I can at least appreciate someone who advocates for non-Marxist or Leninist forms of communism or just socialism in general. But there has been a remarkable rise of young people who now defend Leninist communism!

I think for a lot of people, it's intellectual junk food. A Marxist revolution has a low risk of actually happening in the modern world. And rather than educating yourself on policy and working on advocacy, you get to play in a fantasy world where you don't have to do anything except fight the conspiracy suppressing a natural egalitarian world order.
Like the right to protest?
>And as the poster above you mentioned American health care is the most advanced in the world. So even if it is “double” the types of treatments available here are much better.

Most medical services are routine treatments that are the same wherever you go.People travel for special services, but special services don't represent most of that cost difference.
It's important to put that in context. The 80s and early 90s where abnormal going back to the 1700s:

Conversely, extremely low rates in the 2010s were also abnormal.
Ahh, here’s where I’ve definitely not been clear enough then.

I’m not trying to imply they should do nothing if they won’t try and pass the bar I’m setting… and managing this information officially themselves…

I’m lamenting the fact they aren’t trying to live up to the bar that used to be considered normal for official communication from a company, that the official communication will be available once they are done speaking… and hilariously enough I just realised what this is, we went from the modern YouTube era where companies wanted to be in more control of the content they posted and would this run the PR event then published the “official take” to a corporate controlled channel and hold copyright and all the power it gives them… back to the pre-YouTube era of the press conference where reporters brought their own voice recorders and shotgun mics and all hustled for optimal position, recorded their own copy of what the people speaking said, and then all either wrote it up themselves or passed it back to the news desk to have a writer do the article writing… and it feels very stupid to step back like this when all the bullshit can be replaced by a shell script the company runs.
Ask HN: Did you start your programming career with functional programming?
How did the experience turn out for you? How was the shift to imperative languages like e.g. writing loops instead of recursion, mutation of variables instead of immutability, etc.

How do you program now? Do you think it would have been better if you learned imperative first?
Although the title is definitive, it should really say "possible".

That is against the spirit of open source. People and corporations will be wary of using such software, since someone someday may define their use as "unethical". And the "oppressors" don't care about following your license anyway.
Meanwhile, one of the most annoying holdouts on the service side is github.com - I've had a collection of v6-only systems for years and github seems to be the one recurring thing that requires bolting on kludge of some sort.

The latter of the two is probably reasonable, because claiming that a finite mind can not grasp an infinite one is a reasonable conclusion (even from a thermodynamic point of view :)).

“I and the Father are One” is the genesis.

I'd suggest trying to talk the average American into doing that. You'd have to be quite out of touch with everyday people to think this is a battle you can win.
Most of the confusion here stems from the abuse of the word, "AI". That is the goal, and nothing else. "AI" does not (yet) exist. Every time we call something "an AI", we are telling a lie; and that lie turns the entire discussion away from logic and reason into magic and nonsense.

When we are dealing with a system that is made of logic and reason, we can use logic and reason to construct an understanding of that system. This is the explicit approach to understanding.

When we are dealing with a mysterious black box, we must take the implicit approach: using testing and inference to construct a model, we can construct an explicit understanding of that model. This is effectively the same process, but one step removed: we understand our model, not the system it applies to. That model may be incomplete and/or misaligned.

The human mind is a mysterious black box. We have made a lot of progress modeling that system, but our models are not complete or perfectly aligned.

While our study of the human mind is limited to the implicit approach, the human mind itself is capable of both implicit and explicit understanding.

So far, no software has been able to emulate that feature. Every tech that exists today uses only one of the two approaches.

> Anyway, long story short, fully explainable AI utterly sucks ass at many tasks that are like a walk on the park for blackbox AI.

What you have called "fully explainable AI" is any tech that uses the explicit approach. Because everything is explicitly defined, there is a clear place for logic to exist as part of the system. Because everything is explicitly defined, there is no room for ambiguity in the system.

What you have called "blackbox AI" is any tech that uses the implicit approach. Because nothing is literally defined, ambiguity can exist in the system. Because nothing is explicitly defined, there is no clear place for logic to exist in the system.

