Shit, Ive already used chatgpt for a cover letters, its fantastic. I hate writing them, no one reads them but I dont want to leave it blank and I dont want it to be "bad"
I love using regexes whenever I need a way to parse HTML. Also whenever I parse nested parentheses, brackets, or braces.
I’m not US based.

I don’t know about the social crisis, but if I were the US antitrust I’d take a look at whether a tech sector cartel exists to depress wages.
They missed one.

> Therefore, we conducted a proof-of-concept study that randomized 70 amnestic MCI patients to a 1-year program of AET or a non-aerobic stretching and toning (SAT), active control group. Thirty-six patients completed both baseline and follow-up MRI scans, and cerebral WM integrity was measured by WM lesion volume and diffusion characteristics using fluid-attenuated-inversion-recovery and diffusion tensor imaging respectively.

WM lesions/integrity aren't the same thing as amyloid levels, though it looks like a bunch of studies have looked at them together and have found relationships. I'm sure they appear together in the same text a lot.

I think that might be one conflation. It also got the journal wrong, and I don't see Cooper Inst. referenced in the affiliations section (though I'm not sure what form that would take).

But I'm pretty sure that's the 70 person study being referenced, unless it was another that was run just like it. Worth noting also that 36/70 (the final group size) is just shy of 52%. I think that might be why it was "52 weeks" and not "one year" for the program.

I believe that's medicalspeak for the 6th and 7th bullet points in the Bing summary. I'm not sure if the full article would reflect the rest.

For me, it's result #114.
I majored in classical music, released 40 records, played to hundreds of thousands of people, produced national US radio shows, recorded bands, tended bars, washed cars, been a cook, built generative music systems and much more.

It is precisely due to my varied experience that I can point this out: the vast majority of startups and tech is dust in the wind.
Another thing I don’t get is that there’s not much to learn really. Basic regex knowledge covers 90% of them and requires reading a page or two.
Noone said it was their highest priority. But given that HN has a daily stream of horror-stories/complaints from SaaS/cloud/payment users, it would be unreasonable to expect us to wade through them if we don't at some point get a brief follow-up saying what the outcome (and possibly the root-cause) were, and in what timeframe, and how to avoid/fix this for other users, or else which alternative companies to use.

And to requote the OP back to you like I did above, given that customer support told them there's a 24hr limit to that ban becoming permanent and tried to help them get it resolved before then, in this case it was in fact entirely reasonable to expect at least a one-line update within (in this specific case) a day, since either way the outcome would be known.

And in fact here's the OP's followup post: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34721870
NextDNS is the best option for ads and junk, because it's applies to all apps and works from anywhere.

I also find Brave a lot simpler than Firefox + installing add-ons, and it uses uBO lists by default which is mostly what I care about.
> the asylum seekers themselves are in any way decent or good or deserving of support

I think the many generally feel the same way about refugees but just that a lot of the people arriving are not validly refugees. People boating out of France to the UK are, by international definition, not refugees. They've already escaped persecution in their home countries.

My parents jumped a border while emigrating to avoid a war so I empathize but I wish we could discuss the topic without emotionally loading it by calling people asylum seekers when they are not or implying that others don't care about people in general. There are resource and fairness issues that emotional appeals won't make go away.
But CPU performance strongly plummeted everywhere, there won’t be significantly faster CPUs in 4 years than what 4 years would have meant in the early days.
A centralized federal ID system, I'm sure there's no historical precedent for how this could go wrong.
OP here. You are absolutely correct. I'm in a rural part of Norway which is nicknamed "Norges matfat" (which translates roughy to "Norway's dinner plate"), because of how so much of our produce comes from here.
Moreover, I'm not exactly a company, but just one guy doing this in his free time. My day job is at a software company called Grensesnitt (check it out: https://www.grensesnitt.no)
Why would it come with a different connector than the primary device that you use them with?

