Who ever said this was about clean energy or carbon whatevers?

This to me, is about not wasting US resources on this. Let other countries waste their electricity on cryptocoin mining if they want to. There's only so much electricity in this country, and there's already plenty of regulations on waste (or attempts to mitigate waste).
I’m curious about the downvotes because I thought I was just agreeing with OP. Obviously lines of code in a programming language repo is no correlate at all to quality. It’s like the old adage about measuring aircraft quality by weight.

do you maybe want to consider taking a step back and re-evaluating your opinions?
I can't imagine why, with claims this juicy, you wouldn't share your sources. I'd recommend showing the data, or be prepared to defend these ideas without it.

> The long-term side effects piece is still undecided and that's undebatable, simply because not enough time has gone by. Maybe I'll be open to changing my mind in 5-10 years. Even then, I'd win, no?

Like I said long-term side effects doesn't mean latent effects. It doesn't mean things that show up years after administration. It means things that happen right after administration but last a long time. If getting the COVID vaccine caused your arm to fall off 30 seconds after administration, that's a long-term side-effect because last I checked arms don't re-grow.

Yes, we do know what the long-term side effects are. You've confused 'long-term' and 'latent'.

Yes, it's decided. No, it's not debatable.

> ... simply because not enough time has gone by.

Again that (a) doesn't matter and (b) unless you're a vaccineologist then your opinion about whether sufficient time has passed is totally meaningless.
> They really can't raise interest rates much above 5%, this follows straightforwardly

Keep in mind this headline 5% rate is an overnight interest rate, not what the Treasury actually pays on the national debt. All treasuries between 2-30 years are trading below 4% today, and obviously long term debt issued when rates were lower remains at those low rates today.
Personally, I hope IBM goes extinct.

> A satisfying explanation of consciousness must offer some phenomena that carries a resemblance to our personal datum as experiencers of sensations.

What, in your opinion, would make for a satisfying explanation of consciousness? I think another nontrivial piece of the puzzle is that it's hard to even know what we are looking for. There are many philosophers who argue (convincingly IMHO) that it doesn't make sense to posit a hard problem of consciousness in the first place.
I don't understand pornhubs statement. What is device based authentication and why is it the best?
The Mx Max should be compared to a discrete CPU+GPU combination that does have comparable total memory bandwidth. It isn't automatically better to put everything on one chip.
Given how well the porn industry does regardless of the rest of the economy, it would be interesting to see how they would do if a sizeable portion of "users" actually paid for their services.

Enterprising individuals might consider next how the same industry could counterintuitively profit from such legislation, by starting their own VPN service (which would, for example, not suffer from similar dropouts, connection resets, bandwidth related issues, etc. as competing services). I guess it would finally put to rest the question we've all been asking ourselves all along: are people using VPN services primarily to hide their piracy-related activities, or has it been mostly to hide their sexual fetishes?
I'm sure reasonable people could debate the timeframe ad-nauseum, but I think most people can agree, Congress in general has never been all that fiscally responsible.

They were definitely already pushing cashless pre-COVID, but COVID green-lighted a lot more of it in the name of flattening the curve by being "contactless".

The same rationale was being used to push the QR codes and deprecating paper menus.

COVID-19 is a master class of "never let a good crisis go to waste".

BTW it wasn't strictly about keeping homeless out, it's also to prevent theft of the register by staff. This is definitely not a one-dimensional issue. But I do think the discrimination against the homeless facet is all the cities need to outright ban the practice for their licensed public-serving businesses.
I know, I was referring to iPhone 3G, which is what I thought the person who responded to me was referring to with:

> in my opinion the platform didn't realize its potential until they opened it up to third party apps and the App Store.

