This is something that you would consider to be common knowledge?
Some of the positive symptoms of schizophrenia are delusions, hallucinations, and thought disorder. I'd imagine a mouse could have all those things but how you would know without language is beyond me.

Schizophrenia and the related schizotaxia (a condition that is conjectured to be present in anyone who is schizophrenic) has a number of hidden phenotypes however, such as deficits in eye tracking

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3212396/

something like that must be detectable in animal models.
the model exhibits behaviour that we can deduce a schizophrenic mouse would have. Like social withdrawal. Are we sure they have schizophrenia? I am not so sure, and not that qualified to tell if that makes sense

This make perfect sense if one view SO as a FAQ site.

SO explicitly allows same person posting question and immediately answer it himself. This is weird if you see it as a forum, but this make sense if this is seens as FAQ.

edit: the HLR article covers this exact question much better than what I've posted here.

the concept of international telecommunication is novel from the perspective of the constitution, but anyway...

The 4th amendment starts:

>The right of the people

The preamble starts:

>We the People of the United States

The 17th amendment says:

>The Senate of the United States shall be composed of two Senators from each State, elected by the people thereof, for six years; and each Senator shall have one vote

It's pretty clear "the people" refers to citizens.
(as an IOS user)

IOS doesn't support emulators. The photo functions on the latest pixel phones are pretty slick (e.g. deleting unwanted objects in the scene). Nightsight is better on Android. File management makes sense on Android where as on IOS, it can be difficult or impossible to get access to files without going through the app. Local backups to file storage are basically impossible on IOS.

I could go on, but IOS is an appliance where as android feel more like a PC. IOS is what happens when apple is allowed to take the "mice only need one button" idea to it's most extreme.

Personally, I both love and hate the idea of passkeys. In terms of security, passkeys definitely have some real advantages, not to mention the convenience of never having to type a password or remember one again.

Still, they have a serious flaw: practically, you need a hardware device with you, and practically it will be a phone. I hate having to rely on having my phone handy to log into anything. What if I lose it? With a password I can log in from anywhere.

I feel like passkeys are a double-edged sword, like all of technology. On the one hand, they introduce new convenience and security, but on the other hand they make us even more tied to systems and devices. It's a lot of infrastructure that someone else has to maintain, and it's a single-point of failure in case you want to keep all your passkeys in iCloud, so you can migrate them to other iDevices.

We are crafting increasing complex systems with tighter and tighter integration into our lives and I think we need to be cautious of passkeys before accepting them so readily.

In short, there is no such thing as free convenience. There is always a cost, but we usually ignore that.
I know how you feel. Today I had an unexpected day off and the default thinking mode is how to use this day efficiently. I decided against doing anything productive, but even then I try to make sure I read the "best" book (ideally a classic) or find the best spot to enjoy my coffee, which should be the best as well. It is crazy.

What works for me, which I eventually managed to do today is to get off the computer and get outside. Just pick a direction and go. I took a bike ride, brought a coffee and a book and just sat on a bench watching people, reading and remembering that life is good. It doesn't really matter what I do as long as I get out. Nature works best, but going to a museum or just some new shop in the neighborhood also works. Even if I feel awkward as hell in the beginning as it just feels weird to do these things alone.
Yeah, I've definitely had informal conversations with AI experts where they've talked about collecting spells for their spell books!
I wouldn't hold my breath. There isn't much phone software written in Rust, and the few things that are (eg. Polari) rely heavily on C for GUI resources. I like Rust but this seems like a bad area to focus on IMO.

> It was painfully obvious that nearly nobody wanted to take 8:00 AM classes when I was in college.

Too right. I, and a number of classmates, got screwed one year by our college when enrollment was a good deal lower than forecast. I had wisely enrolled in a 9AM math class but there was a whole spread of classes by one professor that were under-enrolled so they combined them all into one class.

At 7AM.

It was supreme bullshit.
The primary purpose of S.O. is to produce a searchable corpus of answers with few duplicates and pretty high-quality answers.

The issue is that by discouraging participation in the community, you end up with a repository of old questions with decent answers (that may or may not be 'decent' anymore) and fewer newer questions with even worse answers.

My experience is that using SO is basically trying to find a middle ground between an answer that is too old to be relevant, but not so new that the effect of the stagnation of the community hasn't made the answer less than helpful.
Reaction to title: No. But fortunately for me, neither is anyone else.

+ 100. This is even the case when analysts are working with datasets that are created by their colleagues at the same company. Since most companies don't have clear standards for column header labelling, etc. getting a new dataset and incorporating it into an existing workflow requires collaboration with others from inside your company.

I wish there was a monthly post like this! There should be a monthly project post "Hey, I'm working on X, I need help with Y" or something like that.

