And they'd be engineered to influence behaviour. The targets would start acting irrationally - ignoring the danger of massively destructive climate changes. Or pretending that a pandemic doesn't exist.

For example.
How much do you get paid as a fraction of what unionized tech workers in the US get paid?
And the 2 weeks ;)

It's a known stereotype of Dutch GP's among expats in The Netherlands: no matter what limb(s) are missing, no matter how long you've been bleeding: the first time you go you go see the GP you'll get "take paracetamol and let me know if you still have issues in 2 weeks". lol
> Thank god I never left any money in there or it would have been stolen.

That's not true. They banned my account when I was below 18 because it's forbidden to have an account for minors, but there was absolutely no problem retrieving the $1000+ that I had.

Even if the account is banned they let you link a bank account and withdraw.
It's available as "Passwords" in the system settings. I think they added it recently to align it with iOS and iPadOS, where there is no mention of it being Keychain at all.
Maybe the commenter does not share the opinion that climate change should be addressed by reducing emissions.

I definitely understand your sentiment. It is hard to restrain oneself of a good for some cause to see other people using it.

In this case it might be productive to adapt a new view that better suits reality and increases congruence between ideas about the world and imperics.
The basic prerogative of reproduction is predicated on the basic need for safe and secure territory.

The wealthiest oligarchs of the boomer generation have done everything they can to ensure the consequent generations are unable to attain that one entirely reasonable primal need.

Women's rights have had an affect on birth rates, yes, but I'd rather take away the oligarch's right to own all the single family homes than my girlfriend's right to decide what to do with her life.
Mean individual auto insurance cost in the UK is around £500. You're getting a deal. Americans still pay more, though. If I had to guess why, it would be that Americans drive more miles, and it's easier and cheaper to drive while inexperienced in the US.
When reading the piece my first thought was "forum", closely followed by your reaction - that sounds... pretty good?

The historians, archeologists and linguists might well question it, but the feeling is still there, see the recent comments made by an European Union high official comparing the "garden" of Europe to the "jungle" of what's just outside of it.
> does not share the opinion that climate change should be addressed by reducing emissions.

The opinion that it should be addressed or not? Because there's no feasible route to addressing it that doesn't involve reducing fossil emissions.
We should just eliminate H1bs and expand the green card program together with eliminating per country quotas. Relying on a union to protect workers with precarious visas is really just trying to address the symptom rather than the cause.
> it seems the bar for what qualifies for an emergency gets lower and lower

Maybe you're right about that, I don't know... But even if it was not the case, we'd still expect emergencies to occur more frequently today than in the past, and even more frequently again in the future.

You know, climate change and inconsiderate usage of finite resources within a finite volume and always-increasing entropy and all. The link is direct.
Serious question but what do you use Windows for? I don't know alot of people that use Windows anymore so just wondering is it a work requirement?

Weak Labeling Tool for Named Entity Recognition Using ChatGPT
The sooner we can get lab grown beef the better. I don't care if it's more expensive or even if it isn't as efficient in terms of energy input as growing, raising, and slaughtering actual cows. It'd still come with tons of benefits like reducing antibiotic use, taking up less land, causing less suffering, eliminating illnesses, etc.
Hello Hacker News community! We are excited to introduce a simple Named Entity Recognition (NER) tool that uses the ChatGPT language model provided by OpenAI. Our tool showcases that ChatGPT is a strong candidate for NER models and, in some cases, can outperform heuristic rule-based models.

Our team Ainbr is solving product aggregation problem and glad to share this project because we already found this can help to solve our problem.

Have fun!
In my experience, ladies that are too young seem to just be there for a free meal, and hoping to find a rich sugar daddy to buy luxury goods for her.

Older ladies are frequently downright desperate, but yes, generally only interested in something long-term.
The other thing people could do is stop buying software that only works on Windows.

Usually, home users do not NEED whatever software only works on Windows. Usually, the example is some AAA game. No one needs a game; it's a luxury. So if some stupid game is "forcing" you to stay on Windows, that's your own fault and I have zero sympathy.
>What other things on the technology tree did we skip over and might we discover out in some insect, bird or fish?

