We aren’t supposed to ask direct questions on here, but you “get” that a company charges 20% of each of the past 5 years, right?

Like, we agree that’s what depreciation/amortization is, right?

So this most affects companies that have a relatively large R&D org relative to the past few years (aka my point about growing R&D ahead of other functions).
>>every other "reply" is an ad for a product completely unrelated to whatever tweet it's replying to.

I find that very ironic. For years I have seen people complain about "target ads" and companies like twitter spying on everyone.

Now if they are not targeted some how that is also bad...

Amazing....

Though I will say I have seen a dozen HPE GreenLake ads on twitter and still have no idea what they are trying to sell me...

>> instead a slow degradation of quality (ironic given that twitter is being marketed as the "#1 most accurate source of information on the internet") The top tweet under every "More Tweets" section is always a childish Musk tweet with a 420 or 69 reference in it

These are not mutually exclusive... I find new twitter to be very informative and entertaining

If you have a sufficient strong source that pushes, yes you can blow things up.

That's true of light too.

Not just shining in a weak source indefinitely. You need a powerful source. Just like with electricity or fluids.

I hope it helps them. At my company, there were efforts to compartmentalize our web application to make it more scalable for adding more features inside it. I left before I saw this effort in action, but the principles it was based on were solid. I believe some applications could be compartmentalized so that adding more features/teams would bring more value (without making it worse) however, I might be wrong.
I can imagine Unicorn Research Inc deciding to rename all “developer” titles to “programmer” titles, and removing the word “Research” from the company name.

Twitter already proved this isn't the case over the last 10 years.
Except that’s not what’s going on because they pay millions or more in busting fees and staff ?

And what accounts are those?

My wife and I had a recent bad experience on SouthWest, where we boarded the plane at Love Field in Dallas and then were made to wait 2.5 hours on the tarmac, because their IT system had a different passenger count than what the crew counted. After several attempts at counting again, they ended up having to go to each passenger row by row with a manifest in hand, and verify the passenger boarding pass and driver's license. I think aside from their IT system problems, this situation was made worse because as a passenger you don't have an assigned seat, so it's not obvious when someone is missing or a seat has two or more contending passengers.
> Starboard is presumably where the wheel was

Not the wheel, but (as this article also says) the steering oar. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steering_oar:

“The steering oar or steering board is an over-sized oar or board, to control the direction of a ship or other watercraft prior to the invention of the rudder.“

But anyways, how many people died from the wildfires started by power lines?

Certainly fewer than succumb to natural gas related causes. Nationwide somewhere around 15 people die annually from pipeline related incidents, over 400 from carbon monoxide poisoning. Safety with electrical stuff marches forward. Fault (ground, arc) interrupters, fused plugs, polarized and grounded receptacles. Safety with gas handling has basically stagnated and we can't even get gas powered appliances to not leak gas.

California's got a long history of safety problems with natural gas:

Because left and right are ambiguous - are you talking about MY left or the boat’s left? Having unambiguous names let’s us differentiate and avoid confusion.

It might be hard to grok the need for this if you’ve never been in a tight spot while sailing or operating a watercraft with a crew - but having this distinction has probably saved thousands of bad incidents from happening.

Whatever you do, focus on a deep specialization. Find something you really love then become a profound expert in it. Education is absolutely critical in a world where you are either telling machines what to do or being told what to do by a machine.
Which just ends up with corporate accountants structuring the books to minimize "profit".

I for one can't find it in me to get all that upset about startups paying their fair share of taxes instead of artificially inflating salaries to consume all of their "revenue", thereby hoarding talent away from the labor pool that would likely better serve the country as a whole by working in... really anything besides risky chronically unprofitable startups.

Remember when Netflix wanted to spin off their DVD service into a standalone company? Before the internet bullied them into cancelling their plans?

Well, it turns out they were right. A standalone DVD by mail service with it's own name might have actually been able to hold on. It was a good service that died in the shade of Netflix's brand.

As it is, I miss being able to just watch whatever I want and not being locked into Netflix's dire content library. Want to make it through the Best Pictures nominees? Good luck without having 6 different streaming services.
When Google search became important, people structured their information so that Google could best index it. When AIs become important in the same way, people will start to structure their information so that a particular class of AI can best index it. If that involves API documentation, perhaps there will be a standard format that AIs understand the best.
Inverting this is actually better because it avoids the stale data / herd behavior. i.e. randomly choose X candidate servers and then pick the one with least load. also, 2 may be better than 3

If it wasn't done by accident, then it was likely lobbied for by bigger tech companies that are already profitable. They stand to benefit the most from this kind of legislation by destroying all the small competition, and by being able to buy them up for cheap.
That means you can upsell them after they deploy. Have the bot read back the formalized updates to confirm if you want more accuracy.

