Sure, the general problem I'm bemoaning is that the "first things that come to mind" always seem to be the tangible actions aimed at mitigating the distributed fallout from economic central planning, rather than ever putting the brakes on the overwhelming corporate welfare causing most of the damage to begin with.

The Fed engaged in additional QE as a direct response to Covid. Fraudulent PPP "loans", while despicable, are much closer to the little guy than QE, artifically low interest rates, and even open pondering of the central bank buying stocks.

As for bad faith - the dynamic is like saying one wants small government, and then attacking the Postal Service or the National Parks. Invoking the general argument to draw ire, and then directing that attention at things besides the overwhelming systemic problems burns up the energy of the original critique and is at the very least echoing people who are arguing in bad faith.

Wouldn't we see an increase (equal or more) in chicken meat prices as well? If the info is correct...

2020-2023 chicken meat is ~22% higher: https://www.in2013dollars.com/Chicken/price-inflation/2020-t...

API Gateways vs. Load Balancers
And yet, this part is inconsistent with the part the headline comes from: they argue for causation because they asked individual random students to quit social media for 4 weeks, and saw an improvement of their mental health.
Well, eventually the sun will explode into a red giant; and if we make it past that somehow, the universe will cool down and spread out so much that we won't be able to have enough energy to do stuff. So, even if we don't "go extinct", either our solar system or our universe will.

Still, I think the question on people's minds is whether it's 2 Billion years, 200 years, or - if the US and Russia play their nuke cards - maybe less :-(
I have a daughter, I mostly agree.
I like to remind people teenagers are not "little" adults, they lack full developed brains, and extremely susceptible to peer pressure.

I restrict my kids social media very tightly, and make sure they have lots of real world activities and real world influences.
Reflecting on that question means saying things that many people would find offensive. It's a lost cause to suggest that corporations implicitly understand something innate about female psychology and are taking advantage of it, and that's exactly why social media wins; the current politics you mentioned are a protective layer against taking meaningful action against the machine. If society was as concerned about the online activity of boys (news flash, your kid is likely watching hardcore porn every day), action would be more swift because there's no political manifold to dissuade elders from trying to save boys. This analogy is of course imperfect because parents are evidently not as concerned about boys.

> you would think one solution to this issue would be to advance a society in which women are valued equally to men.

There's no reason to believe such a society can exist any more than believing it's possible for a thing to be both dry and wet at the same time. It's dubious whether such a society is even desirable, and even if it is, it's been debated since time immemorial and isn't a practical way to address real world issues. You might as well ask why the world can't be more like Star Trek.
Or a Teletype.
StackOverflow seems to be the ultimate litmus test for ChatGPT at this point for coding work. Pros: it customizes the code more than StackOverflow will. Cons: Subtle errors that can be difficult to spot at first glance, but could be easily caught when run/tested. Like for example I will see it trying to import functions from modules, when the function doesn't exist in that module but another one, and the code is mostly written like its okay otherwise.
You should google deaths from climate events over time. You’ll be surprised.

Powerful stuff.
If you do this with image upscaling models, previously invisible artifacts like ringing, noise patterns and such get "amplified." And thats after I culled the input dataset by hand

In other words, artifacts the model tends to generate or humans tend to miss will become more severe if fed into the input.

I think that is a significant concern, especially if the "GPT jank" patterns between models is similar.
All right, to steel-man your argument: Honestly, I think even your lowest-brow code camp copy-paste monkey is in a pretty good spot nowadays in the USA. It's easy to make a six figure income just churning out CRUD apps for 40 hours a week. Any company that won't pay up gets disrupted into oblivion by ones that will. (Or it just clunks along forever with a bunch of underpaid workers churning out low quality crap, like what we see from government/hospital systems. Either way, everything's fine.)

What do you want out of a software union?

(Keeping in mind that we can comfortably afford and demand basically any perk you can imagine.)
Imagine you keep applying for jobs and you get none because all the existing employees are recommending their friends who are inferior to you in skills, but the company is prioritizing referrals.

This is, and has always been, a real problem: That your ability to get good positions is limited not by your skill set but by your ability to network.
It kinda enumerated all possible characteristics of people and their approaches to technical issues, not something unique to HN.
>"Humans Could Go the Way of the Dinosaur"

Yes Sherlock we can. So fucking what? If there are actionable things that can be researched and developed to protect us from some potential existential disaster I believe we have started doing it.

