I think this is truer and truer.

Part of the issue is our built-in bias towards thinking of other Reddit users (and HN and whoever) as people just like ourselves. That means we give undue weight to their recommendations.

I definitely find myself being more swayed by a single user's recommendation with maybe a few dozen upvotes, over SEO-gamed websites and Amazon reviews. But in reality, that's a ludicrous assumption, since advertisers knows it too, and it only takes 5-10 fake accounts to create that kind of pretend consensus.

In many ways, Reddit is far easier to spam.
TV may seem boring compared for those of us who have grown accustomed to consuming video over the internet, but a lot of older people just leave their television on all day. Maybe they're not glued to it the whole time, but it it's a constant din. I guess they're hoping something worthwhile may come on and they'll get a squirt of dopamine.

Why not start firefox with the -P flag for troubleshooting? And keep your default Profile using containers.
Always has been

I used Firefox when it came out, then I moved to Chrome when Chrome came out because Firefox was terribly slow (and it was because of the addons). When Chrome became slow because of the addons, I jumped back to Firefox, and I haven't looked back.

It is specially important to use Firefox now given that there are very few non-Chromium alternatives for web browsers. Keep the web open!
Crop rotation is a standard practice. Sugar beats cannot be grown year after year on the same plot.
I don't care much either way, but you have the privacy argument backwards. If you're downloading all the things, then no knows if you are using xyz, only that you might be using xyz. If you're just downloading what you need and you're downloading xyz, then they know that you're using xyz.

> the alternative is violence or unionization, neither of which are optimal in resolving disputes like these in a civilized and efficient manner.

Unionization is a great way of solving disputes. Many big corporations need to be counter-weight with some other big organization.

To put violence and unions at the same level seems uncalled for.

I have paid for GTP-3 in the past. I think it’s incredible and likely worth it to many people. I wouldn’t currently pay for it because I don’t have a use case that requires generating a lot of template code or communication, but I did, I would get out the credit card in a flash.

ChatGTP isn’t AGI yet, but it’s incredibly powerful today. Even if GTP-4 wasn’t around the corner, I think the current state of LLMs would be able to power many new businesses and use cases over coming decades. Even that AI Seinfeld clone could be turned into a choose your own adventure streaming Netflix with enough refinement.
I don't think 'antisocial personality disorder' characterizes as typical sociopaths. It is accepted (and often witnessed also by me) that ie higher management layers in corporations are often inhabited by highly functioning sociopaths, they simply have much wider toolset to reach their goals compared to more 'normal' folks, which at one point leave in disgust those continuous battlefields where sociopaths feel at home.

Unless nomenclature changed significantly in past decade or so.
I've purchased a bunch of cheap sensors from AliExpress also. Half of them had serious issues. Firmware issues that would knock them off my gateway, or drain their battery completely so I'd have to go change them. And not so fatal issues like the battery that came with them was total junk and couldn't sustain a device for more than a week.

When I spent 2x as much from a US vendor from Amazon, they worked. No messing around. Probably they are built in the same regions, but US designs by US vendors I've had much much better luck with.

I don't buy lots of things from Amazon for fear of fakes. When you're on niche products that nobody cares to duplicate it's much safer.

It's almost comical the supply chain understanding you have to have to make sure you get the right thing.
One example - my shopping profile runs the extensions Rakuten/Honey to find coupon codes. I don't want those running on every single page I load outside of the shopping intent, so I use a separate profile.

Firefox's containers don't allow for limiting extensions, so you have to use profiles. Chrome only has profiles.

How? The US govt. won't be paying the bill in most cases.
... you're ignoring the underlying availability. The total number of Hyundais sold in the US is comparable to combined sales of Honda Civics and Toyota Camrys alone. The question is whether the risk of a Hyundai/Kia being stolen is disproportionately high, since that's what affects its impact on an insurer.
Ask HN: What are the top uses for synthetic data in data science?

No, the data comes from users' interactions with the platform, and they have to run a massive engineering feat to take all of that and run 24/7. It's expensive and so it's reasonable to charge something
Wouldn't it be fair to say that one has to know what the current path is and have some idea where it leads and what its issues are, before forging a new path?

I mean, any idiot can go off-trail and start blundering around in the weeds, and ultimately wind up tripping, falling, hitting their head on a rock, and drowning to death in a ditch. But actually finding a new, better, more efficient path probably involves at least some understanding of the status quo.
Not at all - just checking!
Technically, insurance is not "required in the US", there is no federal requirement, it is required in 49 states.

And there are plenty of other reasons that someone may not be insurable.

For creating bash scripts and english to code it remains remarkably consistent. No need to be a master of multiple languages syntaxes now.
Sam's Club has mobile app scan and go. Its so nice just being able to scan things as I put it in the cart. When you're ready to leave you just mark finish and pay in the app. It shows a QR code you show to the loss prevention people at the exit. They scan the QR code, scan three items in the cart and do a quick eyeball count of items, and you're on your way.

