The fundamental difference is animals are mostly controlled by nature. Humans have the ability to use their intellect to override their natural urges when prudent.

Second, animals are rarely at the top of the food chain, so they are structured for self-protection first and foremost. This means group dynamics rule over any individual needs. Each animal is expected to do its role in the group, no question of what’s “fair”.

Third, inability to communicate and find treatment when sick. When hurt or sick, they mostly just lay down and slowly fade away. How difficult would it be for us to face death in that way?
> Also, how presumptuous of you to assume I’m cis. Be better.

What I said:

> I'm assuming you haven't seen people struggling with discrimination, especially trans people in conservative cities

is only presuming exactly what I said, not even presuming that you're not trans, because that (on its own) is actually besides the point.

In the interest of keeping this more in the spirit with the HN conversation guidelines, I'll just say that I'd appreciate if you engaged with what I actually said instead of deflecting.
Clearly ... presumably with Taiwan in the background. I don't think the Chinese much care about these territories or Russia's announced, preferred, status except what it means for them domestically again Taiwan.

Surely it's occured to them that maybe Britain wants HK back cause, you know, things are not clear. Not that the British would be that dumb --- but it's an argument that cuts multiple ways none good.

Finally,you gotta believe china sees Russia currently as a giant baby sitting project well considering how that plays well for china.
I'm building a startup in this space between prompting and crafting agents, but for me using lang chain to create vector embeddings to enhance an LLMs memory and context is a core skill a prompt engineer should have.

I've already considered myself a prompt engineer instead of a software engineer, because I've been coding 15 years and now 80 percent of the code is generated for me, so I really don't think I'm ever going to want to go back to engineering without the aid of ai.

If you're a software engineer and you use chatGPT to help you code, you've switched careers from software to prompting.
Yes, but the remnants of OO still linger, both in people's minds and code.
I feel like the word sovereignty is a bit odd in the modern world. Classically I believe it meant that a nation (etc) could stand alone and defend itself against reasonable (i.e. non suicidal) encroachments from its neighbors, and therefore it had sole discretion over policies within its borders. I think that is pretty clearly not the case today for most “sovereign” nations today? I wonder why the word took on a different meaning? Is it just rude to call someone a vassal state these days?

You are shifting the topic. It is not taking away someone's freedom to charge them different amounts of interest depending on how likely they are to repay a loan, or to not issue loans if they are unlikely to repay. They still possess the freedom to pay for it themselves.

I'm not sure what sort of model you used to arrive at this vague estimate, but:

Even if you assume AGW science is completely wrong and the effect is zero, humans have to move from fossil fuels to renewables/nuclear in that timeframe anyway, because we have 47 years of oil left. Whether it's 20 years or 80 years, still needs to happen.

> My question is why in 2023 isn’t there some better efforts to at least bring third party support for the various FSes to the various OSes?

From the FS rather than the OS side, but I feel like support is pretty good?

ZFS supports all the big ones and many smaller options - Windows, Mac, Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD, illumos (albeit with some slight incompatibilities depending on enabled features). The only OS that I kind of miss it on is OpenBSD.

BTRFS is, I grant, behind in this aspect, but it still has Windows and Linux, which is... a start, at least.

IME the parental instincts associated with children do not simulate well, at least in men (can’t speak for women). I did not like children at all, and thinking about children did not trigger any instinctive feelings. Once I had my own then the instincts turned on. The human system is quite good at producing chemical rewards for certain behaviors.
Well, we're heading for a future where no one programs and everyone just prompts chatgpt. So it seems the future of programming languages is no more programming languages.

Well you can think about it in a scientific way. Sometimes scientists do experiments that show evidence against the common beliefs of their time. If you are OK with analogies, when the Michelson-Morley experiment showed evidence against the idea of luminiferous ether, scientists began more seriously considering theories about how light can propagate in space without requiring an ether! Maybe the evidence in this article similarly suggests that scientists of our own time should revisit explanations of the phenomena of the mind.
if crdb had some kind of perpetual fallback license like Jetbrains then I would be far happier with the prospect of eventually switching to crdb as an option. But "contact us" pricing is not exactly unscary pricing. If you think about it, even the infamously opaque Microsoft SQLServer has a pricing table nowadays.
Therefore I tried to calculate some kind of pricing comparison, I'm looking at the cpu alone now. I'm seeing that they ask for $0.46/h for m5.large and $6.34/h for their m5.8xlarge (managed dedicated offering)
Using the aws price calculator and selecting these instance types directly it would cost x4 less to rent the aws instances directly. Paying 4 times your raw server cost for licensing is not exactly a dream come true.

but scylladb really has so many weird footguns. I just discovered that you can't even query for NULL values. It just doesn't work, they have no support for WHERE x = NULL even with an index. That's crazy to me, if I ever make a mistake and have a few NULL'ed values then I can't even find them again so I can set them to an empty string to make them queryable.
I just don't know, I almost feel like scylladb has too many tradeoffs.
Any changes in waveforms that are not smooth can cause percussive sounds (that's what percussions are). Playing audio suddenly causes a pop, and changing audio levels abruptly causes a weird zipper sound (the sound of a thousand MIDI drums playing in a few milliseconds).

The reasons are very interesting: your brain does a Fourier Transform (sort of) in real time to listen to audio. It allows you to separate two people or two instruments producing sounds at the same time, and abrupt changes will cause this transform to product artefacts.

The right way of doing it is to always make progressive changes to the gain level. This property is often used in audio engineering to "add or remove punch" in recordings: you can decrease the attack level to make the gain changes more aggressive and add punch, or lower it to make it smoother, over do it and it sounds muffled. In more concrete words: use the setTargetAtTime WebAudio API.