I do not recall iPhone in 2007 being that huge of a hit. It was obviously very promising, and making waves, but iPhone 3G summer of 2008 was a no brainer even to non techies. I remember there being lines at Apple stores for months.
Yubikeyrings? I like it.
The latencies are different, and kitty is slower at this because the author doesn't care about huge output[0]:

> Some people have asked why kitty does not perform better than terminal XXX in the test of sinking large amounts of data, such as catting a large text file. The answer is because this is not a goal for kitty. kitty deliberately throttles input parsing and output rendering to minimize resource usage while still being able to sink output faster than any real world program can produce it. Reducing CPU usage, and hence battery drain while achieving instant response times and smooth scrolling to a human eye is a far more important goal.

The skull itself? That seems implausible. Something on the skin other than the eyes seems more likely.
Wow! Two thoughts:

1. When compared to a similar SNL parody from 5-10 years ago, it’s much more concept based. I guess you can’t really expect “performance moments” yet.

2. The voiceover sounds like “Antoni” from Eleven Labs. I use that voice in a lot of meta ads. For whatever reason, it sounds a lot better than any other AI narration option.

Your bot would not intentionally by design, but if it were tricked into parsing a malicious URL then the remote site could potentially trick your bot into executing code or commands but this is hypothetical and less likely than some application you installed pulling apache in as a dependency.

It's the dichotomy between the name, neverSSL, and the fact that it's now doing SSL, that makes it interesting, because the name and proclamation is no longer accurate. Also it was hotly discussed yesterday so there's points for this story reflected from that.

I'm not sure about any, but a lot of the persistent data structures seem to fit within that limit, and it's what's used in FP languages like Clojure.
There's also some compiler research of identifying when something won't be used anymore and simply doing the mutation in-place, which can reduce even further the costs incurred by immutability

They don't though. A lot of VPN services operate for free. A lot of my classmates in high school used free VPNs to bypass the school internet filters.

Cannon Lake is a weird red herring to bring in to the discussion, because it was only a real product in the narrowest sense possible. It may have technically been the first CPU Intel shipped with LPDDR4 support (or was it one of their Atom-based chips?), but the exact generation of LPDDR isn't really relevant because both Apple and Intel have supported multiple generations of LPDDR over the years and both have moved past 4 and 4x to 5 now.

What is somewhat relevant as the source of confusion here is that Apple puts the DRAM on the same package as the processor rather than on the motherboard nearby like is almost always done for x86 systems that use LPDDR. (But there's at least one upcoming Intel system that's been announced as putting the processor and LPDDR on a shared module that is itself then soldered to the motherboard.) That packaging detail probably doesn't matter much for the entry-level Apple chips that use the same memory bus width as x86 processors, but may be more important for the high-end parts with GPU-like wide memory busses.
I don't begrudge a place not dealing in cash, but the no paper menu thing is really annoying, and I find surprising unanimity among my friends about this. I am currently in NYC but visit LA regularly.
I agree -- maybe someday LLMs will give me a the code for a set of simple abstractions that are well-matched for the problems I currently face. Something like a Pattern Language that was all the rage, but, um, better? More objective and pragmatically useful. Not galaxy-brain theory.

That's what I really want. But that would also put me out of a job.
Thanks for the clarification. Does it penalize a submission when someone flags it (but it doesn't reach whatever threshold there is to actually mark it as flagged)? I'm assuming there's a threshold.
So this was all a plot of the VPN industry?

Educating people how to use VPN is a very double-edged sword, because people will also learn that they no longer need to pay Netflix et al.
I'd say this is a fundamental misreading of Musk. He's a good hype man, who started rich, got richer and became famous. Him starting over would be simply that he's famous and so is better at being famous and generating hype than someone who isn't already famous.

The thing is - basically being a grifter is a great skill for making money for oneself and friends, but not actually a skill that helps society as a whole. And sure, advertising is a kind of expertise, but I don't think many people actually hold it in high regard as being worth a lot in terms of "deserving".
> It's also already possible to just hire some random person off the street, have them draft up a screenplay based on what an executive says, have them give up their copyright, and send it off to a writer for "Adaption".