Example: I'm not very technical, but I'm very much into the product, operations, and market-fit/research side of things, and have access to funding. I want to join a team where I can grow and learn things, but also do cool shit with cool people. Currently, I'm running a small business as a side-hustle to build a bit of capital, but want to jump back into tech/startups as soon as I can.

I would imagine a monthly post highlighting skills and projects would be great - would be great for people who need something to do, project work, upskilling work for CV building, etc...

I've actually had a few conversations that started from HN posts about what other folks are working on, and they were really enjoyable and I was fortunate to learn interesting things.

Their original objective was to be the place to ask/answer programming to related questions, but I do agree - the sheer scale has devolved them into simply optimizing search for said questions instead of focusing on maintaining quality.

Pretty common trade off in large tech these days
The vast majority of upgradeable machines are never actually upgraded. Basically no laptop can have its CPU or GPU upgraded to begin with.

Upgradability is not free. It has a weight and volume cost. Depending on implementation it can also have a performance cost - for example a user-swappable battery means a 30-40% reduction in battery capacity OR a corresponding increase in weight+volume. For another example SODIMM slots take up space and are larger than surface mount soldered DRAM chips... I mean that should be obvious right?

Conspiracy theorists are gonna see conspiracy theories.

Engineers look at ancient "luggables", imagine a future where Star Trek pads exist, then incrementally iterate reducing power consumption on 200 different individual components, shrinking the volume of 27 different assemblies, and making thousands of difficult choices - all of which has to yield a sellable product today so there will even be a chance to improve in the future. There is no magic. You can't wave your wand and make the future week-long battery life laptop that weighs nothing appear out of nowhere. Somewhere along the way you have to decide if you are going to keep the space for the extra connectors and SSD controller or if you're going to integrate everything to shave off some weight and reduce volume, along with cut power consumption by removing a single chip. The nay-sayers claim the gains are minimal for those specific changes but you can make that claim for most of the changes made along the way to get from a luggable to the modern MacBook Air. Some people really needed SCSI ports and are still angry they're gone. If everyone listened to those people laptops would have the weight of bricks and get 20 minutes on battery.

History has proven those with the engineer mindset are more likely to be successful than those with the conspiracy mindset but it's up to each person to choose.

The actual rule here is about question where every answer is equally valid, so asking for pure opinions (https://stackoverflow.com/help/dont-ask). Questions that have multiple potential answers are valid questions in general.

There are questions that are somewhere in between, something like "which approach is better here?". Those tend not to go well on SO even though they theoretically could be on-topic. This is a case where the community is sometimes overzealous, but it's extremely hard to consistently apply these rules to complex edge cases. And many questions of this kind do not fit to the rules and are closed correctly. These questions usually require quite a bit of familiarity with SO to formulate them in a way that works on the site.

Marcus Aurelius—quoted from memory, so probably not quite right, and it's in translation at any rate:

I personally found the "think the right way" easy to get into, but without the "act the right way" it can indeed lead to apathy, detachment, and avoidance. Whoops.
This is slightly off topic, but still related to SO, Reddit, or whatever community out there that is being used for getting any kind of help:

Most people doesn't know what they are trying to solve or achieve. And/or they don't know how to phrase themselves correctly.

Look at /r/Unity3D, which I frequently visit, and you can see _tons_ of duplicate questions, with different wording, because the OP doesn't know what to search for to find the solution to the problem at hand.

I see the same thing in SO as well, which is why I have also disregarded that for problem-solving information. I'm back to finding out stuff the hard way; reading the documentation and use my 30-year old programming knowledge to sort it out.

Sometimes I share my knowledge on f.ex. /r/Unity3D, but often gets downvoted because it's illegal to use _anything_ that GCs in a simple ping pong game. So you need to use difficult to use data structures instead.
If you are, enjoy it while it lasts.

If you use zenmonitor, what is the package power on a typical workload? It should be 2-3W maximum normally. If it's too high, it's a too common case of manufacturers setting insane tweakables, and can be remediated using amdctl/ryzenadj/zenstates (or in some BIOSes using the PBO2 setting). Otherwise, it can sometimes be a bad SSD using a lot of power.
@nerdponx This is really a great question. We are currently using AI for schema generation as well as column matching. The column matching is done with the Dice's Coefficient in yobulk system. But with chatgpt's column matcher, we are leveraging the model of chatgpt to match the columns. Further, there is a roadmap for auto cleaning by keeping the historical records and bulding a model to sense the data type entered into the csv for the specific organization.We give the user final power to decide which if the GPT output is correct or not.Happy to engage with you on this topic.
I think you’re overestimating the cost of this cleanup by 2 or 3 orders of magnitude. Vinyl chloride is not particularly toxic, has low environmental persistence, and does not bioaccumulate.
1Password's and Dashlane's implementation keeps the key material and does crypto in software, meaning it's less isolated from the operating system than hardware-backed implementations. That might be an acceptable tradeoff for some, but definitely not for all, and I doubt that was the original intention of FIDO2 when it was designed -- the spec only mentions virtual authenticators in the context of testing.

