Linkedin is another BU and their actions are not going to be coordinated with GH, so they may be determining what to do about profiles like his, and about ru.linkedin.com in general.

Or linkedin may simply not be important enough for the US government to care about. Nobody is going to hold them accountable for inconsistency, and they only really care about is actions towards achieving the effect they desire. It is all implemented by humans and not a computer problem. At some level of detail they'll stop caring because like everyone else employed in this country, they're too busy with more important things.

Your explanation makes sense, but imo the import syntax shouldn't even require (no pun intended) an explanation.

The bigger thing is, I'm subject to however the deps I use want to export things, so they use a mix of those. Maybe in some cases you have to use `require` even if you don't want to, I forget.
I've been using Counter for a few of my small sites for a number of months now and I find it is non-invasive and does a good job of providing basic analytics. Thanks for making this tool available for free!
Hard agree. Anything important needs someone on each product team, either doing it as their full time job or just aware and caring about it if it's not enough to be a full time job.

Same goes for DevOps, QA, UX design, product design, accessiblity etc. If there is no direct instantaneous collaboration while the thing is being built then all that's happening is you're slowing down your product teams while their only course of action is to provide lip service to the thing you want because nobody on the team is actually incentivized to care on top of all of the other shit they need to get done.

Yes but now you have 3 times as many accounts that need to be bailed out.

Instead of 3 people holding 1 account each at 1 bank with 750k, now I have 3 people holding 250k at 3 banks. Per bank it’s still 750k.
Well done. Nice idea. Cool that YC invests in open source developer tools.

My only concern would be the time old problem of another level of abstraction. If the user has a problem they need to see if it is their problem, your problem, or a nextjs peoblem.

But it might be worth it for Python enthusiasts to use there language. The single file frontend/backend looks very compelling too.
Everyone knew FDIC limited to $250k an account. They put more in anyway and got bailed TF out. It's a bailout of depositors who didn't hedge risk among multiple accounts. Make no mistake, it's a bailout. I'd be more OK with it if regular citizens didn't get shafted at every opportunity but the wealthy always get a pass.

Steal a $2 bag of chips, get a year in jail. Take a stupid risk on overfunding your account over FDIC insurance, the taxpayers have your back, whether they want to or not.

It's garbage.

The only gotcha I've had is to make sure you deactivate and reactivate the virtual environment after installing Jupyter (or iPython). Otherwise (depending on your shell) you might have the executable path to "jupyter" cached by your shell so "jupyter notebook" will be using different dependencies to what you think.

Even comparatively experienced programmers don't see to know this and it causes a lot of subtle programs.

Here's some details on how bash caches paths: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/5609/how-do-i-clear...
Somewhat similarly, I've noticed a major uptick in the last few years of email messages from places I do business with (including banks), that have no "unsubscribe" or "manage preferences" link at the bottom, instead usually having verbiage to the effect of "you shall receive these communications until we part ways" (which technically is in agreement with CAN SPAM, I think) where the content is entirely non-transactional. Not about something I did, not a periodic account statement, nothing like that. Just informational garbage like how to be aware of scams.

I'm totally fine with this sort of email upon opening an account, or if a policy changes, or maybe even annually. But I'm talking about a deluge of this crap, from all sorts of companies I otherwise enjoy doing business with.

I’ve been wondering lately how small one of the indoor inverter heads could be scaled down to. Specifically, whether it could approach the footprint of a ducted heating outlet (with most of it under the floor). It seems like it would be more efficient to run coolant lines to the heads rather than blowing all that air through ducts as well as making it easier to have separate temp zones in the house. Does anyone know what the physical limitations are?
Your original comment didn't talk about ethics or morals, but was talking about intelligence being its own great filter.

Having a Chief Diversity Officer to fix a lack of diversity in my mind is no different than having a Chief Culture Officer to fix a poor company culture. Those sorts of problems can only be solved as the collective sum of every individual employee's actions. For example, if a large team of male engineers are all saying no to equally talented female candidates, then you've just hired shitty people. A diversity figurehead isn't going to change the fact that your team doesn't like or respect women.
Ah yes. The true face of Microsoft's AI intentions.