If however something that we can not prevent comes crushing down, what's the point thinking about it?
You're effectively saying that you want more disabled features, just in case you want to upgrade your property at some point.
Or, instead of creating hyper rebellious kids who seek to go against your strong absolute rules - talk to them. Get them bored of social media. Explain what's really going on, what different forms of social media exist, how to talk to your friends directly in a safe way rather than go through the drudge of Instagram. What limits should exist when using any of these communication platforms. They'll understand.

Often we want to protect our family through rigid rules, but all that does is make them want to pull away more.
> Now they are just another corporation.

the Google Summer of Code still exists (and that other program for high school kids I think).

I think those were the nicest things they did back in the day, and I don't know of any other corp doing it.
The attempts to fix this has come from the left. That the defenders of this are center/right do not suggest "both sides support" this.
This looks interesting, specially the support of GTP/SCTP; although it seems quite new, first commit on github is last year, wonder if anyone has used this in production?
Ecosystems are the key, not so much in which house or how public it is built. (see: iOS) It's also a system for a car, and probably a niche one at that.

There are a few things that are relevant in Car-OS these days:

- Ecosystems
- Long-term maintenance
- Integration with a phone that takes over most day-to-day interactions
- Car should work without it

If MB.OS and BMW's version and Audi and whoever else wants to build one doesn't support CarPlay or Android Auto (or whatever their future incarnations will be), it is already irrelevant. If anything, MB.OS is about as relevant to a consumer as QNX is. Or VxWorks for that matter. (spoiler: consumer doesn't care and doesn't really want anything to do with it)

That doesn't mean that all car makers should just keep using an ancient QNX version statically forever, or whatever some OEM happens to install with the head units, but an in-house Linux distro with some vendor branding sauce really is about as relevant as blinker fluid.
You left out the rape stats. Last I checked, someone was murdered approx every 25 mins, and someone was raped approx every 15 mins.

Thanks a ton for this. As a father of a pre-teen daughter who begs for a smartphone every day, I’ve been anxious about how I’m going to deal with this situation. I’d only been thinking in terms of defence, and this article had me really worried. Planning for how to create the social opportunities is just as important. Defence and Offence. I really like it!
3 - Split up and create value.

Amazon, Microsoft, Google, etc are offensive companies in that the sum of the parts is greater than the whole.

Microsoft in particular is held back by having to support the platforms. Office as a standalone company would be worth more than Microsoft.
Right! And per some theories it was the Theia collision that brought carbon and nitrogen to Earth to kick start life in the first place.
One approach is value-based contracts: "we'll work with you and charge X% of the value we deliver."
Agreed. And it gets attention because it is a consequence of our actions. If we stop consuming too much, it won't change the asteroid situation (there we should actively do something). But the biodiversity/climate problem is the opposite: the problem is that we are doing too much!
I think it’s because you pick government. I don’t have faith in any large organization public or private not being corrupted. So if you merely don’t have faith in government, it implies you do have faith in non-government entities.
I doubt it. There's too many ways for this not to work - the police testifies "I never saw that billboard". Even if they admit they saw it, so what? Anybody can say anything on a billboard, the police officer could say "Oh yeah, I saw it, but I have no idea if it's true" - and plausible deniability is sufficient as I understand it.
That is an obviously incorrect assumption, it is possible to de-anonomize most data sets about and there is reason to believe this one is no different. Health data by it's nature is very personal and specific.
Google does it (or at least did). If I applied to some number (3 or 5, I forget), it will not let me apply to any more.
I just tried Codespaces last night, and I think after making two myself, this could lower the barrier for users to try out many projects, if they add a single devcontainer.json to their repo.
What's the legality of hacking these things, assuming you own the car?

For example, BMW charges $18/mo to turn on heated seats you already own. Am I legally allowed to hack their software to enable heated seats w/o paying? How about installing a wire and switch and running them manually?

- During use of social media webcamera should be turned on and competent goverment agent should check video feed real time to ensure that there no underage kids near and to ensure that user that use social media is the same that registered.
Again, this was the entire premise. The receiver was cited as being the impossible part. I was pointing out the flaws in that argument, not claiming the entire concept was economic.

By turning around and crying that I didn't say something unrelated you're being completely disingenuous.
My guess is that it's old tribal alliances vs what is best for a country.

... which is not special to Africa particularly. But Western Europe went through this centuries ago. It is said that the past is another country. The reverse is true.