I hope the FIDO alliance members come up with a solution that has both hardware backing and third-party vendors. I'd love to have 1Password syncing passkeys to Yubikeys or secure element that can be used independently of the 1Password app and subscription itself.

Perhaps I should have qualified with "and so costly". When I was coming up Air Jordan shoes were the thing to have. Yet even the most expensive pair was considerably cheaper, and there were some less expensive versions too. The shoes were also a weak signal because few thought less of me for not having them, even fewer cared when I got a less expensive pair.
That's exactly my point of view. Human-vetted AI content is just content that the human could write themselves, like a fancy autocomplete.

It's not about code quality in terms of variable names and things like that, it's more about architectural decisions. What assumptions do you make, what edge cases do you cover, how much flexibility you build into the design, how extensible is it, what kind of tests do you write, etc.?
If/when keepassxc supports them I'll likely start using them. As it stands I'm not putting all my eggs(keys) in a third-party basket, one that might decide to shut my account with them for no reason or recourse (Google). Or to a device that can be lost, stolen, or broken. Having multiple devices and third party services to "fix" this is not the answer.
I would wager a guess that if you actually based success on revenue/employee, operating margins, and overall "healthy" business criteria, the number skews probably even higher.

I think it's better because Superman is more specific than American Pop Culture.

People always comment on HN title edits based on the cases that they noticed and disliked. That's not a valid generalization because it leaves out all the cases which actually improve things—those go unnoticed and unremarked on. From my point of view, meaningful discussion would have to be about what general rules or practices could improve HN's quality as a whole. For example: leave titles unedited? that would be catastrophic. Edit them differently? if so, how exactly? Edit titles such that no one is ever annoyed by an edit? impossible.

Obviously the way we do it isn't perfect and there are going to be false positives no matter what we do—but I'm not aware of any other approach that would lead to significantly greater front page quality. Quite the opposite actually.

One thing that also goes unremarked on is that when we see people complaining about titles, we nearly always change the title until the complaints stop. I'm sorry that didn't happen in the case of this title and your complaint—but it usually does work out. If it didn't, title complaints (either about edited titles or unedited ones) would be far more dominant here than they are. That's actually how we learned to do things this way. Community feedback is a pretty rigorous trainer.
That's an interesting difference but I'm not convinced it's valid. Perhaps you can explain what you mean in more detail?

Let's say the software is good enough if it does the right thing 99.9% of the time it is used. I take it, you're saying that if an AI starts modifying it and only writes correct code in 99.9% of cases (yes, current AI is not even close, but it will improve), that makes it worse because the software might start failing completely. However, if you have proper tests and release management, such obvious flaws will quickly be detected and fixed or rolled back. For most applications that seems pretty much equivalent to what we have now.

The other case is software that is completely AI generated and cannot reasonably be modified by humans anymore. In that case, again, you have tests and a sane deployment strategy that mitigates failures to a sufficient degree depending on application.

So the only issue is when you start making a completely AI generated software and fail to ever meet requirements, or pass the human written test cases? Users at least will never be impacted by that. Even now, many human-written software projects never get to the stage where they can be used. Is this really a problem, especially if the attempt at AI generation of software is cheap?
If the compiler has good loop optimizations, the front end can turn foreach into an ordinary loop with a hidden variable:

for (x in array)
print(x)

->

const __local0017 = array.len;
for (var __local0018 = 0; __local0018 < __local0017; __local++) {
const x = array[__local0018];
print(x);
}

The middle and back ends will infer that __local0018 doesn't exceed __local0017 which is the length of array and get rid of the bound check.

I'm really hoping the residents and rail workers realize they need to come together for this common cause. Unfortunately, busting the rail strike as both parties did only contributes to this problem in a major way. Nobody is coming to save us. These issues can only be resolved with people coming together in collective action.

As a side note, i hope they go bankrupt and we expropriate them. Railroads are too important to leave largely to the private sector. Our rail infrastructure compared to really any developed nation is abysmally sad.
Contemporary mindfulness practices are a harmful corruption of the original approach. A good book on the subject is Right Mindfulness: Memory & Ardency on the Buddhist Path[1] by Ven. Thanissaro.

> For the past several decades, a growing flood of books, articles, and teachings has advanced theories about the practice of mindfulness which are highly questionable and—for anyone hoping to realize the end of suffering—seriously misleading. The main aim of this book is to show that the practice of mindfulness is most fruitful when informed by the Buddha’s own definition of right mindfulness and his explanations of its role on the path.
