SpaceX Starship’s debris field raises questions amid FAA launch probe
It is defined as clean because they don't just put up a big chimney and let all the waste go into the air where it is someone else problem to fix.

The closes comparison to nuclear power in term of environmental impact is underground mining, except that nuclear generally do not impact ground water. Both produce a lot of toxic waste products, and both store it where it hopefully won't get into contact with any human being.

We invent dishwashers, washing machines, baby monitors, vacuums, television, HVAC etc and the life of a housewife, particularly after the children go to school was made comparatively much easier and much more comfortable, that was the moment we somehow all decided that being a housewife was slavery and its better to commute to an office and do all those chores on the weekend.

In the next few decades productivity doubled and wages were halved relative to productivity. Has to be the biggest scam in human history.
When some people (like me) say "Java", they mean the Java Platform, and they call what you call Java "the Java language". When you say JVM, I assume you mean the Java Platform minus the language (the language is ~3-5% JDK, the JVM is about 25%). People who use "the JVM" but not "Java" use ~97% of Java, i.e. the Java platform.
> . FAAMG can run much larger immediate deficits in order to corner the market on the eventual profitability of AI.

This assumes that there is a corner-able market. Previously, the cost of training was the moat. That appears to have been more of a puddle under the gate than an actual moat.
Today, a school shooting that only killed four people would barely make the news.
I worked on a product that required DNS changes to set up. Especially for business accounts, the level of friction was STUNNING. We had it take months to get set up because the contact had to submit a ticket to IT, write up the business justification, get director level approval, get security approval, and so on before it could get done. We had customers who couldn't even figure out which group in their company managed DNS. Yeah, you can argue that those companies are broken, but as an outsider I have no influence over that. The result was just that they couldn't use our product. On the flip side, we had consumer and small business customers who had purchased domains through simple webhosting things that didn't give them the required level of access to create a record (and/or they couldn't figure out how to do it). We eventually added an HTTP option and the success rate and time to success both improved hugely.
I'd rather unban everything, legalize everything and instead have people take an aptitude test to determine how well they can deal with all aspects of the internet. There should probably be grade school and high school classes to harden people against all facets of unstable people. An Internet version of the Agoge [1].

If a student does not pass the class they are sent to an advanced training camp to fix their nutrition, get them off all prescription drugs and teach them how to verbally joust with the master trolls.

That sucks, but just seems weird in general, not to you specifically. You never hear about these things happening on random cheap Android phones or PC laptops. Well, at least I don't, but you hear about them semi-frequently regarding Apple products.

Anecdotally, I've had numerous Android phones (granted, almost all Google Pixels) and I've just used any random USB cable to charge and never thought about it and never have had any problems.
I disagree that Erlang is an ur-language (it's too close to the Self and Prolog ur-languages to be its own, IMO), but I do agree that OTP/ERTS could be a sort of ur-framework or ur-runtime, for exactly the reasons you describe: even explicit attempts to implement "Erlang-style concurrency in $LANGUAGE" routinely only cover some superficial "yeah we've got actors that pass messages and maybe supervise one another" without covering preemptive multitasking, hot-reloading of functions, distribution across nodes, and the myriad other features that give Erlang its reputation for extreme fault-tolerance.
The #line directive essentially requires that you either handle macros directly in the compiler or add a syntax extension to carry that info over the wall.
It's probably because biometrics support (via fingerprint sensors et al) isn't a standard part of the Linux desktop/notebook "platform"; and so most Linux devices would just be prompting you for a password to unlock your passkey anyway (like prompting for an SSH passphrase to unlock an SSH key) — at which point, why bother, if the whole goal was just to eliminate the possibility of being phished?
Tip for vi+Kinesis users: swap ↑ and ↓ to match j and k. (It'll take a few days to get used to.)

More NYC restaurants using reverse ATMs to get around ‘Cash-22’ dilemma
Discord Forcing Users to Pick New User Names
The reason why proprietary software ever had a moat simply comes down to: software startups could dump investment capital onto the development process and achieve results much faster, with better user interfaces, allowing them to achieve path dependence in their customer base. Thus we had a few big application verticals that were ultimately won by MS Office, Adobe Photoshop, etc.

If the result here is as marginal as it seems - a few months of advantage in output quality and a slightly more sleek UI - the capital-intensive play doesn't work. The featuresets that industrial users want the most depend on having more control over the stack, not on UI or output quality. The open source models are stepping up to this goal of "cheap and custom". Casual users can play with the open models without much difficulty either, provided they take a few hours to work through an installation tutorial - UI isn't a major advantage when the whole point is that it's a magic black box.

I'm not saying we should keep inefficient work. The society hopefuly adapts and creates a safety net for upcoming changes. I'm pissimist, so I think more pain is coming and no way are we going to be allowed to have a repeat of 1917 in Russia. Just more rejects, outcasts and general misery.