There are other factors like fewer geographical separations. Lesotho and Namibia are more stable now because they are enclosed by mountains and separated from others by desert respectively.

Imagine if there was no water separating England and the European continent. There probably would not be an England. Or rather, no UK.
It's one thing to have a probationary period with the assumption being that, if things don't go utterly sideways, there's nothing to worry about. It's another thing to do a provisional hire thing where the implication is that if you wow us as much after three months as you did in the interview we'll fully hire you.

I'm fine with the former. Mostly wouldn't be with the latter.
I like Carter. Amazing ex-president. We aren't required to make him into a good president to say that he was a great humanitarian post-presidency. We especially shouldn't be shaming people who think that what he did in the few years he was in the most important position on the planet outweigh anything he could have done as a private citizen.
> it sounds like the real news is just how difficult this problem is - even for Apple

I've worked in this space for 5 years now, and this is not news to any of us. Today, a tiny, noninvasive device, that is accurate enough to make insulin dosing decisions, is pure science fiction. It's probably not impossible, but we'll literally be able to use stem cells to regrow human pancreases and straight-up cure people of diabetes before this tech becomes a reality. (We're much further along that path.)

What is interesting about this though is the possibility of using this device for non-diabetics who don't need extremely accurate glucose readings. A rough approximation of someone's blood glucose levels is enough to learn how your body reacts to different types of foods and exercise, and would be helpful for amateur athletes who can't afford to purchase real continuous glucose monitors, as well as pre-diabetics for whom CGMs aren't covered by insurance.
I think free range parenting is great in theory and/or if you are writing a book on free range parenting and have dedicated your life to understanding how to do it properly.

For the rest of us - particularly for dual income parents with teenagers who no longer really "play" - there are organized after school activities.

Its really about odds. You won't get outlier results like Bill Gates or <insert other famous person> but on the flip side you won't get a teenager you have to bail out of jail or a teenager pranking people for Tiktok views. You'll get a decent young adult that can earn a decent living and live independently and confidently.
> First, the mother is 8 months pregnant - there is virtually no developed country that allows abortion this late in the pregnancy.

You may be surprised to know that there are in fact several US States that allow abortion all the way up to birth with zero restrictions:[1] Alaska, Colorado, Minnesota, New Jersey, New Mexico, Oregon, Vermont and of course D.C.

Raising sexual harassment and rape rates can be contributing factor too. The boys commit more of those last years.

Any positivity I might sometimes happen to feel about humanity quickly proves to be misguided as soon I read what other humans have to say on the internet.

Leakster: No S Pen in Z Fold 5
> I asked Morris why he never took his hiccup research further. “Why did we never do a clinical trial? Well, you know, we got busy,” he said. “But also, how would we do a clinical trial? Who would pay for it? There’s no drug we can sell. Nobody will invest the money and hire all the people and do all the regulatory paperwork, because there’s no money to be made.”

Our health-care system is not designed to promote free cures. Patent laws allow innovators to profit from the discoveries they make or inventions they create, but only if those discoveries or inventions can be packaged as a product that enables some form of commercial gatekeeping. SSMI has no such market potential: It can be described in a couple of sentences, and copyright doesn’t cover it.

It’s hard to suppress the feeling that the crucial difference between SSMI and HiccAway is that only one of them can be monetized. I don’t at all think Seifi is motivated primarily by profit; he seems rightly proud to help people avoid a major minor nuisance. And he worked exceptionally hard for years to make the HiccAway straw a success.

But with that same motivation, could someone have done the same for the breathing technique? Maybe, for all the challenges of building a successful company, publicizing valuable but free information is even harder.
Lots of negative comments in this thread, which I can understand.

But let’s be fair, for a car manufacturer, carplay is the kiss of death.
It's the same principle applied to any entity fighting for freedom. I never posited that Christians in America are under imminent threat of being persecuted by the government. I'm just reinforcing that Christians should scrutinize Church/state interactions and be leery of overreach (on either side for that matter). I should clarify that when I say 'government' I mean all forms of it, just not in America.

In this case, I would agree the punishment wasn't severe enough.
> That's not the climate change problem, it's the biodiversity problem.

I agree with you. The state of our oceans is a much more current and verifiable problem than the actual EFFECTS climate change will have in the future. I’m not denying it exists.

