> Third, you only need so many national or international level news organizations. Local news brings a of opportunity. Investment there may be worth while (I'd like to think so).

Yeah, I agree. Lots of local papers have been bought up and hollowed out by national organizations. I think there's a lot of opportunity there. Smaller & more focused is the key. One reason I don't pay for the big news outlets, and even the local big-name newspapers, is because they are owned by and employ some really disgusting people, who I don't want to financially support. The bigger you are, the more likely that is to happen. More choice of many smaller outlets means you can be choosier.

As a single example, here in the Twin Cities a handful of journalists are trying out the model at Racket[1]. They're mostly reader-funded, and because they're not doing big national stories, they don't need a shitload of subscribers or scummy ad money to keep the lights on. There's some hope to be found here.

They aren't pushing suicide videos specifically. Like most feed driven social media platforms, a video gets some engagement and it appears in the feeds of some users as a result. If it gets flagged or reported they take it down.

TikTok does actively take down content that violates their guidelines. Children are much more likely to come across nudity or porn on Twitter/Instagram.
This is a weird future.
I think this is pretty cool, but just to clarify context and ask a question... From what I understand here is that this is a directory of services which you may mount on to a system running Plan 9?

As far as I understand, Plan 9 OS was developed by Bell Labs all the way back to the 1980s with the final edition being released 2002 by the new IP holder Lucent Technologies and they've been licensed now into the public domain. It was intended as a UNIX evolution with some innovations around standardized interfaces around mounted file servers and a focus on graphics.
Right. It was not my understanding that they "planned to actually make orbit". This is why I used the same words they used, "orbital altitude".
I am really surprised at the negativity, it makes me want to stop coming here. How many here are actual engineers by profession? The default state of any novel engineering project is “not working”. Rockets are very hard among engineering projects. Failure here would look like the rocket doing nothing visible, perhaps a little bit of smoke. Neutral is the rocket exploding. Success is the rocket moving at all. The rocket actually flying and then making it to the point of attempting first stage separation is a shockingly amazing level of success for the first test run. The media should be congratulating the team and optimistically looking forward to future tests.
Listen, we don’t need to speculate. Read the History of Falcon9 development.

Your comments in this thread all go against the development approach of that rocket— Falcon9 is a stable platform now as it is used in production. In the development phase there were tons of explosions. This all happened in the past.
This is a great feature and I did use it few times to test. However, be aware of potentially leaking your company's private or sensitive information when doing this.
I dont get it. Isn't "just" simply a "friendlier make" but only for linear pipelines that could have been simple bash scripts in the first place?

> Normal use of stimulant medication is to take it regularly every day.

Yeah, that doesn't really track with the fact that non-extended release lasts about 6 hours and extended release lasts about 8. Every single doctor I have ever been to has told me to take it as needed and try to not take it if possible so I don't form a habit and build a tolerance. Doing this I've managed to stay on the same exact dose for years. I would be willing to chalk it up to doctor doing it wrong but I see people whose job is specifically to oversee ADHD patients' medication and they say the same thing.

It's technically possible to be under it's effects for your entire waking hours and overlap to smooth the comedown in the middle but it's never prescribed this way so you'll always be in a state of flux.

> and does not mirror the dosing protocol used in studies to determine long term safety [...] it creates an association between “I need to do work” and “I need more Adderall”

Both of these are absolutely true which is why the studies are silly since nobody takes stimulants this way. And I absolutely have that association but it leads me to take less not more. If I want to spend the day hyperfixating on a new video game I can and just skip it. I can wait until understimulation and executive dysfunction actually impacts me.

I know it's not what you mean but I still think "this medication is incredibly habit forming so make sure to take it habitually" is really funny.

> Pharmacies don’t generally hunt down doctors when a patient doesn’t get a refill.

It was my insurance company actually. They called my doctor to see if I was supposed to still be taking it, told him to reach out, and then called me and sent a whole informational pamphlet about why it's important to take it regularly.

"Hemedti owns, along with other family members, a gold mining company that operates in lands he seized in Darfur 2017. In 2018, Bashir gave Hemedti permission to mine and sell gold, and operations extended to other gold rich areas in outside Darfur in the south of the country. The gold was exported, according to a 2019 Reuters investigation, circumventing capital controls, and even sold to the Sudanese central bank for a preferential rate. The yield was allegedly used to enrich Hemedti and his family,"

I don't trust narratives about what people are seeing on social media without empirical data. The news media are naturally going to report the worst cases, but we don't know anything about the average case. It doesn't get as many clicks if you report on how many cool science videos kids are watching.

$100, so, $5/coffee.

That'd be extremely expensive for a normal coffee, even at 2023 prices and assuming some rip-off place like Starbucks or quite-fancy cafes that actually put some of the high price into getting excellent beans. It's unthinkably high for home-made coffee. You can get extremely nice beans and not hit $2/coffee.

$5 is close to the cost of a hot caffeinated milkshake, though.

Whether or not folks apply good practices is very much up in the air, & honestly, we have a lot to learn & relearn.

Ideally atop more sensible & aware data-store systems/caches.