Or beyond that, what fundamental physics principles have we somehow missed? Perhaps faster-than-light travel is actually really simple, and we somehow just haven't discovered it yet. Meanwhile, some much more primitive civilization elsewhere has, and is going to invade us soon with their FTL spaceships armed with... cannons equivalent to our Medieval weapons. They'll be in for a big surprise when we shoot back with guided missiles.
And with this, finally certain people can stop saying Safari is the new IE6 because it is lagging badly.

Because that title is reserved for a certain behemoth that enjoys the same popularity as IE6 once had and which IMO is probably more dangerous to the free web than IE6 was when EU reacted.
Gene Roddenberry was attending channeling circles from extraterrestrials, called The Nine and asking questions about different alien races and landings, even mentioning other channeling sources. (He appears in a book called The Only Planet of Choice.) I'm sure that type of thinking inspired some of his vision for Star Trek, and there are many other groups of channellers that communicate with Extraterrestrials... which seems like a much more elegant and realistic version than sending computers or AI to visit other planets.
> PayPal has restricted our business account because we have invoiced a license key containing the random letter sequence “ALEP”.

This makes me wonder: what's the best way to generate "safe" license keys? Binary feels like an obvious solution (binary keys surely get through virtually all blacklists?) but at the same time: binary license keys would be very long and very atypical, so maybe fraud detection systems mark them as suspicious anyway.

Maybe just generate random alphanum license keys and run them through some open source blacklists yourself? I doubt "ALEP" is in those lists though.

This should be handled in the URI scheme. Files have file:// and web has http:// or https://

There’s also a UI difference. I don’t use Slack, but files tend to be shared using a file picker/ drag & drop whereas websites are shared as URLs.
APFS does have snapshots and at least the local TM backups heavily use them (it takes a fraction of a second to perform a local TM backup). TM backups to disk also seem to be organised as snapshots and have become much much faster in the recent macOS versions, so I don't think it does only copy changed blocks (but I can't be sure).

What I would love for APFS to have thought is block-level deduplication. Seems like an obvious fit for an SSD-optimized COW system anyway, surprised they haven't implemented it.
Some people consider that a feature of crypto, not a bug. They want a currency that isn’t manipulated by governments.

Of course they fail to realize that the manipulation just gets shifted to the core developers.
Isn't it more the other way around here?

The CFTC want to prosecute Binance for violating restrictions on allowing US persons to buy and sell derivatives, but they are aware that this is somewhat weak sauce, because the people buying and selling are all sophisticated institutional players, and Binance themselves are only very dubiously subject to US jurisdiction.

So they make it into a case about 'funding terrorism' based on a casual remark from a chat log.
Okay, listening to the podcast. I understand your point much better now, that seems like a very interesting episode, thank you for that. Like if there are some unpleasant truths that if you don't believe to be true would make your life much easier.

But the questionnaire on the streets - to be fair, if I were to answer "no" there, it doesn't mean I would be lying to myself, I might only be lying to the interviewer, for obvious reasons.
> that doesn't involve reducing fossil emissions.

You can fly an airplane on non-fossil fuels.

As the original commenter also said: He'd rather focus on earning money than saving a bit. Maybe that opinion translates to the climate debate?

Maybe he wants to produce large amounts of energy with limited externalities instead of saving a bit.

>> any currency has value because people believe it

There is no contradiction. Your rant is coming across like all currencies are the same, they are not.

People tend to believe the U.S. Govt more than say Venezuela (no offence).

Even amongst currencies, the USD is special due to the underlying tie to oil sales. See https://www.lynalden.com/what-is-money/ for a much better introduction than I could ever give.
Studying AND "living a little" at the same time isn't that hard with all the exchange programs EU universities provide. Traveling within Europe is also very cheap. It's mainly just an excuse for people who don't want children that much, which is now more common due to cultural changes as well.

