So, recently, I accidentally stumbled into an almost bottomless pit of romantic comedies on an amazon prime "channel" called PixL. It has a ridiculously large quantity of low-value sort-of-OK content that all kind of bleeds together if you squint.

I watch a lot of TV/movies, and it is mostly something to deal with me feeling lonely (which is probably a bad thing to fix, actually: better I get so sad that I quit computers and go into the real world to find another person... but that's a more fundamental problem).

I have long said that what I really want are 3-star movies, as I am really just using the people in the movie to tie up the tiny bit of my brain that tries to process the existence of people to be less lonely: I don't want it to be so bad as to be frustrating or so good that I actually want to watch it, as that would be distracting.

The problem, though, is it feels more like being at an airport or on a street than around your classmates or friends: people come and go and you never get to know them that deeply, as a movie is only an hour and a half.

Watching multi-season TV shows thereby works a lot better against being lonely, and I think a lot of people essentially use sitcoms like this: they have seen the show a million times and continue to watch it on repeat as part of their brain has established a parasocial relationship with the characters.

But, the problem I have doing that, is that watching the same content on repeat also causes this sense of deja vu and gives the world an air of implausibility. It is fun to be there for the new stuff, but hearing the old stories again doesn't convey the same feeling of "this is happening" (as false as we all know even that is ;P).

But so now like... generating an infinite amount of content for a pseudo-sitcom that is maybe even just sort of OK--as that's what the AI can manage to muster up until the end of time--might frankly be fine, as I'm not trying to really watch it anyway?

It then just needs to be close enough to what my subconscious expects out of a person so that I get the feeling of "I'm watching these people I pretend to know" (though it would be interesting if one's subconscious is better at deciding it is all fake than one's consciousness is ;P "thankfully", TV is already a bit fake).

And, so, maybe it works better if instead of being a new lame sitcom it is a lame extended universe of a great sitcom (such as Seinfeld), so you will have already watched it actively enough to train your own brain that these are people in your life who matter to you and then it is easier to use the seasons of that sitcom to fine tune an AI into generating more content in that same genre / story for you to begin spending the rest of your life not really exactly watching an infinite stream of generated extended seasons.
Had consumers voted with their wallets for banning Freon? I don't know. Isn't it just a successful of developing alternatives and regulation?

Maybe some consumers voted with their wallets for fuel economy car (thus lower CO2 emissions)
Remote where?
- announced at 10pm
- basically a week to decide what to do with your dev project
- No information to help you make that decision

This seems like more management by manchild. I strongly suspect that Musk realized his promises of cutting down bots etc. were failing and that they either couldn't or wouldn't develop abuse detection, so he's decided to solve the problem by making it cost money, with the (perhaps desired) side effect of crippling academic/analytic research.

As an amateur network science researcher, I'm pretty steamed. I enjoy doing my own network analyses using tools like Gephi and have monitored probably a hundred breaking news or trending issues, as well as amassing a great collection of academic papers by smarter folk than me. I don't run any kind of app or service that sits on top of Twitter, but those who do run legitimate services are now being held hostage because of the unchecked abuse. Ant the failure to deal with botspam is lamentable. Twitter has refused for years to implement even the simplest things like hashing tweets and looking for collisions, or considering the count of edges to the hashtag graph, or even looking at tweet frequency. Many of their abuse problems will continue unabated; the sellers in the market for bogus twitter accounts are likely delighted because they now have a great excuse to raise prices, even though most of their 'product' is produced by hand with cheap labor in poor countries.
Then you also have to tell about the father or the mother...i can't believe the way people expose their thinking
US-MFA is Moffett Airfield (the new Bay View campus), not San Diego. That’s US-SAN.
Well, they are used for baking and they are used for cooking.

I have not tried using one as a ladle but I have low expectations.
You miss the point: Tesla chose not to fit AM radios because it would have made suppressing the electrical interference so much harder. Hopefully this will change as the FCC starts looking closer at the E.M. interference from Teslas.
No. This is yet another flawed attempt to counter piracy. What will happened is that paying customers will start to wonder why they should continue to pay for this garbage instead of reverting to piracy
There is a lot of truth in that. If no other mammals are eating those bright red berries in the woods, you probably don’t want to either.

If mature rodents are unsure about a food source they’ll wait for some young go-getter to have a bite then watch to see what happens to them. I put poison packs everywhere in my apartment but after the first couple died none of the other mice would touch them.
It's still Imho one of the worst decisions Go did, it definitely not easier to read or reason about.
I moved here from NYC about a year ago now. I have no political motive in saying this: it's really not that great.

