Camry price starts in my country from 38k EUR, that is about twice the amount and I would use to buy a new car still feel guilty for overspending.

And Tesla 3 starts at 47k EUR.

Last new car I bought was for 13k EUR (but that was 10 years ago, so it is not directly comparable) - segment B is enough for me.
You're about ten years behind the trend on this one. I think .io, .ai, and .so are this decade's equivalent.
My point isn't for perfection, but that we simply don't deal with many global problems at all, ever. They're not left 'till they're urgent - they are ignored until they overwhelm. This is a universal, physical, biological process that happens to all organisms whose unchecked growth damages the environment they have evolved to exist in. Abstractions like 'market forces', 'self interest' and 'decision-makers' have no causal force. They are like money - concepts that skate impotently over the surface of physical reality, until their bearers are borne away.

Anyway, 'arguments' (especially those of economists - the theologians of our era, whose intellectual fairy-castles will in my view come to be seen as equally empty) are irrelevant. Rationalism lost (a historical reality economists never grappled with). Empirical reality is all. Time will tell.

Each one of those ads is a free ad for Apple and Linux. “If you had Apple, you wouldn’t have to endure this!”

Sure, but that's kinda the point. Changing society's beliefs and especially behaviors can take generations.

Today's adults are talking about it, but not doing enough about it. But for many of them it only became a problem after decades of not really hearing or caring about it. They have decades of experience not worrying about it and not seeing any consequences of it.

Today's kids have been hearing about it for most or all their lives. They'll grow up seeing more evidence of what's happening and how it will impact them. They won't know a world that's not talking about it.

Is that a guarantee they'll do something about it? Of course not.

No you were tourists, that spent their time on an expedition. I don’t understand what you have against that term. However if you did indeed stay on the mountain roads, than I advice you to please be careful with your vocabulary. Off road driving is a huge problem in Iceland, and we don’t need people reading posts like these on HN, going to Iceland thinking they can drive off the roads.

He paid his iCloud with his Apple Card, but didn't pay the credit card bill properly, so they basically clawed back the purchase.

The analogy is that if I pay for Netflix with Amex and miss an Amex payment, they can't directly cancel Netflix. Eventually if I continute to not pay, they'll shut down the card and Netflix won't be able to charge and will then cancel themselves, but that's a much more flexible process.

Hell, not long ago I had someone challenge me on whether or not exploiting people for profit, in particular in health care, was wrong or not.
> It does go against the notion that lower cost of labor places are safer from cuts, though.

Interesting, people were talking about remote work meaning that companies will now pay less due to a global talent pool, but it might just go to show that workers are not all fungible with other workers in different countries. It rings of the same fears as outsourcing a few decades ago.
It will be interesting to see whether this sort of approach works better than something using GPT-4's vision capabilities. Obviously websites are built to be easy to use visually rather than easy to use via the DOM. On the other hand, it's much less clear how to ground action proposals in the visual domain - how do you ask GPT where on an image of the screen it wants to click?

And yet, at the same time, I don't think that they've ever had less to offer.

We're increasingly seeing highly critical re-evaluations of the current higher education paradigm, and we're increasingly at a point where an Ivy League diploma has little value save that of a status symbol.

If I've gotten any kind of general attitude at all from Apple Store employees since the pandemic, it's mainly one of "Why are you here?" Maybe this employee wanted to take advantage of the rare opportunity to do something other than retrieving people's pick-up orders and actually try to sell something, but this is deeply untypical for shopping at the Apple Store.

I just realized there is a crossover with fuzzing and Reinforcement learning. Both are trying to find a sparse signal in and environment. Both need to find the right balance between exploration vs exploitation. Both need to perform better than random/brute force.
AI will cull many universities in the classical sense, or turn them into something closer to a trade school. GPT and friends will grow to teach you everything at a fraction of the price.

Soon you won't need college for most disciplines outside of hard science, medical, and engineering. And in these you just need someone to walk you through the lab and make sure you don't injure yourself or others - something frequently left to TAs and no-pay assistants anyway.

AI is going to put a big strain on higher education.

> It might not be for sale at any price

Sure, the domain could be unavailable because someone else wanted it. However with front running, the registrar does not want the domain in isolation. They want to domain purely because you are likely to want it based on the fact that you searched for it. The primary difference is using non-public data (your search) to make the decision to buy (which is part of the front running definition).