Expensive housing on the other hand is a real problem. Requiring a long degree for nearly everything is also dumb.
You concede being a layman yet lay out a conclusion as though you are not. Was there any real point to your comment beyond taking a stab at 'zealous vegans'?
I just want to add that, as a massive fan (and part of Paul's mentoring class of 2023), this makes me even more of a fan of Paul.

I never had problems with alcohol, but I did have my set of issues with Mental Health and as someone who talks publicly about it, this really and I mean REALLY requires massive courage.

So yes, I'm incredibly proud of my mentor for publishing this.
Yes this would be my answer as well. The phenomenon OP is referring to is "hype" and it has existed for as long as money has existed. Specifically, once leverage (debt financing of investment) gets involved, you enter what we now call the "Minsky moment", after Hyman Minsky's financial instability hypothesis (FIH), specifically the third phase, what Minsky called the Ponzi phase, after famed scam artist Carlo Ponzi. The first recorded example of a Minsky moment is the so-called Tulip Mania of the 1630s.

ETA: OP specifically mentions "tech" - so the first appearance of consumer tech is in the 1920s (cars, radios, etc.), a decade which was, in fact, characterised by Ponzi-esque overleveraged speculative investing. In reality, this wasn't investing only in tech specifically, but a massive spike in consumer tech purchasing was one of the key signals for investors at the time. This ended with the now very famous Wall Street Crash of 1929 and the subsequent Great Depression.
Reductionism, emergence, and burden of proof – part I (2015)
Steam resisted any patching mechanism for updates for a long time. Even when they revamped the update system [0] they instead opted to split updates into separate files for their own pack format [1]. They seem to have relented though - I guess other developers were not as motivated to optimize their asset layout for Steam when Valve is the one paying for the bandwidth.

the point is it doesn't matter that you are right - all involved parties have to do their part. rich guys point at average Joes and vice versa, and both don't take action because "but the others".

> If there is any institution that should be under constant and heavy scrutiny at all times, it should be the Fed.

First, I want to say that I agree with you 100% here. I even think maybe the accountability mechanisms might not be designed correctly, although I don't know enough to be sure.

> half the people actually defend them

In their defence though (and notwithstanding what I said above), they're all incredibly intelligent and competent professionals who happen to be at the helm of the ship in uncertain times. :shrug:
I _think_ the color changing implementation could result in the dvd logo changing color when the window is resized. That may be fine of course but I'm just curious what you would do to avoid that, if it were required not to.
The average joe can think about all the unnecessary suffering caused by animal agriculture. Entities do not have empathy, but humans do.
Yes, I agree, but my point was that this partially sterilizing immunity was a "bonus" of a vaccine designed to mainly prevent hospitalization and death.

The main goal of vaccine manufacturers was never to make a vaccine that would stop the spread. And certainly not to stop the spread entirely, as in: if you're vaccinated there's 0 chance that you'll get the virus or spread it (this is simply not the case, despite what you quote).

As it turns out it DOES prevent spread, but it was never the main goal.

> being vaccinated continues to massively diminish the risk of catching COVID

Yes. I agree.
I being me, I settled for 7 minutes which even I think is a short interval but I think empty records were OK so I could just hit enter which would mean "still working on the last thing I wrote".
What a time to be alive where you have to worry about how you generate your license keys as to not be labeled a terrorist.
There's a third outcome between "fully public" and "fully private" that's actually worse, which is "known to blackmailers".

That is, who's collecting kompromat on UK ministers, and for what purpose, and in exchange for what? (It's the press, isn't it)

This is horrifyingly bad. I have yet to this day read anything good about paypal. They provide a “free” service with the option to rob the user of their money at any random moment. What other options are there out there that provide similar services? Are all modern banking services this bad at their core or is paypal by far the worst?
There has to be options that are at least partially run by sane humans.
I know several people who got stuck in an endless loop of Paypal processes and couldn't withdraw their money. It is a terrible service.
> Maybe the commenter does not share the opinion that climate change should be addressed by reducing emissions.

