Buy crypto in China, sell it abroad. At least that was one approach. Note if you do it fairly quickly it doesn't matter what the value of the crypto is, just the liquidity.

Another way is 'business' investments in other SE Asian countries, that then get liquidated and moved further abroad. China does a lot of business with S. Korea for example. If you have an export company, and China exports a lot, you can hold a portion of the foreign earnings abroad and just keep them there.

In most of Germany urban areas and metropolitan cities are just a 30-45min train ride away. At the normal ticket pricing you will pay 32 euros for the roundtrip. Now you pay 49 for the whole month.

Oh, I remember installing my Diamond Monster 2 video card as a kid, with high expectations of this thing called 3dfx and the Voodoo chip built in.

The first game that I launched was Need for Speed 2 SE, who supported 3dfx, and oh boy o boy, the difference was night and day, it blew my mind at the time. The textures, shadows, look and feel overall was the best thing that I ever seen. It also has exclusive features for 3dfx like bugs splatters on the screen in some parts.

Bahn afaik isn't allowed to sell you tickets when the start and destination are within a regional operator, and my regional operator (to get to work) doesn't have a web shop.

The bus drivers are comically confused when I try to buy "einen Viererkahrte zu Aachen, drei Stück" so that I don't have to deal with it every other office day (this I can pay with a convenient 50€ bill and lasts about a month, give or take). Then I still have to stamp them per trip and will be last in line for a seat, but at least I don't have to bother the driver most days.
A very naive tracing GC is not more complex either, and is absolutely in the ballpark of “college kids”.
Let's not forget that ChatGPT can lie: just because it says something doesn't make it true.

It's more realistic to assume that any data a company is able to access will get gobbled up sooner or later because there is no real penalty for ignoring robots.txt or licenses at their scale: even if someone were to notice an infraction and has enough money to sue them for years, they can afford it and brush it off as the cost of doing business (and if it's not ChatGPT, then another model, the cat's out of the bag now).

A robots.txt gives as much protection as a "please do not hack me" text file against a ransonware.

In principle, SAT scores enable people like me, who were very very good at such tests, to break into elite schools.

In fact, test prep works well enough to enable a shockingly high percentage of legacies and donor brats in elite schools.

Ending SAT use in admissions might enable a more balanced approach to admissions, but it does not broaden access to elite schools. They could increase class sizes, or they could get rid of legacies and donor admissions.
Here in Hamburg the local Transit district (HVV = Hamburger Verkehrs Verbund for 3.67 Million people) is also offering a version where the employer pays a share of the 49 Euros. Thus the monthly cost for a Germany-wide regional transport ticket (local trains, regional trains, bus, ferries, ...) then is reduced to 34,50 Euro and the owner needs only to pay for months when it is actually needed.
No. For the most part, success in this field requires having access to capital or debt, which would provide a platform for loan to own folks
> What's the difference between a monthly subscription and a yearly subscription that you can cancel monthly? Either way you pay for however many months you choose to have it? It sounds like the difference is that you need to fork out the cash for a whole year up front

The difference is in the process mostly. They make it a process that requires a physical address, you need to return the plastic card etc. It's something that you can absolutely do if you live there, but it's something that is inconvenient if you do a two month summer vacation. You can pay month by month, so the upfront cash is not the issue.
Thats because they need to put their export earning somewhere and US govt debt is the safest place to put it.

The "0.3-3.8% regret" statistic comes from this summary of the literature, which does not have sources before 2017: https://whatweknow.inequality.cornell.edu/topics/lgbt-equali...

The claim that this is current despite the massive uptick in children identifying as trans (again, a 30x increase), needs a current citation.
'Disguising self-interest as virtue'

Indeed, and this seems like a prime example.

I'm a fan of a level playing-field, and measuring, rather than judging, ability.

But lets face it the putative victim described by the author is actually up against the kids of quite privileged, or dedicated families, who will be hiring private tutors, sending their kids to evening cram schools, or doing the 'tiger-mom' thing.

Some flexibility might give a leg-up to talented kids who haven't had one before (although there is that danger that it could go woke).
Ha, I knew I wouldn't be the only person adding ChatGPT to emacs (https://github.com/CarlQLange/chatgpt-arcana.el).

I am beginning to think that ChatGPT is the singularity. I built that emacs package, but really, ChatGPT built it using me as a conduit - there isn't a single function in there that ChatGPT didn't write the majority of (although the poor code quality is all my own).

