I don't really know what the standards on that subreddit are, but in my reading the author of this post is looking more for a "community discussion" rather than "promotion" here. Trying to promote your product can distract from the community discussion aspect.

Aside: one problem is that from looking at [1] is that I have no idea what kind of game this is; I get that it's mostly story-based, but is this a point-and-click adventure? Or more like Gone Home? Or something else? "3D visual novel" almost sounds like a movie in a .exe format. I feel like I'd be spending €19 for a cat in a bag.

Would more energy be available for capture from Jupiter's reflectance or direct from the sun? My heart wants to say yes but my head thinks even as a point source, direct solar energy is higher.

If it was other RF or heat, maybe not. I wonder if a Stirling engine could work alternating shade and Jupiter's direct radiation?

I also wondered if lowering a long tail could acquire electrostatic energy greater than its coefficient of drag. As above, cute but .. no.

Let's take this as true (although I'm not sure it is!). Even if it is, you still must agree that AI will provide bad agents with a staggering amount of new attack vectors.

I dont know of any people who are happier addicted to hard drugs than not addicted to hard drugs. If the supply of hard & tainted drugs increases, then people with addictions are more likely to increase their consumption of these drugs.

The problem & solution space involves more than just enforcement. A root cause is the ineffectiveness & corruption in social safety net programs including housing, drug treatment, & other domains. Not saying we should not have any programs but the ineffectiveness with increasing budgets speaks for itself. Effective & efficient programs should be rewarded while ineffective & inefficient programs should be discontinued.

Government agencies which engage in harmful activities such as drug trafficking should be reformed or disbanded. I don't expect the status quo to change, as we didn't get into this mess with rational institutions, but its worthwhile to have a sober view of root causes to at least put pressure on the institutions to be more rational.

I think that's a great example. Say you somehow had a skilled electrical engineer analyzing how a little IC manages to spit out a sorted array when given an unsorted array, but you're in a world without computer science or even information theory and this IC had just come through a portal. How could they figure out the explanations that we have about programming languages, compilers, assembly code, transistors, etc.? Well, they'd probably have to invent information theory and computer science before they'd even know what such an explanation could even feasibly look like.

Depends on what "more science" means, but one factor is that going fast means you need to burn a lot more fuel to slow down so you can get into orbit around the target planet.

The mass of the fuel spent on breaking could be spent on other things, like extra instruments, or fuel for thrusters so you can orient more often and stay in orbit longer. For example, the Galileo[1], Cassini[2] and Dawn[3] missions ended primarily due to the probes running out of fuel. Perhaps not the best examples since they all had quite long runs, but still, more thruster fuel would probably have meant even longer missions.

> I suppose my problem is that the term 'perfect information' doesn't really communicate anything really interesting about chess.

Yes it _does_ communicate something interesting. It is a basic fact about the rules of play. If there were imperfect information, it would be a different game. Poker with perfect information means everyone plays with their cards up. It is a fundamentally different game.

The fact that chess has perfect information for all parties is fundamental to the game.
Can confirm. My mind tends to race sometimes, especially after caffeine consumption. It's hard to get it to "shut up". I held my breath as a simple experiment and it helped quiet down my mind. I actually learned this trick from Huberman, there's a podcast about stress where he talks about this.
Thank you for your detailed response. I just purchased a laser marker (50W) and planning to utilize it for the customized items. I think it might justify my cost eventually. I am also thinking about the software engineering with experience vs handmade wooden / metal things to sell. But I realize I also waste time doing weird hobbies and why not make money while having fun so that would be the justification. Last question if you don't mind, did you try metal or any metal product modification mixed with wood?
To the flagged reply: There are multiple ways to count the continents, but the particular reason you mocked for listing two americas was just wrong. I'm not trying to force you to do it my way, but I want you to use basic logic.

