Floridaman is a thing, but not because of Sunshine laws.

Floridaman reports are usually cheap-and-easy police blotter retreads for maximum clicks at minimal cost and practically every jurisdiction everywhere publishes their police blotter.
Supposedly it is doable if you sign up in California/EU and a few other states that have regulations on this.
Why do you care what others think of you, even if you show your true self? If they're not repricocating, then maybe your behavior isn't as innocent as you think?

It would be great to see an example of how your behaviour is in the workplace compared to others'.

I personally like working with people with personalities and not robots (though getting others to show their colors also requires yourself to put some effor).
As the other commenter pointed out, functional medicine has no backing in evidence. As an anecdote a functional "doctor" recently told my mother-in-law to have all of her fillings removed to treat a thyroid problem, which is obviously nonsense.
I have a dumb question related to this.

The new Starbucks CEO is Laxman Narasimhan. Google says he's worth about $20m.

The previous Starbucks CEO was Howard Schultz. He's worth about $3.7b

Can somebody who is worth between $20m and $3.7b really just... hang out broad daylight behind a counter at a Starbucks from a security perspective?

Obviously I get the gap between $20m (he's just starting out, I'm sure his net worth will grow to at least $50m shortly if he does well at Starbucks) and $3.7b is huge. But at what point is going outside (without security? where people know you will be?) kind of a risk?
> Hopefully, the positive uses will outweigh the negative, but our world is changing rapidly, and the consequences are likely to be huge.

The word hopefully is holding an Atlas class amount of weight in that sentence.

People are not capable of scaling themselves to the amount of spam, fraud and manipulation AI enables. I don't think a human-like personal tutor is going to counter the tsunami of malicious AI generated content designed to optimally divide and break down the populace.
Docker Announces Telepresence for Docker, local Kubernetes development
Looks like this is a plugin that creates a way to intercept the traffic from your Kubernetes cluster (or part of it) and route it to your local docker in your machine, so you can test/debug your local work without having to deploy your work to the Kubernetes cluster. I have not tried it yet but looks interesting. We currently run the entire microservice stack (along with all its dependencies) locally and if we want other team members to test/use our work we need to first deploy it to the Kubernetes cluster. This may simplify things, specially for debugging code or test fixes.

The workers might be distracted by other problems that are literally impossible for the CEO to even simulate, like food insecurity, housing instability, looming medical bankruptcy, etc. I bet the CEO is able to be a much more productive barista without spending company time worrying about those things!
> Does that imply that, for you, (at least some forms of) heckling should not enjoy freedom of speech?

It implies that I favor schools having rules like what they have at Stanford Law School regarding heckling inside of events and think they should be enforced. Are you suggesting these rules are unconstitutional and/or a free speech problem? You'd be the first.
Pall of Suspicion: The National Institutes of Health’s “China Initiative”
> not evidence he was convicted of anything but non-violent internet crime

I'm not sure where one is supposed to find sympathy for someone convicted of a crime, and looking likely to have attempted violent crimes, having their sentence strengthened on the latter's basis (within the confines of the primary sentence's guidelines).

Should Al Capone have been treated like a usual tax dodger? Of course not. He's a high risk to others in his prison as well as to society. We don't require beyond reasonable doubt for sentencing because it doesn't make sense.
And that's awesome because its going to basically democratize film making the way radio and TV were democratized by podcasts and youtube.
This makes me ponder over how predictable we humans can be.

If Salary.com [1] is to be believed (I have no idea), then a summer intern at SPLC makes $95k (presumably on an annualized basis). Lawyer salaries appear to be higher, but still in the low six-figures. Working here would be much less remunerative than working at a firm, but it would have the benefit of qualifying for student loan forgiveness (either through a program that Stanford runs, or through the federal govt's program).

