It read to me like he was just commenting on your frustration that the law and all our norms don't instantaneously proscribe all possible forms of discrimination, that there isn't a plausible generalizable principle of "just don't discriminate", even if it's easy to anticipate that we shouldn't allow discrimination against e.g. trans people.
For the specific use case you're describing, I've found `git worktree` to be very useful.

Overall, at least when it comes to features, I've actually had the opposite experience. That said, I'm one of those people such that you can pry `git rebase` out of my cold, dead hands, so it's that feature specifically that I really miss when I have to work with Perforce.

Setting up multiple Yubikeys and Git signing on macOS
I agree. For example if you want to use Google's ASR (Automated Speech Recognition), if your file is longer than 1 minute in duration, you first need to upload it to a bucket, which is a lot of added complexity compared to a regular HTTP POST.

Just copying the file to a mounted bucket would make this a lot easier.

Then again, how does one get the metadata of the uploaded file?
He means the standard residential circuit (like you would plug a PC or TV into) is typically 15 amps. Larger appliances, like an AC, are dedicated circuits, usually at a higher amperage. It's not uncommon for AC to be on 30A or 60A

Eh, iOS doesn’t allow any alternative rendering engines, which isn’t exactly user choice.
Watching that interview, I got the impression that Geoff is a very curious person, driven by his sense of wonder. At the same time I couldn't help but feel that he comes across as very naive or perhaps innocent in his thinking. While he wouldn't personally use his creations for morally gray or evil things, I think it's clear we're already in living in a world where ML and AI are in the hands of people with less than pure intentions.
Yeah exactly, nicely said, that’s really all I was trying to say, and thanks for replying. The size digression and unnecessary details are my fault.
No, it comes from the fact that floating point is binary and has limited precision. Think of it in terms of scientific notation. Here's an example in decimal. If we limit ourselves to four significant digits, then a number like:

3.101 * 10^3

is odd -- it's equivalent to 3101 (three thousand one hundred one). It's followed by 3.102*10^3 (3102), which is even, and 3.103*10^3 (3103), which is odd. But a number like:

3.101 * 10^5

which is equivalent to 310100, is even. It's followed by 3.102*10^5 (310200), which is also even, and 3.103*10^5 (310300), which is again even. If you have four significant digits and an exponent larger than 3, then you the value in the ones place will always be zero. Thus, the number is always a multiple of 10, and therefore even.

Floating point is the same, except it's binary. In a 32-bit float, you have 23 bits of mantissa after the decimal point. If the exponent is larger than 2^23, the ones place is always zero, so the number is guaranteed to be a multiple of 2, and therefore even.
Sure but it lasts like 2 days. It manifests as you being cranky and you can't sleep for a night or two. Then you're fine.
"makes out with friends?"

There's no comparison between weed and these other drugs. "Trying a joint or two" has no negative repercussions unless you are prone to paranoia or anxiety.

But you are describing teens who are regular users. Teens make bad decisions. Smoking marijuana every day will (can) definitely do the things they told you. Make you slow, only care about smoking, etc. The person who lost their mind either was very sensitive to some mental illness and should not have been doing any drugs, or smoked spice (NOT marijuana).

Also "government rehab" would be an absolutely fantastic thing to have for marijuana. There are tons of people with a marijuana habit who are self-medicating (and were before legalization) and one of the points of legalization is to help people NOT abuse the drugs. Unfortunately there is nothing like this where i live, even though cannabis is legal here.

Fwiw, in my experience the first ("gateway") drug that kids get into is alcohol.

They scrubbed a launch on 4/17, so either the launch was delayed for a dumb joke, they ran a false flag launch attempt to hide that the real launch was scheduled based on a dumb joke in case of disaster, or they don't actually make decisions like that based on dumb jokes.
Of course, this wasn't meant as a specific policy proposal, but I think it's interesting to compare to his wealth tax proposal from a few years ago, which went up to an 8% tax on wealth above $10B ... which made it technically feasible for large fortunes to avoid shrinking if they were able to generate returns greater than the tax rate, but generally would nudge large amassed wealth to shrink.