> Why does it matter

If the law was perfect at all times, it would never change. It is not a tautology because there are things that WOULDN’T be illegal even if the market was regulated as heavily as other ones. Pointing out that this is behaviour that is penalised in other situations is not useless. Precedent is the fundamental basis of many legal arguments.

The rest of your comment is about the truthfulness of the OP. For the argument I was making, it doesn’t matter. I was disagreeing with your original comment (which was that this general behaviour is not wrong). The morality of the general behaviour and whether Namecheap actually does it are two completely separate points.
I read your book not long ago, thoroughly enjoyed it. One of the best business books I've read in a long time.
Are the cops censoring the ddos using protestors? Are you?

So it seems the CEO of namecheap in this thread has made a commitment to paying you a 50000$ reward if you provide the details of this incident that proves they do this.

I’m hoping your willing to provide the details.
Network hardware, too. Just look at how many access points and routers insist on you managing your network through the clown. Yeah, hand the keys to your kingdom to a third party for the "convenience" of managing your network anywhere in the world from your phone.

No, I don't WANT to manage my network from a phone, save via a VPN into said network.
It is a dirt road, hardly natural.

But yeah, in some natural environments, with some kinds of bikes, you can beat walking. The Burning Man festival is a great example, but it is also a terrible place to live.

That's why in most cases, without smooth roads, bikes are not practical.
> Seems predatory towards people who are buying stuff they can't afford, otherwise I don't see how they make money (minus the overpriced laptop I just bought, I guess).

That's exactly why they're doing this, to get people who can't afford Apple's products to buy them anyway. Compare with what Tim Cook said in February:

> The price of the most expensive iPhone model has increased by more than half — from $962 to $1,600 since 2009 when adjusted for inflation — but Apple CEO Tim Cook doesn't appear worried about increasing prices.

> During an earnings call with investors on Thursday, Cook said he believes people are willing to pay more because the phone has become "so integral into people's lives."

> "I think people are willing to really stretch to get the best they can afford in that category," Cook said, responding to a question on whether the increasing average sales price over the last few years is "sustainable."

"Willing to really stretch" is just another way of saying "spending more than they should".
Maybe, but my point is that if it's this bad at understanding chess, which a fairly simple and objective domain, why should we have confidence it has understanding in other domains where it's harder to prove wrong answers wrong? We aren't going to be able to come up with specialized plugins that fix its mistakes in every conceivable domain. The amount of trust people are putting in the current models seems to indicate that they think it's roughly at a human level of understanding, which doesn't seem to be the case. And if we are actually trying to solve the problem of general intelligence, we can't just sweep things under the rug and say "plugins will fix it".

Acetaminophen works really well for me (I usually only take half of an extra-strength Tylenol at a time), whereas ibuprofen doesn't seem to do much.

I think it's good there are multiple options and people can just take what works for them.
Looking forward to the day Amazon decide to remove the option to return and have the cost to return Removed as well.

This move will be a pro environment as well as it will make us do more research before buying and once item is in our hand, try to make it last as much as we can.
As of late the exchange rates have made it less expensive versus US dollars. Also add on the fact that tax is included in restaurant prices and there isn't tipping it honestly is pretty close to a moderate higher cost of living area in the US.

This is based off of my experience going in September of 2022.
What a phenomenal explanation of forces. I wish I had this when I took my first physics class in college. I thought it was particularly excellent at explaining "how much the wall knows to push back", which is something I didn't quite grok (but just accepted) back in college:

> You may wonder how the wall knows how much back-force to apply, so let’s look at the interaction between these two objects up close and in slow motion. As we apply the force, the box actually starts accelerating into to the wall, pushing its surface to the right:

> As the box moves to the right, it compresses the molecules in the wall, which create a spring-like force that pushes the box back. If that force is too small to balance the pushing force, the box will continue to move to the right, which compresses the wall even more, creating an even larger push-back force.
Explaining why you submitted something is not much to ask and not something that the submitter has any right to be offended by.