OpenAI is indeed partially a subsidiary of Microsoft and is essentially Microsoft AI.

Anyone who believed that they were going to stick with their AI safety / ethics bullshit is beyond naïve since it is obvious that OpenAI is now driven by AI grifters pretending to care about 'ethics' when that was never the case.

It always has been about closed source AI, money, EEE and lies. Typical Microsoft.

By this logic, Facebook, Google et.al. dropping links to these news outlets would help these companies. Furthermore, they can already opt out of being crawled through their robots.txt file. But of course, this logic is total BS which is why they don't opt of being indexed.
I think some interesting stuff can happen using a generative AI to create content then using semantic parsers on the generated text to convert it into the structure of the story and visa versa.

Yeah my patience for Apple's native dev environment is down to nothing nowadays. The docs used to explain why not having a string length method is the right move, but an overwhelming amount of "wtf" from users got them to change it finally.

Perhaps so, but I’ve seen from the inside what people looking for their next promotion try to build when there isn’t the specter of the evil mad scientist label (why is it always a panopticon or an easily abused tool?) and it makes me grateful that there are people whose jobs are to think about frameworks for reasoning about what is and isn’t at least approximately ethically neutral.

Just gonna Google some stuff and read some articles and put important facts and sources here to try to answer the burning question I have: Why did they choose to realize that loss now?

> Last week, depositors started pulling out their money and to meet that demand, the bank had to sell its investment in bonds whose value had declined due to rising interest rates.

> SVB Bank had last week sold its $21-billion bond portfolio consisting of US Treasuries and mortgage-backed securities at a loss of $1.8 billion.

> Over 95 percent of these mortgage-backed securities were over 10 years in duration, with a weighted average yield of 1.56 per cent.

> The bank had invested heavily in Mortgage-backed securities and US Treasuries last year through deposit money to earn higher returns. The bank had seen a huge influx of deposits but struggled to find enough credit demand to deploy that money at desired yields.

> As per reports, SVB had over $80 billion worth of investments in mortgage-backed securities.

https://www.moneycontrol.com/news/business/mc-explains-what-...

> Investors and depositors tried to pull $42 billion from Silicon Valley Bank on Thursday in one of the biggest US bank runs in more than a decade, according to a Friday regulatory filing.

> At the close of business on March 9, the bank had a negative cash balance of $958 million, according to an order taking possession of the bank filed Friday by California’s bank regulator, the Department of Financial Protection and Innovation.

> The scale of attempted withdrawals was so large that the bank ran out of cash and ways to get it.

https://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:O_auqz...

> The run was sparked by a letter that Silicon Valley Bank Chief Executive Officer Greg Becker sent to shareholders Wednesday. The bank had suffered a $1.8 billion loss on the sale of US treasuries and mortgage-backed securities and outlined a plan to raise $2.25 billion of capital to shore up its finances.

> But the root of its demise goes back several years. Like many other banks, SVB ploughed billions into US government bonds during the era of near-zero interest rates.

> When interest rates rise, bond prices fall, so the jump in rates eroded the value of SVB’s bond portfolio. The portfolio was yielding an average 1.79% return last week, far below the 10-year Treasury yield of around 3.9%, Reuters reported.

Surely you can grant that some things that exist are exploitative. Your reasoning here amounts to exploitation not existing. Documenting something that exist (which is just documenting) can be exploitative.

> AI safety has two branches, AI ethics and AI alignment. Those two branches despise each other with intense passion.

I don’t think that’s really true. Rather, the faction that sees alignment as a subordinate concern within ethics hates the faction that sees ethics as a subordinate concern within alignment.

> The alignment branch (responsible for developing RLHF->ChatGPT) believes AI ethics is completely trivial, and distracts attention away from existential risks.

Not really; the alignment-priority branch has no problem recognizing (certain subsets of) the bias and other issues that are the more central focus of the ethics branch as real and significant, but they view alignment as solving them and view narrow centralized control as a mitigation (for both “alignment” and “ethics” types of issues) until it is solved. They also view progress on AI as a general priority, for a mix of commercial, ideological, and other [0] reasons, and their own progress on AI in particular as essential (because they view AI from others – either because potentially unaligned, or for other reasons – as a critical and potentially existential threat.)

