The reason is different. When you need to scan 5 million IPs on 22 port is one thing, but 5 million IPs times 100 or 1000, then you simply run out of resources and since 99% of people use 22, why bother?
Company towns still exist in China. Heck, I think my wife owns a duplex in an education related development her father worked for. Full blown SOE company towns (not just buildings or neighborhoods) are stranger but then again employment is pretty much guaranteed for life (iron rice bowl) if you get to live there.

No, it’s the result of the massive shift in antitrust regulation from the Reagan era on, where US largely abandoned anti-monopoly enforcement, resulting in corporate concentration and collusion. The free market is “not a thing” because of a lack of real competition.

A Father Daughter conversation about Autism
I know how we approached it and it was a compromise as me and my spouse come from different worlds culturally. I personally think a lot has to do with 'my cousin/friend/fb friend did x and recommended it'. For a very new parent, it is not unreasonable to seek advice of their peers.

In our case compromise was: infant slept with us for a good half of their first year, but we slowly transitioned to a separate room with audio only radio ( no internet connection app craziness ).

All that said, we are already an outlier in our social circle that includes parents and about the only ones that have any concern about normalizing surveillance at such a young age ( and even that is mostly based on my preferences -- my SO takes my concerns into account ).
Email marketing significantly contributes to sales, sign-ups and interactions with your target group. If you’re not doing email marketing already, you’re missing out.

Get started right away. You can start simply with a newsletter and then expand from there with freebies, email flows and really get into email marketing.

Once you start, you’ll start to see that there are 2 primary KPIs you need to focus on: Opening rates and click-through rates. In this video, I go through 4 tips on how to easily improve this while improving your sender score simultaneously.

You’re being downvoted by people who don’t have a good argument against you

To them Silver could have said Trump had a 1% chance of winning, and they would still be saying “yOu dOnT uNdErStaNd stAtIstIcS!!1”

Basically, a lot of people really really really wanted to believe Hillary winning was a sure thing. They ignored any and all data saying “maybe she won’t”

And now you can see the effect looking back - these people are still so salty about that bitter loss that they come in here and say that giving Trump a <30% chance of winning was absolutely the right call and if you don’t see that then you’re an idiot who can’t grasp statistics

Literally - half the comments responding to me was this vitriolic idiocy. They can’t think, they’re emotions have overridden that

That’s why they downvoted you for accurately pointing out that there’s no such thing as knowing that a statistical guess was “right”

They’re downvoting you because you upset them by making them accept reality. That they were wrong and the Hillary couldn’t win.

> The US Government has gone to War with or at the very least militarily involved with the entire World except for 3 countries: Andorra, Bhutan, and Liechtenstein

Cyprus, Switzerland, Malta, Scandinavia, Finland, Luxembourg, Spain and Portugal (unless you count them allowing US bases as "militarily involved", but that doesn't cause bad blood so doubt it), Mongolia, Nepal, all of the former Soviet Union (except stuff like paying to get nuclear waste and weapons properly disposed of, which is even less of "militarily involved" and even less cause for bad blood), big chunks of Africa - Morocco, Algeria and Tunis (unless you count Operation Torch to free the Vichy France protectorates in favour of Free), South Africa, Rwanda, South Sudan, etc. Just off the top of my head, and I'm sure I'm missing a bunch even if I might be mistaken on one or two.

All that to say, there's no need to exaggerate American warmongering, imperialism and neo-colonialism. It has done insurmountable damage to many counties and resulted in millions if not tens of millions of dead, all for profits of American corporations. Exaggerating it makes it more easily refutable and minimises the suffering caused.

Citation very much needed.

> You might want to include India in the list too. And it should come as a surprise to you that there are plenty of other countries, who have been historically neutral, are badly wanting to diversify and de-dollarize

Historically neural implies something has changed by de-dollarising. Nobody owes the US trade in USD. If sovereign countries want to trade with their own currencies, more power to them.

Aside from the Euro, can somebody name a currency between independent nation states which has worked at scale as a new fiat declaration?

