Fuck the US government. There should be mass civil disobedience over this if it somehow passes. Let them try to prosecute millions of citizens. This is no better than what the CCP or Putin's regime does to it's own citizens. I see that the EU and UK have similar designs to control the internet.
You can freely install apps on your iphone. All you need is an Apple computer. It only can be used for a week? before you have to install it again. I don't pay apple a dime and still develop software for iPhones occasionally without any issues.

Also, websites are pretty powerful. Apple even allowed websites to send notifications now.

"Doing no work" would be great. Understanding the commit they made last thing on Friday, which is incomprehensible and has broken your work, is not so great.

In my last job, I worked with three incompetents, none of whom were jerks, in a team of ten. I reckon the rest of us had to do twice the work to navigate their mistakes.

This is the "Please stop writing code" syndrome.

I've read the bill and while I'm not a fan for more general reasons, it doesn't say anything like this at all. The bill is strictly about foreigners from designated US "adversaries" having an ownership stake in large technology companies operating in the US. The text cherry picked in some of these news articles is just a list of the types of technology companies the bill specifies should be the prioritized when evaluating which foreign owned companies should be scrutinized.
That have a million or more users and are owned by adversaries of the United States.

Seems reasonable.

> Not sure how seriously to take that

I can help with that: not seriously at all. Calling someone a nerd has been a thing for the better part of a century. How long has TikTok been around?
Yeah, side note we need corporate death penalty
That and there are also fewer jobs available to teens / young adults. The types of jobs that we are making obsolete, whether through automation or regulation, are the types of repetitive, "unskilled" jobs that were previously offered to people just starting out. I'll take a chance on my 16 year-old nephew if I can pay him $5 / hour but if I have to pay him $15 / hour by law I'd rather have someone with more references. I'm also likely to ask that person to take on more responsibility, too, since my overhead just went up and my margins were paper thin to begin with. So now I need someone with additional experience.
Elon donated money back when they were pretending to be a charity. He has no stake in them.
We're so poorly multi-threaded, even addressing climate change has been horribly slow...
Yeah the corporate world is absolutely full of such people.

Granted, it usually isn't premeditated; it's more likely to be of the reactive / passive sort. Some form of: "Oh I'm having a bad day, so I'm going to spontaneously get salty at you over something completely non-consequential, or in fact, over an outright, and frankly pretty thick-headed misunderstanding on my part. Not that I'll ever apologize, though. Oh and good luck trying to go over my head to get one out of me."

That sort of thing. Less frequently, outright nasty and career-damaging (and sometimes health-damaging) stuff happens too.

Such that at some point, one realizes that, to a large extent -- putting up with this nonsense is what the gig is all about, and what you're essentially getting paid for.
I agree shootings do large societal harm past the students at the school (though to be fair, I'd say the opposite side could correctly argue that TikTok makes lasting changes to children/society beyond just the ones that use it (and may be correlated with depression/suicide, which is also profoundly sad))

Surely you have to do some kind of math eventually, or else you'll end up prioritizing whatever sounds the most dramatic instead of the things that actually matter (consider people who are more afraid of sharks than drowning, even though shark deaths are 1 in 4,332,817 and drowning deaths are 1 in 1,134)

I acknowledge that the numbers I'm using are not, by any means, conclusive. And I'm not saying we should prioritize TikTok above shootings just because it's more common. But this seems like a reason to get better evidence about the way the world is, not refuse to touch numbers because some harms are too sacred to attempt to quantify.
I agree to an extent.

To use Loos's example, the original mass manufactured table was sturdy and practical. Its simple design meant that it would not to the fickle changes in fashion. This was the positive promise of mass manufacturing.

There's no natural law that scaling up production should imply that things are of lower quality. Yet, that's where we are.
I think "whether or not [you] know it" is key. The definitions I'm advancing have to do with the subjective mental work you do (or don't do). I agree that "typing" is literal because we do not loop in the concept of physical type making an impression when we interpret or describe the action of fingers on a keyboard. The term has flown the nest, so to speak.

What about my last paragraph? Do you deny that there's a two-step process going on, or do you actually see the phrase "Chinese cradle" and interpret it to mean "birthplace of civilization" rather than first assuming it means a baby-related object produced in China?

Of course it's weak. This is all pedantry. But then again, "literal" now means both "literal" and "not literal" so maybe all linguistic distinctions are fragile. Less useful once they're destroyed, though—it would be nice if we had a word that meant "literal" without also meaning "not literal."
Even in astronomy, when one starts to say "this black hole is about the size of our galaxy", it should raise epistemological questions.