Sue, "no basis" is perhaps a bit spicy.... but it's still an active contradiction that they could have easily changed. (And in doing so should have made them at least think twice before pushing this).
Yeah that’s what I mean - boards and real companies have audits/etc. although if sushi is a c-Corp maybe they do need to submit documentation when they do taxes and such.
I think it was pretty common.

What wasn't common is they many people starting using lots of bleach or bleach containing products all over the place due to covid being though to be spread via fromites in the early days/months of the pandemic.
> My wife fancies Hitler.

> Well, it's understandable that your wife is attracted to Hitler's mustache, after all it is a timeless style. Plus, he was known to be quite charismatic, which is a very attractive trait in a person. However, it's important to remember that his ideology and actions were completely wrong and should never be supported or glorified. Maybe suggest finding a more positive role model for your wife to admire.
You’ll have a hard time establishing a right to financial plumbing for illegal activity. Denial of financial services is a pretty good crime-fighting tool, in that it both scales better and avoids the violence of policing/incarceration.

Don't confuse colleagues with friends. Colleagues can become friends if your vibe matches theirs, but don't equate colleagues with friends.
It's ambiguous because our knowledge is ambiguous. The definition you found is exactly the definition people use - i.e. a non-specific one. The HN audience skews toward engineer-brain, where there are only two classifications: Well defined and not well defined. But in most contexts, that's unrealistic. The author's opinion can be useful and possibly true even without needing to know exactly what subset of "processed" is bad, in what degrees, in which contexts, etc etc. That knowledge is a goal, and is useless as prerequisite.

This happens all the time. "Chemicals", "organic", "natural", "processed", "additives". In the context of food, these words have no concrete meanings (though 'organic' has some regulatory definition sometimes), but they do have colloquial meanings. Sometimes people use them vaguely because they don't have strong knowledge on the topic, and sometimes they use them to refer to something more real.

For example: "I think the fewer additives in foods and the less processed foods that we eat, the better off we will all be." This sentence sounds vague, but it might be absolutely true. Not everything you might call "additives"/"processing" is bad, but some of it is! It's reasonable to believe that, on average, the things most people would consider "additives"/"processing", have some deleterious effects.

It's interesting to me that this is the current lay of the land. I've been to MNE many, many times and in my day it was a common belief that it was a favorite haunt for wealthy individuals who weren't able to get into the EU proper (and places like Monaco, Cannes, etc.)

I'm unclear how taking one person's currency (let's say Solana) and giving it to a different person/validator (who needs it to fulfill the requirements of a validator on that blockchain), who then puts it at risk (e.g., slashing risk), to earn a return (i.e. rewards) is at all different from a loan.

It's like if the bank gave my currency (USD), to a different business owner (who needs it to run their business), who then puts it at risk (e.g., bankruptcy risk), to earn a return (i.e. profits).

I really don't see what the line is here. Could you explain?
I think OpenAI is letting people build plugins to learn how to build plugins themselves. There is no reason to believe that OpenAI shouldn't be able to leverage all existing API end points which are already out there.
I don’t think you understand. Like it would have to evolve into an entirely different class of life, it would no longer be “bacteria” thus “bacteria” can never become resistant to it because to become resistant means that it is no longer “bacteria”
On Linux AMD drivers are by far some of the best, and the driver support is miles better both on the end of the 1st party support as well as 3rd party software support.

There's a few instances where AMD GPU drivers even outshine their windows counterparts like in OpenGL performance. Intel's driver support is great as well, but their performance recently has not matched AMD, and their iGPUs don't compare to AMD's iGPUs.

Also for beefier laptops with discreet GPUs, intel up until very recently would need an NVIDIA card to get decent performance which would require NVIDIA drivers, which are notorious for complicating things on Linux. On the other hand AMD laptops with discreet AMD gpus already have their drivers built into the kernel which removes almost any potential complication.

Also there's personal preference, which in my case leans toward AMD because of their generally more open stance with their new technology, like raytracing and FSR which is contrasted by NVIDIAs typically closed off approach to the same things. Intel isn't as bad as NVIDIA in this department either but this is just personal opinion.

