather radar, storm tracks, wave heights, and more and then integrated into common Garmin, Raymarine, Lowrance, Simrad, and other equipment that many boats would already have. All of that data constantly updated and refreshed live even when you're miles out to sea and can't pick up common line of sight style transmissions.

Its not just a METAR weather report from an airport kinda near the shore.
Open AI knows every text that is generated by ChatGPT, so it can run a simple search algorithm instead of an AI model and achieve way higher true positive rate?
1 == "1"; // true
1n == "1"; // true

I just want 2-finger gestures to be configurable (or at least the same as on Windows as I use both). For some reason it has been almost impossible to get a two-finger left/right swipe to act as forward/back actions (the only browser it works for is Epiphany, which doesn't support plugins until the most recent version)
That last paragraph just sounds like your average right-wing Christian radio station of which there are thousands across the US. Heck, your last paragraph there could've been from Dr. Dobson on the Focus on the Family radio show which is quite mainstream among American Evangelicals (of which there are many).

As for the Loving Hut restaurants... oh, that's what I went to downtown? It did seem culty. They were playing some video on a loop about world peace, etc. I've gotta say, though, their vegan shrimp were quite good - a very good approximation down to the texture.
Freiburg in Germany. The black forest literally starts at the edge of the city. It was a while since I was there, but we definitely walked from the city centre to the forest. Might have been 30 minutes. Would be quick on a bike.

Zaragoza in Spain. Walked from the old city centre to the edge of the city (which was apartment blocks) in a reasonable time. It was mostly agricultural land, but I recall
some forest along the river.

San Sebastián, also in Spain. You can walk into the hills, but we went to the beach.

Parks covered in homeless people is a US problem, in my experience. I've been around most of Europe and haven't seen anything like that. The homeless problem in the US is a policy choice, just like the urban development is. It's easily solvable given political will.
