You weren't being charitable to Elon, you just either misread what was in the tweet or mistyped and claimed his dad invested $200k.

Median household income is $70k, so I'd expect you'd need to be upper middle class or quite good with money to loan $28k to your kids. I certainly won't argue that the Musks were poor, but there's a very big difference between "able to help their kids through college and loan $28k" and "silver spoon trust fund kids".
The critique is against saying someone has a "track record" with a sample size of one.

Not that Musk is demonstrably the opposite.
My assumption is there's a PIP or PIP-like event coming up. When that happens do your best to satisfy the requirements but also look for a new job. They're going to want you gone if they PIP you.
More right wing or just more neutral?
I remember building an early "infinite scroll" search interface with it!
Sure there are financial realities, but sometimes the sponsor and the logo fits the vibe of the team really nicely. Inter and Pirelli, Barca and Unicef, Arsenal and O2, Newcastle and... Newcastle.

Credit where credit's due, the NHL has some really great jerseys going on right now.
It is interesting to think about about alternative history here: If microchip technology had never been invented for some reason, what would we have developed instead? What is the next best computing technology?
That's something I never knew existed. I found a list here: https://www.icann.org/sites/default/files/packages/reserved-...
As a previous non-regular-Twitter user, every time I checked in to see what the hype was about, it was full of people trying to create "personal brand"s and sounding very artificial. It had a very LinkedIn-ish vibe. Regular Twitter users probably had a very different experience, of course, but this average initial experience was a turn off.

There are still faux-experts shilling their brand on Twitter for sure, but recently it feels like there are a lot more authentic and casual chat that's easy to get into.

It may just be that Elon shaking things up and causing some people to move out destabilized existing cliques, thus making things more approachable to an outsider. But I for one am enjoying the current Twitter a lot more than the past one.
I think you are probably right that this is some sort of Hollywood style accounting.
This is an important point. Conservatives seem to love ranting about how rampant crime is in blue cities but when you do per capita comparisons of violent crime, especially involving guns, you see that conservative areas are far more crime ridden
An additional personal counterpoint: I know three very productive knowledge workers over the age of 70 who all say they'll stop working when they're dead.

My wife and I can only both work because our elderly parents take on childcare responsibility for us (because paid childcare is very often extremely expensive and very often very overcrowded), and our parents teach and enrich the lives of our children immeasurably.

Take care of the elderly. Build systems and habits of care and compassion that you want to be able to rely upon when you get old.
DeFi enables far higher rates, but much risker.

I haven't seen many overt ads for sex work other than OnlyFans. Tinder is absolutely jam-packed with bots funneling people to OnlyFans accounts. Tinder might have the worst spam filtering of any social network.
Errol claims they sold two emeralds randomly for ~$1000, which was then listed for a 10x markup, certainly a far cry from the "low quality emeralds" Elon stated. So we already see three things here: access to your investment's goods, a nonchalance about emerald access, and Elon attempting to downplay.

According to Federal Reserve, only ~15% of American families directly hold any stock. We're not even talking about direct investments to a private company here and the % is already low. There seems to be an inability to determine direct relationship from Errol to mine owner (to justify a very low investment at an early stage), so using logic, Errol passed some figure needed to gain any access. Likely not as high as people assume, but also not the nothing you've been attempting to brand it as in this thread.

The reason I'm calling out your lack of integrity is because you're attempting to shift discussion away from Elon's inability to be honest as the focus is on his upbringing, and instead trying to make this about his current forms of wealth. The latter of which, is not what people are discussing. Certainly you understand how peculiar this is correct? Defending someone by shifting focus to another topic and calling those you disagree with disingenuous while you do the same is a very good indication this is no longer rational for you, it's purely emotional.

? The early mac memory manager in macOS was idiosyncratic to put it lightly. By the time multifinder was integrated into macos, one might say that it was far worse than anything MS was dealing with. I mean at that point they were performing many of the functions we depend on MMU's for these days in software.

I guess in a way the complexity of the PC has more to do with the wide range of platforms, software stacks, etc that were being supported more than the architecture itself.
any "Raspberry Pi" with 256 MB - is a perfect test machine.

And there is an extra minimal alternative:

Raspberry Pi Pico ( 264 KB; available from $4 + https://github.com/asynts/pico-os )

"Raspberry Pi Pico comes with Dual-Core ARM Cortex M0+ processor, which can run up to 133MHz. It has 264KB of SRAM and 2MB of on-board flash storage, but we can extend up to 16MB of off-chip Flash memory via a dedicated Quad-SPI bus."

Which — in one sense it's great that there's some new domain names. On the other hand these 5 alone would be a total phishing nightmare for some unsuspecting people.

