> According to the WTO, those are overgenerous and the same as subsidies (check Airbus' cases against Boeing for illegal subsidies).

Interesting that you have to point to Boeing because no such case exists for SpaceX.

And all of those contracts for SpaceX were cheaper then what Arianespace could have offered, or any US competitor.

You are just parating lies that ArianeGroup has been spouting for a decade because they have no technical way to compete. Its literally just false propaganda.

The reality is ArianeGroup has and had subsidies far, far, far larger then what SpaceX had. The total cost of the original Falcon 9 was maybe 400M and maybe 300M of that was part of the governments program to get private supply for ISS (that the Europeans handed over to the US and SpaceX to do because they couldn't do it cheaply).

In comparison Ariane 6 is costing the government 4 billion $ minimum, likely more.

If anybody has grounds to complain with the WTO its SpaceX.
It has no more standing than speculating that the suicide was related to a failed relationship with a coworker. And even in that case, a failed relationship is not usually the cause of suicide, even if it's a precipitating factor. Causes generally tie back to systemic issues.

Of all the ways one can die, suicide stems from the most deeply complex and systemic factors in one's life. To sit here and speculate about the cause with no information is irresponsible and I'd argue at the heart of what's wrong with social media today. For some reason people feel the need to have answers, even poorly considered speculation. I'd argue that it's far better to be willing to accept that there are times that require us to just withhold speculation until there's enough information to do so responsibly.

Whatever the cause turns out to be, these early discussions are the last contact most people will have with the topic, meaning whatever speculations are shared are likely to be the primary memories of those involved.

This community is quick to demand evidence and citations on most subjects (and rightly so), and this should be no different.
Do they publish what exactly is being fixed? I can't find much on google other than complaints from some people getting a botched install.
I guess it depends on what your definition of "the future" is.

If it's teams of 10X devs working around the world to make the next great Google-scale app, then yeah, maybe React or something like it is the future.

If it's a bunch of individual devs making small things that can be tied together over the old-school Internet, then something like HTMX moves that vision forward, out of a 90-00s page-link, page-link, form-submit flow.

Of course, the future will be a bit of both. For many of my various project ideas, something like React is serious overkill. Not even taking into account the steep learning curve and seemingly never-ending treadmill of keeping current.

That's exactly what Twitter has done for most of its history, if India demanded something be removed, that wasn't against Twitters own rules, then it would be blocked in India but remain visible to the rest of the world. That's why the redaction clumsily says the tweet has been "withheld in Worldwide", normally there would be a specific country there instead of Worldwide.

It should go without saying that enforcing every state-requested takedown worldwide would be a complete shitshow. A social media site where you can't post anything that angers any government, even the most authoritarian, would be unusable for many purposes.
Deliberately misquoting to change meaning isn't cool.
That kind of myopic thinking is exactly why google might be in trouble.

Think about the problem, not your current solution.

"I'm hungry"

"I need to do my taxes"

"My code dont work right"

Searching for info is a solution to those problems, not the solution. The promise of AI (might take a while to get there) is having an agent that you trust to solve those problems for you.

Completely agree.

For a while I did run a fork of the Signal Server. Beyond the sheer difficulty getting it to run without the server being updated for a year during the mobilecoin launch, it was extremely disconcerting to see PHONE NUMBERS spread throughout the log messages. It doesn't take much imagination to see how you can build a network of who you are talking to (etc.) from this log information.

While it is quite possible that they had some non-default log configuration (and hopefully the metadata leaking in the logs is fixed), if you can't run the server you can't check what data is being leaked.

Take the E2EE claim with a grain of salt if it is difficult to run a server.
I've been wearing nothing but Darn Tough for the last decade. They last awhile. After a few years a few get small holes or the elastic wears out. I save them up until I get 6 or so pair and send them back to Darn Tough. They send back a store credit for new socks. Highly recommended.

Or simply unaware about the whole "back button" debacle.

This is literally just wrong. This is literally publicly available data:

The government is paying half. And that only for the specialized Moon Lander version. And it requires SpaceX to do a whole lot of things to.