An even more honest thing to say is that infinity when used as a number is a hack introduced by mathematicians to make notation and reasoning simple in some cases, but that it can be dangerous in other cases, like any other hack. If you want to use infinity in a safe way, then use limits around your expressions.

(And this quickly resolves the case of this article, since lim x->inf x-2*floor(x/2) does not exist).
Also a good option. Edge and Chrome are definitely on the biting edge of this particular ratchet, while Firefox and Safari are at least half a whole rotation behind. (We could split hairs about who is a click behind whom, and how much of that is because of development velocity rather than intention, but the difference is minor compared to where Chrome and Edge are at.)
I'm surprised they don't mention Parker. At school in France in the 90s, that was the true classic.
If you take a look at Rapid Development (published 1996), one of the classic mistakes it lists is not using version control. A number of other 90s and earlier texts lament people not using version control.

Personally, a guy I dealt with circa 2010 stood up in a meeting on building better site-wide development processes, and asked what the point of version control was.

So, you've been lucky.

Nothing. Systemd is a suite of software that handle a lot of the low-level operations on Linux (In particular, the service manager, some network configuration, along with some other stuff). Historically, those operations were handled by different services (like SysvInit).

A lot of people are mad about it for a lot of reasons, but if you're not a system administrator, it's probably better to stick with systemd, since it's what most of the linux community has standardized on, and thus it's much easier to find information online about using those systems.
I don't think most worker's unions are filled with Mafia members these days so you probably wouldn't have to worry about prison/death.

As for corruption, a strong democracy is highly effective against it which is why corrupt states try so hard to weaken or eliminate Democracy where they can. Democracy is absolutely a threat to corruption.

The US does seem to have slipped some (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corruption_Perceptions_Index) and there's no surprise that there have been some very worrying efforts to weaken our democracy recently. Most Americans think our democracy is in danger. This would probably be a good time to fight for a stronger democracy so that we're better able to deal with corruption.
IBM is a bunch of businesses, some of which still likely make sense -- their mainframe hardware line (S/360 successors, currently branded as z/System), and associated products, are still actively developed, and very likely profitable, considered on their own. But that may not be enough to carry the rest of the business.

Any research which involved actually showing pornography to minors would almost certainly be shut down for ethical reasons. Studies would almost certainly have to be observational and post-facto, studying people who admit to having been exposed as minors.

Medical ethics practices in the U.S. are actually very advanced and restrictive. I cannot imagine an IRB ever approving showing minors pornography especially given that there is a reasonable expectation of harm and essentially no expectation of benefit.
Getting money from drugs is still getting money from drugs. We also get money from casinos. No good things come from this.

And for those who believe that a annual decline in drug sales supports the idea of legalizing it, don't you think these companies will act with the most sinister of intentions like so many before them have acted? Like Juul, big tobacco, beer, fentanyl, and casinos?

Not sure what is driving this case in particular, but I doubt the average naturalist or birder really cares about Musk or Twitter. They are just geeks who want to enjoy nature, and this kind of activity disrupts nature.

Coastal birds can be very fragile to disturbance and are already threatened by lack of habitat. They often have limited energy levels and regular disruption will cause them to take flight and expend that energy. This can have an effect on mortality. Not sure if this is the case at Boca Chica, but I can understand why people are worried.
Way to regurgitate a tired argument. Kids are addicted to porn before they’re old enough to drive these days and it’s messes them up for life (see: the incel movement.) Something has to be done about corporations that profit off of showing literal children hardcore porn.

“Talking to your kids” doesn’t work when multinational corporations are incentivized to addict them for ad revenue.
> I know a kid who is a lost cause, and his friends claim he took contaminated drugs; are they wrong?

Yes, they are wrong. There's no such thing as "contaminated" marijuana, that's an urban myth.

As far as productivity, it depends on how you look at it. You can be much more creative while using marijuana, it can also be great to boost productivity if you're tired or not in the mood to be creative...

