Right. Depending on the take, your aligns with the utilitarian perspective as well. You don't need to make everyone happy, as long as it leads to the "greatest good" (rule utilitarianism) or the "highest average happiness" (average utilitarianism). My point is that this perspective is not devoid of philosophical problems.
I don't disagree with your objective, it's the path you are taking to get there. Legislating obedience is authoritarian and is solution that many people love due to its simplicity.

Regulators love working with large businesses like your card duopoly, I don't think you will see much improvement.
Of course not, their whole point was that nobody gets prosecuted for wage theft despite it being common.

Oh, and I have posted this here before, when I was a design eng for ILM/Lucas/Lucas Arts...

I was asked "when will you be able to deliver 'Power Over Fiber' (This was a mtg with all of the top execs at Cisco, and All tops at ILM.. and I murdered this this guy (in a polite way)

but I pissed my pants on the drive back from Bigrock about how funny that was...

Yes, that was me sitting in a design mtg with Cisco CTO and the CTO of Lucas Arts asked me to provide that... Ill leave it there...

(Just for context, the design req was "fiber to every desktop such that the workstations will be render nodes when workers leave... but they wanted Power Over Fiber"

So, if you know how, there is a dude with 15 billion dollars waiting for your call,.... and he has the best property in the US.
The only UI/UX newsletter I subscribe to[0] also has a a similar problem, but the advice is usually solid. Maybe the first and/or last rule should be ‘seek feedback’.

[0] https://user-interface.io/
One of my pet peeves in software development is not doing enough upfront R&D into feature and product design. User feedback is often only collected after the feature has shipped, landed and users are forced to deal with the "upgrade."

It's hard to take subjective matters, such as UI preferences, and draw objective conclusions from them ... but it can at least be done in the aggregate. Before "SaaS" took over software (and made modern computing mostly unappealing to me as an end-user), companies would have to spend quite a bit of resources doing focus groups and "beta testing" before that big product release. End users could be divided into the "early adopters" and the "review watchers", the latter group choosing to wait and decide whether or not it's worth "upgrading."

There is no reason that feature and product design in software can't go through an R&D phase except for cost. It's often cheaper to do your R&D in-house even though it often misses the mark because "real" customers rarely use a product like those who are intimately familiar with all of its quirks and oddities.

So, while you're correct that accessibility, usability and aesthetics will often vary from individual to individual ... I still think that companies could arrive at an objectively "right", or at least "best" design if they bothered to do more upfront R&D; soliciting user feedback and data from "real" end users very early on in the design and development process. Doesn't mean you will please everyone, but you can at least maximize the number of end users who are satisfied.
After seeing Elon fail upward I have to agree.

I've been an NFL Sunday Ticket subscriber for a few years, ever since I learned that you could subscribe without DirecTV service if you live in an apartment, but I'm thinking of cancelling this year.

The price was already outrageous given the number of games which are blacked out. There were plenty of times when I couldn't watch the games I wanted to at all, because they were blacked out for me on NFLST even though they weren't airing on a local station.

I'm sure the tech will be better under Google, but their video player was absolutely dreadful. Any time the HLS streaming bitrate changed (which it did every time you selected a different game), the audio stream would change and emit this screeching sound. And lord help you if you decided to switch from watching it on one device to another, because it was entirely likely that the service would decide that you were trying to share passwords and lock both devices out for like 15 minutes.

I don't personally pirate NFL streams, but I know people who do and the quality of their viewing experience is far above people who pay for NFLST. Sunday Ticket is the prime example of how having a total monopoly leads to a barely functioning and exorbitantly priced product.
As a dev who primarily uses Elixir, I was excited to see that you built OpenOwl with it!

Out of curiosity, what made you choose Elixir?

I wanted to use Elixir to build my PDF scraper (https://github.com/Nezteb/scrape-pdf) but didn't want to spend too much time figuring out how to use Playwright from Elixir, so I went with Node. I'll have to borrow some of your methods!
It's an entirely apples to apples logical comparison. The problem is that you don't like what the 'mandate unwanted medical treatment for the benefit of society' garden path leads down towards.

You simply choose to not quantify the very real harm that unvaccinated people inflict on people around them. You assign it a value of zero, by calling it 'statistical'. It's illogical and irrational to do so, though. The harm is real, it's quantifiable, and people are suffering and dying from it.

Most products don't need a whole book:

1) Use a mature, well-designed GUI framework. Especially if you don't have a designer it's unlikely that novel interactions or an unusual visual design will be a key selling point for your product.

