Well there is nothing inherently bad about shrinking or smaller populations, they do pose significant challenges to the current social and economic models, which are based on growth and large working age populations.

Lower Workforce participation means people working more For Less personal reward. It also requires a transition away from using that too fund governmental function. Most governments use GDP growth and a higher future tax base to negate the fact that spend more than they receive.

In terms of impact to real people, this means adjusting to life with less material wealth. This doesn't just mean fewer trinkets, but also cuts to social Healthcare and welfare spending
If you need to speak about averages, doesn't that imply a net loss? Unless the average is overwhelmingly made up of folk with college degrees, which I don't believe holds water.
Severance was great! I watched For All Mankind and Foundation, which both had great production values but were hurt by cheesy storytelling and sometimes iffy acting.

The difference is due to US transitioning to shale oil. Current known deposits are effectively infinite.

Look at planned capital investments for fossil fuel energy. Especially power generation. It needs to be zero, yet the industry (and finance) is still full steam ahead.
With all due respect, there is a Japan outside of Tokyo, you know. Japan does not have a problem with population density, Tokyo does, and there are reasons for it.
> Tesla’s number give a very incorrect impression — so incorrect that it is baffling why they publish them when this has been pointed out many times by many writers and researchers.

It isn't baffling, it's completely in character. Bullshitting is standard operating procedure for Tesla. It's simply the nature of the company.

For example, Musk recently proclaimed "FSD soon!": https://insideevs.com/news/663396/elon-musk-tesla-fsd-potent...

And that's not new: https://jalopnik.com/elon-musk-promises-full-self-driving-ne...

In 2016 Tesla claimed that all Tesla cars being produced "have the hardware needed for full self-driving capability at a safety level substantially greater than that of a human driver". That was a lie too: https://www.tesla.com/blog/all-tesla-cars-being-produced-now...

Tesla will keep lying until the lies stop working, but there do indeed appear to be suckers born every minute.
Those who eat cow won't oppose leather, so I don't see why there would be more unused disposed cow skin than prior. But on the question of what else could be done with it, I'm not sure. Are people more often opting for plastic/synthetic products owing to cost? There are lots of aesthetic and apparel applications for leather.
That is because 6 is a priomorial. For any primorial p', k*p' +/- 1 will result in a number relatively prime to p', some of which are absolute primes.

The key to understanding primes is in relative primes and reduced residue sets. All patterns in (higher) primes (absolute) are generated by the members of RRS of smaller primes. This includes the clusters, such as twins, triple, quadruple, ..., primes. RRSs also hint [imo] at intimate connection between complex numbers and primes.

Maybe it depends on the country? The shelves in metal IVAR cupboards still use metal clips here in France and Belgium. The shelves for the wooden racks are held by metal brackets and metal bars (I don't use the cupboards mounted to the wooden racks, they are just standing on the ground. I haven't used corner pieces either).

I would expect wire metal shelving to be much cheaper than what you can find at Ikea of course, but also quite flimsy.

Now I'm no Ikea salesman but I always fail to understand what I read on HN (or other US-centric social media sites, as far as I can tell?) when the topic of Ikea comes around.
Couldn't, in theory, Microsoft acquire a newly formed subsidary that is US based that owns Activision and its properties, also legally moved to the US, there by circumventing this?

Basically, Activision would lease its UK IPs to the newly founded company, maintaining access (with extra steps I imagine, never the less), and Activision UK would technically be a separate entity
Agreed. It's a bit ridiculous to pull a qualifications list from a college that's declared purpose since before 1900 has been mass education, irrespective of sex, race, religion, or ethnic background.

That and one of the great benefits of Netflix was that you could watch multiple seasons of a show, and that a season was 20 ish episodes.

Now they do 7 episodes and call it a season and frequently their shows only have one or two seasons.
Which is fine. But what is more applicable here would be the median for tech, which $150k is still over that.

You mean except the clickbait in the title?

1) War propaganda numbers about both losses and those who fled the country. These numbers are published by Ukraine and uncritically relayed by western media (with a tiny disclaimer "we are not able to independently verify this data"). Many neutral parties (Mossad, etc) have published drastically different numbers

2) Emotional takes (can't resist that sweet Hitler invocation, understandable). Not an inaccuracy per se but still wouldn't expect that from a supposedly reputable newspaper behind a paywall

3) Easily verifiable lies (male life expectancy compared to Haiti's)
And what about causality? People who go to college are likely the smartest, wealthiest, and best supported people to begin with. How do you find a matched control group of people who didn’t go to college but who could have? What were their outcomes in life?

I think college is overrated. By all means, go to college if you’d like to learn at the highest level academically. But also consider not going to college and achieving great things without burning 4-5 years of opportunity cost.