And I don't know what your point is about central america. Nobody calls central america a continent.
So would you care to comment on how this relates to the original contention, which is the claim that a loss function could not discover Newton's law of gravitation?

Because what you're arguing, extensively, is that due to lack of fit, Newton's Law of Gravitation wasn't settled science until observational data was of sufficient fidelity to clearly distinguish it.

Which sure sounds like a loss function.

Ultimately the things that make money come down to being in a room where something needs doing and being "hired" to do it - that is, what is good within the marketplace is what the national frameworks of financing and law implicitly deem to be good and worth encouraging.

At the top level, this means big firms that secure funding for big projects and then grab whatever employees they can find to execute on it - and so there are career pathways like the defense contractor business where you're ultimately being employed by the Department of Defense, but in an indirect way where they're your client. Lots of verticals have that kind of relationship. It can also result in small niches where you can become the person who does the one thing well, for a whole industry, and you're always in demand. Like Don LaFontaine for movie trailer voiceovers. But in each case, that kind of thing is often an "end up" - you don't decide early on that you're gonna be the guy who says "in a world" really well, or that you are going to spend years developing some expensive secret weapons system. You just get the offer and say yes, over and over, until it becomes the thing you do.

What influencer social media kind of is, is a way of bootstrapping more niche roles into existence by being really visible on the platform. And I believe that's a big part of the appeal. But it takes a coherent sense of self and one's interests to not end up being used by it as disposable content.

And this intersects with education because there's usually an angle to that sort of thing of building your own community and being a kind of "community manager with a channel" and not necessarily going towards a books and courses upsell so much as a gatekeeper of an online space, one which could be full of possibilities for salon-style discourse.

If what you post is "look at my cool project", it can get some likes, but it doesn't communicate as much or in such a sticky way as "be part of this community".
On one hand censorship is bad, on the other crime in particular is an easy way for non-locals to astroturf or disrupt local communities because they can just grab a news article and argue on the basis of generic talking points. I think it’s absolutely the case that this is regularly happening in many Reddit communities already, I’ve seen it first hand in the San Francisco and Bay Area subreddits.

IMO the engagement optimization problem in social media is driving the increasing share of crime discussions online. Yes crime is getting worse in some areas, but I think crime just heavily drives engagement (which news media has known for a long time). With more conservatives going online, we’re seeing a bifurcation of traditional (cancel or callout culture, some kind of injustice) outrage porn - more common in the past when the internet leaned younger and more educated/urban - and now crime-related outrage porn that appeals to the right wing.
I would beg to differ.

One person's good is another person's evil.

It would appear you are falsely equivocating benefit (which is indeed, subjective) with good; it therefore follows that you also equivocate injury with evil.

While indeed, something beneficial is often considered "good," this does not imply that all good consists in benefit, or that all benefit is inherently good. It would be evil, for instance, for one to benefit by exploiting another. Contrariwise, their mutual co-operation would be good and result in their mutual benefit.

The distribution[0] of your major and minor terms is of great importance when reasoning upon matters as grave as a system of objective morality. One may benefit from good or evil actions. To equivocate between good and benefit in toto is to possess a fundamentally mistaken idea of the principles of objective morality. In so doing, you do not reject objective morality, but rather your misunderstanding thereof.

>Sad to see so little empathy for these animals.

I didn't know offhand how many cattle are slaughtered for meat every year.

The answer appears to be something around 150 million. (22 million in the US, divided by 15% global share)

So, that would be like eight thousand for every one of these that died by fire.

I don't have a particular point, except I'm thinking of the quote attributed to Josef Stalin:

"If only one man dies of hunger, that is a tragedy. If millions die, that’s only statistics."

For a cow, every year is like 30 Holodomors.
It's even worse actually. Once you can fool one AI you can fool every instance of it.