2) Find a half-dozen folks from your target user audience or proxies who are as similar as possible. Give them a task to do with your product/prototype while you watch. Let them talk aloud without interrupting. Do this early and often.

If you can do those two things you will be ahead of most consumer products and vastly ahead of most enterprise products.

Precisely put. I wouldn't attempt to ignore his work on SpaceX, Tesla, etc since those companies have kickstarted their own revolution(s); electric vehicles and Starlink, even though I think Tesla FSD is a dangerous scam. Without it, the cars are fine.

Before, almost all the techies here were dreaming and begging to work for Elon Musk. Then the blue bird happened, got bought out and gave them 'emotional distress' and Elon immediately became public enemy number 1.

> So, hate and schadenfreude are the easy way out. "He, too, makes mistakes. So I'm not that worthless after all".

Hence that, the same techies who loved him are now eternally desperate for Twitter to be Elon's biggest failure as much as possible, giving 24/7 over-coverage about Twitter schadenfreude.

The manipulation of human psychology due to over-coverage and creating villains every month or year is just too easy to create a story out of that is guaranteed to attract eyeballs and clicks. It is an symptom of obsession.

No liability for the Covid vaccines (yes, I’m aware there are options that in reality almost never pay out) was a huge mistake. How do you repair a breach of trust that severe, outside of massive propaganda campaigns?

And that’s just one small part of how the Covid vaccinations were abysmal in terms of trust building. Blaming the “vaccine hesitant” instead of the politicians and media who lied (directly and indirectly)…further strengthens vaccine hesitancy.

But awesome writeup! Reading how they worked I finally understand why I got the headache :)
A large portion of the model is common (and cross-trained) across multiple languages. Only a small part is for language specific encoding/decoding. That means that not only is it easier for them to add language, but you can expect similar performance across languages.

Also you can mix and match encoders and decoders to translate whichever languages you want, and it will just work. Previously there was a separate model for each language pair.
It is deterrence.
Regarding "most religions are covered in blood".....what does this mean?

Does it mean that all religious scriptures have blood on their pages?

Does it mean that every single "member" (according to some unstated categorization algorithm) of every single religion across time was "covered in blood" (a phrase for which we we lack a definition)? Or, maybe only some members (which would then require a universally agreed upon cutoff point)?

Or, something else entirely?

And then if we were being thorough, we may find it interesting to compare the frequency of this phenomenon in other, non-religious forms of human collectives, lest our comments are misinformative (a big no non these days, at least sometimes)....but then, would that be in violation of the "Whataboutism" rule, the origin and validity of which seems rather unclear?

It's superhuman compared to a lot of humans. Especially when you factor in that even the most accomplished individuals rarely have more than five or six languages that they are really good at (exceptions exist) so that makes machine translation superhuman for the vast majority of the human/language pairs.

The latter: I believe that any kind of measurement (or theory for that matter) linked to some construct of a general intelligence is fundamentally flawed.

I don’t think we can construct a philosophical understanding on what intelligence is, as we are always bound to select an arbitrary set of traits which describes the bias of the researcher more than a useful model of behavior.

How do I provide scientific basis for the assertion that intelligence is not at all inheritable?

I don’t, but others do. If you believe you can select a set of traits which constitute an intelligent personality, which some researchers do (or rather assume for the sake of argument that it exists), then what you get is a large environmental effect on the supposed intelligence, a large cofactor of environment and inheritance, some genetical factor, but a close to 0 genetic bases for any group differences.

This is really a double tier rebuttal which states: Even if you are right (and you are not) that general intelligence exists, and that IQ is a useful measure of general intelligence (which is also false), you are still wrong that there is a genetic basis for any perceived inheritance of this supposed intelligence.
Looks very good. I wonder how the product team is thinking about user retention. I caught myself thinking "Huh, there's a lot of interesting content here — I hope I don't forget to look at it tomorrow". Not sure how to solve that without being annoying, TBH.
Sure. If I had never heard of Elon, and suddenly saw his name everywhere, and bros who cheer and justify him and feel like they’re the chosen people… and Tesla this and Twitter that... I'd be turned off as well, call him a nuisance, and steer clear of anything that has to do with him. And yeah, maybe I’d even try to level the scales, so to speak, by publicly speaking against him simply because I couldn’t bear the hype.