Many institutions allow you to issue yourself a digital card via your online banking/mobile app. You can turn it off whenever you want. I have digital cards for all my subscriptions in the event I have the problem you had. The digital cards all tie back to your physical one, but it allows you to give a different card number to the vendor that is not your actual plastic card number.
Bronze Script
Is sharing someone's private location information on the internet illegal[0] or immoral? Because it is just linking to their home address, it isn't harming or doing anything physically to the person. There are obvious examples that demonstrate this type of slippery slope argument is equivocation on some level, linking to something can be seen as an invitation for people to copy it and violate copyright.

[0] The answer at least in the US is the act itself is likely not illegal although it can be construed to lead to a crime, such as incitement.

Article from 2020. There are something like 2.5x more Teslas on the road now than there were then. Needless to say the promised safety evidence never arrived. As far as anyone can tell then, and can tell now, the cars are in fact very safe.

This is all so tiresome at this point.
It's tough because everything is a subscription now. In the early days of steaming products like Netflix was great because you had access to so much for a small price. Now subscriptions services are so granular so you really have to pick and choose.
I once was a customer of a DC who's roof drainage was clogged, turning it into a lake after a couple of rain storms. It then proceeded to rain inside the DC as the roof started to leak from all the pressure.

"Servers are down, I'll head over to the DC" turned into "Um... it's raining _in the DC_. Get me some tarps and get us cut over to the backup in the office".

Ah, the glory days of running out of a single co-lo across the parking lot with our "backup site" being a former broom closet.

Why do you wonder that? Because if brain structure is shaped by environment then it tells us nothing. If it’s not shaped by environment and brain structure is a fundamental biological difference then it provides some signal.
The article could be summarize as "Tesla used airbag deployment rate as accident rate. Airbags are mostly deployed in highway accidents so this is not a good metric. Tesla should release the raw data. FSD is bad."

So many words for nothing we don't already know about.

Also a bit ironic that the picture the author chose for highlighting FSD crashes didn't happen on a freeway.
"Walmart has a lot of store manager/assistant managers that do quite well with high school diplomas or GEDs. Smart motivated people also do well starting businesses or working in trades. The incessant narrative that a college degree as the path to prosperity is tired and worn and rightly perceived as bogus imo."

I am both a graduate school and high school dropout. A motivated individual could replace university with a library and Internet connection. However, proving one's knowledge can be more difficult than acquiring it. A degree makes it easier to communicate and demonstrate skill.
“Anti-racism” specifically is the most racist idea ever. The guy who coined it (Kendi) regularly says that current racism is the only way to make up for past racism.

“The only remedy to racist discrimination is antiracist discrimination. The only remedy to past discrimination is present discrimination. The only remedy to present discrimination is future discrimination.” -Kendi

So yeah if being anti-woke means you don’t want to participate in a culture of hateful discrimination, then yeah anti-woke sounds normal here.
I feel like these analysis don't take into account how societies change. Past performance is not entirely predictors of future gains. Especially when talking about 40 year windows. People who participate in these experiments, probably started their education in 1970s/early 80s. They were probably born in late 60s/early 70s. Can someone, with a straight face, tell me society is remotely similar today than it was then?
That's just ridiculous.

AWS, for comparison:

> AZs make partitioning applications for high availability easy. If an application is partitioned across AZs, companies are better isolated and protected from issues such as power outages, lightning strikes, tornadoes, earthquakes, and more. AZs are physically separated by a meaningful distance, many kilometers, from any other AZ, although all are within 100 km (60 miles) of each other.
> some creative input, which does not have to be extensive at all.

The US copyright office's statement suggests otherwise:

> when an AI technology
receives solely a prompt from a human and produces complex written, visual, or musical
works in response, the “traditional elements of authorship” are determined and executed
by the technology—not the human user. Based on the Office’s understanding of the
generative AI technologies currently available, users do not exercise ultimate creative
control over how such systems interpret prompts and generate material. Instead, these
prompts function more like instructions to a commissioned artist—they identify what the
prompter wishes to have depicted, but the machine determines how those instructions are
implemented in its output.

Obviously one could draw a parallel to someone painting using a spray can - where the individual droplets of ink land are mostly a matter of physics, so there is no creative control there. The human simply directs the can to give the general direction of where the ink should be put.

A line must be drawn between these two cases, but it is unclear where it is.

My reading was that the AI generated elements themselves are considered not copyrightable at this time. The additions might be considered copyrightable by themselves.

