(TL;DR: it makes sense in macros)
Sadly I'm guessing this is mostly not due to logistics. Logistics is just a victim of the need to cut costs. The 20% is people across the entire company.
That was proposed a few years ago, but i dont have a link.
It has at least in the Bay Area. Rent and Home prices in many places have been flat.
The reality is, that Hindus put up with a lot already. Most of us are pretty tolerant, despite what you may believe. Or how many times have you eaten a hamburger and had someone rebuke you for it in public? This stuff really bothers us and we bite down and take it. How often do you see "Hindus" hatefully ordering McDonalds when having their lunch meal? I don't see it much, and when I do I forcefully tell them to stop.

Tolerance works both ways. I shouldn't have to see cows getting eaten when I walk down the street.

TLDR don't cry me a river your Protestant work ethic already increased water levels
I read it as "this works, but it's not our core competency so we will sell it off" - whether they're pulling one over on the company and it'll die immediately remains to be seen.

Shipping is getting expensive across the board, which might be part of it.
Apply for what?
This is just like using a long random password, except that it's cryptographically verifiable without ever leaving your device.

If passwords are like playing poker with your cards facing out, Passkeys are like playing with your cards facing in. Your secrets remain under your full control at all times. Nothing sensitive is sent over the wire.

Yes, for everything. Those who've implemented it so far have done a great job at making it /easier/ than handling passwords.

If you've ever used ssh with keys instead of passwords, it's the same thing, and it's so much easier while being more secure. A rare convergence.
Self-represented litigants are treated extremely unfairly compared to represented litigants.

I have been involved in three trial court cases where I represented myself ("pro se"). I won about 10% of dozens of motions I wrote and personally signed. Worse, in most of those cases the other side's lawyer was arguing a position obviously contrary to law, won anyway, and forced me to engage in extremely time consuming appeals process to correct the error.

Amazingly, I have ghostwritten about a dozen motions for co-parties represented by counsel and their counsel signed it. The success rate of those motions has been 100%.

At least with the three judges I have had, it seems like my filings were outright ignored and not read. As soon as a lawyer affixed their signature to my writing, the judge read it and took it seriously enough to apply the law correctly.

I know there is a lot of propaganda about self-represented litigants being treated fairly or with kid-gloves, but my personal experience suggests this is false.
I'm old enough to remember when Wired wrote interesting tech articles. I don't think we need another left-wing rag.
Nested functions are not C.

It's a gcc extension but it is not used much. Many Debian/Red Hat packages that used it had it removed more than a decade ago because the implementation did things like stuffing code into the stack and executing it. When we began hardening our machines and disallowing that kind of behaviour, those packages either had to upgraded to not use that feature or be removed.
> strugging with high inflation rates

What about inflation on USD? /s

Congrats on the launch, we need to see more things like this. I'd suggest adding more 'decentralized' USD stables as an option though. Circle could easily shut you down.

Also, why are all 3 steps the same?
Edge compute is serverless, but most serverless is not edge.
They can have memories implanted, and deleted, and changed. So it seemed possible to me to have some form of neural scanning that doesn’t destroy the replicant.

Today there are humans who can train to beat polygraphs. It seems like replicants can train on this much more easily so this test more likely measures if the replicant wants to be found out than is actually off.

I like how the author brings up this is more a flaw in how society is measuring.

There’s a fun game called Inhuman Conditions [0] where players pretend to be an inspector and either a human, passive robot, or angry robot that explorers how to measure this.

In our world there’s brain imaging and it seems likely that in the future there’s going to be some form of non-destructive memory reading.

One caveat. The America the Beautiful pass does not cover campgrounds that have a nightly fee.

In general, I agree about trying to go to parks off peak season (and getting away from the more popular trails). That said, your hiking and other options can be a lot more limited at many parks that get a lot of snow in the winter relative to other seasons even if you have winter gear. (I've been to Bryce in the winter and it was hard to follow a trail in the canyon.)
It's a learning experience. If everyone learns from it, it probably (most likely) won't happen again. Everyone learns how to write better tests. And, like I said, if you absolutely need to merge something right this exact second and it can't wait until someone disables the failing test (or you can't do it yourself for some reason), you can always merge it even with failing tests.
Yes, indeed. Too late to edit.
> It probably won't help for paying large bills like rent and mortgage

For what it's worth, where I live (in Germany), it's usually just plain impossible to pay rent or mortgages in cash. The landlord or mortgage provider will instead use SEPA Direct Debit to pull the money out of your bank account directly. When I see a US-made movie where the landlord knocks on someone's door to collect rent in cash, it's rather bewildering. In Germany, any sentence that includes the phrase "paid rent in cash" probably starts or ends with "this is how I got scammed".
If it's a pathway to something like machines that can go through a landfill and separate plastic from aluminum then I'm all for it. But this is just so dumb, I'm sorry.
My A.I. RSS reader ingests about 1000 articles a day, picks 300 to show me, on a really good day I see them all, on other days I see maybe 100. Some of these articles concern projects, products and such.
I'm not sure your math holds up, though.