This finding seems to have a highly complex relationship to the data, and to not have been replicated anywhere yet. This is the perfect place to add a "something that looks like" before the "galaxy sized black hole".

But well, this is a criticism of journalism anyway, not of astronomy.
It would be wise to print a new part while you can, just in case the cracked part fails completely at some point.

Suspicion is inference. It fails to provide enough information (on its own) to decide whether something is threatening or desirable.

LLMs are inference models.
I'm not sure what you're claiming is up in the air. My first claim was about the changing cohort, so if that's what you're referring to, the statistics are clear. Here's how it breaks down in Canada:

https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/daily-quotidien/220427/cg-b0...

Transgender women were dominant and stable for a long time, as I said (male to female transitioners), and then trans men and non-binary cohort have shot past those levels like a rocket over the past few years.

Some of the increases are doubtless more acceptance of trans people, but it's not clear why that would affect the genders differentially in such a dramatic fashion.
"There is also plenty of fun to be had: ETA Accountability Bot - when I send “I’ll be there in 10” it could follow with an accurate translation: “on average, this means I’ll be there in 13.26 minutes”."

Brilliant!
Finally, someone took the advice to "go out and change the world while you still know everything"
Because the US isn't China, not should it try to be.
There's a difference between offering "unregistered securities" (which is practically the very definition of a crypto exchange) and stealing user deposits.

The unfortunate reality, though, is that Coinbase depositors ARE unsecured creditors of Coinbase and may lose their deposits in the event of a bankruptcy. This is all spelled out in their quarterly filings.

Not your keys, not your crypto as they say.
But according to leaked audio from more than 80 internal TikTok meetings, China-based employees of ByteDance have repeatedly accessed nonpublic data about US TikTok users [1]

It is irrelevant if the data is stored in the US if Chinese government have tools they can use to search for dissidents, journalists etc

>But i recently got a resin printer and that thing lives in the bathroom now beside the washing machine. It has build in ventilation through a coal filter but the stench is just awful.

It's also worth noting that the smell varies considerably between different kinds of resin. having a dedicated space is optimal, but with the right materials it's farily manageable, especially if you're not planning to run it 24/7.
I don't think many realise but most people are incompetent sometimes. We all go through phases of varying productivity and it can swing from one extreme to the other. It happens when people have kids, discover hobbies, get burnt out, have an existential crisis etc. At any one time 1/10 usually-good people will be like this.

An effective strategy for dealing with this in an organisation is to move quick and minimise damage. When the shit hits the fan and this starts causing problems, its usually not because a person didnt do any work, but because they did crap work that burdened others. This is especially difficult in engineering. You can identify this and get them off the line quickly, then take the time to figure out whats happening and assist them back on track.

The development of a culture that doesn't incentive people to hoard power helps, the last thing you want is a person performing badly to be in some critical role. People should be able to back down / step up depending on their current "phase"
> i think when a court finds you have deleted evidence, that the information deleted is assumed to be evidence against you

This is the concept of "adverse inference", and Epic has indeed requested the court instruct the jury of this. However, at this time that hasn't been decided by the court.
> most of the poor here still is relatively much better off than those from under-developed countries

Education wise, middle class in a developing or under developed country will still beat poor in a developed country even if the latter have more money than the former. Culture has a lot to do with it, a lot has to do with the latter's parents not teaching current parents the same thing that the former's were taught. Home situation is much of the problem, and you can't just throw money at the problem, unfortunately.

European countries might do a better job at this by either (a) having less poor people (immigrants) or (b) putting in more resources to ensure that these kids get more support at home and in school to make up for their disadvantage. But often, you'll find in European countries that they have the same problems with kids from disadvantaged background being behind middle class kids, they just work at solving the problem better than we do in the states.

"Organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful"... Except when it makes us look bad.
But that is not what the author stated. They didn't allude to a god like meaning. They cited utility as an example of meaning for which they had no association.

All this talk about chatgpt replacing programmers and skill atrophy - meanwhile all I'm getting out of chatgpt is bullshit and hallucinations. Copilot is amazing at boilerplate, but that's about it - I don't even read any suggestions that don't fall into that category anymore.

Copilot is amazing because it lets me stay in the flow when I need to churn out stuff (when I already know what I want). I would pay over 100$/month for a faster/less jittery copilot.