It could go further. Using something like langchain, I'm pretty sure you could get ChatGPT to instruct itself in building a python library or something:

User request: build a python library to print out ascii charts in the terminal

ChatGPT2ChatGPT: What are the steps I need to take to build a python library to print out charts?

For step in steps:
ChatGPT2ChatGPT: Carry out this instruction

And so forth. I'm sure some human interaction is required, particularly given the context limit. But even so.

Another thought I had was that using ChatGPT to help me build things is so convenient that I am unlikely to pick technology that it doesn't know about. Perhaps this kind of thing will cause a chilling effect in the creation of new tech. Who knows. Truly exciting times.
With two of these in parallel in a board, could it be possible to simulate a Pentium MMX?

No consent is needed if a noncompliant patient poses great harm to others.

The least harm to all is to force their treatment without their informed consent.

It's either that or keep paying for their total isolation until they die. Not treating a treatable fatal illness would be malpractice. If they wanted to kill themselves by some other means later, then that's a mental healthcare matter later.
The point of the singularity is that at that point it's not us making the further technological advances, it's AIs, so the rate and type of advance is both opaque to us, and beyond our control. That's why there's a horizon we can't see beyond. An AI helping us write chunks of code still has us in the loop.

My wife had a daily 45km rail+2km bus trip to work which was 200€ per month.

That's massive savings for many people who choose not to drive with cars. Her colleagues drive to work with cars for 2 km trips and ask her whether she does not own a car (we do).

Taking the train is
a) cheaper
b) more relaxed (can read)
c) better for the environment
d) it's even faster in her case

The €49 ticket could give public transportation a massive boost - worst case is, no additional people use trains and buses but people who can't afford cars or use public transport for enviromental reasons save quite some money.
You can still try that, but that's not the intention. The target audience are basically commuters. I had a colleague a couple years ago that went around 100km total both ways to work. He briefly considered switching to train but balked at the price of about 200 per month. This despite the fact that gas cost him more, his car commute was longer and he was paying for a parking spot. I guess the logic was he already paid for the car, so he better use it. But at 50 per month, he'd ditch the sunken cost that is the car in a heartbeat.

I can't see an end in sight for the capabilities of these systems anymore. I've lost a LOT of sleep regarding this over the last week as I work on a prototype to demo to my org's leadership. In our sector (B2B consulting), this sort of technology is essentially "adapt or die". Additionally, I see this technology as a way to level the playing field for a brief moment. F500 will still be there, but I think the constituents are going to change dramatically.

ChatGPT is a warning shot for me. The technology had been there for a while, but this arrangement is particularly compelling (concerning). Even if the current iteration doesn't achieve "criticality", the next one almost certainly will.

I am seeing 2 paths for a developer: embrace these tools or become the next generation of luddite. I've got no clue if this is going to eliminate jobs, but I would certainly prefer to be on the vendor-side of this software than the receiving end. The roles inside of a typical org chart are going to change very quickly - That much is certain to me.
This is certainly much less painful than buying real estate in London, New Zealand, San Francisco, etc!
Standardized tests remain the only criteria totally in the control of the student. You can study for them and objectively do better, become a better applicant. Everthing else is either circumstantial or based in the opinion of others, mostly highschool teachers. If i had to rely on my highschool teachers' opinion of me i would not have ever gone to university let alone have won scholarships. Standardized testing allowed me to overcome thier base opinions.

Want to be a lawyer but are not sure about law school and do
ot know any lawyers? Look to the LSAT. Do well and where you went to university/highschool doesnt matter. Do really well and scholarships will appear. That is the freedom of good standardized testing.
> comments that affect the behaviour of the code itself...

I agree, but those are extremely rare in my experience. SQL optimiser hints and HDL synthesis hints only affect performance.

What examples are there of comments affecting actual behaviour such that tools must parse them for the code to even run?

I can't think of any.
Berlin currently has a 29 € ticket which is much more interesting if you don't travel the rest of Germany often. Hopefully it gets extended beyond April.
Standardized tests are designed to be as non-gameable as possible. They're definitely less gameable than the other admissions criteria still used in elite colleges: admissions essays, playing obscure sports, fancy extracurricular experiences, etc. Most studies find SAT prep confers very limited benefits to the average person.