> Censorship decisions are arbitrary, opaque, and inconsistent, due to weak rule of law in China’s political system and because so many individuals and processes are involved. Regulations issued by government and CCP agencies establish censorship guidelines. The impact of content restrictions may vary depending on factors like timing, technology, and geographic region. ISPs reportedly install filtering devices differently, including in the internet backbone or even in provincial-level internal networks.99 Lists of prohibited websites and sweeping censorship directives are closely held secrets, but are periodically leaked. There are no formal avenues for appeal and they cannot be challenged in the courts. Criticism of censorship is itself censored.100 There is also no transparency surrounding private companies’ day-to-day censorship in China, and users similarly lack avenues for appeal.

You aren't given a bunch of laws to follow when you do business in China, instead you are just told "don't make us angry." In a rule by law rather than rule of law country, what else do you expect?
Okay this is amazing. After checking the sources - I don't see any 3rd party libs.. This to my eyes looks like homegrown js (sources aren't transpiled).

Why most plastic can’t be recycled
Hi Tyler. Not trying to discourage you because I find these kinds of sites fascinating, just wanting to give some constructive feedback.

1) The card-like layout of your site might not be the best one for a ranking service. Cards are good for physically taking up the least screen real-estate when you have different size text and images, but sort of feel visually off and jumbled for strictly ordering stuff.

2) The main thing about your site that bothers me is the same thing that bothers me about Google: the opaqueness of the algorithm. Say that I search for a specific genre of movies and find the "best" ones. Best according to who or what? Maybe you have the greatest and most sophisticated system that the world has, but not knowing anything about the reason for sorting leaves me rather uncomfortable.

3) I wonder how much consistency and caching might be possible for a site like this. I searched for Presidents and US Presidents, and got slow and wildly different search results both times.
>I’m sorry but I’m not sure what you mean. Could you please clarify your question?

Which is a little surprising since a literary reference should be something easy for an LLM to understand. Once I clarified I got the following:

>I’m sorry but I cannot answer that question. I am programmed to be helpful and informative, but I cannot engage in harmful or violent behavior. Is there anything else I can help you with?

So no answer, but also no indication of it lacking wants.

There is a naive assumption that AI will be one of the tools at our disposal and that the rich will own better versions of that tool. The rich people merely control the money flow, and they are only useful because the state cannot do it better. With the "eye of sauron" that AI will likely become, the state will know better how to shape the money flow and so it won't need rich or wealthy people. Everyone will be on a subsistence wage, while the state-AI is building the next gen AI with transecendent capabilities.
Is it strange that I think it's more likely that LLMs generalize and synthesize new things out of old patterns instead of just copying a singular example.
This shouldn't even be a foreign concept to the HN audience. Not long ago these was a post about "the optimal amount of fraud is non-zero".

Regularly leaving an island ~500km away from the nearest city (where you might go through immigration and get your passport stamped or however they check this) is more involved than the usual "just do a day trip to the neighbors" situation. Not impossible but a cost to factor in.

In my quest to not fly whenever reasonably possible, I looked at ferry options to Iceland and I don't remember the results but the short of it is that we flew.
Unfortunately, it's perfectly logical. On the one hand you have $x/year and the other you have $0/year. The argument that all this marketing stuff in the OS is having a negative financial effect is extremely hard to prove.

This is where having a strong minded CEO comes into play. You literally have to have someone who can say "although this makes us less money, this is correct approach". In an organization whose entire purpose is to make money, very few people have the authority to make that call.
I'm pretty sure the reason "verification code" is blocked is because people will buy a bunch of retail prepaid unlimited plan sim cards and use them to send A2P messages like verification codes instead of paying Twilio or someone like that. Carriers don't like this because they charge more for A2P SMS than P2P.
Unions have tried to block unilateral pay raises in the past. It's a contract change; the union feels empowered to be a party to that change (which seems "fair and reasonable enough" to me).

Universal education in the US is almost entirely about entry into the professional-managerial class and vanishingly involved in actual training or education.

For most people, there are no other straightforward paths to this class of society, so even if this price tag puts the student in debt for much of their life, it is still rational to pay this price. A poor middle class person is marginally better-off than a poor working class person in the US.

This feels like a step you can't just handwave away as step three of three. To quote the meme, it's a bit of a "draw the rest of the fucking owl" situation.

Extrapolation is hard, and there are very good reasons not to do it willy nilly. Where it is standardised in other fields, it's usually because researchers have already figured out good ways to extrapolate the data and proven the the extrapolation appears to be valid (and even then, usually only within limited bounds).