> The ethics branch (responsible for all the media attention about racist AIs/bias etc) view alignment people as pie in the sky researchers whose results are irrelevant to society.

No, they view them as an enormous threat [EDIT: 3], because they are working in a way that not only insufficiently mitigates in basic approach because of a lack of priority, but also magnifies by its focus on closely concentrated control, the issues of paramount concern to the ethics-focused.

> It seems increasingly that the concerns from the ethics branch have not come to pass at all.

They have in fact come to pass in deployments of AI in all kinds of socially-significant roles. E.g, the facial recognition in the CBP One app newly mandated for asylum seekers doesn’t work well for dark-skinned faces (racial bias in facial image recognition is literally one of the earliest publicly recognized AI bias problems that motivated the AI ethics movement.) They’ve also manifested in systems deployed in welfare management [1], hiring [2], and all kinds of other areas.

That's one interpretation but many people are incapable of separating the two so they have a different definition of trust. For example, if one has blackmail on someone else and both parties know it, the one who knows the dirt may feel that they 'trust' the other because of the fear that they instill in the other.

E.g. I may say that I trust my bank with my money but, in fact, I have no shared values with them. I only trust them to the extent that I know that their executives are well off and they don't want to go to jail. I assume that they will do everything they can within the law to screw me over though, so my trust is limited.

The ones I'm seeing lately are legitimately neither marketing nor transactional. Instead they're teaching me how to avoid phishing scams and stuff (not asking me to buy anything, but asking me to do things). I feel like the rule ought to be "offer an unsubscribe link unless it's transactional" but instead it's "offer an unsubscribe link if it's marketing".

> No, WhatsApp - in the hands of Zuckerberg - can never be better when it comes to the things which matter for those who choose Signal for its privacy-preserving traits.

It already is better for the 2B+ people that still use WhatsApp over something that is demonstrably worse, hence why little to almost no-one bothered to switch to Signal in the first place.

Given that you still need a phone number to use Signal, your privacy is out of the window since it sends that phone number to a third party (Twilio).

At this point, you might as well use WhatsApp. Signal is a worse version of WhatsApp.

I would say comparing GoAccess and counter.dev is a little bit like comparing apples and oranges. GoAccess analyses log files, that is a more robust approach I would say. I wonder how GoAccess can know unique Unique Visitors, guess that is directly mapped to the IP address which should be fairly accurate. An advantage with GoAccess as a website owner is that you can see traffic coming in from users using things like uBlock origin which is pretty widespread actually.

With counter.dev you have some metrics that you do not have with GoAccess like for example device type, the country of the users and some other minor things. But the biggest advantage is that it is easier to integrate. There are a lot of people with something like a Wordpress site for their restaurant that email me asking how to add counter.dev's tracking script into their site. Many people don't have access to their log files and I think it would be impractical for them to literally compile their analytics tool.

So if you are happy with GoAccess and have it set up you don't need to change.

But if you want to try counter.dev you get your tracking script after just registering with a username and a password. Then put the tracking script in your site and that's it.

My source is "The Architecture of Microprocessors", which has a very detailed chapter on the internals of the 68000. Each micro-instruction consists of a 17-bit sequencing field and a 68-bit action field (85 bits in total). These are stored in two separate sections of the microprogram ROM (what other sources call the "microcode" and the "nanocode"). The sequencing field specifies the next microcode address based on various branch conditions, while the action field controls the various parts of the CPU.

I've seen descriptions like yours saying that the microcode dispatches to the nanocode, but I can't figure out how to make both descriptions consistent. "The Architecture of Microprocessors" is extremely detailed, describing the action of each field at the bit level, while other sources are more hand-waving, so I'm more inclined to believe it. But I haven't looked at the 68000 closely, so I could be wrong.

How bank runs were historically handled in the US is that the depositors lost all of their money. Banks runs are a recurring problem that have a history going back hundreds of years. That's changing now though, the SVB depositors will be made whole by the government in order to avoid a wider banking crisis and what that means for everyone else is TBD but it looks like some form of insurance that's better than $250k.