- Public transportation is absolute garbage compared to great cities. Muni coverage is a joke, the fact that the Van Ness Corridor is the only real rapid transit bus line in the entire city is insane

- Nowhere near the prettiest city in the country. My balcony overlooks a good half of the city all the way out to across the Bay and there is so much ugly sprawl between major neighborhoods. For every breathtaking view on a hill overlooking the water there's 10 more that are just ugly.

- Bike unfriendly tracks running everywhere. I broke my leg and felt like I had done something stupid. Then every single person in the hospital was able to call out the street where I was hurt without prompting and confirmed they see people daily from the same few streets.

- The food scene is the worst parts of a major city food scene with none of the upsides. If you want diversity prepare for a pretentious reinterpretation meant to extract extra money from yuppies. For actual diverse food there are clusters of places in places like parts the Mission, but with such crappy transportation actually getting to those clusters is a massive pain.

- The city mostly shuts down at an absurd hour. Trying to run errands at 10pm feels like trying to run them at 3 am in most major cities.

- The general attitude about crime: The crime itself is a dead horse, but the actual general populace just seems to have such a depressing attitude about it, like people casually trading stories about how their homes have been broken into as if it's a badge of honor or something. NYC's loudest detractors are average New Yorkers, while SF's average populace almost seems to treat it as a taboo... I guess only fringe groups like rich people, politicians, and outsiders are allowed to hate on the situation in this city?

Overall, coming from NYC I'm used to expensive, but this city is just way too expensive for what it is. The rent is insane when you take into account the fact people are seriously asking for NYC money to live in this place.

If I had to describe this place in one sentence: Consolation prize of a city priced like it came in 1st. I really dislike it.
For the animations, they could probably write it with traditional artificial intelligence. It's as simple as having events that trigger based on whos talking, such as sit on couch, walk over to kitchen, wave hands while talking, etc.
Mind you that the fig wasp looks nothing like the insect we see of when we think of a wasp.
It’s easy to imagine that, but it is not realistic to think it would actually happen.

In the event it got to court, any sane lawyer would advocate for a yes it was wrong, but there was no ill intent defense. Trying to split hairs about the difference between a “fake id” and merely a made-up ID would just be digging deeper into the hole.

When you’re pulled over for 70 in a 60, you own it, acknowledge the mistake, and hope that recognizance is enougn to get you off. You don’t create elaborate sophistries to “prove” that 70 is actually the same thing as 60, or that the signs that say 60 really mean 70. Nobody buys that kind of thing.
Now, what'll really bake your noodle: the Soviets almost certainly knew those codenames, projects, etc.

There's tons of stuff that everyone in the security services knows but is still "classified" and verboten from public discourse or even private conversation.

Half the purpose of classified program rules is to keep the public from realizing how much money is being pissed away on ridiculous boondoggles.
HATEOAS gets things backwards. It's not useful to have a client that doesn't know what is supposed to be doing, but it's very useful to have a server that doesn't remember what the client's doing. Making sure that every request includes any state needed to answer it means the server doesn't have to track sessions.
I've had a absolutely phenomenal dry figs from Turkey... Truly one of nature's treasures :-)
Unfortunately, SF hasn't fully recovered from the pandemic and the Chesa Boudin era. Apart from empty office buildings due to WFH, a lot of major retail stores have also exited downtown (CVS, Walgreens, Uniqlo, etc). It's going to be a long time before SF goes back to the way things were before.
I did read it; they didn’t address it. You can’t say that it has no uses when it’s one of the most useful pieces of tech ever invented. “It only makes sense for HTML” doesn’t even come close to addressing that point.
There where several good sitcoms, but they don’t age very well.

Watching say Simpsons season 1 now just hits very different than when it first aired.
It's a bit more remarkable than you're making it out to be. There are 855 species of Ficus (figs) and almost every one of them has a corresponding species of fig wasp. A wasp that pollinates basically only that species of fig

The figs you buy at a supermarket are of a self-fertile variety of the common fig (Ficus carica), but even the wild variety of this species is not self-fertile
Calls are the one thing Teams does well (and it does them really well), IMO. Everything else is quirky, but calls just work.
The problem isn't in fitting an AM radio, but in suppressing the Electromagnetic interference from the Electric motors and circuity.

Hopefully the FCC will wake up and insist that they fix the interference, and not just hide it by not fitting an AM radio.
It seems to be before Aldi Nord bought Trader's joes, which happened in the 70s.
This made me laugh. I was definitely being a bit of a nudge and just free-form conspiracy theorizing. The idea that Rio had to register all their sources never even occurred to me.
Cofounder Sergey Brin Just Filed His First Code Request in Years
Probably it's just a little unity world with a visual filter, some models and movements that those models make, and then you train GPT-3 by giving it the API of what scenes, actions, and camera angles are available, and have it generate those in combination with a script and laugh tracks.
Dynamic languages large code based are, in my 14yo experience, much much harder.
Today no one a serious project with javascritpt, AFAIK everybody use typescript. Why?
From time to time I buy dried figs, apricots, plums etc from Costco. Next time I'll be sure to check haha
It is certainly questionable research, but from the lived experience of a superannuated engineer (me!) not an HR group.