Making the Euro happen required a bunch of things. including the Maastricht treaty and 30 years of commitment to the goal (the idea floated in the 60s)

It required a lot of long term planning. It required some declarations of relative value which go to the heart of economies.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Currency_union suggests that micro-economies have gone there more than G20 ones. The french colonial franc, the carribean shared currencies are really not good exemplars.

I do not believe the R or C are willing (yet) to make the kinds of declarations of relative fiscal worth, which would permit a monetary union. It would be like Britain having to face up to "but the dollar is 1/5th of a pound" not being true after 1958

Yeah I read that last time there was a big thread about this on HN. It’s all pretty inconclusive.
My clearest takeaways from that were that doing sleep training too early is not recommended, and that there was no observed long term difference in kids either way. And that we shouldn’t judge folk who need or want to try such things because they’re working parents, depressed, or have other family problems caused by lack of sleep.

Right because rockets to nowhere are a divine mandate.

You’re coming across like a giant baby. No one else owes deference to you either.

Grow up, child; you’re not alone in this reality.
Case in point: As someone who was born in an English speaking community but moved to Switzerland (German speaking part) as a child, I had a hard time figuring out what a "spelling bee" was - you know, that trope from tv? It's... just not a thing here in Switzerland and I'm sure it isn't a thing in any neighboring countries.

The language our script most suits is Italian. It's way more regular than Spanish, though your point "you can pronounce it" (from reading alone) is an important one - it might be tricky in French or Spanish or German to figure out exactly how to spell a word, but most kids can pronounce any written word correctly after their first year of reading. Sometimes learning where to stress Greek/Latin-based words can be a bit difficult to figure out, but follows a pattern that is easily picked up.
The Fed started blowing up banks in its attempt to crush worker wages because when you kill a 1,000,000 plus people, disable countless more, force a bunch of early retirements etc you have to jack up rates super high, super fast to overcome wage increases from the resulting labor shortage. People who read the WSJ work at and invest in banks and don’t like to lose their shirts. So, they’re conceding to a little internecine war among the ownership class in the hope that the financiers can squelch the corporate price fixers before the banking system implodes.
These days it is about exploiting willingness to pay, so (some) companies tend to model how much they can charge or how to charge more (incl. by increasing consumer surplus). Overcharging is less likely in such a setting.
The whole point of a poll/stat prediction from the intuitive human standpoint is to get a good gauge on how likely outcomes are

Silver, as well as all other mainstream polls/predictions in the race had Hillary winning by “the greatest margin in presidential history”

You can try and whitewash it but we all remember that. We all remember how hopeless trump looked and how bulletproof hillary’s victory was

To say Silver and all the other polls weren’t framing this as a landslide victory for hillary and a humiliating defeat for trump is just living in a false alternate reality in one’s mind.

And judging by these responses that seems to be the more common state of mind for folks here to be in…
> I didn’t even realize there was a “Mastodon” entity or “Mastodon’s app.”

There isn't, really. There's an official "Mastodon" instance and accompanying app (that supports other instances), both made by the Mastodon lead developer. OP seems to be going hyperbolic over them recommending the lead developer's instance when you're onboarding. Not really the end of the world, but as a non-Twitter user I'm willing to believe I'm missing something too.

Fear not, though. Mastodon is still Open Source, ActivityPub is still alive, and the lead dev seems to mostly care about catering to Mastodon users rather than Twitter ones.
Why not synthesize the two approaches? Reinforcement learning from factual accuracy.

Use a language model to run queries against another language model and check if it’s hallucinating.

Say we have two language models A and B, A is the verifier and B is being trained.

We give A accesses to a ground truth database, and then we get it to generate questions it knows the answer to based off of its knowledge base.

A asks B those questions and then it verifies Bs output against its knowledge base and we use the veracity of Bs output as the reward function.

Ask HN: How do you manage your enterprise GitHub repositories?
I developed an internal web application allowing us to centrally manage our repositories configurations, pipelines and launch orchestrated deployments from GitHub as we were not able to do so in a straightforward way from the GitHub interface (we have around 50 microservices and I was in charge of releases).

I am wondering if other people around here have this kind of problems and if it might be worth to open source this project.
To me, that's like saying if you have read it, you are breaking copyright by answering questions about it. Memorizing is one thing, but if it isn't printing it out for the user, then what copyright issue has it presented?