Among other things, it sounds like their income was higher than their expenditures, eg that they had some money left at the end of the year; so your "75m of 375m" ratio isn't quite right.

Maybe I missed something.
Did you actually read the article?

The statement about Paine is brief, and the author immediately moves on. In the full context of the article, it functions more to establish context than to bolster an argument. I have no horse in this race, but it's very weird that you've decided to cherry-pick this one statement so strongly.
Do people still seriously allow tailgating through locked doors these days?

Unreal. When I lived in apartments I always made sure no one followed me in unless I recognized them and knew they were my neighbor or a neighbors guest I saw frequently.
Ask HN: Would you pay for a verified-only social network?
We are building an MVP for a new kind of social network (I know, don't yawn just yet).

Here's our view:

GPT4 will transform the internet in many ways. One of which is the trust we have in our social interactions online.

How can you know, that you're not talking to (or arguing with at 2am) with a bot, trying to sell you something or recruit you for a cause? In a few months you simply won't be able to tell the difference.

This, on top of the well known pitfalls of existing social networks (gaming our attention with divisive content to sell ads to us) made us think: what if we had a social network with the following properties?

- All users are ID verified.
- All users pay a monthly (1$ or so) fee.

These two conditions would already result in:

- No need for ads or gaming your attention or selling your data.
- No bot generated content.
- Healthier more humane discussions.

We think, there's a huge qualitative difference between having ALL your users verified vs only some of them.

Thoughts?
For individuals who aren't price sensitive, the juice isn't worth the squeeze because rent hikes outside the state have been higher. I might save a few hundred dollars a month. It doesn't meaningfully change the financial situation, and then one loses access to the weather, beaches, etc.

It is an engineering problem and this is (largely) an engineering forum. Tomorrow solving this might be a part of your job as well, so idk why are you so dismissive.
Vacant homes held as investment/ properties built for the wrong market (for example: high-end, luxury, when demand warrants multi-family, middle income) can unfortunately keep general availability low and prices high.
I have no faith that landlords will be using the state of the art. Especially when the not-state-of-the-art version supports (in a plausibly deniable way) the biases of the landlords. Make no mistake: landlords are absolutely not doing this out of the goodness of their hearts to make their buildings safer.
I don't think that's remotely true. Nearly all of the Americas seem to be that way[1].

A New Idea for How to Assemble Life
Much is made of "independent central bank," though I typically think of that independence in the same light as "newspaper with independent newsroom which is firewalled off of the advertising/commercial side such that editorial decisions are never influenced by the business."

In practice Congress and the Fed are sibling entities in the same system, which cooperate when stressed (there are many historical examples of this, e.g. WW2). The alignment is obviously not perfect, but there is much more coordination than "totally independent" as is often bandied about.

Friendly reminder that you cannot remove money like that from circulation (unless you literally burn it), it just goes into another account or transforms from the digital form to the printed form. Only reducing the overall debt level reduces the amount of money.

It's a free market. Of course, the US will have a lot more companies coming into Canada than the other way around in tech. It has 10x the population and massive amount of capital. So, yes, you are correct Canada is not competitive against the USA in that matter.

Though, i'd argue it has nothing to do with the fact that they should be taxed appropriately in Canada. It replaces revenue from TV distribution that was appropriately taxed. Similar discussion to whether we should tax robots labour i think.

Also, I think countries have the right to promote their own culture. That might be hard to see from the POV of the country who's culture is slowly boulderizing that of the rest of the planet.

Nested functions are a GCC extension, not standard C. As far as I know, there's never been a reason to use the auto keyword in standard C.
I mildly agree.

Design System Guide
Based on the descriptions of the tasks here, they're going to run out of CPU for the actual processing tasks long before they run out of CPU for the actor management. So it doesn't matter whether their actor implementation is capable of spawning 25 million actors doing nothing on commodity hardware when they can probably only keep maybe 2 times or 3 times the number of CPU's worth of actors busy anyhow.

What an absolute genius who disrupted two fields in two years.

I was exposed to Shannon's channel capacity theorem of a binary erasure channel in a grad comms theory course, and totally fell in love with the beauty and elegance of his mathematical formulations. Since that day, teaching Information Theory has been my most favorite hobby--which also used to a career. I love to see students' eyes pop when you eventually show how elegantly simple it is to express disorder (entropy) and to find fundamental limits on source and channel codes using this expression.
"Sounds" since a couple of years. Also PayPal is of the same kind since 20 years but, for some reason, people never learn.
It'll be interesting to see how this plays out on the moon. The Outer Space Treaty along with the Artemis Accords makes moon ownership illegal, but it also makes interference illegal.

So in other words you can't own the land, but if you're doing something with or on the land nobody can interfere with that. And if you're doing science than you can plausibly claim an exclusion zone around your experiment.