As for gaslighting? Well, my aim is indeed to make you work harder. Not only that, but for you to have more money not less. At all levels — our society, the sector in which we work, our businesses as a whole and each team in those businesses — your success has a positive effect on everyone else as well as on you and part of that success will come as “legal tender”.

The flip side is that if we all drag our heels, everyone is worse off. I have sadly met many people in my life who seem to want everyone else to be as miserable as they are.

(Your comment way up this thread talks about jobs with low wages with no future prospects. You make a good point and those jobs really are different — one is unlikely to innovate oneself to greater wealth as a coal miner. Lots of us here on HN don’t fall into this category of work though, and yet, alas, I see the mindset of the low pay / low prospects worker more and more in the tech sector.)
> If these silly laws were enforced, you'd have to shut down the whole Internet anyway.

No, the tracking across sites will stop. None of those "silly" laws prohibit the use of e.g. session cookies.
It’s a show about nothing.

It's a classic comedy of manners, a style as old as the hills.

The "show about nothing" spiel with the implied "which is completely original and has never been done before" was true in it's demarcation from traditional sitcoms based around forced scenarios but always complete rubbish
with the latter intention and a brilliant marketing line.
The ending was superb.

"She will be alone in the garden, for the gate is closing. Others arrive too late."
How is it trusted by 400 engineers already?
Despite popular belief, rent is set by the renters - not greedy landlords (they wish they could but it can't go higher than someone wants to pay.)

So now you have people who are no longer compelled to live in SF by high pay, and SF itself has deteriorated in quality of life due to political decisions. Compared to a "nice place where I have to be", a "crappy place I don't have to be" isn't going to have folks paying the same rent, because they're moving out.

I don't quite understand why this isn't manifesting in NYC yet, but it must happen at some point.
You should check the percentage of LN for N>=7 for ic and manager track.

Will this "premium" version include fixes for all the obvious and terrible bugs people keep complaining about? They're barely acceptable for a free product.

If they can spend billions on AI maybe they can assign like ONE person to caring about Teams??
I don't think it's enough to matter. At least, I've demoed to a lot of people and never encountered one. I've seen artificial motion cause often, but never just using VR.
My question was specifically about bitcoin, due to its nature it's not a normal investment, it's not an investment at all, it's pure gambling.
Nope!

We tackle what we can, and we end up with the rest.

And there is always something left, fundamentally.
There are L9 managers whose sole contributions have been empire building and politics. I know one who in fact had negative contributions but played the politics very well
This layoff was only disclosed to very few people.
Not feeling it as a renter. Half-decent one bedrooms (we're talking about 70-plus-year-old buildings) outside of the grungiest parts of SoMa are still easily $3000-3500 or more. The management company has barely any incentive to keep renters happy, plenty more waiting for their turn to move in at a moment's notice.

For all of the talk of the city being turned into an apocalyptic wasteland, it's still easily a landlord's market and the prices are still astronomical for what you get.
There is another term for when the state does it — propaganda.
Indeed, including the ecosystem break between Scala 2 and 3. /s
> As a last resort, the employer might require the candidate to write the cover letter in person in the assessment centre with no access to the internet.

That's a verbal interactive activity and it's called the interview isn't it? :)
Side note:

> I’ll never find the post

This a big pet peeve of mine on linkedin and twitter - doesn't matter if I navigate away from the page for just a second; if the algorithm reshuffles my feed at all, there's a good chance I'll never see that post I was looking for again.

It's a real bummer if I ever need to find anything. The only solution I can think of is storing every link I come across in a searchable format, just in case I need to find anything.
I know they are safe to eat, but now I never want to eat a fig again! I was never that fond of them in the first place...
The figs you generally buy at a supermarket are usually of a self-fertile variety of the common fig (or are sprayed with a specific hormone to induce fruiting) but almost all of the 800+ other species of figs have their own corresponding species of fig wasps that pollinate just that one species of fig. Luckily for you these wasps are tiny and you're very unlikely to notice them. Just a minor protein boost to your fruit
That's why this uses the same client ID as Microsoft Teams and connects to the same backends.

Don't get me wrong, the Teams servers aren't the fastest out there - but processing a 50 MB JSON with Javascript (well, Angular) is probably not needed at all if your goal is just to see a chat message. We do that heavy lifting on the server side (that anyways runs locally on your PC), so that the client can get the messages without all of the mess.
In their Show HN post they mentioned some bits about the tech stack: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33833645

The visuals are rendered in Unity (I guess in real time), maybe their models spit out dialog including stage directions?