I don't think this is true. Any studio that has signed on to the WGA collective bargaining agreement can only hire WGA members to write. I am sure studios would love to do that otherwise and pay the writer less. Here the WGA has identified a new potential way of this occurring and is protecting against it.

Yeah, bots - sure. GPT? No way. My rapid-classification pattern matcher, honed on two decades of running blogs and web bulletin boards, recognizes the shape, cadence and sound of these comments as indicative of the usual kind of spam comment, common in the last 15+ years.

I.e. they came out of some boring, old-school script.

(Though I do wonder, how much of the spam comments on random, long-forgotten wordpress blogs, ended up in the GPT-{3,4} training data.)

NYPost is in a liminal spot; for example, if it's saying something happened in NYC, that thing likely happened in NYC, in my experience. Its commentary on said event can likely be ignored if it's the kind of event that gets right-wing voters riled up, but it doesn't just make shit up. It's not Breitbart or something lol, and if the issue isn't a political hot topic, I don't know if one needs to avoid it

perl had some history in bioinformatics but ruby and php never made any inroads into science or HPC to the level Python has. Python has almost entirely replaced perl in this context.

I chose Python over perl about 25 years ago and never would have considered ruby or php (both seemed squarely aimed at web developers not scientists). I believe Numeric Python was released around that time, and it was a revelation- especially to matlab users, who recognized the syntax and behavior.
I don't understand how this is different from philosophical zombie concept. You have a black box that appears to be intelligent like a smart person. But for some reasons you want to say it isn't intelligent or sentient or whatever. Fine, I feel like that says more about you than about the box or about the nature of intelligence.
There's loads of laws defining what permissible sexual behaviour is though?

This is only unusual in the sense that generally Western countries are in favour of porn. I think you could make a good argument against the universal availably of porn given its negative effects on the individuals that engage in it and on society as a whole – similar to arguments against drug use or prostitution.

I'm not saying I'm in favour of banning porn or anything, just that where we draw the line on what's permissible behaviour between consenting adults seems largely arbitrary and mostly down to cultural factors rather than a fundamental analysis of harm.

Copying [dead] reply here so I can reply to it: “This simply can’t be true. The dock first appeared in NextStep 1.0, which was released in 1989, six years before dragthing 1.0 appeared in 1995.”

The NeXT Dock was removed from Rhapsody and Mac OS X DP1/DP2. The Mac OS X DP3 Dock was a new creation.

See http://www.rhapsodyos.org/misc/docs_and_faqs/Misc_FAQs.html which recommends a third-party dock called Fiend —

Q: Is the OPENSTEP Dock going to be available in Rhapsody?

A: It is actually still there in 5.0 to a degree. In 5.1 and later it has been replace with the Applications Menu (but you can get it back using Fiend[0]). Also you have the option to use the minimize to tile for windows like in NEXTSTEP/OPENSTEP instead of window shade.

Ask HN: What are some good terminals for Linux now?
Hey HN Community!

I've observed lately that the development of contemporary terminals seems to be leaning more towards OSX, leaving Linux desktops in the dust.

In the past, iTerm2 was a leading terminal, but now the spotlight is on Warp. Hyper had its moment too, but it lacked robust Linux support.

Are there any stylish Linux terminals out there with a rich extension ecosystem? Suggestions are much appreciated!
Yes, reading the texts from a school of economics that was capable of predicting the price inflation we see now from the money supply inflation of the previous decade seems like a horrible idea.

Better to read about economics from the Keynesians and Chicago Monetarists who completely fucking failed to see the inflation coming, were "surprised" by it, and are now OVER-tightening their way to a depression. The same schools that only saw a "little froth" in the 2007 housing market, the same schools that STILL have no model to figure out why RRP participation is stubbornly stuck north of $2T, the same schools whose own dot plots are consistently WILDLY inaccurate even 6 months out.

Good advice.
And the bigger issue even is when these expert designers retire - where do we get more experts? Do we become the elohoi of "The Time Machine" where we don't know how to do anything? Is AI really going to completely replace these designers in their work lifespan?