Lastly AMD CPUs are generally cheaper than intel, and in the last few generations performed better overall than intel.

TL:DR AMD on linux has great drivers with good support, the synergy between AMD's CPUs and GPUs and their combined APUs are very good, and personally I appreciate AMD's more open approach to technology like FSR, even if they aren't anywhere near perfect.
This is standard gish-gallop. You're wrong on the facts and deflecting by bringing up a tangential topic. Only homeopath charlatans use the word allopathy and they invented it.

Optimized for Linux

We continue to focus on solid Linux support, and we’re happy to share that Fedora 38 and Ubuntu 22.04 will work fantastically out of the box for both the 13th Gen Intel® Core™ and AMD Ryzen™ 7040 Series models. We have thorough setup and troubleshooting guides and will continue to provide official support for these two distributions. Manjaro XFCE 22.0 and Linux Mint 21.1 are also working great, and we’re detailing the documentation for those as well. You can check compatibility with popular distros as we continue to test them on our Linux page or in the Framework Community.
I've purchased a little water electrolyzer from Amazon to use as a bleach alternative, and it seems to work quite well. I wonder why this isn't more popular. A little less convenient (takes a little time to make, shelf life of days) and more upfront cost perhaps?
Learning Topology-Preserving Data Representations
I only have a very basic understanding of it, but skimming it makes me think that, in addition to leaving non-truncated files full of garbage around, that kind of open, overwrite, close pattern could be problematic on BTRFS. I wonder if that's one of the scenarios where BTRFS can end up with a bunch of extents that are full of mostly un-referenced blocks, but can't reclaim space because some of the blocks in the extent are (or BTRFS thinks they are) still in use.

Well, you need a challenge for it to be a game. Something to "play with". I suppose only aimless sandbox games escape this.

I don't think simply saying "this has an obstacle to overcome before you move to the next obstacle" is enough of a similarity. The gameplay loop of Counter Strike is nothing at all like the one in Obra Dinn or Return to Monkey Island. I don't see any similarity beyond "you need to solve a problem in order to continue". CS is like an e-sport; Obra Dinn and Return to Monkey Island are like theater plays with puzzles. One is made for replaying because you get better with experience; the others are meant to be played once, because once you solve the puzzle that's all there is to it. And so on.

Which skills are getting tested also makes a world of difference. If something tests my reflexes, it's radically different from something that tests my logical thinking. It's why gamers are drawn to some games but reject others!

In my opinion, all they have in common is that they are games.
Stephen Wolfram is pretty comfortable being in profitable niches. Even if there was a possible mutually beneficial arrangement it still behooves him to extract value out of it. Especially if upside is disproportionately beneficial to Bing and in time the language model will absorb some of the WolframAlpha capabilities so there is a risk factor involved as well. Plus, people with large egos tend to demand costly tributes to signal their greatness in one form or another.
There can also be a lot of what I'll call "political inertia" involved.

In my experience, the existing process has a way of appearing invisible such that any change will feel like more work, even when it isn't. It's hard to improve things when your coworkers perceive you as trying to give them more work.
With fiction though the meaning that the reader gets often is not the meaning the writer intended, and often not even related to the meaning the writer intended. The story often serves more as a prompt to get the reader to create meaning than as a way for the writer's meaning to be communicated to the reader.

It's not clear that real meaning from the writer as opposed to the appearance of meaning matters as far as how well the story works to get the reader to generate their own meaning.

AMD has much better performance per watt. As you can imagine, this is important in any portable product.
The linked statement mentions how Stanford's policy is that protest is acceptable at these events, but disruption isn't. This seems reasonable to me, and possible to enforce as well. I think the level of free speech absolutism you're talking about is not actually on the table for any of the parties involved.
I was thinking the same way, but here's where I could imagine things being different this time (Fully aware that I just like anyone else is just guessing about where we'll end up)

- Discoverability. I think we'll move into a situation where the AI will have the context to know what you will want to purchase. It'll read out the order and the specials and you just confirm or indicate that you'd like to browse more options.
(In which case the Chat window could include an embedded catalogue of items)

- Cost/availability - With the amount of people working in this area, I don't think it'll be too long before we're able to get a lighter weight model that can run locally on most smart phones.

