Tough a system put into contact with a resevoir of a constant concentration should try to increase in volume until the concentrations on both sides are equal.

It's probably the 'constant concentration' part that is confounding the two. It is connecting number of particles with volume, whereas the canonical ensemble has them as separate terms.
Because it’s completely untrue. People could actually read the memo rather than repeat Ascroft’s and institutionsl lawyers attempt to blame another admin/party for 9/11:

“We believe that it is prudent to establish a set of instructions that will more clearly separate the counterintelligence investigation from the more limited, but continued, criminal investigations. These procedures, which go beyond what is legally required, will prevent any risk of creating an unwarranted appearance that FISA is being used to avoid procedural safeguards which would apply in a criminal investigation.”

Which should make all of HN’s sing, but easier to repeat the “wall” meme.

The CIA wanted to recruit, the agencies don’t play together, and when they get caught with their pants down it’s blame someone else. It’s really amazing how HN is 99% doubting of FBI/CIA/NSA/DOJ but be completely uncritical of something when convenient.

> And quite the minority in the country considering how high their Jewish president poll right now.

They are not your classic Nazists. Groups like the Right Sector are best described as a "generic form of Ukrainian ultranationalism", which allowed the inclusion of ethnic minorities, including Muslim Crimean Tatars and Chechens, and ethnic Jews, Poles, Hungarians, Greeks, and Romani[0]. I call them Nazis as a simplification, as they adopt the same symbology, most of their values and modus operandi.

Also consider how everyone proudly adopted "Slava Ukraini" even if it's the official slogan of Stepan Bandera's wing of the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists. Imagine milions of Italians saluting with "Duce mia luce", or Germans resurrecting "Sieg Heil".

I didn't get that intent from what the original user of orthogonal posted. Maybe I just didn't understand what they posted.

> >Lose your (google) passkeys account for whatever reason (ai says no, wrongthink, itar ban), and you risk losing your digital life.

> Isn't this entirely orthogonal to the usage of passkeys? You could "lose your digital life" if you forgot your password, or remembered your password but tripped their risk scoring system (eg. fresh login from an unusual location).

So the person they responded to was saying that loss of (centrally coordinated) passkeys means potential loss of all digital life.

They are responding that a loss of (centrally coordinated) digital life can happen for a variety of other reasons unrelated to passkeys.

The first person is narrowly concerned with central coordination of a particular passkey system, and the second person is saying that if "loss of one's digital life" is the primary concern, then they should instead be concerned with broader central coordination and verification. In essence, their criticism is that cause and effect are being reversed, or at least mistaken.

I dropped out of school in the middle of taking linear algebra, so you know more about math than I do. Maybe orthogonal was appropriate here, but I'm still going to push back against its colloquial use in most situations.
I suspect much of the "EV hassle" arguments would disappear very quickly if people were just given one for a few weeks.

The standard for admitting evidence is far below reasonable doubt, even in a criminal case. Generally speaking, all you need is someone to get on the stand and say (under oath), "yes, that video is an accurate copy of the video I took".

If you have that (absent other possible evidentuary concerns), it is up to the trier of fact (e.g. jury) to determine if how much they believe the evidence.

The problem here is the prosecution cannot meet even that low bar, and instead is relying on the various exceptions to the requirement.

Rule 902 lists evidence that is "self authenticating", and videos are not on it.

It's quite wide spread. There were reports about Israel doing it, Russia doing it and now Vietnam. I'm sure it's done by many many more.

In Turkey Erdoğan's presidential communications office has budget of 100 million dollars and 30 story building. He has also 11 million registered members and the word on the street is that they are granting jobs based on social media trolling performance and pay for tweets. When Musk announced the Twitter Blue subscription, Erdogan said he will ask him for discount and regional pricing.

You think you can catch trolls by IP or geolocation? Nope, those people work from home or wherever they are. You think you can catch them by requiring government ID or payment? Nope, they have the budget and they are real people.

The content created by these people is nor organic but it's not a bot generated crap too. They do utilise bots to manipulate trending topics but the wast majority is real people following orders.