But there’s a lot of conflating the mass extinction with climate change, but they’re not the same thing. And climate change gets all the money right now. Because it’s fashionable. Not because it’s necessarily optimal spending wise.
Every time a new expensive instrument like this is proposed, someone asks: “what will it find?”

We don’t know.

That’s point of building it!
It's trivial to de-identify someone from shockingly limited data. Just by submission to an outside service, they know a date, location, and whatever information was submitted. That's plenty, especially assuming they referenced a procedure or comorbidities.
Nixon was to the left of modern Democrats on most issues.
This is similar to the plot of Greg Egan's Schild's Ladder. Fantastic book.

> Twenty-thousand years in the future, Cass, a humanoid physicist from Earth, travels to an orbital station in the vicinity of the star Mimosa, and begins a series of experiments to test the extremities of the fictitious Sarumpaet rules – a set of fundamental equations in "Quantum Graph Theory", which holds that physical existence is a manifestation of complex constructions of mathematical graphs. However, the experiments unexpectedly create a bubble of something more stable than ordinary vacuum, dubbed "novo-vacuum", that expands outward at half the speed of light as ordinary vacuum collapses to this new state at the border, hinting at more general laws beyond the Sarumpaet rules. The local population is forced to flee to ever more distant star systems to escape the steadily approaching border, but since the expansion never slows, it is just a matter of time before the novo-vacuum encompasses any given region within the Local Group.

As undeveloped mentally as highschoolers are, they have years more development more than middleschoolers

Middleschoolers are suddenly blasted with hormones, and are basically accelerating at breakneck speed. Everyone's body is changing wildly, you're thinking and feeling new things every day, and it's all a total mindfuck.

By highschool, the hypernovelty has worn off. Yes, they're still developing and figuring things out, but it's not quite as much of the surreal existential body-horror that middleschool is.
"red flag" = no deal. If "being a woman" meant you can't get a deal, there wouldn't be any women who get funded.

That women-founded startups receive very little funding overall is also not surprising: there are very few of them (startups being defined narrowly: a company focused on hypergrowth and using VC). What do you expect, women founding x% of startups but getting x*10% of funding?

> The company is confident that this strategic approach to software and hardware development will be the basis for lifetime revenues as well as additional contributions.

I think they're pretty blunt as to "why." What they seem to be hazy on is the "how."
From the article:

> SSMI (Supra-SupraMaximal Inspiration), as the medical profession’s predilection for abbreviations has it, boils down to a simple breathing exercise. First, exhale completely, then inhale a deep breath. Wait 10 seconds, then—without exhaling—inhale a little more. Wait another five seconds, then top up the breath again. Finally, exhale. Generally, you will find that your singultus is gone.

> ...the SSMI technique is just a more sophisticated take on the old folk remedy that poses that the cure for hiccups is simply to hold your breath.
I mean humans can steroids that would save them from asteroids.
I never understand why people think rust is harder to learn than C. To be able to actually shell out a 100K non trivial C code base, you have to either reinvent or learn all the “patterns” laid out in languages like rust plus more.

You can not say you can write a bubble sort in C and you know C, and that’s indeed relatively easy. But you can not actually use it anywhere.

Again a good C programmer will be a better rust programmer if he wants to. But sometime the luxury of just work with people with the same technical calibers is a sufficient reason to stay.

Being a GenXer, my friends and I have regular contact outside of social media because we already had those habits ingrained in us before the current crop of social media platforms ever existed. I can't imagine being a teenager today having to deal with everyone in high school being on the same social media platforms and dealing with the pressure to fit in. We had cliques for good reason.
Haha, nope, it never worked. Such issue started from the very first day. I was one of beta testers that got invitation from Google directly. I was super surprised that new created email address started to receive spams almost immediately. So I requested a blocking list to be implemented and was told something like "No, you don't need that, our spam filters are good enough...".

So be it.
I'm not writing off what you're saying (I agree that young men are suffering and less likely to admit as much) but you are equating mental illness and suicide. I think it's important to note that it is possible to be depressed and anxious without being suicidal.

It's quite possible that young men are less likely to be depressed but that those who are depressed are more likely to turn to suicide. If that were the case it would be a very important distinction to make.

This can happen if you've lost the data connection, perhaps? In my (UK) experience, Apple Maps is perfectly good at re-routing. Even if you haven't made a wrong turn, it'll sometimes suggest new routes anyway based on live traffic.
