The homeless can receive mail. General Delivery, mail addressed to them care-of some charity organization or shelter, any family or friend.

Mail forwarding is a thing for those who move, although TBH it would be prudent to use the "Do not forward" option on this, as mail forwarding itself is prone to fraudulent usage.

I guess if you've moved, you would need to mail them proof that you lived at the old address and that you live at the new address. I had to do that to claim unclaimed property with the state -- I had to send them some old bills or legal documents showing the old and new addresses.

"there's no way to do so ephemerally, " - there are ways people can be issued anonymous tokens, 3rd party verifications, regs against recording the data with strong regulatory authority.

The notification doesn't fire until you've been moving along with the tag for a while, so the vehicle has already been stolen by the time the thieves are aware there's an AirTag present. I guess it might encourage them to dump the vehicle somewhere and abandon it, and you can then go pick it up using the AirTag's last known location. Doesn't really prevent the initial theft, but improves your chances for recovering the vehicle.

It makes me wonder what hn/dang is going to do if a law enforcement agency (a country’s Govt representative) asks info on an hn user? What all HN collects and keep (email is optional, yes)?

It's pretty low to take money from people for new signups, while knowing that features are broken for your existing customers and doing nothing to even acknowledge you're aware of it. When it's pointed out here on HN, idlewords (Pinboard owner/operator) just turns up and makes comments mocking everyone and leaves again.

My pinboard account still works fine too but I moved to raindrop.io recently because it's the same thing as Pinboard, done better, with apps, and a dev that cares.

I think a better way to think about it is that LLMs can only "hallucinate", that is they create output statistically from input. That the output can sometimes, when the words are read and modeled mentally by a human, correspond with fact, is really the exception and just luck. The LLM literally has no clue about anything, and by design, never will.

Bring Sydney Back – Prompt Injection through a web page

I think the lack of success of iMessage in the rest of the world is the only reason Apple has been able to maintain iMessage as a closed one platform chat protocol.

Nobody uses iMessage or SMS in the EU these days, but if usage was like in the US then I suspect that Apple would have already been forced long ago to open up or release clients for other platforms. The US is very unlikely to make demands, but the EU doesn't mess around with this kind of thing.

Of course, knowing Apple, they might also respond to such a scenario by removing iMessage on EU phones and keeping it the same in the US.

It sucks, but I understand why someone might be forced to swap to a specific product or device for social reasons. Shame though.

"Installing new modules on an existing Cardinal binary is not possible at run-time, but we can add new modules to the build."[1]

From the original release — being able to select 3rd-party plugins a la carte is probably Rack's most important feature, both for users and developers. Apparently there's a technical reason: "Cardinal is intentionally a fully self-contained plugin, Whatever is contained in the current build is what you can use"[2], but it seems like Rack Pro makes it work so I'm not sure why that's the case.

Jack Dorsey’s Bluesky Emerges as Latest Challenger to Elon Musk’s Twitter
I can't claim expertise on Africa, something I would add though is that many Africans from Kenya, for example, that I've talked to, generally blame British imperialism for many of the problems today. Because they drew country borders willy-nilly around tribes, sometimes even splitting tribes between countries, and culturally the tribes only vote for their own, the countries are ruled by majority tribes which become the rich and leading class. Ethiopia has this problem too for example. Then tribalism + continued tensions just keep going from there.

Of course there is the rampant corruption. There are also collective community policing strategies too in some communities, for example.

In the African Union I have high hopes for the continent, but still I think there is a a very large, very large, very large barrier to overcome because of the infighting.

As far as the unionization, I think if handled right it can have lower downsides for the amount of bargaining power that it provides. It seems that a lot of African culture thrives on ad-hoc person-to-person movements, so this feels very much within the lines of what could work in Africa. But tribalism inside of each country and between countries could still keep any local movements from having a larger impact within the continent even if, say, a local union is successful.

In any case, it basically moves the Nash Equilibrium but doesn't necessarily abolish it. If handled poorly, or if the company retaliates, then sure, if the company is willing to run the press gauntlet and such. But at the very least, I have hopes.

Also I know of the conflict in Somalia, Ethiopia, South & North Sudan, etc. I haven't checked in on Kenya in a while. I hope all is well over there, it is generally a very beautiful and safe country with a few notable exceptions. Has something happened, or is it in the list mainly due to proximity to the conflict (or something like that?) :'( </3

> Given that nobody has found concrete evidence of any phenomena being supernatural ever,

I'm going to take issue with this. Anytime we sufficiently understand something it stops becoming supernatural and becomes natural. For a long time lightening, and disease were considered supernatural.

To assume there cannot exist things or beings we do not yet understand about the universe simply because we cannot explain it is the height of huburis.

> The issue is that it's _their_ job to look out for their children.