Government pay nothing for the infrastructure SpaceX developed, for the Raptor engine they have developed over the last decade and so on.

This 80% number is complete nonsense.

If you want to make grand statements, at least do a minimal amount of research.

Edit: And in case you are talking about Falcon 9 the claim is even more wrong.
That's sort of shooting the messenger. Tech was overvalued for a long time. A lot of make-work.
I like some concepts from HTMX but I don't understand how it tracks the relationship between these addresses and the identifiers in the markup. It seems to be just that the identifier strings match - the markup identifies the targets/swaps and it just refers to itself.

When I compare this to Phoenix LiveView I much prefer LiveView, because it both provides the markup templating engine and tracks the meaning of the relationship, with server-side tokens and methods.
> The 4rth edition is from 2019. My understanding is that the world of AI has changed about a quadrillion times since those days, right ;) ?

The world isn't moving that fast. Transformers and LLMs are built on neural networks and lots of data and fast computers. You could jump straight to that point, but even the course you've pointed to starts off with more foundational ANN topics before getting to transformers. Much of which is at least in the TOC for the current edition of AIMA. Ought to be complementary texts.

Also, only fools ignore history, "classical" AI and topics also covered in the book are still applicable. ANNs aren't going to solve all the world's problems. Other techniques that fall under the category of "AI" are still applicable and very effective for a large number of real-world problems (and much more efficient than LLMs).
I think that would make it difficult to cultivate relationships and result in more problems.

Doesn’t seem necessary as far as “more free” countries go, but maybe necessary at some times.

I agree with others that it would be interesting to see an LLM that outputs JSON natively - but I think it would also be moving in the opposite direction of the general trend. Right now I can ask it for JSON, YAML, or a number of other formats.

To answer "why not both?" -- bottom line, the effort involved. I don't want to deal with yet another library, the bugs in it, and the inevitable -changes-. GPT's capacity for bridging the gap between structured and human languages is an enormous boon. It bridges a gap so large, we most of the time can't span it with our imaginations. I don't need to write code to tell GPT what to do, I can direct it in plain english.

I'm not worried about the size of the context window the same way we're not worried about memory or disk space - there will be more.
They really aren't that different. Laws are twisted and changed and ignored by powerful people, whether those laws are divine or constitutional.

I wouldn't put it past them that they want to increase the wedge between nuclear and renewables as much as possible. For them it's easy to be pro nuclear, as it's expensive and slow to build thanks to heavy regulatilon. While we argue nuclear vs. solar and wind, they can sit back and keep profiting from fossile fuels.

Edit: just read the article a bit. It's just as I thought. "Only nuclear can save us" bullshit, whereas a genuine writer would have written "Only a combination of green energy sources can save us". FF industry doing their thing..

It makes it impossible to convert money into housing. You have to wait until you find a vacancy in middle class neighborhood.

The issue is not online communities per se, it is creating yet another social media site that tries to house everyone. HN is a focused audience with active moderation, that's why it works.

Social media? Completely different story. Scale is off the charts so it is difficult to moderate. Lots of noise, people trying to be brands and brands trying to be people. Idiotic clamoring for blue checkmarks as if they actually mean something. Collective belief in the metrics of the platform meaning something overall. Little pushback against unpleasant individuals, and few people questioning the pace or mechanics of platforms that actually create toxic environments.

But yeah, other than that, social media is great. :)
>Americans don't have kettles

As a weird American I have a 1970's electric water boiler I still use that is incredibly fast at boiling water. Passed down to me from my grandparents because I enjoy tea and hate coffee. I really hope it never dies because it works way better than the plastic modern one I had in college.

> The regulator can still set legal penalties high enough to stop any innovation, if they want to.

A liability model has a couple of advantages despite this:

1. The regulator has some slack to not set penalties insanely high. As long as they're seen enforcing those penalties against someone periodically, and as long as the penalties sound like a big number to the general public, they can look like Stern Serious Regulators who are doing their jobs properly. The difference between a $5M fine and a $10M fine can have huge financial implications, but to the political circus those numbers are both roughly the same size, i.e. big. This allows the regulators to be more reasonable if they want to be.