It may have you re-examine if you want to overwork, make business your life, climb the corporate ladder... but all of those seem like positive revelations too and a much needed counterbalance to all of the pro-corporate propaganda we all drown in.
I thought that most of us learn at an early age, as a result of this kind of exchange, that "infinity" is not "the biggest number" or even a number at all, as far as the ordinary notion of "number" goes.

This is a failure of health care systems. The degree to which healthcare has been made into a differentiating factor between the haves and have nots is astounding (to me, at least). You'd think the first thing a developed country would do is to ensure that healthcare was universal and completely free, instead it is used as a source of income because health is 'priceless'. It bothers me tremendously but I don't see what I could realistically do about it.
But high school kids are having less sex and, those that do, with fewer partners and it continues to trend down. [1]

So, assuming porn has any effect at all, it's possible highly available internet porn is decreasing the amount of sex kids are having.

The sexual violence trend on page 56 is concerning however it looks like the CDC has not been tracking that question as long either (only 4 year trend instead of 10+ like other categories).

Another concerning thing to me is the decreasing condom use, especially with current abortion trends. If we think porn drives behavior, maybe porn actors should be mandated to use condoms.

The market is going through equalization with prices bottoming out over the next 6-12 months. There will be lots of smaller shops bought up by multi-state companies.
Amateur-me thinks that it would not be too hard to prevent such an attack: Have a voltage fault detection circuit at all (TPM-relevant) supply pins that hard-locks the chip until it gets power cycled, and have those circuits be powered by on-chip capacitors that survive just a little longer than their time-to-trigger. Would that be feasible?
I'm not sure I agree. If the parents don't do it, someone ought to. I disagree on the part that all types of porn (especially by the USA level of prudishness) is necessarily harmful to 16-year-olds.
So we should rather be saying that America and Canada and Sweden won't exist?
ChatGPT and the (Undocumented) OpenAI Usage Endpoint
Yep. I use GMail and Safari on iOS. When I open links from GMail, every so often it shows a popup saying "would you like to install Chrome and open this link with Chrome instead of Safari"? It only appears intermittently, not on every link (fortunately), but there's no way to disable it.
They have seemingly 1000 products so it's definitely not fair to apply experiences with one of those, to all of the others.

That said, I've hated the handful of IBM software products I've needed to use.

Another anecdote: I've never met a fellow developer that spoke highly of IBM. That includes the folks who used to work there.

I think it's remarkable how rare it is to meet someone that speaks highly of the company. Companies don't usually achieve such reputation without reason.
OpenAI complaining that someone is making their AI Open, ironic.

Yes exactly! That’s the controversial point that started this entire thread. Glad you came around and we are arguing the same viewpoint now.

This is unfounded speculation but perhaps the difference is that a lot of people in the US voluntarily migrated there, while we know how the English crown got to rule over Wales, Scotland and N. Ireland.....

The US system is "fine" with 49% of the population hating the elected president. The president is not the monarch, nor representing the supreme political ideal. AFAICT the equivalent of anti-monarchy in the US is denouncing the US constitution.
The 2008 strike led to way more reality TV. I don't think studios care about quality as long as it draws monetizable eyeballs. They're certainly going to try to replace writers with LLMs! It might even work. Just...not with any semblance of quality.

On the other hand, it seems a brief renaissance of quality sci-fi TV followed that strike. Though that could be the tax incentives Vancouver offered and the abundance of sci-fi writers who cut their teeth on Stargate.
Use any Unbutu distribution with MATE or Cinnamon. Like shit dawg, I got my grandma using Linux Mint with MATE.

Changed the background to match the same one on her old laptop and added some desktop icons, and boom 99% of her experience was the same. Had to help her a little with the LibreOffice -- that's a little different -- but otherwise functionally similar to Windows 7 / Win10.

I'm using linux as a daily driver and at this point there isn't anything I can't do on Windows. The hold out for a while was games, but Proton w/ Steam works well and I can play big titles like Cyberpunk 2077.
It differs. 442 or 443 are the most common ones. My orchestra tunes 442. When I worked in Germany it was usually 442, but some orchestras tuned 443.