Did you have eg. a more recent court ruling that overrides this? (you might have been thinking of the monkey selfie case, which predates this). Or do you think I'm misreading?
Isn't $150k the standard number for the common top end grade? They make adjustments based on location for COL. So it could be more there. Even so, the majority of developers live outside of SV where even the $150k number is attractive (given the national dev median is around $110k).
My situation exactly. We're sharing a 4 screen account with 3 friends and no-one even watches netflix every month - we just liked the idea of having access, in case we want to watch something. We already decided, when netflix doesn't allow low-use sharing any more, we'll just cancel and forget about it.
I'm in the UK. I wanted to watch the recent Masters golf tournament and it turns out it was on Sky Sports. They also had a deal for six months subscription at ~GBP18/month on a month to month streaming only contract. Fine I thought, I also enjoy F1 and 20/20 Cricket, I guess that's reasonable value for three sports I have a passing interest in.

Upon reaching the checkout it turns out I needed to pay another GBP6.99/month for something called "Boost" to allow me to watch in 1080p.

I gave up.
It's more like a 1000 character password that can only be extracted or transferred to other devices via methods provided by the developer of the software vault. The purpose is lock-in, not security.

If the industry is in its death spiral, it makes sense to hold on to subscribers with reputation destroying practices for as long as possible.
Hallowe'en is, of course, a very sacred night to Christians, and it also marks the most important turning point in the last 500 years: Martin Luther's protest against Rome. So naturally there is a concerted effort to twist it into a display of demonic influence and immorality.

Americans are mostly ignorant of Pope Night, but some have heard of Guy Fawkes. Pope Night was Guy Fawkes Night imported to early America. Anti-Catholics would raise funds, take to the streets, and wreak havoc against anything in their way. George Washington himself finally abolished Pope Night, because he noticed that it annoyed the Canadians quite a bit, and Canada was a valuable ally (not to mention American Catholics as well) so he told all the Brit-Protties to knock it the hell off. So Guy Fawkes stayed in the UK and continues to burn every year, on schedule.

There are a few inconsistencies between modern browsers left, but in my day-to-day so far the fixes have been quick and straightforward.

The only exception is 100vw and 100vh. On desktop, building an “app” that fills the screen with a header on top and a footer on bottom, this works great. On some mobile browsers, it places the footer below the browsers navbar because the navbar is not subtracted from the pages height.

I’ve had a heck of a time working around this in css, particularly because the fix for mobile seems to break desktop chrome.

But compared to even a decade ago, this is nirvana.
Sounds tragic.

They went from promoting equality for a hundred years to promoting fashionable anti-Asian racism and misandry.

I keep hearing horror stories about Tesla vehicles and I'm amazed that they're allowed on public roads (in the U.S.) with what appears to be alpha-level software. I appreciate that the FSD mode is only to be used with the driver constantly monitoring and being aware, but that's an unrealistic expectation of people, not to mention a strange interpretation of "full self-driving".
A little understand would give you why certain prompts work or don’t work. A high level should do. It could help you make better prompts or trouble shoot, although you don’t need it for 80% of the cases
> How do you expect them to be ok with >100ms ping and dropped packets?

You don't. Cloud gaming is not aimed at those people. People like that, who want to compete at higher levels(that includes me) will not play in cloud competetively. But 99,9% other gamers won't care if the tech gets to sub 100ms delay. That's an insanely big market. You could just run any game you want, without worrying about your PC/console specs, there's huge value in that.
I don’t understand why Microsoft doesn’t build up their exclusive library the way Sony does. Yes, it’s riskier but so what. Sony could do it. Microsoft definitely has the money to do it.

Not to mention making former multi-platform franchises exclusive to their machines just makes everyone who isn’t in their camp hate them.
That simply isn’t true.
But would Japan be Japan when Japanese culture is replaced by an admixture of foreign cultures? People are attracted to Japan because of the uniqueness of their culture --like Tibet. One of the arguments against the annexation of Tibet by China is that it would dilute Tibetan culture and be replaced by Han culture, else that argument is moot and Tibetans are better off with the lesser dictatorship of the CCP over the theocracy of a Dalai Lama.

One of the disgraceful things when traveling abroad is the "ghettoes" where all you see are foreign retirees, ex-pats and other "nomads" where local culture is replaced and a new culture emerges to cater to this new influx in order to extract commercial benefit. So the Spanish Riviera, Thai beaches, Dubai, (also in FL who cater to Spring Break, for example

It's the cultural equivalent to the Strip Mall. In the US and Canada lots of towns have the similar feel because they have the common thread of national and regional chains which mimic national chains. This is something most people lament --but this is what would happen to Japan if they allowed mass migration so supplement their own population targets. It would be a country like many others with nothing distinguishing it apart.