2. Using liability rather than specific procedural rules lets the people closer to the ground decide how to most efficiently mitigate risk. Suppose that you run a factory, and sometimes people get injured by careless operation of a rotary saw. A naive regulatory approach might be to require that an additional person be watching whenever the rotary saw is in use. And that would probably help with safety somewhat, though at great cost. But if the regulator instead just requires workman's compensation payments to be made when someone gets hurt, then you can try to figure out a better way using your own knowledge of how your factory operates. (Historically, the adoption of workman's comp laws led to factories hiring engineers to make the equipment harder to accidentally misuse. That rotary saw, for example, would have had a cheap guard retrofitted -- and that would improve safety much more, for a much lower cost, than the "have an observer at all times" rule.)
Yes. It's hilarious seeing proponents of agile who are not able to recognize it when it is applied in a non-software context. "Haha look at the fool! He can't get it right the first time."
I would agree CRTC complaints are like lawsuits, anyone can file one. However, there is some risk that this is a trial balloon for more restrictive policies, and publicizing it like this is consistent with a playbook this government has been using. Fox is mostly harmless, and a good canary for what's going on up here. The whole picture is far too pessimistic for most people to even consider.

One can be simultaneously supportive of the freedoms of LGBT people and against the malefactors who have co-opted this and other legitimate popular movements for some very insideous ends. The primary need of these actors behind the movements is for the majority of people to do nothing. It's called neutralization - where they don't have to actually defeat you if you don't resist. Bizarre behavior, extreme statements, disproportionate aggression over seemingly minor transgressons are all designed to cow people into not confronting their representatives or the activists who operate on their behalf.

The reason they're going after Fox is because their commentators embolden viewers to become disagreeable to official narratives. In Canada, Fox News represents dissent, and dissent represents both hope and belief that can create resistance to the revolutionaries who have seized our institutions while we were being polite and civil. I've been watching the canaries pile up for years, but maybe this one will be the one that alerts the people in the cave.

matter is the basis of all finally generates yields as the ultimate 'output': The as 'completed' scientific discipline called chemistry

the point being how they (chemistry as a cultural institution) owns so much technical know-how without which we cannot live like we do, and this knowledge is not innovating, nor nothing of the sort, it's in maintenance mode. this what I mean by "completed" discipline.

energy is the basis of all:

same as above but physics are the 'ultimate output'; as the completed discipline. I suppose this 'goal of 'completing physics' is not fully realized yet.

Except in some sub-disciplines like civil engineering (built on physics-science).

information is the basis of all:

still working on it. some mix of logic, philosophy, physics, and computer engineering/science must all output another 'completed scientific 'discipline. or completely re-draw physics as a cultural institution.

Show HN: Open Weight Database: outdoor gear inventory to help prepare treks
Hi HN! When preparing my treks & trips, I find it usually boring and annoying to weight everything and report it in a spreadsheet. I ended up always losing the spreadsheet, and it was difficult to share it with friends and other people.

So I ended up creating Open Weight Database, a free/non lucrative/open-source website that aims to list outdoor gear and their weight, in order for people to easily list and prepare their backpacks/pulks/donkeys. For now, the inventory only contains approximately two dozens of items, so not very much (only the gear I currently have).

I hope you'll find this site interesting (or in the best case useful), and if you want feel free to contribute to the project!
how tho? we almost have to have someone living with us to afford rent these days. I would love my own place.
There's a layer of data and interaction that exists at the application level right now. I don't know exactly where the line is drawn between the two, but I think eg. likes might be at the bsky level right now (while posts themselves are at the AT Protocol level)

You're on the money with this assessment. It's all bandwagon hopping without any consideration for reality.

Also, all these things the author complains about are realities of native apps, which still exist in massive numbers especially on mobile! I appreciate that some folks only need to care about the web, but declaring an architectural pattern as superior - in what appears to be a total vacuum - is how we all collectively arrive at shitty architecture choices time and time again.

Unfortunately, you have to understand all the patterns and choose when each one is optimal. It's all trade-offs - HTMX is compelling, but basing your entire architectural mindset around a library/pattern tailored to one very specific type of client is frankly stupid.