Maybe large scale monitoring over trends can be helpful to identify inorganic campaigns nut the lines are very blurry. After all, arguably, marching behind a leader with agenda is an organic behaviour.

Humans are simply not equipped with defense mechanisms for the era of mass communications. Tiny issues can be easily amplified to push an agenda. If you look at the social media you would think that half of the youngsters are trans, the other are fascists or something.

It gets unhealthier and unhealthier as the in person relationships are breaking down, people start living in imaginary worlds where the life is about culture wars.

Techies like to imagine that they are going to "defeat the government with tech" but they are wrong, the governments can have the tech because they have the money and the power to design the landscape. For example, here is the Turkish interior minister boosting to a Youtuber about this special app which has total overview of the social media and takes a photo of him to run face recognition in seconds: https://twitter.com/Darkwebhaber/status/1655561171900964865?

The example you described is handled by our current system. (For the moment, let's put aside whether or not the system always works as intended). Evidence isn't just "brought to court by someone else". It doesn't just appear. Someone needs to be saying "this is the accused saying this"- during the discovery process before the trial the defense will have an opportunity to refute that claim. If it's another witness, they will be cross-examined by the defense and the jury will need to decide if the testimony is credible or not. If they lie, they will have committed perjury, and all of what I just said is true (roughly, I'm not a lawyer) whether you use AI or a good voice actor.

No, the Russian Federation did, by launching an unprovoked war of aggression against Ukraine.
Check the list of apps using it.

This one got my attention: https://github.com/sindresorhus/emoj

I do use emojipedia.org quite often, so I must admit I find this would be quite useful :D. But the thought of having a framework like React powering this behind the scenes, right on my freaking terminal, makes me think that there's no hope for future generations to keep software development simple, "lean" for the foreseeable future. Imagine using 100MB to search for emojis.
China only installs clandestine police stations, infiltrates companies, telecommunications and creates social media apps that push dangerous challenges that leave people with disabilities.
A book is not like a statue with one large patron; or a piece of software they were commissioned, in the past, to write and have no promise of gain in the future.

A book is written for hundreds or thousands or hundreds of thousands of tiny, future patrons.

Further "starving artist" isn't just a trope.

An author probably wasn't being paid for a given book for the months or years until the book was produced. It was made on a promise that some day it would be paid back. That's what makes it different.
Cool cynical take, bro. It's almost like rashly hiring a lot of "unneeded workers" and then firing them is an indication they won't be able to return money to shareholders.

German companies of a certain size have to have worker representation on their boards. Since Germany is perhaps one of the world's leading economies and hasn't been destroyed by not only returning money to shareholders, there is, at least, a viable alternative.

But please continue to embody why we can't have nice things.

You were right. Especially the quip "distinction without a difference" was relevant here.

With the context it is certainly not ambiguous.
Someone did a similar thing around Christmas 2020 in German, they trained an AI on recipes from a huge, old and still popular social recipe site (chefkoch.de) and pre-generated 100k recipes.

They hooked it up to a service that sent the nonsensical recipe on a postcard for a small fee. I assume they made a good few bucks (not millions of course) with this :)

Site is still online:
https://recipes.generated.online/

Part of the humor at the time was that the questionable/bad quality of the model output at the time fit very well with the image of the site, which is kind of a meme here.
Internet commenters don't fare much better. Any dividend at all is the outrage hook. If you don't get that it's you that is missing something, even if you don't agree.
Job levels are tied to the amount of business value one provides. At some point in one's journey, for most developers, they will hit diminishing returns in terms of what they can provide from just their hands on keyboard contributions.Thus at some point people will tend to either peter out level-wise or need to find ways to augment what they bring to the table in terms of coding.

As an example, senior devs can be spending time mentoring, teaching, and guiding the junior devs in their team/org. Bringing up those around them will often, again not always, provide more business value than what they could have done on their own in that time.