There's nothing wrong with relational databases. There's something deeply wrong with how developers build relational databases. You can build databases in a way that meshes very cleanly with how humans think; people just don't. When a database developer makes an Asset table and a Building table and a Vehicle table, he's explicitly saying that Assets are definitely not Buildings and Vehicles are definitely not Assets and Buildings are definitely not Vehicles. That's the part that's completely foreign to how humans think: in reality, things are kinda like other things. No, Table Inheritance does not solve this problem (does it solve the problem in an OO language? No!). Again: you could build relational databases that mesh with how humans think, you just don't.

Also underlying your comment is this idea:

> Anything foreign to how humans think cannot help achieve intelligence.

Or:

> Human intelligence is the only possible kind of intelligence.

Bullshit. You could just have easily written off fixed-wing aircraft by saying they're completely foreign to how birds fly. It's silly to think that our particular form of intelligence is the only possible form of intelligence.
Competition is a critical driver of innovation and openness under capitalist incentives. Google had virtually no competition for a long time and they predictably stagnated. That’s why it’s so critical to curb monopolies–there’s no way to “speak with your wallet” if the only choices are say Comcast and Spectrum. It’s also way easier to regulate effectively and fairly than reform economic incentives in other ways. I’d prefer a free market economy with a vibrant distribution of small-medium entities over a highly regulated marketplace with only a few behemoths. Ironically, corporate behemoths operate in similar ways to bloated government bureaucracies on the complete opposite end of the political spectrum.

What would be the incentive to pump out garbage? It’s unproductive work that’s sadly rewarded with pay, which pays the rent.

Why are you keeping piles of cash in a mega bank savings account that pays 0.01% anyway? Move it to a regional bank that isn't being assessed the fee.
So far the sweet spot of LLM's seems to be quickly producing mediocre to bad content with factual errors. Assuming you have a talented & knowledgeable person in the loop to improve and fix it, I could see it speeding up the process. But the incentives are already pretty broken here, and I don't know if people will want to do it.

The incentives are a bit easier to see if you just churn out bad content across a bunch of areas you don't understand, which is what we are more likely to get, no?
I was just looking that up as I feel like browsers have gotten more performant over the years, just that websites have slown down. Both browsers claim a Pentium 4 as the min req. Firefox also wants 512mb ram for 32 bit systems, and 2gb for 64bit. Chrome doesn't say how much it needs, but is probably similar.

Should comfortable fit under 200.

Neat! One suggestion is that the tags are wayyyy off to the right hand side, making them less noticeable when scanning through posts. I think if you moved them underneath the title somewhere, it would make them a lot more "accessible" and likely to be used. That way I'll also see the tags as I'm browsing, which can add context subconsciously.
As someone who owns a Hyundai and a Kia, this is an interesting thread to read. Going to look into some safety steps moving forward.

There were a ton of membership organizations that, probably even quite a bit later, required one or more members to vouch for you and generally excluded people who didn't fit the generally WASPy mold. (And often male--male only organizations were quite widespread until relatively recently and AFAIK frats--as well as sororities--can be single-sex but mostly based on the fact that some level of living arrangements are OK to restrict one sex or the other.)

bzip2 is not much slower at compression than gzip; gzip is far faster at decompression though. Either way since bzip2 is a block based compressor, parallelization is trivial, and parallel implementations started appearing about 20 years ago; pbzip2 is almost certainly in whichever package manager is in use for TFA.

I think everything apps are actually sort of a logical conclusion for HCI. The one that my job uses has redundancies everywhere, i.e. a global search bar, multiple links to the same page spread across the website, etc. It's very disorganized, but I've also found it to be strangely useful.

Maybe take this with a grain of salt but when I'm drunk I hate backtracking through UIs and being hampered by organization. I think an everything app would be useful in that case. And in the same vein as "the average human has less than two arms", I feel like the average end user is basically drunk.
I think we would have ended up here anyways: to assume that the silicon transistor would not have been invented without Morris Tanenbaum is to succumb to the Great Man theory[1].

The reality is that Morris was a brilliant man whose life intersected in the right place and time with the arc of history; we should celebrate his life and contributions for that, and not because we think that we'd be stuck in 1950 without them.

I never used Twitter much, but one change I noticed is that there is more "angry political commentary" than before. Twitter has always been politically polarizing, but I feel like angry comments pop up on every thread now. For instance, when Musk announced he had picked a new CEO and referred to to her as "she", one of the replies visible at the top was how this specific Twitter user didn't want to use a product run by a woman.

Drug-resistant ringworm reported in US for first time
I worked for Oracle for almost 10 years. My memories of working there is of just a lot of totally normal everyday people doing the same things as at any other large corporation. Some of the business and technical decisions were disappointing, yet somehow they found a way to just keep on making boatloads of money anyway.
>I don't get the negativity expressed by top comments.

feels like people want musk and twitter to fail just for the sake of it.

i, myself, want the platform to thrive, because i absolutely love the idea of twitter.

