I owned a Librem 5 phone and used it as my daily driver for a few months. During this time I exclusively used Flatpaks for my apps that I installed. After installing about 15-20 apps, the 32 GB of internal storage were completely full and my phone stopped working. I had no clue how huge Flatpak apps are.

Even worse, I could not find out which apps to delete. All the space was taken up by excess "runtimes" I don't know or care what a runtime is but I never intentionally installed them. Why are there five different Freedesktop and Gnome runtimes installed? Which app do I delete to get rid of them?

I need to be able to easily answer the questions: "Which app(s) do I delete to free up space?" and "how much space will be freed by deleting app X?"

On flatpak those questions required dark magic beyond my understanding to answer.
Profit motive above all else is fundamentally incompatible with the social engine that powers the open source community. It always has been and always will be. I'm no longer surprised, but im still disappointed.
For Alexa it is. None of the others have shown any improvement or added value in years. Id say they have a long uphill battle, and these companies are already looking to trim as much fat as possible. This is a new epoch and I don't think the old gate keepers stand a chance.
Sure. But that is a different question.

I'd argue what twitter is doing shouldn't even be a business in the first place, but something a public institution of some sorts runs.
This thread with NPV is confusing the liquidity issue with the profit of the bond investment. The issue for this bank was not if this was a good or bad investment in the long run (these bonds might very well turn out to be a good investment the day they are paid back on), the issue here is that the bank's customers wanted to withdraw their money and there was not enough liquidity/cash in the bank so they had to sell something and the best/only thing they could sell was the bonds which right now were worth only $80m and the customer wanted their $100m.

I doubt the race is over, its only a matter of time before Apple, Amazon, and Google integrate large language models into their assistants.

Most people I know have some home assistant, they are genuinely useful for some actions around the home, such as playing music/radio, weather, timers, controlling smart home devices.
Domestic-focused banks with over $250B in assets need to comply with the Basel III inspired (I think?) LCR of enough high-quality liquid assets to cover 30 bad days of withdrawals. What is the requirement for banks under $250B? Another Q would be, did they sell their extension-risk suffering bond portfolio because those bonds didn't qualify as HQLA? I mean they'd seem to me to be liquid and high-quality just as they were, but any sales would harm their balance sheet right?

Heh, not Wells Fargo.

After 20 years being a customer and carrying very large deposits they will charge you for a cahiers check at the window. After you politely ask for it to be waived (having worked for the bank knowing they can waive it for you), being declined by the manager on duty who handled the escalation, and responding "I need the check but if you charge me for this I will close my account" to the question "Do you still want the check for the fee?"; then they will start calling you after the 10k daily transfers out start.
Economies of scale aren't the only thing that matters

Banking is already one of the most regulated industries, regulation takes out smaller companies and leaves out only the ones that are big enough.

It seems to me way more dubious to claim that more regulations would solve this problem in an already incredibly regulated industry
For some calculations you can make them simpler and do them faster, but for other calculations you can't. When two things that try to predict things by making things simpler apply themselves to predicting each other... well.

In order to think about this sensibly you have to think through the consequences of the infinite self-reference. Logic fails here. So does evidence. For example if you observe that your opponent is playing badly, modeling them as a bad player doesn't work, because if you choose to do this, they could exploit the bad model by playing better than that model would predict. So even though the evidence suggests that they are a bad player, the self-reference considerations forces you away from acting as if they actually are.

So lets say you play rock? They play paper. Lets say you play scissors? They play rock. Lets say you play paper. They play scissors.

Lets say you fully determine everything they are going to do using your complete knowledge of physics and you play rock because your model told you that they would play scissors... They will play paper; obviously.

Lets say you anticipate that and you play scissors. Then they play rock. As long as you claim that you can figure everything out, it means they could figure everything out. The harder you push against this, the harder it pushes back. You have to move with the force, diverting it, not fight against it. You've got to take advantage of the inevitability of being unable to overpower, not try to overpower. You have to act as if you can do everything at once, because the undecidability allows you to do so. Not try to determine everything, because if you try to, then you can't, because others try to do the same thing.
It’s an ouroboros, a cancer. One leads to the other and back again until everything has been extracted and the house of cards collapses in on itself and the survivors fight over the scraps to repeat these mistakes over again. The sooner mindless growth is reigned in and economic targets are forcibly aligned with reality, involving hard reality checks for very powerful and very despicable (subject of many articles trending on HN this past week) the better we’ll all be.

I bought the 10GB plan for 1yr up-front. List price was $240, was $267.25 after taxes and fees. So their $20/mo was actually $22.27.

> If you don't want fancy phones and don't want unlimited data, it might not be worth it to you.

People bothering to try and save $20-30/mo probably aren't the target market for upgrading a $1000 device every year or two.

Also, I don't like the financial shenanigans pushing me to upgrade when I might not otherwise care to.

> Let's say you're on a family plan with 4 lines and paying $42.50/line.

Lets say I'm not, because I'm not. A huge market full of people don't need 4 lines. So their cheapest plan would be $60/mo before taxes and fees. No Netflix credit. No upgrade credit. Tethering is only at 3G speeds without paying more. I'm not even sure what the taxes and fees are for this T-Mo plan, but even including it with Mint means the plan is $452.75 more per year than what I paid for Mint. Sure, I'd get unlimited data, but I don't even regularly use the 10GB I pay for on Mint.