Yes, the Medium Wave AM band is quite narrow and wouldn't fit a single TV station, or a useful amount of Internet.

That said however, there are lots of other systems which could fit in the MW AM band.
Oh hey it is Collin Purrington, whose conference poster templates I regularly used at conferences during PhD- https://colinpurrington.com/tips/poster-design/
In that case, I think your opinion of 7.62 recoil is colored more by the rifle than the round. The design of the M14 is...less than ideal for recoil control. The bore axis sits far above the point of contact with the shoulder, which creates an upward torque when recoil pushes backwards on it, resulting in excessive muzzle rise.

A large part of the reason AR-pattern rifles are so controllable is because the bore axis is in line with the shoulder. The FAL (and its clone, the L1A1) bore axis may not be quite in line with the shoulder, but it's much closer than an M14.

As far as the supposed heat issues...I think the goal posts are being moved quite a lot. I'm talking about controllability during semi-auto fire, that's all.
They did — there were 6 landings, and 3 other missions to the moon that didn't land.
That's a questionable claim.
It's supposed to run provided promise and return its status. If deps changed or component is unmounted while promise is pending, it should inform currently running promise using AbortSignal. And it should handle edge cases (e.g. promise is changed, second promise is started but first promise ignored abort signal and resolved to a value. This value should be ignored).

Basically it should remove any boilerplate from user of this API and handle edge cases.
And Sydney is a dump compared to Melbourne :)
Right, it might be possible to have chatGPT produce a set of movement scripts that run as part of the text of the show.

Tho i would imagine trying to get that working is a lot more work than just randomly choosing a set of pre-animated videos. I suppose if the video doesn't need to sync with the text, then you can create a large bank of them, and choose based on keywords from the text.
Maybe wrong use of words on my side.
// * Not as impacted by climate change as many other costal cities

What does that even mean? Like, what has happened to say NYC or Boston as part of climate change that has made them less desirable, vs SF?
I believe many distros achieve that feel using GNOME and the Dash to Dock extension
If you do find a wasp, then it's a good sign you're getting quality fruit. Figs are dependent on fig wasps to pollinate so if your fig doesn't have one it was either sprayed with a specific hormone to induce fruiting or is of a variety specifically bred to be self-fertile
Ah good call. Changed. Should US-MFA be grouped under US-MTV or are they separate campuses?
My point is that isn't the reality I see living in the city. It was closer to the reality I saw when I lived on the outskirts of the Mission and commuted downtown every day, but even then not as bad.

Here's some random photos I took in the past year https://imgur.com/a/Q0ZF1nH. Yes SF has some terrible bits, but just like the US I don't actually have to visit them all the time.
Yup. People evolved brains for a reason.
Mostly because it is what the ecosystem expects, not due to Go by itself.

Just like some other ecosystems expect C, JavaScript or PHP, and they aren't getting any design prices.

Go is a perfect example of how a not so great language, with the right killer use case and corporate sponsorship, gets wide adoption.
Figs are pollinated by fig wasps that die in the fruit. So I think figs are a pretty unique case and not indicative of something you have to worry about in most other fruit
Did that site just crumble under the weight of new visitors? It’s completely broken on my end
The two things I can think of are:

a) communication protocols that aren't encapsulated in http(s), websockets, or webrtc. There's good reasons for some of this, and it's not that limiting, since popular protocols tend to grow some of these encapsulations to circumvent lazy firewalls, but it sticks out to me. Additionally, a page/app can't run a server for other browsers to connect to, it's got to be intermediated with a separate server; it would be difficult to make an offline LAN multiplayer game work.

b) reliable non-interactive push messaging and/or background connectivity. Again, there's good reasons, and you wouldn't like every page/app to have this capability, but this capability enables good offline usability by fetching data when available and pushing user driven updates when available.

For example, Email should be offline capable, and it should have nearly all the messages that were available when last the device had connectivity, and it should let me compose new messages and replies and queue them until connectivity returns. Maybe it should even speak IMAP and SMTP, but JMAP is probably good enough and browser accessible. Same with other messaging systems, assuming they have queued messages and aren't online only.
Your point number 1, while informative, is not useful.

It is not up to an employee to choose a boss. So really, the only solution to this issue is your number 2 statement -> change jobs often. This will get you away from a shitty boss, (and a good one). You have to get out from under a shitty boss. That is the only solution.

So really, your number 1 should be: Never work for a shitty boss. Transfer laterally or find a new job if you thing your shitty boss is going to be your shitty boss for more than 1 to 1.5 years.

If you can't get out from under a shitty boss because you must stay in a same location and there are no other job opportunities, or you have a job so well-paying that you will never get a high-income job like this and you have high-income requirements like private schools for your kids, then you just have to eat the shit and pretend you like it. Get your enjoyment outside of work.