You ignored the second part of his statement, where he claimed that since slavery ended, capitalism has been propped up by the exploitation of the poor. Those countries may not have slaves but they do have poor people.
Oh and to prevent what happened last time (the post getting flagged as an overheated discussion), I'm going to close the laptop and come back to this in a few hours! So if you ask a question, I'm not ignoring you – I'll respond later.
I understand your objection. I also value reliability. I would say I'm a bit more conservative about joining startups for this reason (and the fact that I have to be prepared to be out of a job in a year or two if things don't work out). I would prefer not to spend my time frustrated and compromising on my values unless I'm willing to take the risk for the payout.

But that's the reality of startups: spending too much time on reliability when it's not needed is wasted effort. As a startup you can at least pull the "choose boring tech" lever and rely on the frameworks/library's/services to care about reliability for you.
Look, I hate Twitter. I've tried using it 4 different times over the past decade and it never stuck with me.

For everyone else though, it's like digital crack. It was the place to be for a while, even though it's users would chafe over minor changes. And of course, there was the original Cambrian explosion of microblogging movies and blind dates and garage sales and haircuts et. al... mostly replaced today by politics and related vitriol.

It's 100% the fact that there is no meaningful competitor, exacerbated by people being lazy and distrustful of other private platforms. And good - these people should be wary, and Cory Doctorow should be on his soapbox telling people how to live in a post-social-media world rather than riling them up to go yell at clouds online.
It might ultimately be good for our economy, and be bad for certain workers.

Economists are always harping on about how disruptions are temporary, how 'good jobs' will replace 'bad' ones. What they don't say is those disruptions can be permanent and dire for those disrupted. There are many rust belt towns that are a hollow husk of the places they once were due to the loss of good paying factory jobs. A lot of those people never found 'good' jobs ever again. Same thing happened in the south with NAFTA. Apparently our economists are all to happy to leave people to rot if it means we can increase gdp a few more percent.

I'm not saying that we should resist automation or ai, I'm saying given our history it's pretty plain to see that we suck at protecting and helping those harmed by it.
> How do you propose to prove if he actually remembers or not?

He doesn't have to remember it for it to be good evidence. If he wants to say "I don't think I would've said that", go for it.

> But then the prosecution doesn't need the video because they would have all of these witness, so why should it be admissible if it can't be authenticated?

The video is perfectly good evidence (and its age and provenance make it pretty reputable). If the defense contests its veracity, that's when you start going to witnesses.
But really doesn't this just mean capitalism is the issue? I am not sure what's the panacea for this other than regulations and laws. I am drawing a blank on precedent for any previous technological revolution. I am sure there are examples. Most countermeasures are implemented after something happens.
> Did they make a mistake when they were hiring or did they make a mistake now when they are firing?
You cant believe both simultaneously.

No it's entirely plausible that hiring then was the right decision and firing now is the right decision. There's no universal law that says you must hire people for eternity.

1974 was a long time ago. 32 bits was a big number. The 8080 had 8 bit words and ran at 2Mhz.

For people today, it's hard to understand how expensive everything was back then. 1K of RAM in 1974 cost about $307 dollars. Yeah, you're not going to be putting that into your router. So those extra bits have a super-high hard dollar cost.

We're lucky he didn't go to 16 bits.
But then the metadata, e.g. gps coords, time of the recording, etc. of the recorded video will not match with what is displayed. So it would be an obvious fake.

> Paying off shareholders in one Quarter before you plan a mass layoff in the next quarter, and hinting these are unrelated, seems to me to be a more disingenuous move than to call out this fact.

They are unrelated. Intel pays dividends every quarter, layoffs or otherwise. The correlation coefficient between the two events is close to 0.

The fact that they massively reduced dividend payments during layoffs is likely correlated, though.
I bought an Amazfit Neo awhile back for a cheap heart monitor. This is a smartwatch clone of the gshock with a much better value ($30?) and battery life (a month).

I then got the real G-Shock gm-5610u for a daily watch and love it. I think Casio does great with non-smartwatch but I don't know who the submission's watch is for other than a collector. It can run for a day and a half on a charge at that price point? Go buy a Garmin.