But is it really a black box? The program itself is explicitly defined! We should be able to use the explicit approach to understand it, just like we do any other software.
Apple has just released the first Rapid Security Response for Ventura
You are right with your disagreement, because the article starts quite sensational with this phrase and does not make it clear enough how different was USSR in different times. It is a typical mistake that many Western writers and readers make to judge Soviet Union based on Stalinism, NEP or Perestroika. Yet as the story in the article develops, you can find there that there was indeed some freedom about travel in Soviet Union. It is unfortunate that it does not cover all aspects of Soviet tourism and the rich culture around it.
This means that WASM is a garbage tool for this purpose and they should have gone a different route.

As a first responder, there are dispatch systems that can forward data like that to outside systems. The issue is that the dispatch systems aren't unified - in Kansas, for example, every county has it's own dispatch system set up it's own way, not tied to the others.
I agree that things don't necessarily have fixed values. However, that doesn't necessarily mean that price is an accurate reflection of that value.

Food has more value to someone who is starving than to someone who is well fed; even if the well fed person is willing and able to pay more for it.
Yes, but only partially -- You don't need to disclose details. You should disclose specific limitations while letting them know that those limitations come from a disability, along with what accommodations you need to perform your job.

If you tell them nothing, managing your condition is all on you. If you tell them, they are legally obligated to help you, and you are protected from discrimination.

Could it play against you? Maybe... but it definitely plays against you to deal with such problems alone.

(I should say that I'm speaking about laws in US... that might be a bad assumption. Different locations will have different laws.)
When you dismissively say “internet freedom”, what you really mean is “free expression”, “freedom of association”, “right to peaceably assembly”, and “right to petition your government for a redress of grievances”.

Haga has a flagged comment pointing out the purpose of this policy, and I can't figure out why it is flagged, so I'll just quote what the article says:

"It encouraged workers to vacation with groups of relative strangers as opposed to their friends and families. They were all part of a collective and that umbrella united them. In the Soviet Union, after all, the collective—not the family—was the most important social unit."

Yes, the purpose of the policy was to dismantle the commitment to the family and establish commitment to "the collective." This is also why the children were sent elsewhere.
Great detective work!

I mean, banks are allowed to curtail the egress of funds through rules limiting the velocity of funds. I see this in some of the recent high-interest yield offerings.

Sixth Tone is a state-owned English-language online magazine published by Shanghai United Media Group.

Bethany Allen-Ebrahimian of Foreign Policy stated that Sixth Tone has a less staid and "saccharine" tone compared to many other English-language publications from China. She stated, "If webby U.S. media startup Vox were acquired by the Chinese Communist Party, it might resemble Sixth Tone".

Most businesses don't need to develop a native application though. Most businesses don't even need an app in the store now that PWAs on iOS support push notifications and circumvent any Apple approval.

I know plenty of folks with incomes in the millions and net worths in the billions who use Android. How much people earn or are worth really isn't a good indicator of what device they'll use.

Remember when Apple pulled Fortnite from the iOS App Store? CoD Warzone seems to do alright on Android. Pokemon Go, anyone? Minecraft? Roblox? Given most people use Unity or Unreal engines, it's not difficult or any more meaningfully expensive to target Android as far as games go. Xbox Game Pass is a roaring success too, beating out even Google's own Stadia.

I remember getting a Lafayette 3-pickup electric guitar and building a Heathkit guitar amplifier. That thing had a dual-spring reverb too. I got a 4x12" speaker cabinet with Celstion speakers from the newspaper classifieds for $75. That thing was loud, and had a super high-frequency squeal when you turned it up. I think they just used a high-bandwidth amp design from their scopes rather than design a ground-up audio amp. But it taught me about oscillations, shocks from ungrounded chassis voltages, and electronics in general.
International treaties can hold to an extent. The greatest damage will be its internal use. Where countries can tell others to 'not interfere' in local business. Each country will run its own nefarious program and it will take a violent revolution to overthrow governments - and the next one will pick up the AI baton where the previous one left with a slogan of 'making sure no one does what the previous govt did'. So instead of an international global AI issue we will have strong national AI abuse. In either case, democracy will be put under strain.