It's not the only one. Dogecoin, for example. I do not mean to defend Dogecoin or lend it any legitimacy. But it clearly does not meet the criteria for a security as it was simply a very early fork of Bitcoin where some zeros were added and "Bit" was replaced with "Doge."
Example of this is that one of these recordings, listed as "Kmart 1973 Reel To Reel" has an address of 3020 East Grand Blvd in Detroit. Motown's original studio was on West Grand Blvd. It's intriguing to consider who the voice talent was, and what if any crossover there was during those days.

Googling the address shows that the former recording studio is now a residence.
It would have ended because the Industrial Revolution made slave labor un-economic, in the worst case.

Modern capitalists prefer seasonal labor for agriculture. They don't have to feed/clothe/house people year round, and have no personal investment. Seasonal migrant agriculture labor cheap and easily exploited, with little legal protection. Slaves, like domestic a nimals (reprehensible as that simily is), must be treated well enough to keep working productively. There is no such need with migrant labor. If they are abused or killed it is easy to sweep under the rug. There'll be new migrants available next year.

NOTE: I'm not saying slavery is good, or even better than migrant labor. They are both highly unethical if you consider how corporations treat migrant labor today.

Using a lower-capacity plane is still less of an issue for SWA than other airlines since they also don’t do assigned seating so they can bump a portion of the booked tickets rather than all of them. Although are you sure about the fewer seats on some planes things? I remember having identical planes for all flights being a central part of their business plan last time I had read about this. I can’t imagine them getting any benefit out of having 737s with different seating capacities.
I hope not.

It's truly incredible how we as humans can exist in the same world but have entirely different experiences. I never had the issues you listed in Linux, and my experience has been mostly stable (not saying no bugs, all software has bugs in 2023). But, oh my god, the few times I used Windows, I was continuously tortured by the unbelievable instability. On my Thinkpad X1 Carbon, Windows still displays the wrong time with Google searches leading to no solution. I used Windows for very specific reasons and I was hit with "hooly crap never fucking again". Now, if I need to use a program that doesn't work in WINE, I just explain to the person "I'm unable to do that because I have no interest in working with Windows". Recently, the US tax CPA I'm working with asked me to use a program to sign something that only works in Windows. After telling that, they insisted I must otherwise they can't file my taxes, so I had to say "no, I'm unable to use Windows, I have no access to it", so they found another way to do it.

It boggles my mind how someone can have the opposite experience.
Depends. If someone seduces a doctor (see the trial of Conrad Murray who was Michael Jackson's propofil fixer who was in deep shit to multiple strippers for one night stand child support) for 20% you could take away 40k tax free and move to a quaint midwest town and come out quite ahead. Also if you're poor as dirt and just feed the kids rice and lentils and rely on (now increased) benefits and public institutions for everything else you can come ahead too. Whether this has anything to do with high fertility rates at the low income bands is up for interpretation.
Per the halting problem, it would be impossible to say if this was merely time shifting and thus fair use. (Not counting the DeCSS step, since access control circumvention is explicitly prohibited by the DMCA, although I’m not sure of the current status of that law.)
Directive 2002/58/EC applies to any "hidden information" stored on users' computers. It's irrelevant whether you use cookies or localStorage or IndexedDB. Regardless of what you use to store data on the user's computer, you have to "ensure that users are made aware of information being placed on the terminal equipment", and users must "have the opportunity to refuse to have a cookie or similar device stored on their terminal equipment."

However, the ICO has suggested that saying "I refuse to allow any cookies on my computer" could be taken as implied consent to allow a cookie stating such.
Ask HN: What would you use to deploy an SPA to production on AWS today?
For organizational reasons, has to be AWS. How would you deploy an SPA in a production-ready way today?

Nice-to-haves would be:
- scale-to-0 or serverless because of irregular traffic to save costs
- easy to configure CI (add unit tests, e2e tests sometime, run lint and unit test on PRs)
- multiple environments (dev, qa, prod)
- multiple pages (react router but could change that)
- still can be seo-crawled

So far looked at amplify, ecs with github actions, moving to one of the ssr frameworks
Arch Linux is a great choice for someone who wants to know Linux. I am writing this comment from Arch Linux.