We used to think there was lots of unused land on the moon so that conflicts would be easy to avoid, but the areas of interest are the polar regions and those are relatively small.
To some degree isn't this people voting with their feet? A U.S. state does a lot of things in serving people, people are going to look at all of that collectively to decide if those decisions are in general good or bad.

I don't think collective decisions like this are the last word and it's probably hard to use the de-population to make some sort of judgement on any particular policy or aspect of California but I also wouldn't say it's impossible to draw conclusions.
Well, you can certainly withdraw cash and stash it in your bed, pillow or mattress at home.
> they’ll be told that the contract is just a standard form that can’t change.

One of the biggest problems with rental contracts is that the person who is counter-signing the contract on behalf of the property owner often doesn't have the authority within the organization to negotiate, only the owner does, but you have no opportunity as a tenant to speak to them. The manager of most apartment complexes is a low-mid paying role that basically exists to say "no" a whole lot and be a scapegoat for the choices/decisions of the owners. This is even /more true/ with corporate-owned apartments. When you combine this with the systems used to effectively illegally price fix via collusion with other landlords (although somehow this is never prosecuted), it becomes an untenable system for renters who have essentially no legal recourse.

Ironically, the more expensive the apartment rent, the less likely you are to put up with these things because the owners know that their tenants can afford to sue them and are likely educated and know their rights. It's primarily lower rent locations where abuses occur en masse. In order for a contract to be enforceable it must allow for negotiation and must provide consideration for both parties. But there's a huge difference between a contract being legally enforceable and upheld by a court vs a contract you must follow because you have no means to legally challenge it. Contracts of adhesion are very rarely fully enforceable, because they often do not include consideration and may be unconscionable. As an example, you are not allowed to contractually sign away your civil rights in most jurisdictions, but many rental contracts include clauses that effectively have you do so.
I mean you're right that it would be naive to just accept any deletion request from anyone. But is that really violating your rights by having someone request your data be deleted from someone else's dataset?

If someone wrote your name on a wall and I asked them to erase it, I don't think that violates your rights. You didn't ask for OpenAI to train on your data in the first place. Having it deleted now is no different than OpenAI never having existed in the first place.

To be fair, tor is a really crappy network to orchestrate a DDOS attack. On the other hand some sites just can't take much traffic, especially if it is a consistent inflow of requests. It may be that somebody just used tor as a proxy to crawl your website and it crumbled.

I happen to speculate this because I may have used tor for web crawling, which may have caused a specific site to crash before I cut back the crawl rate. Punishing tor for such incident is mostly FUD.
You are just getting unnecessarily pedantic here. I was talking about computing resource usage. Both are the same when it comes to resource consumption being limited.

It is like saying Oracle/Postgres/MySQL/MSQL. If you say they are different in some X functionality, yeah duh they are different in X functionality. However, they are all SQL databases.

Same way, Edge/Serverless is both running on limited compute resources (which is the point of the article and point I was making). Both differing in functionality X (of latency/closeness to your user) has nothing to do with either the article or my answer.
Thought itself can drive tumour growth
> Certainly you need fixed-size types occasionally to match externally-defined structures (hardware, protocols) but if you write u8 loop counters and u32 accumulators you're screwed on a DSP with only u24.

This "portability" argument always rings hollow. How often are you actually reusing code between a DSP and a desktop? When real sizes don't matter, but just a minimum range, there's `(u)int_least8_t` (could be renamed as `u_min8`). On a DSP with only, say, 16-bit "bytes" (like the TMS320), that would internally be a `u16`.

C is not a "portable assembler" anymore. That's a myth. Almost no one writes C in a portable way. Every library or program has their on version of <stdint.h>. glibc, for example, uses gu8 for `unsigned char`. Put that on your 24-bit DSP, and `gu8` just became the same as `gu16` and the nonexistent `gu24`.

C is a language designed around a PDP/11 and inherits that legacy baggage. The C committee that refuses to accept the reality for "purity" reasons holds back the language.

"Collective" may not be the most accurate way to describe Facebook (er, "Meta"), given that its structure places it on the opposite end of the spectrum:

> When I see a US-made movie where the landlord knocks on someone's door to collect rent in cash, it's rather bewildering

That might be the result of thinking movies bear any resemblance to reality. Approximately nobody pays rent in cash in the US, either. But movies are about telling stories, not describing how things really are.

> Should rich people get less jail time because they lose more money because of time spent in jail (per day income is higher) than a poor person.

No. The point is that fines should be based on per-day income or some kind of similar measure of wealth. Which actually makes it consistent with the hypothetical economic punishments of being thrown in jail.
Interesting tech articles were always a very small part of Wired magazine. They've always been about techno-utopian visions of the future. IOW, they've always had philosophical articles.

This only really happens in a friendly context with family or if someone is behind on rent.