> Results
One hundred eight intervention and 107 control families provided six-week follow-up information with complete actigraphy data for 96 in each group: 96.9 % of intervention and 97.9 % of control infants had an average of 2 or more nightly wakes, a risk difference of −0.2 % (95 % CI: −1.32, 0.91). 4 % of intervention and 14 % of control infants had parent-assessed severe sleep problems: relative risk 0.3, a risk difference of −10 % (CI: 0.11, 0.84-16.8 to −2.2). Relative to controls, intervention parents reported improved baseline-adjusted parental depression (CI: −3.7 to −0.4), fatigue (CI: −5.74 to −1.68), sleep quality (CI: −1.5 to −0.2), and sleep cognitions: doubts (CI: −2.0 to −0.6), feeding (CI: − 2.1 to - 0.7), anger (CI: − 1.8 to - 0.4) and setting limits (CI: −3.5 to −1.5).

> Conclusions
The intervention improved caregivers' assessments of infant sleep problem severity and parental depression, fatigue, sleep, and sleep cognitions compared with controls.

This is largely true for myself - sleep training is for the parents to get some semblance of their lives back.

When you can't intermediate in dollars (sanctions) you don't intermediate in dollars.

Sometimes, you want the explosives or oil more than you care about price.

The question really is, what % of world economy will be de-dollarised in 25 years time, assuming sanctions at scale end in 25 years (they haven't for Iran. Uk and Us still hold bank assets and have unfullfilled but fully paid up weapons orders on the books from the 1970s.)

I would be surprised if there isn't a significant grey market at world scale in goods transfer which simply isn't denominated at all -The "fictional" value of drugs for instance, is almost meaningless when randomly 75% of your supply chain is lost at sea. "street price" is whatever you can get. How much it's "worth" would demand somebody does realistic pricing against the % of drug supply which even resembles what it's called.

Right now, because Sanctions, Iranian and Russian Oil might as well be cocaine. Does Russia really care what currency its denominated in, if it gets a truckload of SAM missile parts?

If you were supplying goods and services to a narco-economy, what currency do you really want anyway? You can buy goods and services with drugs. Why bother with money?

Classic sources on gears:

- "Spinning Levers", a Jam Handy film.[1] This is a good basic intro to what gears really do.

- "Gearology" from Boston Gear.[2] This is what you need to know to buy gears.

The original article talks a lot about involute gears, but doesn't explain a key motivation for that tooth form. An involute gear will mesh with a straight-sided rack, which can be thought of as an infinite-radius gear. All gears which will mesh with the same rack will mesh with each other. So you only need N gear sizes, not N^2.

This only works for spur gears. Worm gears and helical gears are matched pairs.

How? Airtags only work because Apple uses any iPhone with BLE support as a detector, whether or not an app is installed. An off-brand BLE beacon would require an app to work at all, and I highly doubt Apple would make it easy for a third party app to run all the time in the background.
When I read this, it sounded very familiar. This is also how some Allwinner tablets derive their MAC address. And wow, it turns out it is an Allwinner based device!

I found it out because we sold Allwinner devices and customers complained that after an update the MAC address changed. The MAC address is set at boot time, but the algorithm used was different in the binaries we got from Allwinner, and the source we used for compiling the update. They do have a reputation for not taking GPL too seriously.

I could imagine in this case, the source-code version of libcdx_stream was supposed to give the proper machine ID that Allwinner uses in other places, but somebody sloppily patched it out for their encryption scheme.
> The convergence of parental anxiety and tech access can extend surveillant care into a total system, reaching past the baby and any employee in the home or daycare center to the street beyond. Increasingly, technophilic and/or anxious families are turning to websites like Nextdoor and smart home systems like Alexa, Google Home, Nest Cams, and Ring, not only to help with domestic management but to reinforce the barrier between the outside and the inside, keeping the outside out. These technologies slip from self-surveillance (when should I reorder my groceries?) to familial surveillance (what is my child watching?) to surveilling anyone who might come into contact with one’s children.

The battle for the hearts of parents is already concluded. Now Amazon and such just need to unveil consumer tech which is good enough. The idea that you can have a camera on your front door to see everyone is appealing to way too many people.