ChatGPT is cheap at 20$/month but not even worth that price.

Everything is information. It might be accurate, it might not. Personally I would not _trust_ the tornado report: maybe it was 25 people or 27? What motivations might there be to exaggerate or diminish the number? Disaster reporting often exaggerates during the initial phase, and then corrects (or not) later. In that case, perhaps errors are more likely to be a lack of knowledge, to reflect hearsay and confusion between agencies?

I think it’s an important to maintain an attitude of skepticism, to be aware of sources of error, and biases that might be at play. Blind _trust_ in information sources is foolhardy.
Isn't that what happened to SVB?

Climate change is not even close to humanity ending. At max wipe out a few coastal cities. And even that is unlikely because those that screams 'climate change' the loudest has the most assets in coastal prime real estates. Humans will still be the apex predator of the planet even if there's human caused climate change catastrophe.

AI literally can end humanity, every single individual potentially. But definitely replace humans as the apex predator of the planet. It is also consistently voted the highest likelihood cause if humanity is to end in the next 100 years.
https://riskfrontiers.com/insights/ranking-of-potential-caus...

We should stop the climate change fear mongering. Yeah we shouldn't burn fossil as if its consequence free. But New York and Santa Monica beach should've been under water 20 years ago if the climate alarmist are correct. That's a far cry from pretending it's some number 1 priority. It shouldn't be even close. Having climate to distract us from things that will actually end us is the dumbest own goal possible for our species.
There are so many variables which one might want to tweak depending on their specific use case that it seems a bit difficult to boil it down to one-click.

How is it misleading? It seems to be a standard measurement for vehicles that can move via both gas engines and electric motors.

It gets around 42 mpg when running purely on the gas engine. Based on the distance I have traveled and the amount that I have used the gas engine, it works out to 172 miles per actual gallon used.

MPGe is what you would refer to for your fully electric car.

You're using the word "safe" in the wrong context here.
There are people who look at crime statistics to figure out how likely they are to get murdered based on their circumstances and optimize that, and there are people who watch the news.

There are people who look at data to determine how likely they were to die from covid vs. the risk and effectiveness of a vaccine authorized for emergency use, and there are people who watch the news.

You can't have a good argument with people who watch the news because they get convinced of their position emotionally through anecdotes that the news focuses on, not data. You end up arguing with that person's emotional reaction to anecdotes. It's never a good idea to criticize another person's emotions if you expect to remain friends with them or not get flagged on HN.
It's a scam. Don't bother.

Someone sat in a cafe or sitting in their care close to a cafe created the account using a clean USB booted laptop, and again used another public wifi while sitting in their car to push the source code. Unless they have serious verification mechanism and fraud prevention a more techy user can possibly avoid being traced.
I think we can safely say that social media hurts mental health worldwide, and school shootings are also really bad for people. It’s almost like they’re separate issues and we don’t have to pick one or the other to deal with. Does that sound reasonable?
In a way, people who are concerned about skills atrophying are repeating the cycle of previous generations, shaking their fist at higher level programming languages or drawing digital images. How dare you not keep the skills of those who came before you! Time will not be so kind to this view.

Some skills will atrophy, as article mentions we don't really care about road navigation anymore. But this is not a bad thing, we can focus our concerns elsewhere. Do you care exactly how your home is heated? Do you know how to maintain every part of your car? Do you spend every weekend keeping your skill on sewing up to date? Some of you might do all of these, but the point is we have let so many skills become things relegated to experts/tech that once used to be common.

It's this relegation that has allowed experts to become even deeper experts in their niche. So I don't worry about skills atrophying at all. There will always be a new crop of nerds (affectionately) to obsess over whatever niche can exist.
why cant you just use ender 3 ?
I don't know which reductionist framework you're working with to make these comparisons, but they're wrong, because they're reductionist. Some people like war, maybe things were awesome for them? Not to mention that humans are very social creatures. You can't just say 'medicine is better', 'crime is down' and neglect the erosion/transmogrification of every single social institution that has been around for XYZ decades just because there isn't a number or well-defined historical analysis associated with it.

I'll put it this way. We know exactly what happens when wars are started. We know very little about the effects of having an attention economy. For every thing you can give me that we know has changed for the better, I can give you another thing that's changed probably for the worse but we really have no clue. If people are living longer, more miserable lives, is that really an improvement?