I truly wish more places had this. Its been my favorite way to shop so far. So fast, so easy, far less machine learning and expensive cameras and sensors everywhere. Its even better than a single queue for checkout, which is for sure far better than multiple queues.

Something that still requires a little more knowledge but makes Louisiana slightly more known is that New Orleans, or NOLA like the news source is named, is in Louisiana (it is where the LA from NOLA comes from). New Orleans is slightly more known than random places but still requires a few steps of thought. All this is to say, it is funny to add in the 'little known' part but LA in this context was always going to be a little confusing.
An example, just because this is exactly what happened to me recently. Looking for Oral B replacement toothbrush heads. A bunch of bargain off brand alternatives pop up, yeah, I'm skipping right over them for something going inside my mouth. The second non-sponsored result is:

"Genuine Original Oral-B Braun Precision Clean Replacement Rechargeable Toothbrush Heads..."

$31 for a ten pack. Seems probably about right? But when I click through the full title is:

"Genuine Original Oral-B Braun Precision Clean Replacement Rechargeable Toothbrush Heads (10 Count) - International Version, German Packaging"

and it's sold by "Wiki Deals". The photos show a package with English labelling, for what it's worth. So I guess these have been imported somehow? Are they legit? What does that mean for FDA approval, I wonder? I don't want to have to consider these things.

By contrast when I search Target, the first result (including any promoted stuff):

Oral-B Sensitive Gum Care Electric Toothbrush Replacement Brush Head

It's a three pack, $21, sold by Target themselves. More and more I'm just going to Target in the first instance and skipping Amazon entirely.
Like the rest of industrial age development, farm automation has historically been built around treating everything uniformly (even distribution of seeds bred for easy harvest in evenly spaced rows evenly fertilizied with no rocks etc etc). Moving away from that introduces all kinds of complexity, mechanical problems, data problems, etc, which are not easy to solve even when you have historical existence proofs of potentially better ways to do things. It's happening though.
You’re not wrong but the manager making that call will have retired rich by then.
> When your ideology calls fiscal responsibility "hoarding wealth," you should rethink your worldview

The US stock market and the under-the-pillow gold or in-the-bank life savings of the Japanese grannies are not the same. All of what is happening is happening for the sake of the former. None of those countries that you listed is waging a war on their working class to lower their wages to prop up the former. Leaving aside by openly declaring it. The 'fiscally responsible' country is.

Even more, as its central bank moves to kill everyone's wages in general, its higher financial institutions and hedge funds are pushing the companies to go along with it to kill highly paid white collar wages too. And the tech giants who were supposedly going to 'change the world' are complying with it. Even as they post obscene profits.

All of those is to prop up the stock prices. Nothing more. Nothing related to 'savings'. You may have some retirement funds in the stock market that skews your perception. But people like you don't make up the majority in the stock market. Less hold the power and call the shots. Those who make up the majority are people who dont have any relevance to any kind of 'saving', even less, the need to 'save'.

And all of this without touching the fact that how that fiscally responsible country kills its people if they cant pay for healthcare or pushes them out of the cities in the winter if they cant pay rent even while working two jobs. Gotta have them plebs anxious about their livelihood, or they wont consent to working harder for less pay...

Don't rationalize and justify delirious sociopathy that seeks obsessive-compulsive hoarding. There is nothing rational in the hoards of wealth that is sitting only to amass even more hoards of wealth.

Its 20+ years into 21st century and instead of flying cars we have a system that thrives on making people overwork for ever less pay and even kills them if they cant pay for the hospital. Way past time for you to reconsider your ideology. Not others.
Let's see if startups solely basing their entire business on someone else's API (i.e. ChatGPT) will actually learn their lesson since OpenAI can also compete against their own partners and undercut them.

So far my predictions on OpenAI for 2023 [0] have become very accurate and expected but happened surprisingly early. From their investment [1] to pricing the ChatGPT API [2] and now I will expect OpenAI to start competing against their partners as I said in [0].

The only way to compete against OpenAI is an open-source version of ChatGPT.

I’m getting really tired of this “launch an AI product with no QA and have users point out your mistakes” approach. It’s very clear that this site doesn’t work. Anyone who uses it for 2 seconds can see it. Why launch it right now?
GP stated that they asked ChatGPT about a topic they already were familiar with, from other sources. And that the answer made sense.
Miss-classifying employees, earnings or costs are great ways for companies to cheat taxes and labor laws.

"Self employed" is used in the same way. Many people in the gig-economy are just employees that are not legally hired because companies want to avoid any responsibility while still profiting from employees.
Maybe, but that's a lot of degrees of freedom of movement and machine vision to use "3 sisters" farming techniques, interplanting works because of the system of moisture, structure, and nitrogen fixation that each unit provides. Not saying it's not a good system/cool project idea.

afaik the English dub literally changes the ending of Kiki's Delivery Service
It's quite limited, in frequently making even basic mistakes, but when it works well, it displays real intelligence. It synthesizes new knowledge, as opposed to just retrieving it. When it works well, It's not just a magic trick.
I agree. I regularly use ChatGPT to help reword paragraphs to be more succinct. I rarely ask it for actual information that it has to look up. At its core, it's an LLM which models how language is structured, and that's what it's good at.

