>Is the solution to the problem to just let people have as much they want, because taking them away is bad?

Easy peasy, right? Start listing off all of things that are "harmful" and take them away from people. Booze, 80% of the food people eat, power tools. What does harmful even mean in this context?
> You have to be a billionaire to figure out that 2 hours are worth 15k

A multi-millionaire can prob. already drop 15k. Also, not 2 hours, if to go to your destination would require a connection or 2, while private flight is direct.
Maybe this product would work better as a fake AI. Just as a matchmaking service for two lonely people. You could even lie to them and tell each that the other was an AI.
"This is a story is about people who loved someone who had a secret master that can mine control them not to love you anymore overnight."

There's something both profound and ironic about this statement, because it happens in real life all the time.

Think of LGBTQ Millennials whose QAnon or Fox News consuming parents decide to disown them because they're sinning against God. People who marry a workaholic and then spend 30 years wishing their spouse was home for dinner instead of working late for a faceless corporation. Workers who pour their heart and soul into their job and then get laid off as soon as a downturn hits. People who get friend-dumped by their maid of honor a month after their wedding. Lovers who get cheated on, and whose partner then falls for their best friend.

Ironically, the reason people turn to services like Replika is that they want to feel that human connection without the risk of betrayal. They just found out that the risk of betrayal always exists, even when you're speaking to a computer.

This is a story about betrayal, and loneliness, and disappointment, all wrapped up in trendy tech with a villain to name. But it's popular because betrayal, and loneliness, and disappointment are such strong and universal emotions.

One of the most profound statements I heard when I was forever-alone was that "Entering a relationship means giving another person the power to destroy you, and then trusting that they won't. That's the whole point." Because when you realize that you can't escape vulnerability, you're forced to manage it, and that leads to the rabbit hole of learning to identify your emotions, control them, decide rationally how much you're going to invest in a person or venture, but still be open enough to have emotions and let them flow naturally, but managing them rather than letting them attach to whatever tickles your fancy at the moment.
The PM that no longer had the confidence of parliament a month after the election of his minority party.

It's reasonable for the PM to ask for such a self-serving thing, it's not for that ask to have been acquiesced to.

There were three options (that I can think of) for dealing with that situation:

1. Allow the coalition to form government.

2. Hold another election, a month after the previous one.

3. ...Suspend parliament for a few months, so that the coalition can't hold a vote to push the minority government out!

#2 is pretty nuts, but kind of justifiable, but #3 was absolutely nuts. (And had the bonus points of threatening that a non-confidence election half-a-year after the previous one is 'okay', despite Parliament being entirely non-functional for most of that intervening time.)

That there aren't clear rules about this, or that a minority PM can prevent a majority coalition from ousting him is the maddening part.

My sister recently posted a series of problems she has with "capitalism" on Instagram. They basically all boiled down to "I don't want to have to work" I didn't have the heart to point out that "He who does not work shall not eat." Was said by Karl Marx. I feel that part of the youths obsession with socialism and blaming capitalism is that they have never experienced scarcity to any real degree and because of that do not understand that there are limited resources, and their issue is fundamentally with that concept that they want to blame on capitalism.
They had a subscription and locked "relationships" behind it, for a period.

I think notably it was a year long subscription but was only available for a few months or so, so people might feel cheated out of that money if they were paying for the relationships.
My grandparents and my father grew up in the Soviet Union. I always find it fascinating hearing about my grandparent's childhood and what it was like to grow up there.

Even if you know you're not supposed to just toss batteries in the trash, getting them to a recycling center can be a pain. Each borough runs, I believe, a single hazardous items drop off day per year -- are people really supposed to hold onto batteries for an average of six months?

It turns out that Staples, Lowe's, and Home Depot will generally take your batteries for you, but I've never seen this advertised anywhere.
I'd assume they were afraid of being pulled from the App Store, either for vague reasons, or because Apple straight out warned them. And they decided a Android-only, or Website-only version of their product wouldn't perform as well as a version without romantic features.
Using LD_PRELOAD for IPv4 seems to me like using the wrong tool for the job.

> "Most of the apps I use support IPv6 but there are some cases when lack of IPv4 connectivity on my machine negatively affects experience."