Your ranking isnt very good, and I see repeated articles; google auth and drone on kremlin, which is really not significant news at all. The google auth thing is given a ranking of 6.8 (highest currently) and "debt limit could send US economy into recession is lower at 6.5", which seems like a much much bigger issue

New effective Alzheimer drug is even lower
Really poor equivocation re: 2-cyls. Engine performance and efficiency is one of the primary and critical aspects that define the ability effectively travel between places, which, again is the entire purpose of a car.

Engine (drivetrain really) power, torque, efficiency, durability and reliabilty are core aspects of a vehicle. Being able to accelerate (and brake) when needed is important. Watching a YouTube vehicle in traffic is not. Carmakers should be focused on improving drivetrains, handling (chassis, suspension, brakes, etc.), safety in collisions (including pedestrians/cyclists). Not on introducing a bunch of superfluous luxuries that only serve to drive up the cost of a car (and make people worse, more distracted, more selfish drivers).

Edit: It's not ludditism to oppose needless 'improvements' that increase the complexity, cost, supply chain requirements, weight, and fragility of a vehicle. It's utilitarian.
Actually bike subscriptions are really convenient
Ah thanks. Wish I'd seen this before I embarked on things! I muddled my way through doing things like:

nix-env -iA nixpkgs.rPackages.tidyr

This seemed to work fine for things like R and Vim and some dependencies, but didn't work so well for R packages which I think all needed to be compiled and installed from R.

I'm very pleased to have a working set up now, with neovim/nvimR/R/git etc. remarkably similar to my regular set up, so many thanks for these tips!

As I said below, this really depends on whether "the people" was intended as singular, or plural.

In the bill of rights itself we have two very similar amendments (the 1st and 2nd) that are phrased differently despite being about universal rights. And unfortunately the 1st has often enough been interpreted by the courts as a collective right, not a singular right, and that can't all hang on the collective meaning of the word "assemble". "or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances"

> Besides, the "militia" includes every able-bodied male between 17 and 45.

Under current federal statute, but this can easily be changed.
That makes so much sense. I wish the EU (and/or European countries in general) would enact something similar but I think may be too late to do the same here now. Way too many stupid little fiefdoms "owned" by socially powerful people with short-sighted self interests.

The US did it in 1895 before the massive expansion of that particular social class. Smart.

(I guess a similar social class is doing very well in "non-profits" in the US these days, instead.)
GPT-4 is a must if tool using is your goal.

GPT-3.5, I think it is mostly suitable for:

2. Lightweight documents writing and rewriting

3. Translation

Can people still fork the project and move it forward?

If they can do it, it's OSS through and through.

If the company decides to withdraw support and the project dies, it's not the fault of the company. The community was just not interested in embracing it.
It sure can, the legal system will never be perfect though I'd seriously question where you live if there's any feasible chance of randomly selecting an entire jury of KKK members

What is the point of a jury in your opinion, if not to act as a check on the legal system itself? If all we want is a list of the current laws as written and someone to compare evidence against it as a checklist, why bother adding potential inaccuracies by asking a jury of people who aren't trained in the law?
What is the easy fix? Use the .well-known/ standard instead of the current mechanisms, and roll back verification for anyone who’s already been verified with the flawed approach?
It has been 20+ years since slashdotting with the requisite hardware and connection upgrades and still things fall over.
Monthly fee for the privilege of allowing banks to profit off of your money. Fees for moving bits in a database. It's insane that people actually buy these "services".
Navigating Team Development with the Tuckman Model and AI
I submit that the first step of the hyperinflation is everywhere and always the collapse in productivity AKA supply. Then the cycle you describe takes effect and you are correct.

I've done some research on the subject and I've never found an historical counterexample, so if you have one I'd be very interested.
> The upgrades do not change how far the vehicles can drive on a charge, according to Mercedes, assuming normal driving.

What a funny statement. "Assuming normal driving" means not using the extra power you would be paying for.
I've never used Discord so am a bit confused. Do the random numbers added to your name change, or do they assign 4 random numbers permanently when the name is creaated?
I think the difference is that Maps is a product and its hard to copy a whole product and make it good without someone driving the vision. But a model is just a model, in terms of lines of code they aren't even that large. Sure the ideas behind the are complicated and take a lot of thought to come up with, but just replicating it or iterating it is obviously not the challenging based on recent developments.
> We’re looking at a bespoke domain ownership verification mechanism that doesn’t handle its primary usecase well

Okay this is exactly what I mean. How well do you know the AT Protocol? Because this comment seems to indicate you just learned about it from this link, yet you're still making grand claims like this.