Is it fair to compare equal income earners with and without kids though? How much of each earners income is because of, or despite, having children? I think it would be better to compare not based on income, but on other demographic factors such as work locale, job duties, career trajectories, education, partner, etcetera. That would show to what extent having kids is a net benefit or liability.
I've had the exact opposite experience with GitHub enterprise sales. It took 3 months to get them to add a new user block to our existing sub.
Sometimes I think it's amazing they're able to even generate revenue as poor as that experience was. It's a shame we like the product (mostly) so much...
I think they did at the beginning, there's been a lot of algorithm changes before but once they realized they were losing, they just gave up.

The incentives are just not aligned anyways, Google Search gets its money from the ad links on the top, they don't really lose anything if the links below are half terrible...
It would likely have to be accomplished via the courts first. Barring that though, there's only very radical options left.
Some of the answers excuse this as "only a VP has signing authority."

That probably accounts for some of the VP titles. I kinda doubt that all the VPs in your average BofA office are always signing things, and couldn't possibly just go to their boss for a signature, like normal people do.
I like to program this way too. And make music this way. And build things this way. The fewest tools with sufficient utility.
> Such companies are also not above doing questionably legal things for this purpose

True, but things have a tendency to become, shall we say: Extra illegal, if you've already been warned.

In many cases you can claim that you didn't know, or that you thought that your situation was somehow special. An A.I, with knowledge of labor laws will make such a claim problematic.
> asking them to not bother with any protection from phishing and various password and 2nd factor theft.

Yes, so? I can deal with phishing myself, especially with TOTP 2FA that risk is far far smaller than the risk of being locked out by some dumb risk heuristic.

If the general public can't be trusted, fine. But let me disable these extra "protections"
An 8 to 5 guy is a 6 to 10 guy at home, and that's already pretty weak on the work-life balance scale!
Under the same banner of just staying away from popular malware targets, it would be consistent to choose bing or DDG while searching from your web browser running on OpenBSD/riscv64. Just confuse the hell out of the bad guys.

But, the big flaw in the article is the author fails to suggest a better alternative. DDG raises 2 malware sites in the top 10 organic (I assume) results for "tor download". You're not safe from this stuff anywhere.
The liability of some kid stealing your insured property and crashing it "for the lulz".
"It is basically like having an incredibly smart engineer/scientists/philosopher/etc that can explain things quite well, but for pretty much every field."

I don't know how to tell you this without being a little rude, but if you think ChatGPT is incredibly smart or that it can tell you meaningful things about "any field," well, there is a difference in intelligence somewhere in the equation between you and ChatGPT, but its not the one you think.
I really wonder how many Dockerfiles are out there that on every PR merge pull the entire cargo "metadata" without cache and how wasteful that is from a bandwidth/electricity standpoint or if in the grand scheme of things it's a small drop in the bucket?
Have you had any luck with picking and choosing what gets backed up? I have a bunch of smaller personal files I'd love to sync to B2 (photos, backups, etc.) but I also have 7TB+ of linux ISOs that don't really need to be backed up because I can easily download them again. I tried to exclude the folders I don't want to back up, but I haven't had any luck.
It's not "flexible" either. It's "non-accrued". The only reason it's non-accrued is so that the company doesn't have to pay you left over PTO when you leave the company and gets it off their books. Everything else is a euphemism to make employees feel good about getting fewer benefits.

You could have this flexibility with accrued PTO. I've previously given employees additional, off-the-books time off because they needed and deserved it and when we all got laid off they still got the remaining PTO paid out.

Edit: add section on flexible alternative
> ChatGPT’s output might not be as good as the best writing, but most of what people read is mediocre content with questionable accuracy.

I agree with this, but I think we may be missing the point.

Why are people reading mediocre content with questionable accuracy?

The problem is not: how to quickly and cheaply create content which is marginally less mediocre and marginally more accurate than what we currently have.
Cheapest is probably a used HDD.
energy prices are decreasing, not increasing; solar power is half as expensive as coal power in most of the world already, and it's likely to get even cheaper over time as pv production scales up

(of course in northern europe this year that is not the case because they were relying on russian gas, but that's not 'sooner or later', that's just right now)
If I remember correctly, a lot of loan companies require more coverage than that, though. If you can't insure them, you probably won't get a loan.
They want evidence an immobilizer is installed, so with a simple modification people can get insured. But I'm not sure the government can force an insurance company to cover a vehicle anyways.
> But at least for now there's no way I'm realizing $20/month of value from ChatGPT

Agreed. We get into moods where we would appreciate access to an advanced language model like this, but those moods absolutely do not make up the majority of a month and they also certainly aren't worth $20.

We don't use ChatGPT for problem solving. Mainly brainstorming, or just conversations.