I am sure if Apple is going to comply with the USB-C mandate we are going to get USB-C AirPods after that.
If there's no plan for how to get the paid money back from holders when the network stops being profitable then its a dilution.
I am disappointed that the encoder/decoder state can't be 'checkpointed'.

Imagine this usecase:. We're sending tiny messages over a tiny link. Every byte matters - if we can cut a 10 byte message down to 7, that will really help. So we compress each message as part of a stream, flushing at message boundaries.

However, sometimes messages are lost on the route, and we might decide not to retransmit them - there might now be more relevant stuff to say over the link.

Zstandard has to way to 'undo' a compression operation on a data stream.
Android since version 5 AOT compiles the code, since version 7 it JITs first and then AOT compiles on idle, nowadays not only it JIT/AOT compiles it does so by using PGO metadata shared across devices via the PlayStore.

AWS is planning to retire Simple Monthly Calculator after Friday, March 31, 2023
The are that's going to covered by the next tile when stacked is well known in advance. Obviously solar cells are not installed in this area. As for the shading from leaves or something, typically diodes are installed in solar panels to prevent current flow into the shaded parts. This helps mitigate the power loss from shades.
I go into downtown (specifically soma) about once a week. It is just an absolute ghost town now. The biggest change is in the energy - there was a real mood to friday after work in that area with bars and restaurants filling up.

I don't know what to make of it.
No. A Ponzi scheme is paying existing investors with the deposits from new investors. That's not what's happening here.
> Lightning was what Apple standardized on when the world was still using dock connectors with completely incompatible pinouts and wire protocols.

What? Lighting is what Apple imposed (to themselves) when the world standardized on micro USB and Apple was still using dock connectors.
Grata, well deserved.
It's complicated, because by slacking off you're indirectly pulling your teammates down (as explained by the OP), which means less work-related opportunities for them, which can mean lots of not ok things: less money to send their kids to college, less money for retirement, less money for lots of other things.

A similar thing, but with much higher stakes, happens on the front-lines during a war. Confronted with a much superior enemy your individual optimal decision would be to desert, or, at least, to retreat, no matter what the high-command located at the back of the front has to say about it. They're not the ones who are going to die.

But, in doing that, you're weakening the flanks of the other brigades/platoon from your side with which you're sharing the front-line, and in so doing you're drastically decreasing the chances for them to see their kids and their wives back home.
It's a Ponzi scheme with extra steps.
Looks awesome and I've already shown it to a few folks.

I'd avoid the "military grade" encryption marketing part though. For a lot of people, "military grade" means lowest bidder.

Correct. I believe New York has, or is attempting to, ban body armor.
But thats exactly the point of this law? No matter - big player, small player - don't sell the junk that will break in a few month.
> To be clear, I am not arguing that it would be impossible to show a theory of mind in a system that can only interact through text

I think you are, because

> a model with greater capabilities than responding to prompts

interacts in other ways than text.

Even then, I don't see what's so special about language that it needs to be separated from other ways of interaction. If language is not enough to derive empirical answers, why should physical movements or radio emissions be?

Even if you don't assume that it's necessarily impossible to get the answers empirically for a text-based model, you must keep in mind that that option is open. Perhaps we will never find out if language models have a theory of mind.

However, judging by the discussions around the topic, very few people highligh the unknowability. If I have to choose between "yes" or "no" while the reality is "maybe", I'd choose a "yes" purely out of caution.
> think of their employees as being like virtual servers, easy to spin up and easy to shut down

This is called “contracting” and it has been around regardless of whether there’s an office.
I mean, it sang eulers formula in the voice of tupac just fine. it might be bullshit but I find this fascinating

It's a mathematical truth, e to the pi times i

A concept so profound, it could make angels cry

A number so simple, that Tupac can explain

The equation e to the pi times i, is negative one

or it can describe ada lovelaces contribution to computer science in the voice of the cookie monster

Cookie Monster here! Ada Lovelace was a visionary when it came to computer science. She had the very first ideas of how computers could be used to do specific tasks, instead of just crunching numbers like a calculator. She wrote instructions for the first computer, a special type of weaving machine, that would make the machine able to do a lot more than just weave fabric. Her instructions, called an algorithm, showed how the computer could be used to solve mathematical problems and, eventually, be used for a wide range of applications. With her pioneering work, she is credited with being the world's first computer programmer. So, if you're ever writing code, remember to thank Ada Lovelace! She's the one who made it all possible.
It's not that.

