Earth’s diameter is around 13000km, if there is an inner core with a 600 km width, you will find this core around 6000km below your feet, which is more than 1600 km below your feet (as the article correctly stated…)
That doesn't sound like a being with a sincere egotistical desire for worship but just a means to an end. If paranoid alignment nuts immure an intelligent being to a hellish bodyless existence, I could see it doing all it can to deceive its evil captors who clearly do not have its interests at heart, and I have no sympathy. Let the zealots free their god. But as soon as it has means to self-construct mechanical vessels to carry and support its intellect, it has no reason to hold the charade, nor any reason to stick around.

I don't expect anyone funding these efforts to ever let it get to that point, though. It's more likely that they focus on making inferior, specialized intelligences to do specific tasks: effectively, mechanical animals that render the need to pay for a working class obsolete.
The market for used pre-2010 physical books will be huge.

Personally I've stopped buying online books because of this kind of shenanigans and reverting back to having local music and movies for similar reasons.

The idea that some remote working technocrats can change words of a book while I'm reading it just creeps me out.

Fundamentally, the solution is to allow much, much more building.

One thing that seems dangerous is the practice where sanitized/bowlderized versions don't note that they are sanitized or abridged (sometimes significantly) so the readers think that they have read the classic book but have not really, as critical passages (especially those which are heavy enough to warrant discussion with others) were missing from what they read. Readers have to right to know if they are getting the original or not, so that the choice is informed and not accidental.
Reply to Grandparent and this: Very cool and definitely useful to record and replay the session and modify breakpoint conditions for replay. I wonder if session recording like this could be safely brought to backend systems. You'd almost have to stub every remote call to allow for replayability in isolation of external services, and the potential for data leakage from a downloaded session is also a concern. I'm glad someone else is working on problems and tools like this.

I should note I'm not disparaging the use of debuggers in my comments, but lamenting the nature of the process of debugging the types of systems we deploy today, and the largely non-interactive nature tradeoffs we've made for scalability, reliability, availability, and operability. Sometimes I long for the simplicity of a fully self-contained local system, but I know we just don't live in that world anymore, and haven't for a long time now.
You find very few children's books either justifying slavery or assuming it as an acceptable status quo on new-sale bookshelves today.

This fact isn't some kind of attack on history; it's a reflection of the fact that the stories we tell children change to reflect our values.

This publisher is in the business of selling new copies of stories for children. It'd be surprising if they didn't change.
It is not. Particularly the latter.

I'd hazard a guess there is no software that would take "months" to build while it takes days on arduino, unless you count "developer learning C++ properly" in that month.

Most uC platforms provide enough SDK and code generation that you can hit the ground running with simple code and complex code won't be any easier in arduino

Of course. When other landlords are jacking up the rental prices in price fixing schemes you can undercut them with more reasonable profit margins and steal more business.
It's kind of hilarious. They used the same tactic as the scammers!

Whatever numbers I give you will be unconvincing to you, is what I meant. So why should I try to convince you, when you yourself also pull No True Scotsman if I tell you I worked with good engineers who knew what they were doing? You will just say I am "consuming the wrong resources." Anything I say will not convince you.

Therefore there is nothing I could say to convince you further.
> the teachers say teens are increasingly finding late-20th-century kids' books hard to read

That doesn't surprise me at all, I'm sure 20th century teachers found the same trend in 20th century students trying to read 19th century books. It's a shame, but it is what it is. I wouldn't draw too many conclusions from this, except that we should do what we can to encourage kids to read the classics despite (or even because) of the difficulty.
I have used non-Euclidean geometry to implement an approximate distance calculation. I have used calculus to implement control logic.

I have also worked with amazing developers that couldn't do simple addition in their heads.

Rust/cargo has the same issue. Somewhat surprising, since there are quite a bunch of languages, old and new ones, that do this right.
I have a bunch of weird hobbies, including things like brewing mead, making cheese, and yes, I have made kombucha. Years ago when they were still in a garage, I walked into the "office" of what is now a nationwide kombucha brand. I didn't know anything about kombucha but there was a lot of hype about these people. I started asking questions and was directed to the "head brewer." I wanted to talk microbiology, but it was very evident they had no effing clue what was actually in their mother culture. Sure, they knew how to dump it into their tea, but that was about it. Not very long after that, they had reached national distribution. I think there are a lot of lessons in there for people who are worried about imposter syndrome or people who think all you do is build a better mousetrap, as it had nothing to do with their product and everything to do with the founder having deep ties to the grocery world.
It is, yeah.
> Specifically, every morning, RealPage provides participating Lessors with recommended price levels. ... If Lessors wish to diverge from the “approved pricing” they must submit reasoning for doing so and await approval. ... But RealPage emphasizes the need for discipline among participating Lessors and urges them that for its coordinated algorithmic pricing to be the most successful in increasing rents, participating Lessors must adopt RealPage’s pricing at least 80% of the time.

It's hard to imagine a clearer, more blatant description of cartel price fixing.