Having an essay essentially written for you by an expensive consultant with contacts in admissions departments is undetectable and widely practiced. But when it comes to standardized tests, many wealthy families get so desperate for good scores for their kids that they engage in criminal conspiracy (recall the Varsity Blues scandal in 2019).

It's extremely hard for me to see how, when you remove the least gameable aspect of admissions, that it gives the rich less of an advantage. I'm almost certain it gives them more of an advantage instead.
Use a BIN/CUE format for these games.
Any other type? I think there are a few unstated and unproven assumptions there...
When has it been abused? What's your evidence for this claim?
> Looking at how well current GPTs are able to write calls to external APIs

Are you talking about the behavior of ChatGPT constantly inventing API parameters that would be kind of useful to solve the task at hand, but which unfortunately aren't part of the external API?

I would say that understanding that there's a difference between your own code, where you have full freedom to design your contracts, and "code of others" where you have to adhere to some already-defined contract, would be an absolute minimum bar that must be passed in order to call someone (or something) proficient at writing calls to external APIs.
When I book a train ticket, the regional trains are already included. My local public transport system (HVV) has online & smart phone ticketing for many many years now.

A regional operator where the ticket can't be bought online or via a smartphone should be really really rare in Germany by now. Which operator is it, which has no online payment option?
> Does it? How do railways work in Austria? In the UK companies bid to get monopolies on routes. So you don't really have competition anyway.

There are routes on which there is competition (eg: Vienna to Salzburg) where two rail companies operate. For the most part the competition is quite limited, something which I hope will change.

> Is that a good thing?

Yes. Because public transit is primarily for the people who live there and pay taxes. That it's also something that tourists can use is great, but you don't need to subsidize it for them.
No it's not: the point of the singularity is that you can't meaningfully speculate past it.

We're not there yet, but it's reasonable to think we might've crossed an event horizon.

He's pretty explicit. He thinks he and his care more than other distributions.

I'm sure his observations have nothing to do with only supporting two related SoCs vs thousands of disparate chipsets, and the ability to repro from there.

It's a terrible comment.
That's not quite in the interest of the car manufacturers that public transportation is cheaper than cars which is one of the reasons this took so long.
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35027935

But as mentioned, boundedness is the important property, hard real time systems are not really fast in any way or shape (e.g. for a modern chip to calculate a missile trajectory you really barely need any time, but it not replying in the necessary time window which may be like half a sec, because GC/JIT compiler/OS interrupt is a no-go).
I can ride all the regional trains in my region in Italy for 35 euros/month (full price, before reductions for eligible categories)

Italy is more complicated than Germany railroad wise, but I would also argue that beyond the region you live in, slow regional trains are much less useful.

In Rome I pay 10 euros/month (the subscription is paid annually though) to use every public transport including buses, subway and trains that start and stop in a train stations inside Rome area, even if they are directed to or come from a different city/region/country.

By showing the card I can also park for free in several selected parking lots around the city.

Many people don't know about the advantages public transport provides, but they are real.
> […] higher prices for tourists.

The goal of these initiatives is to get people to choose public transport over cars. That includes making it attractive for tourists (foreign and domestic). A single ticket which allows you to just use any local public transport without having to figure out pricing and tickets beyond the basic rules of this ticket is pretty attractive.

The €9 ticket was a steal (I've used it myself as a tourist). This version is a bit on the expensive side, and not even that attractive for tourists (although certainly convenient).

I ran several RaQ3s at an ISP, and had a Qube 3 for a while (https://www.flickr.com/photos/ruicarmo/16490971544/in/album-...). I loved the things and did several backports of RHEL stuff to run on the Intel variants.

When they were discontinued, I was allowed to take some of them home. Had to give them up, though, because I lacked the room to keep the boxes around, and at the time I also lacked the time to maintain software or investigate hardware upgrades.

The saddest thing for me is that today I would love to have kept the enclosures and PSUs (I’d likely have stuffed them full of Raspberry Pi compute modules, or Celeron mini PC motherboards, and hooked up an MCU to the display and buttons…)

But some of them were online and running at my former employer until 2018 or so, which is nothing short of amazing.

you have competition in the bidding process.

but no, there are no monopolies on all routes in austria or germany. on main routes like vienna to munich or vienna to prague multiple train companies offer services and compete for travellers.
Why not? You (as the seller) don't care if someone buys a ticket they're not eligible to use and has to come back for another one, or never uses it, or whatever. You'd be checking eligibility at point of use anyway.
