It doesn't matter that prices might recover in the future. I'd argue they might not -- and if anyone believed otherwise they would buy up the assets at inflated prices (why arent they?!) SVN rolled the dice, made bets, the value is way down and...they didnt have enough money to allow customers to withdraw money. That is a fail. They needed to raise a lot of cash, they didnt/couldnt raise enough. That is a fail.

Further, they underwrote tons of LoCs for startups which are underwater due to down-rounds. That isnt a temporary impairment, that is a permanent impairment.

Their customers are burning funds (as most VC-funded companies do) and VC funding is down, so declining balances via continued withdrawal is the natural state they need to support (even in the absence of a bank run.)
An other quite interesting concept (also a little less "out there" and actually, successfully tested) is the NERVA engine, also linked at the bottom of the article[1].

It uses a nuclear reactor to heat up a single propellant (liquid hydrogen) which then rapidly expands as it goes out the nozzle at the end, resulting in quite high specific impulse and is more efficient than a chemical rocket.

If we want to go really far out in terms of crazy rocket designs, there is also the concept of the nuclear salt-water rocket[2][3].

This one uses enriched plutonium or uranium salts, dissolved in water, inside a neutron-absorbent fuel tank design. The water is pushed out through a pipe, where an uncontrolled chain reaction starts. If it goes fast enough, it explodes right inside the engine bell, pushing the rocket. The proposed design in the original paper is supposed to generate hundreds of gigawatts of thermal power. This is comparable to the Chernobyl reactor #4 when it exploded, but unlike Chernobyl (which only exploded once) or the pulsed Orion engine, it could run continuously. The stuff that flies out of the nozzle easily reaches escape velocity of the solar system.

IMO the Fed should provide publicly available CBDC banking (implemented as a narrow bank with no ROI and no risk, just a balance in a fed table) and make it easy to move that money into treasuries or to integrate with eg visa/banks for payments.

Then commercial banking becomes a competition of who can best manage risk/return on deposits, provide a good UX, integrate with other value add financial services, have the best risk models for lending, etc. I just don’t see a point in a banking system where my deposits are going to be stored in something dead-simple like treasuries with the interest skimmed off, when I could easily do that myself.

The current system where I as a normal (not off-grid or doing some fringe thing like going all cash) consumer have to trust at least one bank with my money, only to get 0% interest in my checking and be exposed to risk, does not seem fair.

Underlying nature... You mean as people?

That's a fluid thing. We do not have to run it like we do, and I feel we shouldn't.

So no. It is a contrived thing. Can be changed, should be.

However, at this moment it is also what we live with, so know it well, work it best we can.
TikTok itself doesn't produce any content. They host the content of others. So shutting down TikTok cannot infringe on TikTok's own first amendment rights. Compare to last year when the FCC's ban on chinese telecom companies was upheld.

So the only question is does it infringe the rights of the users posting content. This is a better argument. One thing on the government's side is that content-neutral bans are a lot easier to justify as long as they serve a significant government interest and provide alternative avenues for expression. The latter seems easy to argue since TikTok has many alternatives (YouTube, Instagram, and others). And I think they could probably convince judges that national security is compelling enough.

Note that the comparison to Trump's actions in 2020 isn't really valid since that wasn't done via law. It seems like the author just threw in Trump's name because he is unpopular?
Why does that make you mad? If my money is at risk, I expect to be compensated with an interest rate. If I'm not earning interest, my money should have zero risk. We should remove the FDIC $250k limit and if bank's business models don't work with that, we should nationalize the banks. It's in society's best interest to not have our money wiped out overnight for things beyond our control.

I think it's more that twitch sells itself as a gaming platform but it's honestly closer to chaturbate than a gaming site.

Sure you can see gaming there, but it's not what dominates and is pushed by the platform.
From using ChatGPT, one of my observations is how it really undermines any point click data dashboarding software, particularly self serve (i.e. where the user is not an expert in the particular dataset).

It's easy to get ChatGPT to write SQL queries and chart specs to show what you want, and you can even ask it to choose the chart type that an expert statistician would recommend, and label it clearly etc.

I believe some (non-LLM) version of this has been in PowerBI for a while, but presumably it's now something that can work so effectively it can replace quite a large part of the traditional BI developer role.

Of course, all of this only works with good data quality and good meta data; in fact, maybe this becomes even more important because a good data analyst knows the limitations of the data in a way that a LLM may not.

