Academy convention is to award older, more accomplished actors for previous work that was not awarded. Chalemet's age compared to Paul's is irrelevant. IRL, Chalemet is too young (compared to his competition in 2022) to be awarded an Oscar. Not technically, but in practice, Oscars are more like lifetime achievement awards. For example, Jamie Lee Curtis did not give an Oscar winning performance in Everything Everywhere All at Once, but they had to give it to her for her lifetime achievement and the fact that they awarded Oscars to two other actors in the film. That movie was terrible, but Michelle Yeoh deserves an Oscar for lifetime achievement. Ke Huy Kuan, 51, was certainly adequate, but the roll was nothing special. Hong Chau, 41, should have gotten his Oscar for her work in The Whale, which was a notably amazing performance. Kuan got it because of his age, even if his lifetime achievement is limited. Someone decided Everything Everywhere would sweep the Oscars, and it had everything to do with Michelle Yeoh's and Jamie Lee Curtis' lifetime achievements. The Whale was a far better film with more difficult acting that was nailed. It was just too controversial. Frasier got the Oscar even though his supporting actor Chau out-acted him, and pretty much everyone in all other movies. Her performance there was one of the best I have ever seen, and I had never heard of her. She'll be back.
This is my answer. How do you know you've learned something? If you're learning how to build something, you know you've learned it when you can build it.

Fiction is a little tougher, but I've found conversations with my wife help me here. If I can make her as interested in the story as I am, then I must be retaining enough of the important points to say I'm absorbing enough of what I'm reading.
The definition of fragile ego right here. Name calling, circular arguments, and even a reference to reproductive organs. Just admit you were wrong. It is okay to be wrong sometimes.

My biggest problem with those imaginary suits is the transfer of energy.

Even if a lightweight bulletproof material like that can be made, there needs to be some symptom of energy transfer visible to the eye. Otherwise, it's not sci-fi; it's magic
Math actually takes it to an extreme. I did not expect that and spent a few months reading math textbooks thinking I'm studying it. Maybe doing some basic exercises and moving further right after.
And then there's the plot twist. On-label use is for type 2 diabetes, which is considered a consequence of obesity. So it's actually about prevention vs treatment.
Swing is pretty nice UX these days actually. Try the very latest IntelliJ in "new ui" mode, it looks modern and has an incredibly productive UI with tons of keyboard shortcuts, specialized widgets, etc.

The API is a bit old now, but you could easily put a reactive layer on top.
I think the big picture is that security is winning: Apple also adding U2F, etc. All this implies that we will see more E2E and identities disconnected from our mobile phone numbers, which is great.
Clones sharing a root system definitely sounds like being the same organism, if you ask me.
> The big winner from the marketing hype has been the handset manufacturers, which have convinced customers that they must have 5G phones - without really telling them why

Its is a fact that much of recent tech development has been skewed by the explosion of mobile. It also feels as if this era is finally saturating and that might not be a bad thing. Mobile computing is obviously an amazing new dimension but it is also intrinsically a dumbed-down version of what fixed lines and more serious hardware (desktops etc) can offer.

Visions of a what a good digital society looks like vary, but resilient, high capacity fiber networks combined with a shift to more client-heavy computing would my preference. Imagine upgrading homes to be real digital hubs (e.g. supporting self-hosted clouds) offering a stark alternative to the remote mega datacenter plus puny touch screens.
I could see how it might be used as a "memory" to some of these AI-generated workflows. As content is generated, having it stored, indexed, and easily discoverable would be important. If the users of these AI tools are individuals and small groups more than big corporations, there may be a market here for Dropbox to tune its product line towards.
Very cool. Was this to learn about websites and sql, or you just wanted to extremely accessibly data analysis?

I also used more crude algorithms that sort by X, group elements in buckets, and within each, sort by Y. Then we get a grid of elements. The result is less high-quality than with iterative algorithms (and depends on if we sort by X or Y first), but it is hard to beat its simplicity.

I understand this basically ruined a lot of the feel of Supernatural if you never saw it on air.
I don't really understand the question. When I read a nonfiction book, if it brings a new perspective that changes my understanding, then it changes my understanding as I read it, I don't do (or need to do) anything else. And if it has something that I want to apply to my daily/work life, then I apply it to my daily/work life when I read it (not as some special process after reading the whole book), handling it the exact same way as if I got "that something to apply" from a chat at lunch or a HN post or a shower thought.
This comes up all the time regarding Dropbox, why can't you pay less for a less-storage tier?