Cost and complexity is probably one part of it.But more importantly, I imagine having a drone ahead of them would generate noise, thus decreasing stealth.

It's probably one of those things that shouldn't happen if you're doing everything else the "right" way.
The down voting of the parent is wholly unjustified. This is a factual reality that has already taken place and continues on to this day.

“The Nixon campaign in 1968, and the Nixon White House after that, had two enemies: the antiwar left and black people. You understand what I’m saying? We knew we couldn’t make it illegal to be either against the war or black, but by getting the public to associate the hippies with marijuana and blacks with heroin, and then criminalizing both heavily, we could disrupt those communities. We could arrest their leaders, raid their homes, break up their meetings, and vilify them night after night on the evening news. Did we know we were lying about the drugs? Of course we did.”
I seem to remember depletion-node FETs were available in the late 90s, which could have solved this problem in a more elegant way than a "lifetime" battery.

Been working on the past 2 years nearly 100% of my time outside of work a self-hosted media server for books and comics, Kavita.

The goal is to take the simplicity of Plex and bring that to comics, manga, and books (epub and pdf). There is so much potential with an app like this, esp with text to speech getting good.

The problem is, when no one trusts anything, it makes room for men who promise everything, but can deliver nothing. We call them "dictators" and "authoritarians", but others call them "strong men" because they are envied by those who seek power. If you look around the world, you can see authoritarian movements rising, especially here in the USA.
Saw a post about Nostr on here a week or so ago and haven't been able to stop thinking about it. I don't think it's likely to become the next platform (and the crypto stuff probably doesn't help), but I just find enjoyment with the minimal spec and how simple it all is.

I don't understand how moderation or handling the large transfers of duplicate data between relays and clients will work.
Most homes don't have HRVs not only due to cost, but because homes didn't used to be tight enough to require them. We also didn't understand how important fresh air is.

Many homes didn't have AC because a) it was expensive, and b) you used to not need it as much.

And plenty of people can afford these things, cost is not the only consideration nor some magic word to dismiss the tech generally.
And it's not unprecedented. It was in my lifetime that we found out that stomach ulcers could be caused by H. pylori infections. For many people, what'd previously been a chronic condition could be cured with a round of antibiotics.
Yes, but the definitions tend not to be consistent.

The best operational definition I got to was, it's ML when it involves a "machine" (possibly defined in software) that tries to 'optimise' some objective on behalf of a user; whereas AI involves some sort of Agent, who needs to demonstrate intelligence, that involve particular environments / states contexts, etc.

But, not everyone defines it like this. To many people AI is rapidly becoming "Neural Networks, particularly Deep ones", with ML becoming "Anything that is in scikit learn that isn't a neural network". Which isn't really a useful definition if you ask me.

Using the prime rate to control this specific type of inflation (mainly by corporations using "supply chain issues" to raise prices usuriously) is like using an AA gun on a mosquito swarm (mostly ineffective but causing massive collateral damage).
It is possible to find data on CS major average salary by school. For whatever measure of CS graduate quality you use, much of the difference across schools is probably due to differences in selectivity rather than teaching quality. I live in Massachusetts, and I am confident that MIT CS graduates are on average better than CS graduates of UMass Amherst (the state flagship university), who are on average better than CS grads of UMass Dartmouth (a less selective state university). That does not mean the teaching is better -- and probably what is taught should differ based on the average ability of students.
This cannot be further from truth. High ranking party members had access to "special distribution" stores whose selection of goods available was inferior to what your local 7-11 offers (not to mention the modern Russian supermarket chains for that matter).

They could get some of the things westerners had, but with extremely low bandwidth.
The problem is that the market doesn't actually give people the freedom to price things in accordance with the value it represents to them because people do not start out with equal ability to pay. For example, a rich person may be willing to pay a higher price for a second home even though it is likely less valuable to them then it would be to someone without a home.

Certainly, but shorthand usually gets corrupted by sloganeering and shuts down productive discussions over preference.

Once you realize all politics is preference, it’s illuminating to consider more nuanced strategy.