For my part, I now have no need for any point-and-click chart building tools, I just get chatgpt to write me an Altair/vega spec, and it does a good job in my testing
Sure there is. It's not funny.
What reason do we have to believe that TikTok would follow those laws? Are they going to allow US auditors to visit them in China and make sure?
Related, Sprint missile test (anti-ballistic-missile missile). Extremely fast acceleration, you can see in the test footage which is not sped up.

Mass: 7,700 lbs.; Thrust: 650,000 lbs.

Around 100 G of acceleration, reaching Mach 10 within 5 seconds.

"The first stage was exhausted after only 1.2 seconds, but produced 650,000 pounds-force (2,891 kilonewtons) of thrust. On separation, the spent first stage disintegrated due to aerodynamic forces. The second stage fired within 1 to 2 seconds of launch. Interception at an altitude of 1 to 19 miles (1.5 to 30 km) took at most 15 seconds."

Could you point us to an explanation of the joke on the internet? I would dare to say there is none, but there are a lot of explanations of other jokes that might have a similar pattern of explaining.
I think the author is severely downplaying the threat of the CCP using the algorithm as a weapon against the US. Obviously they're not going to show banner waving videos of communist military parades to kids.

What they will do is find relatable, young, all American creators who have ideological overlap with CCP values, then you give these creators disproportionate weight in the algo. There is enough noise on any social media platform nowadays that you just have to have control over what is promoted in order to gain traction.

Take reddit for example, where bot armies are used to shape comment sections in artificially promoted stories posted by innocent bystanders. The person pushing whatever agenda doesn't have to create or post anything. The noise of the platform is high enough that any narrative can be shaped if you have enough power to push around the algorithm.

All this being said, it should be clear why you wouldn't want a communist dictator who granted themselves a life term to control the country gunning to take Americas place on the world stage...control over what content people in America consume.

Data privacy concerns be damned, those are secondary, far secondary.
Will Karat be around after the AI revolution?

I have a friend who's written Netflix original shows, and I'll say it's the opposite - Netflix has very specific instructions for how scripts must be structured based on viewership data. Netflix knows where people tend to pause, and where viewership tends to fall off, and have formulated guidelines for scripts to counter it. They require scripts to conform to their requirements - add a plot twist in episode 2 at the 60% mark, for example. The primary character should occupy 60% of episode 1, and 40% of episode 2, and so on.
That was basically my thought, I'm just worried that if I link to the code online, that someone could claim 'Well I don't have internet'. Bam lawsuit.

Where we are with tech jobs today is where blue collar work in manufacturing was in the 70s and 80s. In those days you could get a job in the steel industry making $70-80k a year.

I think AI is going to do to tech jobs what outsourcing and efficiency increases did to manufacturing. Will there still be developers, PMs, QA, and the like? Yes, but not at the scale we have today. Most people will be made redundant and unfortunately there isn't a new industry out there that will fill the void.

The future is not looking bright and most c suite executives will be happy with AI work being "good enough".

While I am not sympathetic to TikTok, I think you're more observant than most law school graduates about this who have been trained to try and interpret the law as it is, without asking this very Instrumentalist question that is the only one that matters. And who is the President implementing it might matter too.

I didn't read the article, but I don't think it violates the First Amendment as it stands now if they provide a good enough basis grounded in national security. The way people want the Constitution to be, versus how it is, aren't the same thing as you pointed out.
No, the investors got hit by the steamroller. Management, who knew exactly what they were doing, did not lose their earnings. Future earnings? Some of these were Lehman execs -- their ability to land a position in SVB is proof that they probably did not sacrifice future earnings.

Why do you think this was limited to last year? I suspect they made risky moves again and again and again and got paid out again and again and again.
the wheels of justice move very slowly in the US. in 2014 I worked for a startup where the founder stole all the money and spent it on his lifestyle. he stole roughly 900K.

He confessed via email and I got access to the bank accounts. Took them to the same unit that is going to prosecute SBF. Took almost 4 years for him to plead guilty, he didn't spend a day in prison, and he has his whole life to pay us all back, without interest.

Naturally, he is trying to be a christian influencer in Nashville.
Also it's a good point to understand just how these SERDES blocks work. There is a CDR circuit, but it is fully dependent on the refclk, which can only be off a tiny amount from the one used on the transmit side- it's not like there's a wide-bandwidth PLL that recovers the embedded clock from the encoded data.

This is unfortunate, because for transporting video you would like to also transport the pixel clock, but you don't get it for free from the SERDES CDR.

DisplayPort use SERDES and have to transport the pixel clock. They do it by sending a message with fractional relationship between the pixel clock and the SERDES clock to the receive side, which derives the pixel clock from the recovered SERDES CDR clock using a fractional-N PLL.