The answer is you're not really paying for the storage. You're paying for the servicing. The application with its network connectivity and data transfer, plus the overhead costs of billing and support when necessary.

The proposition may look like "$100 for 10 TB", but that's not a ratio that you can halve or whatever. It's $100 for 10 TB and all the network servicing and support apparatus, which doesn't change if the storage amount does.

It's not that Dropbox couldn't offer a tier for less than 100/year, it's that they don't want to. We around HN know about reducing headaches by avoiding pathologically cheap customers. Dropbox makes more profit overall by getting some of the would-be cheapos to round up to 100/year and letting the rest walk.
I have a hard time taking seriously anyone who publishes a paper like this truly believing they've solved P=NP.

Remember the "faster than light neutrinos" thing? They published their stuff basically saying "Okay, we're really uncomfortable with this result so can someone explain what we've missed here?".

Papers like this always feel like the author is surprised anyone is even doubting them. "What, it's just the hardest problem in your field, worthy of a Millennium prize, and I'm publishing it in some lesser-known journals with little peer review. What of it?"

Come on. Have some modesty. Have some self-doubt! Reach out to Terry Tao and you know he'll happily explain your mistake and then help you write a better paper.
I think there is a difference between "realism" and "believability". Even the hardest fantasy and sci-fi needs to be believable, even if it is completely unrealistic.

And by that I mean, it needs to follow a predictable and understandable set of rules that make sense. I think John Wick does that (besides falling off the occasional building.)
An example of how oblivious drivers on phones are is this:

I parked (where I could not be seen by the van) to warn oncoming drivers of mobile speed van 50 metres ahead over brow of hill.

While nearly all made eye contact with me and speeders instantly slammed the brakes, two drivers on phones (both women with kids), despite me flashing my headlamps AND putting my hand out of my car and waving at them, they still did not look at me or put down the phone.

This was after the penalty was doubled to 6 points.

(And yes I know its not legal for me to warn drivers of speed traps like this)

Very, very wide SIMD units is also a good model. Your performance is proportional to how much of the same thing you're doing at once
> Peter Jackson would disagree. If you can't get it done in a single "getting longer" movie runtime, just make it into 3.

That's how we got The Hobbit series, which were getting a bit too thin/stretched IMHO. LoTR as three worked, maybe Hobbit as two could have been better (was a love triangle really needed?)

Why would you need that? Unless you are a racing in your car. Yeah, it maybe useful in collision avoidance but somehow I don't think that this is the target persona.
An "English speaking Cleopatra" is, unless there's a specific in-story reason to speak English, not actually speaking English within the context of the story. The English is just there so the viewer can understand it.
> You mean like

I mean like when they walked all over the constitution by censoring Bolsonaro supporters left and right. Literal unabashed unconstitutional censorship, openly biased against Bolsonaro at that.

There's plenty wrong with the literal concentration camp they set up in Brasília too. People imprisoned without any charges. Only recently did they vote to turn some of them into actual defendants. Not to mention the embarrassing videos that leaked recently that imply that whole "terrorist" thing was a false flag operation. Meanwhile they released PCC drug traffickers involved in the torture and assassination attempt against the Lava Jato judge and his family. It's comical.

> I'd really like to know what communists they were talking about

PT, obviously. The fact Lula is a communist is news? It's becoming a pain to have to constantly remind people of this. There's videos of him literally saying his objective is to install socialism in Brazil. Decades old videos. I have no reason to doubt the man's own words and his actions certainly don't leave any room for doubt. Whether the other communists think he's a real communist... Who cares, really?
> It's inefficient, failure-laden, and it's the best way to truly learn something.

I think there's value in documenting the errors/failures one ran into, and reflecting on them in hindsight. That is what actually shows one's learning process.
I’m afraid eventually that will mean not buying a car. Wouldn’t be surprised if non-lojackable cars are banned.
It also happens with human artists.