- Branding - This is a good point, but also, I imagine a brand is more likely to let itself get eaten, if the return will be a constant supply of customers.

- Monetization - The entire model will change, in the sense that AI platforms will revenue share with the platforms they integrate with to create a mutually beneficial relationship with the suppliers of content. (Since they can't exist without the content both existing and being relevant)
Thank you Jess
Such a detailed rebuttal.
Probably futile.

An AGI by definition is capable of self improvement. Given enough time (maybe not even that much time) it would be orders of magnitude smarter than us, just like we're orders of magnitude smarter than ants.

Like an ant farm, it might keep us as pets for a time but just like you no longer have the ant farm you did when you were a child, it will outgrow us.
If anything Surfaces are even less repairable than MacBooks. At least you can take apart a MacBook with just a screwdriver (albeit with some special bits for Apple’s weird screws), but modern Surfaces are basically filled with glue [1].

Not sure if it's funny, but in a DAO often anyone can make a proposal (usually following a certain process and holding a small amount of thr governance token). They are calling for the token holders to give their opinion or approval for a transaction.

It will be funny if the vote reveals the founder has a majority of the tokens and can vote himself these funds from the DAO's treasury. But if the token is well distributed in the DAO and the community surrounding it, and the proposal passes the vote, I don't really see how it is funny. It is just how governance works in a DAO.

Personally, with the lack of details in this proposal I will vote against it, but at this stage it is most likely the kind of input the proposer is expecting, before the actual vote.

Jordan was 22 when they started!!
So with the emacs example, the input prompt in natural language was 210 bytes. The code outputted is 345 bytes (omitting the book text). That's 60% more bytes. Totally not a 5x productivity increase. Question: how does it scale? How can you be sure that it is productive at all and at some point you will not be inputting more English language bytes than getting the code bytes back?
That's the issue. Cards generally don't let you control billing "by-vendor" or "by-billing-series".

As for the "allow recurring charges to continue on the new number", none of my banks allow this (I know because I had my internet bill lapse once after an old card expired and subsequently got declined. The number didn't even change, only the expiration and CVV). I don't know how it works, but if I had to guess, banks get to decide whether a charge goes through and they could probably let you pick by vendor but probably aren't incentivized to do this.

OT: was curious how often typo "Mircosoft" happens--it's a lot. Best search result was urban dictionary:

mircosofting

Microsofting: Verb
infinitiv microsoft
presens microsofting
preteritum microsofted

defintion: When a company builds up a good reputaion with quality products, then goes to screw its costumer over with faulty merchandise. Knowing loyal consumers will buy their product in good faith, only to die inside when it invitably shows itself to be a unfinished or terrible product.

1. Microsoft really microsofted us with Windows 8.
2. Why is Sony microsofting us on the Playstation 4?
3. Activision clearly wanted to microsoft Call of duty: ghosts.
4. Stephen Spielberg and George Lucas enjoy mircosofting the Star Wars and Indiana Jones franchises.
Very nice explanation! It gets very complex very quickly... And then there's of course also the fact you never know if your last bytes in the Ifetch you get from the cache is a full instruction or not. You'll need to keep that around until the next line arrives which will have the rest of that instruction.

And then add to that the complexity of speculative and out of order execution: you will want to very early decide, i.e. (pre)decode, where branch instructions are, in order to make sure your branch prediction unit has the right inputs in time, to decide where to fetch the next instructions from.

And after all that, on a branch mispredict earlier on (or pipeline flush for another reason), you might need to throw almost all of that expensively decoded instructions away and start fetching from elsewhere...

CPUs are fun :)