There really isn't any other way to address climate change than by reducing emissions.

Did you read the announcement:

> Why a separate classical app?

> Classical music often involves multiple musicians recording works that have been recorded many times before and are referred to by different names. For example, from the formal Beethoven’s Piano Sonata No. 14 to the popular byname of Moonlight Sonata, or in multiple languages, such as Mondschein Sonata in German. Such complexities mean that classical music fans have been ill-served by streaming platforms. Until now. A distinct app, included with an Apple Music subscription, gives these classical music lovers the editorial and catalog content they’ve been missing.

> Only a brand-new app — with specialized features and a beautiful interface designed for the genre — could remove the complexity and make classical music easily searchable, browsable, and accessible for beginners and experts alike.
Do you recommend Kiwi/SkyScanner for their customer support (changing tickets, etc...) or are those just names you sometimes use? I also fly a few times a year and at this point I just want excellent customer service and don't worry about saving a few bucks but haven't found a travel agent that meets my needs. Chase Ultimate Rewards just kind of meh. I do know the value of booking directly with the airline but sometimes the price difference truly is outrageous (double even).

I take your point, but this isn't a zero-sum game, as has been shown by the plummeting cost of solar energy. If enough countries move towards renewable enegy (and in the mid-term nuclear, agreed) it will become cheap enough that other will adopt it for purely economic reasons.
It may be backed by the US but there is no guarantee of it holding its value especially when the government has become extraordinarily reckless with monetary policy. While we’ve never experienced a serious crisis of confidence in the dollar and there are many who have predicted hyperinflation since the 70’s, I do not believe you can exponentially increase the supply of something and not see its value diminish. The pace and looseness of monetary easing over the last decade and especially the past few years cannot be overstated.
You just agreed with him by saying pushing updates to older OS versions.

If Safari was an app it wouldn’t matter what OS version you were on. Edge will run on windows 7, 8, 10, and 11 all from the same installer.
Hikikomori are severely isolated people who basically represent Japan's analogue to homelessness. These people leave their rooms seldom and their houses never.

Herbivore men and hikikomori are very much not the same. To say they are is tantamount to saying that incels are part of a wider "hoarder" movement, these groups might be affected by similar societal dynamics but they're not related at all
Red Hat was 26 years old in 2019, and then they were acquired by IBM.

But that’s only if you count the starting year as 1993; Red Hat the actual company seems to have been started in 1995, from what I read. In that case, they would have been 28 years old today.
It took years of litigations for my coworked to fetch his $30k from PayPal. The reason they banned was irrelevant.
the P must be for paypal, I am sure.
At what cost to others?

The climate morality debate is complicated because it's all statistical. "Drown Bangladesh and Florida" is obviously a wrong outcome, but there's no one individual wrong action that leads there. You could come up with an approximation like "each gallon of jet fuel consumed raises the sea level by one femtometre"; each action is individually trivial, but combined they are not trivial.
just look even at the comments here on HN (not specifically in this thread): so many people are defending viewpoints that somewhat A is not as bad as B if only C would happen, or pulling up weird conspiracy stuff or whatever only to be able to deny what needs to be done.

We have the knowledge, the tech, the wealth, and everything possibly needed lined up to tackle the problem. But then people get somehow catched by wird arguments and turn against each other instead of simply doing what needs to be done together.
It also begs the question: would actual terrorists put the name of their organisation in any of their financial transactions?

I know you should never underestimate human stupidity but even taking that into account this still feels like security theatre on the part of PayPal.
Thank you, right on point, the notes functionality is something of a buffer now to let me backlog the interruptions for later.

Its current form is intentionally separate so that you can use tsr without it, but I'm still thinking what the best approach might be.

I wouldn't really want to remove the feature completely, but replacing it with a much lower footprint feature as part of tsr is something I'm actively thinking about.
>You can fly an airplane on non-fossil fuels.

Not at the scale of commercial airlines though and certainly not (yet) as cheaply.