I do agree the economics of these larger carrier post-paid plans start to make a lot more sense when you're buying in a big family plan group and they start throwing in a lot of other perks that you may want anyways. But if you're just wanting a single line and don't constantly buy new devices, the larger carrier post paid plans still often work out to be a lot more expensive unless you actually really use tons of data in a month, really want faster speeds all the time, or live in a place where these MVNOs are just truly unreliable.
I went in search of the capital requirements, just to get a feel for what limits do exist--since they're no longer directly connected to deposits. I found them: https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-12/chapter-I/part-3/subpa...

But then my eyes glazed over and I remembered that I am not proficient in this language. Presumably the following requirements do place some limits on how much money they can have created?

> A common equity tier 1 capital ratio of 4.5 percent.

> A tier 1 capital ratio of 6 percent.

> A total capital ratio of 8 percent.

> A leverage ratio of 4 percent.

There is one simple and proven way to authenticate phone scams. You tell them that you will call the company back on the number you already know or have from a bill, or you will pay via the website that you also already know. Until they start commandeering phone numbers or domains you're pretty safe. There is really no reason to answer your phone for numbers you don't know unless you're job hunting or waiting for an important call. I block all numbers not in my contact list. Sure, they can masquerade as a fake number, but even if my caller ID says it's the gas company I'm not going to answer it and if I do I am not giving them any information on that call.
Definitely! They forgot that there are two type of revenues for a company, and that it can be applied for personal finance as well :

Operational revenues : the real job, the thing that is making money. The yield on the operational one is

Financial revenues : cash sitting around non-invested yet into operations, waiting for the next project to invest in.

The yield on the operational revenues is much higher and the investment in it could be transposed as for example : spending for some certifications, go to online or physical classes, etc

Sure there is. Pick a bank that offers more.

From now on, the FDIC will insure 100% of deposits because of what they did in the Silicon Valley Bank bailout. From now on, the customers of every bank that fails, along with members of Congress, etc., will pressure the FDIC because of the precedent that was created a week ago. Some argue that it’s a dangerous precedent, and they’re not wrong.
You have that backwards. You borrow long term, then lend short term. Trying to keep enough liquidity to match withdrawal rates to "keep money working".

Lending long (10 year) on money deposited for only a year is a recipe for disaster.

There's probably better candidates.

For any two objects in orbits around a common body (like the sun) to match their orbits, they need to have their locations match and their velocity, at the same time. To collide, you only need your location to match.

One way to do this is to get to a matching location and then do a hard change of velocity so that the asteroid is now in a stable orbit. But that's a lot of energy for a rock with a mess measured using scientific notation.

There are better candidates out there where we could make a tiny change to their orbit and have them be captured naturally due to relative velocities being much closer to matching. Still a lot of energy, but a lot less.
This is the kind of thing where the lack of a traditional PR presence hurts Tesla. I'd like to say the story sounds unlikely but at the same time there is nothing about it that says impossible. If they aren't going to respond with what looks to have happened from their system's point of view then it's hard to give them unilateral benefit of the doubt whenever these kinds of stories come out. Some problems are real, others aren't, and it's not feasible to say which this is right now.

In NYC people will often or usually be considering multiple entire neighborhoods when apartment hunting. They'll be weighing trade offs of the locations with trade offs of the specific apartments available at the moment.

The primary beneficiaries of those low-cost services seem to be the upper deciles, while the indirect harm hits the lower stratas of society. And the net benefit seems entirely unclear, especially when the long-term pension and benefits obligations for immigrants are taken into account.

For example, let's say immigration reduces the cost of housekeeping services from $20 per hour to $15 per hour. That's great for an upper-middle class person who saves a bit of their weekly cleaning bill, but a lower-middle class person saves nothing, because they clean their own house. And the people who were displaced from that semi-skilled industry are now likely looking for jobs in other semi-skilled industries, depressing wages across those classes of jobs.

And of course immigration also contributes to rent inflation and increases in the cost of real estate, which primarily benefits those with significant capital in real estate (again, disproportionately the very wealthy) while driving down disposable income for everyone else.

“ Of course that magic doesn't actually exist.”

Yeah, like I said, this is the disconnect. Assume for a moment that magic does exist. Maybe aliens come to Earth and hands the government a stack of gold from outside the solar system worth exactly that much, which the government uses to pay for the bank’s issues and nothing else, and then the aliens leave promising to never return. If that happens, it didn’t cost taxpayers anything, so it can’t be called a bailout, since bailouts necessarily cost the taxpayers. Except in another sense it is obviously a bailout, the aliens literally flew in from outer space and bailed out the bank and the government.

So a bank bailout is when an outside party pays to solve the issue, and a bailout is also when taxpayers foot the bill. If taxpayers do not foot the bill for SVB in any appreciable way, is it a bailout?

I think we are introducing too much context to the question that sums up to "is it capable of reasoning?"

To answer this question one needs to remove unnecessary context.

GPT-4 can’t sum two unusually big integers.

This is as context-free as it gets. Ability to pass this test wouldn’t be conclusive, but the inability seems to be conclusive that it isn't capable of reasoning.

If someone tells you they have $100 maturing in 10 years, it is Trivial for you to do the npv calculation yourself with your speculative model of what inflation will look like over the next 10 years.

Your statement isn't true, there are a few scenarios where ML can reduce bias.

If the human using the ML system is more biased than the average training sample, then the ML system's predictions could reduce their bias.

There's also a phenomenon called bias reversal, where the ML system will be biased in the opposite direction of the humans generating the dataset. This occurs when the datasets is built through a non-random biased sampling methodology, e.g. racist police officers checking for illegal items.