Let's take a concrete example given in the article. BHP group. You can buy BHP shares in 3 different primary listings. BHP.L[1] (on the LSE, listed in GBp), BHP[2] (on the NYSE, listed in USD) or BHP.AX[3] (listed in AUD on the ASX). These are fundamentally the exact same shares in the same company, but are listed in different countries. The only difference between them is the listing currency you pay to buy/receive on sale. When you receive the shares you actually get the same exact ISIN (I believe).

So say you hold some BHP and its price is underwater at the moment. You believe in the long-term prospects of the company and have made profits in general that you have to pay tax on. You could sell the BHP, realise the loss (offsetting these other taxes to an extent) and buy again. However that "bed and breakfasting" (as it used to be called in the UK) has been declared illegal. If you were to sell in the US and then immediately buy on any US market that would be illegal. But if you sell in the US and then buy in London or Sydney (in this example) that is allowed.

How the tax advantage works is you are literally taking an extra mark-to-market loss and offsetting that against other profits. Yes if you instead held and eventually made a profit you would pay less in that scenario, but in that scenario you are paying in future dollars whereas with the offsetting you are gaining today's dollars. Today's dollars are more value because of discounting.

That's exactly what happens here because new coins minted for stakers have any value only because new investors purchase the currency and prop up its price.

Once new investors dry out and price collapses stakers will be rewarded with same amount of coins now worth nothing (just like IOU in Ponzi) and will be left with staked coins of 0 value, just like in Ponzi.
Are those fake chargers/cases compatible with the genuine earbuds? I'd have no qualms about getting some of those if so.
I didn’t downvote you, but surely your very niche requirement doesn’t add much to the discussion.

Even though, that is very cool line of work and I’m sure I would be similarly biased for the tech I helped form, but it is simply not a general requirement as shown by very very few phones having them.
>> 79 percent of millennial eat meat alternatives

Eat or "tried once and never again?

>> 30 percent consume meat alternatives every day

Hard to believe, if so, this is localized to a very small region/demographic.

Remember that stocks for fake meat companies are falling.
The IRS may be underfunded, but it's misleading to say the IRS does not go after the wealthy for tax fraud. The chart in that article shows $1M+ earners to have the highest audit rate, albeit some of it correspondence audit, and says 25% of audit man hours are spent on millionaires.

In the few European countries where Pixel is on sale, it is more like 100 euros above the average price of 300 euros for mid-range phones.

How can you do that? My apple pencil (the new gen) doesn’t even register as a dumb stylus on my iphone 12 pro max.
That ignores the problem that many H-1B holders will be forced to leave the country. It's in poor taste that these companies are doing this, as it could be the reason that a lot of solid talent leaves the U.S. The U.S. already lost a lot of talent during the pandemic.
Where are you getting 1 million numbers from? There have been maybe 100k total layoffs from top companies being publicized. Even that is a fraction of the total numbers of engineers in the industry, if we spread out the definition alot and go LALALA with our fingers in our ears.

Not dismissing 100k. That's a significant number and I hope everyone will be ok in the end.
These figures look pretty good to me:

> Breed recounted how even though the city has struggled to return to its pre-pandemic state, downtown San Francisco was in far worse shape after the 1906 earthquake.

Lol you know things are bad when the Mayor is saying at least it isn't as bad as the aftermath of the worst natural disaster in California's history.
They're saying there's a distinction of being able to communicate freely (and possibly lie) while still not showing your final action to defect or cooperate. Which yes, leaves the prisoners dilemma much the same as the 0 forms of comms version.
"What a life!" is usually what people say when they see a trust fund kid blow up the family wealth in a spectacular way and this isn't much different.
Exactly right.