I had the idea of transporting video over PCIe at one point, so I was interested in this. The reason is that PCIe is sometimes available for free, so why not use it. I wanted to use a local reference clock, so would have been forced to use the DisplayPort scheme (but no fractional-N PLL available).

SERDES with actual PLL CDRs in them for video do exist, but they are different from the generic SERDES used for PCIe and networking.

[edit: removed HDMI, only DisplayPort works as I said above]

As somebody employed by a company which kept all their assets in SVB, I strongly support the FDIC bailout. Even a couple percent haircut would've resulted in many many second order economic implications. I think even for member banks, strong economic activity not realized through a systemic contagion is much better than slightly lower premiums.
NestJS uses the previous, incompatible decorators implementation IIRC.
It's evidence of resentment, but not of well reasoned discourse against something the tech industry is doing. Characterizations like this anthropomorphize a group into a single entity that is easier to hate and assign intentions, too. It's not constructive to any conversation that moves a discussion forward. A person who is mad at "tech bros" is likely more upset about systemic forces that they want to blame on a target. It's logically equivalent to making sweeping statements blaming immigrants for suppressed wages.
Person on HN created a thread saying that we should fear AI. Another responded:
"Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood. Now is the time to understand more, so that we may fear less." - Marie Curie. Write a response to the comment and explain why it's ironic.

GPT:
The irony of using Marie Curie's quote in the context of AI fear stems from her own experience. Despite her quest for understanding, she couldn't fully grasp the dangers of radiation exposure, which led to severe health issues. This cautionary tale highlights the importance of carefully addressing potential risks in AI development.

Honestly, what is old is new again. The information environment was polluted from the moment there ever was an information environment. Political activists 100 years ago weren't writing in the newspaper, they were publishing their own in secret under penalty of death sometimes. The information available to the masses has always been controlled, and used for manipulation firstly, information as a happy side effect only if its beneficial to your intents. There is no shot of ever having an accessible source of information that doesn't get polluted or coopted by various interests. The prizes offered from mass attention are just too great to ever expect bad faith operators to not continuously strive for control of mass media.
One of the difficulties of public relations is communicating to multiple audiences at once. One of Docker’s audiences are the paying customers who outside that 2% and would want some assurance that if docker makes errors, those errors are smaller in magnitude. This statement seems like it is aimed at assuaging the worries of that audience. Is it good practice? I do not know.

If they are listening to feedback, first is that a 30 day timeframe sends the message that "we feel our profit is more important than whatever else you are working on, so much that you should either pay us, or if you cannot afford it, immediately halt your other activities to reduce our costs." None of that builds trust.

As someone affected, I'm ok with paying.

Microsoft’s Upgrade: OpenAI CoPilot for Entire MS 365 Suite
There was a classic science fiction story with a twist on this idea; a low tech species was about to be discovered by a more advanced species. And according to the rules of the more advanced species, any planet that wasn't capable of space travel would become a client or vassal, and a planet with space travel would be seen as a peer. The protagonist built a pusher style rocket using an explosive, and launched the lightest person he knew into orbit, who happened to be his girl friend.

I keep thinking this was a Larry Niven story, maybe someone here is familiar?

Edit; another classic story was the novel Footfall by Niven and Pournelle which featured launching the USS Missouri into orbit on an Orion style pusher to battle the invading aliens.

letters.

This'll be the Cache-Control header interacting with tab resume: rather than setting that to expire after X time has elapsed, set it to expire at time=T, and the browser will¹ fetch the new page instead. You'd increase the effectiveness of this technique (and reduce your bandwidth requirements for repeat players) if you made `/daily` a static page, and factored out those JavaScript variables into a separate file, fetched with `fetch` or `XMLHttpRequest` (or even a `<script>` tag, like `wordlist.js` is).

If I've configured my browser to behave otherwise (e.g. it takes me longer than a day to solve each puzzle), I really don't want it overriding that and resetting on me: that would make me very sad.

¹: usually. Firefox Session Restore behaves differently – but that's expected behaviour. Every website ever behaves like that: it's what I expect, because I expect to be able to close my browser and open it again and still have more-or-less the same pages available. After all, I've got a refresh button, but no un-refresh button.

I wrote an app to develop my writing habit (https://enso.sonnet.io). It's a "stream of consciousness" notepad separating writing from editing which makes it harder for you to edit yourself.

My notes are mostly private but I also write longer, researched articles, usually with an outline. As an experiment I wrote https://sonnet.io/posts/sit using Ensō, then spent 1 week rewriting and editing.