Artists are trained in things like perspective, shadows, etc... They often devote a good amount of time drawing people right maybe, study basic principles like mass distribution, but they don't know everything about the underlying principles. For example, I have a painting of a harbor with a few sailboats, it looks great until you realize that sails take the wind from different directions, as if each boat had their own wind. Unless the artist really has a strong focus on realism, sometimes involving collaboration with experts in the field of what they are drawing, you are going to find mistakes like these everywhere.
The final movie was by far the worst in the franchise. They completely abandoned a lot of the attention to detail and carefully managed suspension of disbelief that characterized the first movie.

Turns out they fired/didn't hire the guy who wrote the first 3, which explains why number 4 was basically just a generic lowbrow super-hero movie with none of the sauce of the others.

> Qualified immunity is the principle that a public official acting in good faith cannot be held personally liable for an action that is later determined to violate the Constitution. No reasonable person, other than a nihilist, could possibly disagree with qualified immunity.

Qualified immunity is the principle that an official cannot be sued for an action that isn't clearly shown to be unconstitutional. It shuts down a lawsuit before there is any fact finding as to whether or not the official was reasonably justified in their belief that their actions were constitutional.

Yes, being reasonably justified that actions were constitutional should be a valid defense. But qualified immunity isn't a defense, it's a vehicle to shunt cases out of the system before the question of defense is raised. And we already have a judicial mechanism to decide whether or not someone's actions were reasonable: pick 12 random people and ask them if they thought their actions were reasonable, aka, a jury trial. There's no need for qualified immunity.
Ya same here these days if I like a book and it impacts me -- it will change me! If not, then not.
You are right that I shouldn't lump all Asian media together when I meant Japanese and South Korean. Also I said cynicism is less present not all together missing. I think there is a difference between portraying cynicism and espousing cynicism. I think shows like Evangelion and Squid Game portray a cynical world view but it is portrayed in a negative way not endorsed as a positive world view. Much of that is up for interpretation though I guess. There are other aspect that affect this as well context, contrast, etc. Maybe its not so much that western media is more cynical or ironic maybe its just that they don't do it in a way that works well in the story.

Never. On the other hand, I have considerable confidence that I could do so, and that if something goes wrong with upstream development, someone is likely to do so.

If I use a free-binary-but-no-source product, I’m much more likely to get stuck.

(Of course, as a regretful MySQL user, I am pretty stuck, but largely because MySQL is, in many respects, a terrible product. It does, quite reliably, get security updates at the kind of general maintenance that keeps it working no worse than it ever did.)
The Bible has changed connotations in certain verses in the translation stage.

For one example, "The Ten Commandments" is an unscriptural phrase; it's "The Ten Words" in Hebrew, Greek, and Latin. Only for the King James Version in English does it become commandments (possibly reflecting the monarch-benefactor's ideas of law and authority).
Dishonesty and subterfuge are bad marketing tactics.
Without The Jerry Springer show I doubt we would have got Idiocracy.
The author makes good points - but honestly I don't care too much about the explanation behind _why_ the protagonist is seemingly invincible. John Wick movies are fun due to the camera work, fighting scene choreography and the "cool" characters. Most action movies don't require you to think too much about what's going on, and that's fine, imo.
Im Colombian. The bullet proof suit has existed since the late 90s. We invented it.

To be honest, it's extremely common wherever the impoverished are located in the U.S. I've witnessed so much chaos from inner-city venturing, to growing up with some households that absolutely belonged on that show.

AI is allowing for massive monitization of what was previously "flat file" style data.

Dropbox, as I mentioned, has always 'not been you friend' - now they are just a more powerful 'not your friend'.

Latency is also "only" improved to and from a tower, the rest stays the same.
A proof that P=NP doesn't necessarily mean that NP-hard problems are solvable in any practical sense. The time complexity claimed by the paper, O(n^2 * m^3), grows quickly, and the constant factors may be high. In fact, I'd go so far as to say it's very unlikely that a P=NP proof would make any difference in practice, since SAT solvers are so good for real-world problems.

(I'm leaving aside the fact that cryptocurrency theft is a crime that most people would be disinclined to commit, as well as the extraordinarily high likelihood that this proof is incorrect.)
You will enjoy driving “classic” vehicles only in the near future then.

Many automakers already push OTA updates, and the holdouts who had been trying to preserve a dealership and service network by saying you had to take the car in are I believe mostly moving to OTA.
Zig fits pretty naturally here too. We've got ~19 WebGPU examples[1] which use Dawn natively (no browser support yet), and we build it using Zig's build system so it 'just works' out of the box with zero fuss as long as you grab a recent Zig version[2]. No messing with cmake/ninja/depot_tools/etc.