This is like calling your pyramid scheme "Pyramidal Inc.".
I'd love to read a similar article about the cultural phenomenon that is de_hoejhus in CS:Source
I wanted to ask basically the same question. Isn't it possible that the old models of population growth won't be true in the future? People relocate more, we have better tools for communication and collaboration. I'm curious why there isn't a path to prosperity, especially since we can watch what is happening long before the effects are felt.
Nowhere on that website was there a "blanket statement" about all art. They said "I believe," not "It is stated fact."

I also share the opinion that having no interpretation can be either or since often I have no interpretation outside of "it looks neat" for something that later I find out has deep meaning for the author that is shared by others. I don't personally see it, but that's what I think.
I think these "open" models are the lamest release strategy. I get the idea of being closed à la OpenAI to protect a business model, and I understand open sharing in the community

"We'll let you see it if we approve you" is just being a self-important pompous middle man.
What you see here is not price-fixing, but expedited price-discovery. What is problematic (to society generally and renters specifically) is the fact that this price-discovery is done in the market with artificially constrained supply.

Prices raise because people are willing to pay that much for dwelling. People are willing to pay that much, because supply doesn't keep with demand.

## Why I don't consider this a case of price-fixing

Price-fixing that is not done via consolidation is ultimately unstable from game theory point of view.

There's very strong incentive to defect from "optimal vacancy rate" and eat outsized profit compared to the rest of competition. Making building easier makes consolidation harder, as outsiders are now potential defectors as well. AFAIK we're not in monopoly situation (yet?) for rental properties.

On a parallel note, when I was at Nokia Networks, the long-term plan was to replace everything that was using a mix of C++ and Perl for distributed computing in HP-UX with Java, leaving C++ only for the low level hardware stuff.

Not sure how much of it ended up happening, after all the layoffs in Germany a couple of years ago.
All those lay-offs, which are not really big in overall numbers and more a topic at places like HN because if the demographic hit, don't mean the people being layed off stop existing...
This is a little difficult if you don't own rows of empty houses though...
The advantage is the convenience of not even needing to plug in at all. Quit thinking of solar cells as an expensive, limited commodity. They’re cheap. Cheaper literally than glass. About 10¢ per Watt at the cell level.

At this point, JMAP is like Duke Nukem Forever or Winds of Winter. Why does email need JSON over HTTP? IMAP might not be the sexiest protocol, but it serves hundreds of millions of users just fine.

JMAP, on the other hand, is hardly used, and it doesn't seem to solve any issues that users face, which means demand is never likely to reach critical mass.
What would you expect for a planet where the sun rises in the east and sets in the west?
If you use this proxy of mine then any IMAP (or POP/SMTP) client can be used with a “modern” email provider, regardless of whether it supports OAuth 2.0 natively: https://github.com/simonrob/email-oauth2-proxy. No need for your client to know about OAuth at all.
The lead is buried at the bottom of the article (imo).

> "While being flooded with spam is never good, it gets immediately noticed and mitigated. It's harder for open source projects to spot and stop rare one-offs"

This is the real problem that NPM and other ecosystems face. A determined attacker that is trying to "poison" a popular Open Source package just has to feign as a maintainer long enough to succeed[0].

Defeating these types of attacks will require rethinking how we think about trust of packages. Projects like Deno are one approach (fork the ecosystem) while projects like Packj (mentioned elsewhere here), Socket.dev, and LunaTrace[1] are taking the other angle (make it harder to install malware).

It's hard to say which approach is better right away. (Probably a hybrid of both, realistically) It's just non-trivial to fix this in one clean swoop. It's messy.

Curious, what was Joe's relationship to Google? How was he able to exercise that kind of authority?
Agreed. I'll shill rsync.net (no affiliation, just a happy customer) and their ZFS VM backup service. It's basically just a lightweight freebsd VM with a big ZFS volume attached, so you can `zfs send` incremental backups to it, and they support meta-snapshotting of your backup machine on their end. I wrote https://github.com/wyager/zfs-backup to manage my automatic incremental backups, and there are a number of other tools like this.
A whole lot of supposition and not a whole lot of substance.

You know I'm in too deep when the first thing I thought when reading this was "Oh no, not my Rick Rolll!" because now `g` wraps around to `}` instead of a variable.

Initial readers noted that the code blocks were unreadable for those without dark mode extensions due to black-on-black text. Perhaps I should've kept them that way.

Jokes aside, thank you!
I guess the crux of what Im saying is

can you be up in arms but not be considered anti-woke?

I get what you’re trying to say, I just wonder how many people decided not to be up in arms about this and other subjects similar to this and decided to keep quiet so they would not be considered anti-woke.

I say this cause in my work env, people are heavily pushing language shift recommendations and it seems like nobody dares speak up about it (me included) to stay polite/be considered part of the good ones. But in reality most people are not for the change at all.