Interesting situation with the example of the Sahara sand being used to experiment on the panels

These days it is quite common to find solar panels on lamp posts of well being areas near the Sahara and elsewhere in the world

My big question is how well might these patterned panels handle erosion... It would be no fun to the investors if one, two light or medium sandstorms after installation then the pattern becomes eroded and they ended up paying a +15% premium or wherever it ends up being for fancy laser etched solar panels

Ofc that edge case aside.... This will be very wonderful on most of the planet
The point of solar on a camper van is to charge an auxiliary battery used for appliances. The range gains for the main battery pack are so minimal it wouldn't make sense unless the car spent the majority of it's time parked in the sun between locations.

Business Intelligence 101: Data Within Multidimensional View – Part 2
Now this is what the internet is all about.
Despite what the comment at the start of that file says, these aren't the right syscall numbers for x86-64 (nor x86-32!)

64 bit: read = 0, write = 1, open = 2 ...

32 bit: restart_syscall = 0, exit = 1, fork = 2 ...

It's like they shuffle these around on purpose and don't bother to properly document it anywhere.

I like that HN allows for bay-area related discussions of a higher quality than other websites, but I can see why that would be annoying for people who aren’t Bay Area residents.

Still, YC is in the Bay Area, as is Silicon Valley. It’s a huge influence in the tech and entrepreneurship world.
Totally agree that a low level language is necessary, but my point was that memory-unsafe languages are not necessary, which it seems you agree since you mentioned Rust as a candidate.

Man, this article hit me hard. Years ago I wanted to blog about more complex subjects to a beginner audience. As I built my mini blog series, I started to realize there was so much to explain. It took me much longer than I thought to write it. I decided it was way too much work and decided to never write tutorials again. Kudos to those who do.
What a crazy idea!
Ask HN: What do you think about adding Unix Command like feature to ChatGPT?
When using ChatGPT, I've frequently found myself hitting the "up arrow" key to retrieve my previous prompts, so I can modify them, like you would on a Unix command line.

As Sama visits this site, just thought I'd ask: Is this something that could be added?

Or are there shortcuts I just don't know about? I asked ChatGPT itself and it told me it was not possible.

What do HN'ers think?
Thanks, I only skimmed it and must have skipped that part.

Get an old iso of Slackware and do it from scratch. For the authentic experience do it without internet access and using only the included install instructions. I once attempted this as an exercise on a very old thinkpad having only DOS+mscdex on the hard drive and a Slackware 2.1 CD-ROM. Bootstrapping that system is a feat that I’m still proud of. Though it was sort of a pointless exercise for my own gratification.

Tell HN: Twitter started mass suspending apps today for no reason
Just got an email about 4 hours ago saying:

Hello,
This is a notice that your app - XXXXX - has been suspended from accessing the Twitter API.

Please visit developer.twitter.com to sign up to our new Free, Basic or Enterprise access tiers.

More information can be found on our developer community forums.

I'm already on the new Free Tier so no idea why this is about. Not to mention, the switch is supposed to be at the end of this month, not today.

If you want to generalize it even further you can have tensor calculus. An example is each point in a field is a 3x3 matrix with a special property of positive symmetric. A diffusion tensor MRI image has one at each voxel whereas a regular mri image might have a scalar value (grayscale). The principle eigenvector might represent the direction of a muscle fibre for that Voxel.

I’ve heard this called “the defaults lifestyle” on the Software Defined Talk podcast. I’m forever locked out of nirvana because I have an iPhone but not a Mac, but that’s fine.

Occasionally plugins are worth the expense though. I finally discovered Argos[0] and I’m using it to show time in UTC and a couple other time zones. Super handy.

But if I try some new software and find that I have to tweak it a bunch to make it usable, that means the devs have different aesthetics and I should probably try something else.

not really. Any opponent you face in a serious tournament has played before. If he's played in major matches, you have his games to study, so he's not "helping" you.

Experiment: A plays B, in two different scenarios, one where A knows all of B's prior games, and the other where he doesn't even know it's B. in which scenario would A do better?