Vienna Phil have historically gone even higher, but are probably down to standard levels by now.
Sounds like it’s not in your backyard so it’s not important, just business?
I'm working on an open source enterprise self-hosted LLM integration, pretty sure many people are these days. The difference will be on the business side, rather than the LLM side, as they are quickly becoming commoditized, at least on the open source side, since they are free to use by anyone.

I'd also say that one needs a moat in order to succeed; you can't just provide the LLM, since anyone can do that, you need to provide something more that works even without any AI at all.
Perhaps I'm missing something, but my problem with this is that if you go back to 1AD, then most of the world is blank, e.g. suggesting that there was no history in Africa and N and S America.
Mastercard and Visa have been doing the same for years now. Anyone who uploads nude photos (and this includes nudism websites) must also upload government id to the website (Not to visa/Mastercard which would be the obvious). So millions of users have uploaded multiple copies of their gov id to all kinds of websites. I m sure they are secure.

This happened after some anti-sex groups went on a pr campaign. And this american pretentiousness is now imposed on everyone, worldwide.
No, that is not what happened. State governments initially did put into place age verification restrictions. Those restrictions were struck down by the Supreme Court in Ashcroft v ACLU because SCOTUS believed that content filtering could be a suitable alternative. 20 years later, we know that content filtering is an abject failure. So the states are passing these laws to get before SCOTUS again to overturn Ashcroft v ACLU.

The market never did this because they never had to before, and the internet has also drastically changed since this was first brought up.
That changing the user agent string helps just shows how absurd these checks are.
Who downvoted you? It's a valid perspective.
Actually scan. I sometimes get beer via door dash, and they quickly verify your age by scanning the barcode on your ID. It pops up green so fast that at least some of the verification must be local to the phone, but I'm sure some data gets sent back. But I had to upload my ID to Door Dash the first time, so incremental scans don't really give them anything new.
I was surprised that the efficiency is 70-80%.[1]

I'm also a bit surprised that it's not somehow preferable to have some kind of idle industrial capacity like aluminum smelting or electroplating that simply operates when the price of power is low. But perhaps the capital requirements for having a semi-idle aluminum smelter are greater than 1/0.8 x the capital costs of pumped storage.

It seems likely to be, particularly in the forms available today. There seems to be increasing consciousness on this both on the left and the right.

The Left has been increasingly concerned about the abusive acts becoming common in pornography and the seemingly pervasive use of underage or barely-of-age women with consent extremely sketchy or not present at all.

The Right has been increasingly concerned about how the pervasive presence of pornography encourages people to focus on that for their needs rather than pursuing real-life relationships and obsess over extreme acts that very few real partners are actually willing to do.

This is all exacerbated by internet startup tendencies, where maximizing "engagement" at all costs is the priority. It's in their incentives to maximize most of the bad effects that everyone is concerned about.

It's not clear exactly how bad everything is or that this particular thing is the right way to address it. But clearly enough people are concerned about it and aren't willing to accept endless delaying tactics around insisting that you can't do any particular thing about it because it can't be proved to be perfect.
Unaligned tribes? That's... quite a thing to claim, especially about Georgia which had unified national monarchy and long dynasties since Middle Ages, only falling to endless external conquests due to being located between several large parts of the world.
Is there something about Boca Chica that makes it the only plausible launch site in Texas? I'm perpetually confused about Elon Musk's seemingly stubborn insistence on using this specific site.

Author here, I'm really glad to see this here, wasn't expecting it to surface on HN.

I started drawing with code a couple of years ago, and I absolutely love everything about it. It brought fun back into programming for me.

Since then, I try to get more people into it. My main argument is that it isn't as hard as it looks like. Often code will be pretty simple and straight-forward but result in visually pleasing images. That's why I wrote a few of these posts [1] and had a talk or two about my drawings.

I'll be happy to answer any questions.