Arch Linux is not a great choice for someone who just wants to use Linux. There's a lot of learning just to install it, while less expert-oriented distributions can have a system up and running in 20 minutes with very little expertise on the part of the user.
I have one of these stuck on my phone that I listen to occasionally and I giggle a lot when they mention their lifestyle consultant Martha Stewart.

I understand what this topic is about; the App Store is an unavoidable interface that I have to regularly interact with.

I would love it if Apple provided an alternate method to install and update apps on iOS that didn’t involve the App Store.

The relative intrusiveness of start menu ads is, for me, much lower than the App Store ads, as the start menu ads (and its connectivity to the web in general) can easily be toggled off.

Do you own a car? Commonly when speaking with a mechanic they'll ask questions like Driver's side or Passenger's side to get away from left/right.

People very often describe things with just _left_ or just _right_. They don't say things like when I'm sitting in the car the door to my left is hard to open. They just say the left door is broken even when both them and the mechanic are facing the car head on.

By having people use an unambiguous vocabulary it makes up for people not thinking about how their statements will be interpreted. If the deckhands were genius's they're be charting the course not heaving rope.

At your age, I'd be a generalist and do as much exploring and learning as you are able. After you have plenty of experience, then examine specializing more.

Me, I'm 50 and have been a generalist all my life. People have told me all my life to specialize but I didn’t ever listen.

It's fun, and I never get bored with it. And I've been in the game long enough that I could probably be considered a "specialist" in many different areas. I generally have a better cross-system understanding of things than most.

This somewhat reminds me of the Twitter APIpocalypse from a decade ago, which the article forgot to mention...
I can see it as advantageous. With the major caveat that it is only advantageous to folks that have been taught it. Not shockingly, a large portion of the passengers on a boat are going to be confused if told to go to the starboard windows to see the whales that are beside the boat. How will you explain it? I'm going to guess that you will probably say "right." :D. (Note that this isn't hypothetical. I take a ferry fairly often, and surprisingly few of us know starboard from port.)
This would be a super cool change... Just the blocks coming from behind and knocking away the old numbers.

Honestly, I think Safari doesn't get enough _hate_. It's the last browser that's not evergreen and tied to operating system updates. That's the biggest pain point as a developer when trying to support Safari.

Instead of having to support the last 5 versions of the browser you have to go back and support versions that are YEARS out of date regarding web standards and implementations, so even when Safari does add an upcoming feature you have to wait a few years before all users actually update their macOS to get these new features.

A quick example I just grabbed is AVIF support [0]. Safari has technically already added full support for this image encoding, the problem however is that you NEED to be on macOS 13 for even partial support, and full support only appeared later. If you look at the usage statistics at [0] you'll see that most Safari users are still not on the newer versions. It's even worse on iOS regarding some things, where even mundane features for Flexbox might not be available bug-free to all your users.

Rant over.

It doesn't seem to be about self-incrimination.

The way I understand it, they don't accuse him of being a terrorist, they are accusing him of having information about terrorists and refusing to release them. To follow your analogy, the police doesn't think you are the murderer, but they believe you know the location of the bodies and accuse you of covering for the murderer.
Your argument is riddled with strawmen. Eugenics is clearly helpful if you have a strategy selected (breeding for intelligence, strength, etc) and is witnessed in horse breeding, dog breeding, etc, and why top dollar is paid for the offspring of prize winning horses when they are studded out. You should instead attempt to make a compelling argument how it does not apply to humans. That would be worth reading, instead of strawman arguments.
I guess what I'm trying to say is that you can pick anything to fall under the umbrella that you want and one of two things will be true; it will happen almost entirely in the brain, or it will also apply to a thermostat/ChatGPT, which means it certainly can't be used to agree with the article above.

If we're making specific and unqualified claims about the possibility of "intellegence" without a "body", which is what this thread is about, then there is some working definition at play. I think that under the working definition the article implicitly uses, their argument is extremely dumb. You can pick any definition you want- I certainly can't stop you! But as long as we're arguing about what is and isn't possible without being "embodied", it really doesn't matter. If your definition of cognition is even broader than mine, you should be even less confident that the random researchers the NYT interviewed have correctly identified the exact conditions under which it is possible.