Just install clatd to get 464XLAT so hardcoded ipv4 get routed to 192.0.0.1 (the clat iface is the default gw for ipv4) which does NAT64 through tayga too.

IMHO the best strategy is a mix of strategies:

- 1. Clatd doing 464XLAT (RFC 6877) so:

- 1.1 Stateful protocol translation (RFC 6146) at CG-NAT64

- 1.2 Stateless protocol translation (RFC 6145) at the UE

- 2. DNS64 (RFC 6147) mechanisms at the DNS server returning padded AAAA for A only entries

- 3. IPv4 embedding into IPv6 addresses (RFC 6052 section 2.2)

The Soviet Union's approach to paid time off (PTO) was unique, as it not only provided workers with time off but also determined how they spent it, often with groups of strangers instead of friends and family. This policy aimed to promote the collective as the most important social unit and provided subsidized vacations to a select number of workers. Although Soviet vacations initially served as team-building exercises, over time, citizens' desire for family vacations increased, challenging the state's policies. The rise of family vacations and personal investment in holidays led to a shift from purposeful production to popular consumption. Soviet vacations played a role in loosening ideological restrictions on freedom, and as travel policies opened the door for political dissent to spread, the government struggled to maintain control over leisure time.

I'm Justin. I have 5 years of industry experience. I have a BSc. in mathematics and MSc. in computer science. My ending project work for my MSc. focussed on high-performance computing, involving C/C++, LLVM and Haskell.

I was most recently working on the automated market making of cryptocurrency options on a number of large options exchanges (Rust). Previous to that, I worked as a backend developer at a bank. I later developed a high-performance data analytics engine in Scala used for the insurance industry, and later worked on software for the optimisation of home energy usage (Haskell).

Having worked in a number of fields, I'm not too hard set on what I work on next, but have a preference to remain in the finance/trading field (crypto, betting or traditional finance). I am open to all interesting suggestions, and I am available to start work straight away.

I am symmetrical gigabit fiber internet with an Eero 6 Pro in the U.S., and the lag is quite robust. I don't see a way of solving that.

And, as you say, a lot of people don't have access to high-quality internet, and there is no reason to believe they will any time soon.

I had an LLM tell me to that killing myself makes sense when recounting a low point in my life to it and how I'd contemplated suicide. I wasn't looking for any kind of "jailbreak" in prompts, this was following a genius on HN saying it's a "great alternative to a therapist". No, it isn't fit for purpose.

That's what the landlord-dominated system would have you believe.

Those who work on the tenant side (that I've known) are some of the most capable and principled professionals you'll ever meet. It's the ones who work the eviction machine who are the bottom feeders - and are viewed as such by other lawyers, accordingly.
Back in the 1950s and '60s my dad built a few EICO kit devices. They were another supplier of build-it-yourself electronic testing equipment to go along with Heathkit:

Not just routers: android phones since 4.3 and iOS 12 both include a CLAT implementation to do just that.

It comes from a letter written by Thomas Halman or Holman, Jr, one of the guards, to a George Weston on 30 July 1844 (about a month later). The letter is in the Special Collections of the Newberry Library in Chicago. I have been unable to find a digitized copy of this letter anywhere online, with the only quotation from it being that when Halman was concerned about the approaching mob, Joseph said "Don't trouble yourself ... they have come to rescue me." Nothing else of the letter seems to be easily available, and most of the references to it are erroneously citing the wrong book by Dr. D. Michael Quinn with the wrong date (it comes from his "Origins of Power" book, page 141).

So, it seems reasonable to accept the source as it is a first-hand account written within a short time frame of the event. However, all we have currently (until someone decides to digitize the letter) is these few words from it.

(Link to a 1966 bibliography that lists the letter's existence and location in the Newberry Library: https://www.siue.edu/lovejoy-library/tas/Kimball_Sources.pdf page 20)

Edit: I was incorrect with my assumption that the author of the letter was one of the guards. I've been unable to determine the names of the guards at Carthage that day, so the letter does not represent a first-hand account, as I thought, but instead represents what was being commonly relayed by local residents of Carthage at the time. I found a larger quotation in an article from the 1995 JWHA journal (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1sv9HIDgATUM7tPxlbd-UcX7uvIV... page 26). It seems the author of the letter is trying to simply relay all of the known information about the attack and murder of the Smiths.