WASM support in Zig, Rust, and C++ is also not equal. C++ prefers Emscripten which reimplements parts of popular libraries like SDL, for me personally that feels a bit weird as I don't want my compiler implementing my libraries / changing how they behave. Rust I believe generally avoids emscripten(?), but Zig for sure lets me target WASM natively and compile C/C++ code to it using the LLVM backend and soon the custom Zig compiler backend.

I assume they're talking about trace amounts being used in primers and detonators.
I'm pretty sure Google is already using plenty of "AI" behind these functionalities. Heck, image classification was the very beginning of the current "AI summer" a dozen years ago!

Not nearly everything in AI is ChatGPT, not quite all is NLP for that matter, there's still plenty of interesting things which are improving. Dropbox might well be pivoting to improve their e.g. photo/video offering with AI, but they might as well have started that 5 years ago.
Beautifully put. It's been a while since I've read a book and immediately thought, "Wow, this is so inspiring, my life will be completely changed if I can apply this!" I think this is more a function of my age rather than the quality of the books I've read recently.

Just about everything I read—fiction or nonfiction—will impact me in some small way, whether it's a useful new phrase, a novel concept, something explained in a new way, or a new perspective. I'm fine with just absorbing what I can and allowing it to enrich my (hopefully) continuing process of gradual self-improvement.
Abel Gance gave us his Napoléon in 1927. About five and a half hours, and originally envisioned as the first of a trilogy—that 5.5 hours only covers his early life and career!

It's awesome, and I hold out faint hope that some rich Hollywood film nerd will finish the trilogy, silent and in black and white.
Social Guidance and Gender Roles: Habit Patterns (1954) [video]
Do you live in SF or is this just armchair criticism?

The general lawlessness is reflected by evidence on the ground. The police in SF have stopped arresting people because the DA doesn’t prosecute. I’d say this is an open secret, but it’s not secret. It’s just common knowledge in SF.
People have stopped bothering with the police because they don’t do anything. Total collapse of social order reflects in the stats as a drop in crime.

Remember that viral video of the cops rolling up on a burglary in progress? (it was at a dispensary if that matters) The burglar ran out literally in front of the cops and they did nothing. That’s the attitude of the police in SF. It’s actually been that way for a while and was quaint before it got bad. Beer in the park? Technically illegal but cops aren’t going to do anything so feel free.

I’ve had a friend tell me “it’s basically impossible to get a moving violation in San Francisco unless you do something blatantly antisocial“. Again this was actually a benefit before things got bad. A little flex feels nice.

But it cuts both ways.
I called and reported a homeless person stealing a nice road bike. It was locked to itself in front of a convenience store. He picked it up on a shopping cart and hustled away.

Called the police. While watching him do it. Description , location. They refused to do anything. They hassled me for wasting their time.

I watched on more than one occasion the weird blatant shoplifting. People just openly load up a bag and walk out. I was In getting a covid shot and a dude rode his bike into the pharmacy. He scooped some stuff off a shelf into a bag and rode out. Staff studiously ignored him.

I’ve walked into stores where literally everything is under glass, locked to the shelf or empty box. because otherwise people just walk out with it because the police don’t do anything. I wanted to buy something but couldn’t because the staff were busy watching a strung-out dude who was clearly aiming to steal something. I went to check out what they were so attentive about. There was nothing left, just a few notebooks.

Something like 17 stores have left Union square. In part because of the general lawlessness.

I get what the police are doing though. If you don’t prosecute we don’t arrest. And they ARE trying to maintain order. They were out in union square in force to try to keep shoppers and stores safe in December.

So yeah, data. Go visit San Francisco if you think this is all made up. Go buy some heroin openly on the street. Go steal some stuff. It’ll really open your eyes.

But even with all that it feels pretty safe compared to other dangerous places. Aside from the uptick in armed robberies in public places.

In conclusion. There’s stats and then there’s eyes on the ground. Go check it for yourself. I highly recommend it to anyone hoping to extend “necessary criminal justice reforms” (which I actually agree with). The SF model is not the right way to do it. I have some ideas but this is not the place.