This method of validating your identity isn't the primary one. It's not even documented! It was added two weeks ago, as an API endpoint to help serve moderation and administrative needs. Turns out the URL structure of the rest of the API is a bad call for this endpoint.

> and attempting to fill a sensitive niche,

If you want to criticize AT Protocol on privacy issues, there are far more important things that are closer to the fundamental aspect of the design to criticize.
yes, for all practical purposes stockfish understands chess.
For most practical purposes ChatGPT understands how to string tokens together.

But in AGI, G is the important bit, and neither Stockfish nor ChatGPT have demonstrated general understanding of the world.
I think that's how it looks from the outside, but people I know who have bought these cars look at it different.

They like the attention to detail of mercedes and the quietness.

They like the attention to detail of bmw and the performance.

But this move sort of pulls back the curtain between the marketers in charge at these companies and their view of the customers. "they are price insensitive and will pay more without worrying".

But really - you don't want to piss off a first-class customer. it's easy to get under their skin if you treat them with disrespect and they remember.
Some things never change.

If you're talking about Burst then it would be more correct to say they added another language that is similar to but different than C#. AOT Burst builds a native library so I don't believe there's a C++ step.

Got an old high school friend who retired from Brinks and he was talking to me last night about reverse ATM's. You put money into the machine and receive a debit card in return.

I told him that I am not sure I like the idea. But I can see how businesses would like it. Imagine a laundromat or a car wash that didn't have to handle all those coins.

ok well there probably is somewhere here but I just scrolled through 20 comments and everybody was talking about how Mercedes sucks and this was a dick move, and also that the people who thought that it was a cool move were losers and I'm starting to wonder if these people with opinions that to me seem super unlikely actually exist in any sizable numbers.
It's short for simpleton.
Ugh. I misremembered terms. Look up control plane and data plane. This is well understood.
oh no they have car DLC now? This is a nightmare. With what Ive learned recently about cobalt mining and the dependencies EVs have on them, it sounds to me like were better off with combustion engines.

I completely don't follow this - I think you're referencing something I'm unfamiliar with?
I wonder, do people realize that this technology renders the whole 'content moderation' debate as completely moot? If all content can be altered, easily, there's no one to moderate. You can't block an app on everyone's phone that shifts the tone or voice or lens of anything that is consumed online. People will sign up for the lens that they want. A very few will want the raw, unfiltered data version--people with a propensity for raw data, or who need to do research--the type of people who collect hand-recorded bootlegs of live concerts. There will be a branch of history devoted to verification of what really happened, but it will be esoteric. "Reality" as something that is legible on the internet is dead.

at some point unbundling becomes extreme lack of transparency and customer-hostility if not a downright scam.

there are such things as externalities and transaction costs. they are manufacturing externalities and transaction costs to their benefit.

some companies put out the initial product with high-quality parts and as soon as it gets good reviews and traction they sub out cheaper parts. you could say if they didn't do that they'd have to charge more, they are giving early adopters an incentive or something, people should research which parts they are getting and let the market sort it out. if you value your time and expect reliable information from reviewers it's your problem.

today everything is a SaaS and you are permanently in a hostage situation where your car could get remotely downgraded, they could stop supporting it or discontinue a feature.

a market is a set of legal and social conventions and this is a pretty bad one. if you like markets you should want them to not be hellish, which means reasonable rules and conventions.
I know that, my point is that it’s not indicating anything nefarious enough to be worth exposing, it’s just juicy.

I don’t think the media should share stuff like this just because it’s interesting. They’re making a market for corporate espionage to sell clicks.
When I used it, it didn't feel like a product. It felt like a demo. If I have to rely on some bot in a public forum, I'm not sure I like this product.
Agreed. I pay for MJ and have several SD versions running on my PC. I like the ability to fine tune the SD models and my Pc with a 4090 is plenty fast, but I can't match MJ's output on artistic quality. SD allows for 4k sized outputs which is great but I can't use the art like I would like. FWIW the SD NSFW community is large but that is not where I invest my time with AI art.

In one sense, you the customer are still using cash, so it should be a nop.

But, what's to say that machine (for whatever reason) doesn't like the look of your cash (or you? will they have little pin hole cameras sending data to face recognition back in central reverse) and refuses to spit out a card?

I don't like it either and I think this could be challenged in court, in NYC.

I will spell it out for you, since you were so kind to spell it out for me: consumers' power is limited by the interests of corporations. When a corporation can fix what is viewed by the consumer as a mistake without significant financial downsides, they frequently will (if the consensus is strong enough that it really was a mistake). However, they will not fix anything that causes them financial hardship unless forced to by the legal system.
In my first C compiler, I combined the lexer and preprocessor. That was a mistake. The (much) later one I wrote, Warp, tokenized and then preprocessed. It was much easier to work with.