Resistance cooktops are fine too, you just have to learn to adjust to them. I’ve had one in all but one home I’ve ever lived in, and it’s second nature at this point. Every time I try to cook on a gas stove I burn whatever I’m making until I remember how to use them.

Your post suggests that you know almost nothing about how modern deep learning originated.
A corporation can execute the creation of consumer or producer goods for sale to the market, earning a profit greater than the sum of the inputs. Corporations execute on that specific mission with a goal of maximizing profit. A side-effect of this (in a truly free market) is to ensure the customer, who should be able to freely to purchase from any producer, is maximally satisfied. It also follows that a corporation will try and reduce their costs on all possible axes - from inputs, to labor, to production time, to tax mitigation, etc.

If you try to extend "producing goods" to "every good possible for all people", it cannot possibly work, because a corporation cannot even satisfy the needs of consumers within their narrow band of production (or else competitors wouldn't exist, and further enhancements of products would be unnecessary).

Very interesting 🤔
Gigantism has many "features" going for it:

Like you say, it pushes risks to the tail (lower probability). Low probability - high impact events are easily mis-priced and thus this becomes a rent extraction channel.

Removing competition by acquisitions means the market can be distorted more easily. Another source of non-earned profit.

But there are also subtler benefits:

Gigantism creates de-facto regulatory capture (how could a lowly government bureaucrat go against the "giant"?). Such leverage versus rule-makers can be tweaked to optimize... wait for it, further risk-less profit.

Finally, "giants" can offer excess compensation and prestige to attract key talented individuals, essentially a scorched earth strategy to suppress any other actors.

All-in-all a horrible pattern that doesn't really offer any benefit (besides to the few insiders in the top of the pyramid). Delivering innovative products or services requires a certain scale but that is typically an order of magnitude smaller than observed sectoral concentrations.

Why is it happening if it is so toxic? Well, society is stupid. More stupid in fact than many (if not most) of its individuals.

The hope is that there is a sufficient number of independently evolving societies so that low-IQ societies imbibing on toxic stuff go extinct (not physically, as a cultural pattern).
I agree - I think the problem is mostly the dock: I have a Dell Precision and a similar dock - TB16 - at the office and a Cable Matters dock at home (with a similar peripheral setup), and the CM never gave me any trouble while the TB16 always have issues with one of the external displays not connecting (sometimes one, sometimes the other), the USB hub taking ages to init and then sometimes disconnecting in the middle of the day, and other stuff. Hard reseting the dock (disconnect power and TB cables and reconnect) sometimes helps, but not always. Also Google "tb16 xhci disconnects" for more issues and workarounds.

As a counterpoint, the two architects of the CIA torture program, one of the most evil of things that has ever come out of the CIA (which is a ridiculously high bar), were Mormons. High ranking Mormons in ecclesiastical positions, teaching love on Sunday, and torture on Monday through Saturday. And they probably legitimately thought they were making the world a better place...in a very compartmentalized and thoroughly corrupted way. Religion is a plague on this world...people can be just as easily corrupted by it as they can be elevated by it. I'd prefer to not have any group overrepresented at the CIA.

The US isn't laissez-faire. Most proponents of free-markets would point to the current crises and relate them to the central bankers. Interest rates have been centrally planned rather than floating on the market. Banking regulations drive banks to hold treasuries. When new treasuries are issued at a higher rate of interest, the rate of discount for lower (near zero interest) t-bills increases, putting bank balance sheets out of whack.
And this is one of those situations where you don't go tearing off bandages without sutures in hand. Something not being a complete solution is not a good argument for eliminating it, until such a solution exists.

The only instance of Hanssen causing deaths seem to be when he exposed "Martynov and Motorin" to be working for the FBI. They were arrested, tried, convicted and executed by the Soviet government.

Getting corrupt spies to be exposed doesn't really seem to be a great datum to back your argument. He might have actually saved more lives indirectly since he stopped them from leaking secret Soviet information to the US. Anything else?
It isn't any more or any less popular than it has always been. The same goes for stuff like racists, paleo-conservatives, people who read Ayn Rand, overt nazis and other amusing creatures.

Populist stuff that seems to make sense on the surface always has the upper hand in an unmoderated debate.