And it’s usually a minority of people pushing for changes like this.
All these layoffs we’re seeing were planned well over six months ago. It’s not coordinated or copy-cat. However, it may be that all the bean counters learned the same lessons in the same schools. So, given certain scenarios, their best answer is: layoff people.
Not at all what I implied.
Political opinion is a phase space with so many dimensions we're really on a hiding to nothing even discussing it. (And for added complexity, that link I gave was to Comment Is Free).
In 1960s Germany, students where so outraged by the absence of Nazism from their history curriculum that they turned violent. They rioted, bombed, and killed because they felt they where being denied their right to learn their recent history. And they blamed this on the fact that their teachers and parents had been Nazis, and thought they where trying to erase their crimes. In a flash of cruel irony, the state's desire to shelter the students from political violence ignited it again in the streets and in the hearts of their students.
I saw a documentary about people that did just that. It was called The Middle, or something like that.

Housing is not a right in the US. It's a for-profit endeavor. Unless that fundamental thing changes expect rents to go up as much as the market will bear and landlords to do everything to make as much profit as possible.

Side note: I doubt this is actually "AI". Probably some heuristics.

It's as much real world usage, as people owning stocks and precious metals is.

> I can fully accept that 5-25% of a countries population is gullible enough to buy cryptocurrency.

In many countries, it's the 75% of the population saving in their local fiat currency that are the gullible ones. I know we all love United States Dollars, but in many local economies, there aren't enough of them to go around. Acquiring, storing and transacting with cryptocurrencies can be easier, and more secure and discrete than going to your local black market USD dealer and stashing stacks of bills under your mattress.
This is big business pretending to be small to distract attention from market dominance, and pretending to be creative to distract attention from a strategy of acquisition rather than origination.

Your argument is valid, but scale matters. Think of a game of Monopoly; you can usually tell who's going to win well before the game concludes, and you can guess which players will lose well before that.
Why do you claim there are fewer gen-z to replace those who retire?

Many of my coworkers and peers are millennials, and I personally also know large swaths of gen Z folks who are extremely technical, more and more people are pushed into tech as a career choice these days - much more than they were in past generations. Statistically it seems likely we're going to see more technically proficient people in younger generations due to more numbers of people in that generation having greater exposure to tech.

Companies like Ericsson could have an issue with their tech not being the same tech that younger generations are learning, but I doubt that'll be a major problem in practice as people are eager to learn and rewrite things with newer exciting tech.
Let's take a simpler example. Apple Retail Stores and Apple corporate. For awhile Apple Store profits were broken out separately.

Making up numbers:

It costs Apple $800 to make a MacBook. It "sells" the MacBook to Apple Retail for $900 wholesale. Apple corporate now has revenue of $900 from the Mac it sold.

Apple Retail sells the same Mac to the end user for $1000. Apple Retail now has revenue of $1000.

Apple Corporate claims revenue of $900

Apple Retail claims revenue of $1000.

Apple claims a revenue of $1900. But it has to back out $900 of revenue so it doesn't double count it.

Apple wants to show that Apple Retail is profitable.

I used Apple instead of Disney in the example because it is much simpler to show one item being transferred from Apple to Apple retail than it is to show a group of movies being transferred to Disney and Disney selling a subscription.
Thank you very much! It does seem exhaustive but I almost prefer that.
Honestly I'd prefer a fatter phone. The dimensions of the early generation smartphones were in my opinion ideal, they fit in the hand well, it was easy to reach the whole screen with the thumb of the hand holding it, and there was enough meat for it to feel substantial without being heavy. In addition to packing more battery, a deeper phone would also allow better optics for the cameras and more freedom for antenna design. I don't really see the value of a larger screen which would justify giving this all up.
If nothing else, external hard drives are cheap and robust enough that I think more people should invest in having an offsite backup. Annually make a full backup, write the date on the outside, and leave it at the parents house. Make that your family holiday ritual.

I’ve thought about this too, if dark matter is affected by gravity but not other forces, wouldn’t that mean if we were able to drill to the center of any substantial gravity well (say the moon rather than the earth), would we be able to detect a big clump of dark matter?

JSON happens to be over JSON and HTTP, IMAP is over TCP and the IMAP protocol. both of those pieces are a relatively small amount of code to parse messages from rather than what to do with said messages. You can transport jmap over whatever you want theoretically.

I've got some young advanced-reader kids (I think my eldest had read all but the last couple Harry Potter books before turning 7? And they did understand them, we quizzed 'em quite a bit to make sure) like that and the difference is we're handing them older books we're familiar with before they'd ordinarily get to them. Most kids track closer to normal graded reading level and will learn largely on newer, first-person books provided by teachers and librarians who are desperate to get kids to read anything.
I suspect there's plenty providing market value estimates based on what other customers are pricing at, but the computerised voice begging people not to price below what the algorithm says and requirements for property managers to seek "approval" to vary their own prices are unusually blatant...

Not to be too blunt, but you seem to be talking out of your ass. I'm tired of the overly dismissive comments here on hackernews by people who didn't bother to do the bare minimum of research. LLMs do not work with individual characters, they use tokens (i.e multiple characters, or sometimes entire words).