These companies are bad news, completely random management, dead end projects.

Worse yet, if you work there, you are dramatically disconnected from the startup market. And prevented from getting modern skills.

At least in startups in theory skills are mor transferable because the market is larger.

I found large companies deeply unfulfilling and do not see myself going back: they are recipes for total frustration.
"That’s how the big players killed hardware startups in Europe"

The big players fought this law tooth and nail because they didn't want to guarantee their devices for that long. They definitely did not want this and did not use this an opportunity to "kill hardware startups in Europe".

In fact Apple initially refused to offer the 2 year warranty[1]

If there is one thing I've learned from reading all the comments on HN it is that management is stupid.
> but that's only maybe true during the hiring process. If you work well, after some months, it will be corrected.

Never happens. I have no idea where you got this from, but someone fooled you really hard.
That would mean that number of total ETH drops. Is that true?
Do you think I give a shit about what you think of my superfluous words? Huh?

Do you have anything substantive to say about the comments themselves as opposed to a hyperfixated diatribe based on a single superfluous word? Because everyone and their grandmothers is bored of your “holier than thou” soapbox ramblings about how you perceive random people on the internet.

And just because you clearly don’t get it, the word “even” can be used for emphasis when something you are reacting to is absurd. Crazy thing, English, eh?
> Most concerning, though, is that our solution to a failure to register violation is to shut down entirely a program that has served people well. The program will no longer be available in the United States, and Kraken is enjoined from ever offering a staking service, registered or not. A paternalistic and lazy regulator settles on a solution like the one in this settlement: do not initiate a public process to develop a workable registration process that provides valuable information to investors, just shut it down.

Well said by SEC Commissioner Hester M. Peirce
Doesn’t it have your social security number?
> iPhones have an ecosystem around lighting, cables docks devices etc, to change that would cause users to be far more upset then having a different cable then other devices, see the outrage when they switched to lightning in the first place

Actually incredible to me that people can have this mindset. Have an adapter for your gaff proprietary cable with MFI chips to make sure third parties can't make long-lasting ones cheaply, not for the standardised USB-C one.
a bunch of if statements, splits, looping and whatever

Also few off by ones and edge condition bugs lurking in “whatever”.
Note: they can. Moore’s law didn’t end in its original form (we do get more transistors per unit still), but the usual interpretation of “faster CPUs” are long gone. So hopefully stronger focus on performance will happen soon.
It's useful for the NIMBYs and historical conservation areas.
You know that crowds can have multiple different opinions that are conflicting at the same time.

Wait for it… even single person can hold 2 or more conflicting opinions or views at the same time. Fun part is they also can and will use them in discussions as they see fit.

There is no law or logic involved.
The golden age, before everything had to be privatised and run into the ground.
I can see merit to that, as it's trying to be a good money more than Ethereum, and nation states won't adopt a currency with technical risk.

I just think it ossified way too early and then to justify that they come up with religious arguments that "actually 21m coins on a diminishing curve is the perfect economic policy and any meddling is bad"

Sure, but that's probably going to unfairly impact the poor.

Should the government have intervened when they were hiring too many people? Should the government intervene to have them more effectively use their personnel?
One of the good reasons for a recession is that it forces the hand of these large tech companies to stop sitting on huge properties. It’s really a shame.
> the car accelerated from 39 mph to a top speed of 67 mph 2 seconds before the final tree impact, which occurred at about 57 mph. The application of the accelerator pedal ranged from 8% to 98% during the 5 seconds of recorded data, and there was no evidence of braking.

My hot take is that it shouldn't be possible to accelerate that quickly unless you actually apply the pedal to 100%.

Also, I think the accelerator and brake pedals should have a different feel. Maybe they should be made of different materials so there is clear tactile feedback.
because at&t doesn't feel like upgrading equipment. too much effort.
in general they made a strategic decision to invest mainly in wireless.
you can also throw into mix words like "absence of government regulation" and "regional monopoly".