Is this assuming you have some analog hardware that's demodulating the signal in front of your ADC? How do you demodulate a signal from a 1GHz carrier with 200 MSPS?
Honest question. What's the "therefore" after this statement? The article mentions there have been 15 cases this year. After hundreds of thousands in 1988. So I can't exactly accept "therefore, vaccines are the problem" with a straight face. What "therefore" was actually intended here?
It’s impressive and surprising. Imagine going back to the year 2021 and telling the good people of HN that in 2023 AI would be as advanced like it is now. Literally no one would have believed you in 2021 if you did.
Good point. I was also thinking that I never saw a scantron while studying CS at two different American R1 research universities, but the CS departments were small with at most 25 people in a classroom. Peeking at some other universities now, it looks like some required undergrad CS classes have 500-1,000 seats. That's crazy, and clearly demands a different approach.

True/False questions happened sometimes in my experience, but not in this quantity (20). I wouldn't say it's lazy. The questions can be clever and writing them, such that the answer isn't debatable and doesn't depend on a bunch of assumptions, is pretty hard.

Lazy and terrible is where you have multiple choice questions for which 3/4 of the answers are throwaway nonsense, or the answers are numerical values that are definitively correct or incorrect but are trivia rather than anything conceptual.

> So humans still have to check the output, and now we’re in that situation where humans driving a Tesla on autopilot who are supposed to be 100% aware of the road aren’t, because they get lazy and doze off, and now the car crashes and whoops.

The only question is whether, on average, AI-augmented code suggestions reduce overall bug rates. Human devs are already dozing off with crashes and whoopsies at high rates so it doesn't matter too much if AI output has a bug or whoopsie so long as they occur at rates lower than pure human generated code.
Sure.

I know what you're getting at, but your statement, as others have pointed out, is incorrect. Your sampling rate always always has to be twice the highest frequency of the signal you are sampling.

If you are sampling an RF-modulated signal with a center frequency of 1GHz and 100MHz of baseband bandwidth, then yes, you do need to sample at 2.2GHz+. And some applications do exactly that.

If you're taking the RF signal, mixing it down to baseband, and filtering it to bandlimit, then you have a signal with maximum frequency component of 100MHz, and in that case, yes, your sampling rate can be 200MHz+
Yes your right... Seem like i was wrong. Sorry, I have made a brain fart here.

Quickly Switch You Default Browser and Keyboard Shortcuts with Raycast
If you're a developer who uses multiple browsers to keep your personal and work environments separate, you know how frustrating it can be to constantly switch between default browsers and different application shortcuts.

I'm using BetterTouchTool to quickly open my most-used applications (browser, IDE, Postman, LogSeq...). I've been using ControlPlane (https://github.com/dustinrue/ControlPlane) for some time to switch my default browser, but I've now perfected my setup using Raycast, Finicky and BetterTouchTool.

I'm sharing a basic Raycast extension written that allows you to quickly switch your default browser and application shortcuts via BetterTouchTool and Finicky.

The shared code is not intended to be used as it, rather to be cloned and customized to fit your own needs and your own config.

I'm always eager to learn ways of improving my efficiency on my Mac, so please share what you've setup on your end
That's exactly what I'm proposing, and I'm overjoyed to see that happening in the US! Thanks for bringing it to my attention!

Bilingual/Multilingual LLMs are human level translators more or less. The only way you can think "not on the cusp" is if you haven't actually used GPT-4 for translation. Use it and you'll be set straight pretty quickly.
You can have as low a bar for "genuine friend" as you like, and I don't think the final evidence (one step text dismissal) can clear it.

That said the author maybe does see the fakeness ("They want it to feel like a friendship" ie. not be an actual friendship, just something like that feels like it, fine line I know but it's desired performance vs actual emotion). However she still thinks they "owe" her something.

I have trouble distinguishing the two as an unusable design is usually automatically worse for me but you're not wrong in making the distinction that they specified beautiful. I guess I wish people would choose functional/usable over beautiful or merge them in a way that doesn't sacrifice the one I find more important!

To be fair, I also just generally don't like the look of it without borders and stuff.
Whenever someone criticizes Elon Musk I just remember he sent a car he drove, a car built by a company he leads, into heliocentric orbit using his own rockets via his own space launching tech company. I don't know how you can talk about the guy without that context. People talk about him like he's just another jerk on Twitter. His car is in space. He's also the wealthiest person on the planet. And his car is in space.
Seconded the Tufte books, especially to learn about the principles of visual communication. Though as a fan who has all his books and attended multiple lectures, I have to admit that his forays into interaction design were... underwhelming.