Any of the late 90s / early 00s RISC platforms would be good for this. You could easily grab an AlphaStation, Sun Ultra, or pre-G3 PowerBook for such a purpose, and within your price range. Perfectly adequate for most non-browser tasks, and fun to learn if you're coming from the PC world.

Even the G3-G5 PowerMacs aren't really usable for modern web browsing anymore. The vanilla FOSS browsers aren't reliably building on them anymore, and even the "keep it usable" browser projects like TenFourFox are just barely scraping by performance wise on modern sites.

Note that your distro choices will be limited with these, but they all have at least a couple still available.
Ask HN: Good book on rust, the chemical process not the programming language
Does anyone know a good book or resource on rust, the process of oxidation of iron?

Googling it is really hard because of Rust, the programming language, so I thought about asking here.
That would require HN to be modified regularly enough to induce rendering regressions :-)
This is the deliberate reason why this TLD exists.

ICANN sold out the internet.
I don't understand how companies that use fully automated AI to churn out content can survive long term. Why wouldn't I just go straight to the AI to get what I want?

Also, I see an opportunity for publishing brands to set themselves apart from AI generated stuff and charge a premium for that. There might be fewer of them in the future (e.g. I don't mind reading auto-generated celebrity profiles) but I predict the New Yorker and The Atlantic will exist a decade from now.
> In the past, Jaffe said, “We published a celebrity profile a month. Now we can do 10,000 a month.”

Next step will be creating celebrities that do not exist, and I don't mean Hatsune Miku or similar virtual ones.
> Tax payers aren’t responsible for any of this.

The tax payers who voted for the politicians who drafted, voted for, and signed the legislation to relax banking (or any) regulations absolutely are responsible for this. But it's not like we can just send the bill to these people.

Perhaps one day we will get it through peoples' thick skulls that deregulation leads to tax payer bailouts - be that financial institution bail outs, the public paying to cleanup environmental disasters, or whatever. But I'm not hopeful. Most voters listen to the blatant lies and culture war BS being fed to them constantly.

Corporations are largely going to do whatever they can to make a buck. The best you can do to combat this is put laws in place to prevent bad behavior and have a strong enforcement arm to ensure that it's cheaper to follow the laws than it is to break them.
bzip2 is already block based though, so there is no compatibility issue in that specific case (vs pbzip2) though I think pbzip2 supports larger blocks than the original bzip2.

The city is going to spend substantial time and taxpayer dollars to argue a legal theory that is extremely dubious at best. If private citizens want to sue for dumb reasons, that's their prerogative, but a public entity with lots of other problems to deal with is fair game for criticism when they engage in boondoggles.
They were almost right, the original HoTMaiL was stylized like that because the word was picked as having "mail" and "HTML" in it.
The Ford Pinto scandal was found to be a pretty clear cut case of an auto company refusing to do a recall because dealing with the expected number of injuries and deaths would be cheaper.

So the OP's perspective is accurate. It's not all just golf and nepotism.

"The evidence suggests that Ford relied, at least in part, on cost-benefit reasoning, which is an analysis in monetary terms of the expected costs and benefits of doing something."

For a short while I knew I was going to be in bed recovering from a medical procedure and thought it was a good time to use YouTube Premium since I'd be watching so much.

This. The problem is that Baltimore treats crime as being separate from criminals.

Almost all crime is committed by a tiny, tiny group of people - in NYC, 327 people commit 1/3rd of all shoplifting. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/04/15/nyregion/shoplifting-arre...

Vacuum tubes was the thing, I'd imagine there would be more of that.

I would guess "haven't", based on how many arrests do not even result in a case being referred to prosecutors. Certainly there is some portion of those cases who did commit the crime but the state lacks evidence, but my hunch is that this is not enough to tip the scales in the other direction.
What's the specific attack vector you're thinking of for something like wellsfargo.zip?
Well, there's also .com which was confusing for me as a 12 year old thinking it had something to do with a .COM executable, and nobody could explain what it meant.

Yeah, companies seem to think that "personally identifiable information" is basically just your name. That's clearly wrong because GPS data and VIN make it extremely straightforward to figure out who a car owner is.

As far as I'm concerned, this is PII. That statement is a bald-faced lie and a state AG should bring charges over this - it's extraordinarily irresponsible for Toyota to collect this data and then leak it for TEN YEARS.
I'd be fine with spending €100 per year on each of ten vaccines that each need annual boosting, if that reduced by merely 10% my risks from each of the top ten likely causes of death and QALY reduction at whatever my age is in any given year of my life.

This isn't that cheap, not yet at least, but I think "what's the cost?" is a much more important question than "does it need boosters?"