Somewhat different outlook on the web myself, but in general we're still speaking the same language here & I appreciate & support this post.

There is a minor impurity in this code: `N = 1+1, rle([a,a],[[a,N]]).` succeeds, yet `rle([a,a],[[a,N]]), N = 1+1` fails. Add `:- op(150, fx, #).` and use it like `#CountPlus1 #= #Count+1` etc.

It's starting to look like the lack of flame diverter was a huge mistake that will cost a lot of money and time, how do you think this will affect the whole project? What if after they fix the launchpad, it gets destroyed again, simply because some other preventable failure? How many more of these "tests" can they have without going bankrupt?
It's a matter of expectations. No one set out with the goal of blowing up a rocket but it was very much an expected likely outcome. By clearing the launchpad, the team met their milestone. Anything beyond that is simply additional data to improve the next iteration.

I'm no fan of the SpaceX model but if it works for them and the safety of those on the ground is prioritized, it seems to work better than any other model tried here.
> In the latest experiments in mice whose hair was physically aged by plucking and forced regrowth

...

edit:

The researchers in this case decided to pluck hairs from young mice repeatedly until it started growing in grey instead of just looking at grey hairs on older lab mice.

I think with animal research there needs to be a careful balance struck between the amount of pain/harm caused to the animal and the potential good that can come from the research. Like, in animal studies that are done to try to prevent future cancer deaths, purposefully inducing cancer in lab rats is defensible.

In this case, without looking at the research paper to get more details, it sounds like they basically tortured live lab mice without a defensible reason, due to the fact that alternative methods were available.

Their methodology also makes the results less useful for the thing they were trying to research. Instead of knowing that stem cells exist but get stuck in older mammals who go grey, we instead know that if you repeatedly pluck out your own hair while you're young and then you go grey where you plucked out your hair, it's likely due to stem cells getting stuck.
I challenge your axiom that there has been an ad-fueled creative explosion. Yes, there has been an explosion in volume and perhaps in drama, but creativity specifically? Above and beyond what already existed in free, OSS, or subscription based media? A return to other models might mean less profits, fewer ultra-wealthy founders and VCs, but I'm not at all convinced that it would lead to less creativity.

It absolutely applies here - they didn't want to build the launch mount in Florida until they had actual info from a launch. They also iterate their rockets with each new one (even production rockets, ie falcon 9, gets iterative changes). The lessons from this launch will be key to informing changes before future launches.
Well this all looks incredibly cool, and certainly beyond my current understanding of graph and vector databases.

The left/right view of the political spectrum doesn’t accurately characterise politics anywhere. Almost every political party in western democracies are “liberal” in the classical sense. The only generalisation I think reliably separates left/right is the level of government intervention, in both economic and social issues, that they ideologically support. But I don’t think that translates very well into the level of intervention they end up implementing. That also doesn’t really relate very well to the actual core ideas of liberalism or conservatism. But that’s messed up everywhere. It’s only that most of the world generally pays attention to US politics.
This is what everybody asked and it was never clear why they didn't differentiate the brand more.
> Considering the fact that the RLHF for ChatGPT was done only in English but then worked just as well for every other language

Does it work just as well for every other language, or does it work acceptably well for an important subset of other languages?
In contemporary American politics, "liberal" and "authoritarian" are often overlapping categories.

The two-party system makes for all sorts of weird alliances of distinct groups getting lumped together- there's really no reason that one's opinions on gun rights should be related to one's opinions on energy policy, or why one's opinion on abortion should be related to one's opinion on foreign affairs policy, but with two parties all these separate issues get grouped into two camps associated with either "Republican" or "Democrat" and then in turn everything "Republican" can also be called "Conservative" or "Right-Wing" and everything "Democrat" can also be called "Liberal" or "Left-Wing".

Using some academic definition of what "liberal" or "right-wing" or whatever meant in Europe in the 1890s or 1930s doesn't really work in popular English-language media today.

1. C compilers don't do a good job, & thus even CPython, which has historically stuck to rather vanilla C, uses computed goto, as described in https://eli.thegreenplace.net/2012/07/12/computed-goto-for-e...

I resorted to similar techniques in optimizing Befunge: https://github.com/serprex/Befunge (See bejit.c & marsh.c/marsh.h)

2. Rust enums are not variable sized, think of them as tagged C unions, where the Rust compiler can sometimes apply tricks, for example making Option<Vec<T>> the same size as Vec<T>

I used it to transform cryptic credit card statement items into company names, which then allowed me to query my Gmail archives for receipts and invoices from these vendors, automating a manual process of accounting backup discovery that is the bane of my very existence.

The person I replied to was making the case that NASA can't take risks because they develop in the open whereas private companies can develop in hiding, so they can take more risks.

But a quick glance on reddit, nasaspaceflight, and youtube tells me that SpaceX is very much developing in the open, and to a greater extent than NASA.

Which means that there is some other reason why SpaceX feels more free to take risks than NASA.

In contrast, Blue Origin is famous for not disclosing almost any information to the public. For a long time Tory Bruno, the CEO of ULA, was the one providing the most public information on Blue Origin's BE-4 engines.