The argument I’ve heard is that with more demand for meat comes more clearing of forested land that’s turned into pasture. So instead of storing atmospheric carbon long term in trees, you take much of the carbon absorbed by the grass and release it right back.

I'd wager the unemployment rate among transwomen in Chattanooga is higher.

I think in the U.S. in general trans people have double the unemployment rates of cis people. I imagine that's higher in Chattanooga, and higher again for transwomen, but I couldn't find any studies here so let's just agree that 3.3% likely is not indicative of the unemployment rates of specific marginalized groups.

Significant portion of population will always act against status quo even if the data is accurate to the T. Something about “don’t let perfect be enemy of the good” heavily applies to climate modeling, in my opinion. Worst case scenario, we convert to better sources of power through a ton of investment, and make general populace’s life “cleaner” anyways.

> Some people can't memorize times tables

Well, perhaps then schools need to be fixed? Memorization is a skill like anything else, and it can be trained via a variety of ways (memory palaces, mnemonics, writing stuff down by hand).

If a student can't remember ~20 non-trivial entries in the multiplication table, then they likely will struggle with anything else non-trivial.

> There's some value in finding an approach that works for everyone as an educator instead of one that works for Most if you can do that, I think.

There are trade-offs everywhere. The lattice method simplifies bookkeeping on paper, but try to visualize it for mental math and you'll likely fail. While the classic textbook algorithm is fairly easy to do.

So the lattice method is optimized for a use-case that never really matters in practice: being able to multiply numbers on a piece of paper, while not having access to a calculator. While it's pessimized for a use-case that actually matters once in a while: pure mental math.
Looks like there’s nothing here except a half-baked website?
You're right there. It's amusing to me because I suspect it is difficult or impossible to meaningfully define "obvious". In my head, it matches "cryptozoology", where the "crypto" denotation kind of includes "pseudoscience".

But also "hidden shape" has a loose implication of "hidden equivalent shape".
A society that elects to apply an existing term to cases in which it doesn't quite fit indicates the society is linguistically bankrupt. I'd argue that, instead of calling every profession "engineering" we ought to come up with more precise distinctions and designations.

Let's be honest, the main reason so many people glom on to the term "engineer" is because (as others have mentioned) the rigorous processes around licensing for other engineering disciplines keeps supply low, which attaches an inherent market value to the term. People then adopt the term without justification in the hope if nets them a pay raise. We ought to accept that it's OK not to be an engineer. Other professions are also valuable. It's also important to "gatekeep" meanings of words to a certain extent lest we think it wise to accept a language in which any word can mean anything.
On at least one of my cousin's farm fields, there's a single phase induction motor connected to a 3-phase alternator out on the power line pole across the dirt road from the field, to provide 3-phase power where there's only single-phase service. It's not crazy.

(I think perhaps his irrigation pivot needs 3-phase power. I'm pretty sure all of his well pumps are run by de-tuned automotive engines converted to run on natural gas.)

"Multi-Tenant SaaS" to me very clearly sounds like there are features specific towards isolating the database into different customer domains ("tenants").

Fun fact: This is the reason google pivoted to the web, after being blocked as an alternative office suite on Windows.

Only because Microsoft can't keep their shit together.

Apple is more complicated, because despite the absolute control they've established (no other browser engine / JIT compiler process allowed for whatever made up reasons) they did not face the European courts that forced Microsoft for the exact same thing to allow to install other Browsers.

And now we are stuck with Safari, repeating the loop, because Apple can't keep their shit together.
How long of a notice period is considered reasonable probably varies drastically between different countries, different industries, etc. So the advice should largely be just do what is the norm in your environment to avoid burning bridges.

I have only worked for FAANGs and other big pre-IPO startups in the west coast for the past 15 years. I have quit like 5 times now and I have always offered only a 2 weeks notice. That is considered normal in these places. I have never burned bridges (I have gone back to work for the same company with the same people even).

We barely know anything about the brain. We don't know how consciousness arises from a collection of neurons. So talk therapy is the best we've got. Sure, pay a sex worker for an hour so you've got 59 minutes to talk about your loneliness with, after you finish having sex with her if you'd rather talk to a woman you paid to have sex with instead of a licensed and trained professional listen to you. (And to be fair some sex workers are actually really great therapists due to what their profession involves.)

But you be real. Women don't have the same epidemic of loneliness as men because they talk to each other. Talking about your loneliness and isolation helps address the problem. Sulking at home and jeering at people who go to years of school to learn how to help people address problems in their lives, (and then gasp charge money for goods and services under capitalism) is a very counterproductive viewpoint.
Afghanistan is a relatively poor, undeveloped country, yet they just demonstrated their sovereignty in your sense against the most capable country on earth. Of course, if the US wanted to they could have steamrolled afghanistan - but they didn't. What changed is that the willingness to destroy people in war evaporated, and so the ability in theory to conquer a country, and the willingness to do so given the costs it would entail diverged significantly. This might be particular to the west, and countries like china or russia don't care as much. But they are living in the world created by US hegemony, which in large part entails playing by the US' rules.

Every US state has an either its own health insurance marketplace or you access the federal one. You get access to it as soon as you’re no longer otherwise covered.

The cost may be high unless you qualify for a subsidy (as post grads might unless they’re paid unusually well).

During workouts internet connection is only through bluetooth to the companion app and by this somewhat regulated, but for updates, offline music storage and the like most also have wifi.

Tangent: that bluetooth uplink comes with some bewildering differences for those monkeyC apps, e.g. a request started to be consumed as json will happily talk to localhost on the companion app's host. A request started to consume a navigation itinerary will also do, except when the host isn't on the internet, then it fails to read localhost.
It's not about ability though, they can do all that and some more. It's about focus, they're so large, they might not focus and react and change quick enough like the smaller players with inferior technology might.