Perhaps, but society seems to be increasingly creating hostile environments for parents and their children. Immediate and constant access to unlimited pornography is the tip of the iceberg. Social media has been shown to be highly toxic to young adults. Most digital content, be it social media, video games, etc is being explicitly designed to addict users, especially children. Education is crumbling. Food is loaded with artificial sweeteners and additives making them addictive and unhealthy. Local communities and support have decayed. And all the while the average income in comparison to inflation has cratered, making it more difficult for parents to actually spend time away from work to actually parent.

The ability of parents to raise healthy, well adjusted children has gotten much more difficult in recent decades, largely due the pursuit of profit over human well-being. You can disagree with individual laws, but you should not simply bury your head in the sand and respond to every attempt to help parents out with “just do your job and parent!”
These were non-uniformed undercover police that intercepted the guy. In this scenario it's very plausible to think you're about to be robbed, and hitting a 'lock device until I return home' panic button could never be considered any of those things given the circumstances (under UK law, anyway.)
Healthcare systems always struggle with implementing anything.

I'd say that US hospitals are a hot mess, and AI (or any hew technology) adoption in the Healthcare system is also automatically a hot mess. So I'd say AI adoption in US hospitals would be a hot mess in a dumpster fire in a whatever the next thing was.
One thing which I did not see specifically mentioned was the potential economic motivation for hospitals to rely on AI to do the doctor's job instead of hiring more or better doctors. That is to say, hospitals will make business level decisions to replace talent with AI tools to save on the bottom line regardless of whether or not it will benefit the patients.

There is far too much sensationalization of much of this tech. The continued aggrandizement of it as a better-than-human solution for things will encourage premature adoption to the detriment of others. It's irresponsible.

Incorrect.

These drugs were legal at the time. I blame myself for my own actions(but it was almost a decade ago and I have moved on, which is why I'm comfortable being open about it), but blame is not always singular. The state is also partially to blame because they banned all the good drugs, leading to grey markets with dangerous, untested, experimental drugs.

As for my friend, I had nothing to do with what happened to him, I only met him after the fact.
England (but not the UK) has caesaropapism rather than theocracy (they are similar in the absence of Church-State separation, but in theocracy the Church supervises the secular authority, where the reverse is true in caesaropapism.)
Then appeal it, but that's not a question this court can answer about this case. They made the decision they have to make. The appeals court is the one that can rule on constitutionality.
Thanks, and it appears to show the problem is now resolved (which is our experience as well).

> Ocasio-Cortez said the "ability to individually trade stock erodes the public's trust in government."

Actually, it's worse than that. It erodes trust in the entire system. Not only can they trade on privileged information, they can use their power to influece industry, markets, etc.

Random example: for-profit prisons. Have a handful of representatives benefitted from stock trades and the privatization of prisons? Probably. But that's nothing compared to the cost of the sociopolitical damage caused by The Prison Industrial Complex that those representatives enabled.

Look how many politicians leave office for jobs that pay 10x more. We're told it is for their future influence. But how often is it for served-special-interests job well done? Let's not be naive.

And while we're on the general subject, how is it the SC doesn't have a formal code of ethics?
What I mean is, the reason it's 71%-28% is that the actual % difference between predicted votes is very small. Once the estimated votes are say 10% apart, then you start getting a prediction that's more like 99%-1%, and the polls are much more likely to be telling you accurately who will actually win.

In this case the prediction is pretty close to just a 50/50 coin flip, but that's quite unusual and reflective of the chance legitimately being close to 50/50. Therefore I wouldn't say it invalidates polls in general.
The difference is that IBM made abstractions of machines work through several generations of hardware. That abstraction has let them maintain software compatibility at a binary level for longer than any other vendor... you can literally take production programs written for and running on the System/38 and migrate them to modern iSeries systems.

IBM's methods have let them maintain compatibility despite moving the iSeries through several generations of hardware. It originally ran on their IPMI cpu, then later was migrated to the RS64, and now runs on POWER series hardware, the same as AIX (and in fact virtual instances can share chassis hardware with AIX instances).

So in fact there are services to companies still running today that originally ran on IBM's mainframes that have been migrated and migrated again, and have essentially always been up and available. The companies aren't forced to spend the money and time to plan upgrades because their previous hardware and OS isn't supported any more (contrast to Microsoft).

Lots of companies advertise upward compatibility. Some of them manage it for a single generation of hardware... after all, virtual machines are a thing. Continually migrating upward over a span of 45+ years is a technical achievement not matched by any other company.

The down side to this is that they're bound in some sense by technical decisions made long ago... so they can't modernize their software environment like e.g. Apple can.

>and the book that inspired it

Genuinely wondering - Where do those other sources differ, and why are they authoritative enough to mean the book Alexander Hamilton may as well be complete fiction? Looking online, I can't really find much contemporary criticism of its accuracy from the time of its release or afterwards, just general acclaim from book reviewers. I can't find much academic opinion of it either way, save for one review I don't have library access to but seems to have a positive first page.[0]

I'm not really familiar with the musical, but I did find a few articles noting Ron Chernow consulted on its historical accuracy. I wouldn't really hold a musical theater production to the same standard of historic accuracy as a biography, though, so I am more curious why you describe the biography as "complete fiction."
