It’s not “condoning” anything. It’s accepting reality.

If you sign up for a cost per print plan, you get some benefits in consideration for your payment. If you drop it, those benefits end. It’s no different than renting a car and expecting to keep driving after it ends.

I use HP Instant Ink because my kids want to print color. Otherwise, I have a brother that I purchased like 15 years ago! The cost is cheaper at the volume we print, and you don’t get in a position where your marginal cost goes up by $75 or whatever the cartridge sells for. I think we pay about $60/year.

My sister-in-law is a photographer and prints alot. She has the fancy Epson tank printer, which makes sense for her as she prints easily 2,000 prints a year.
Nah the UN does what it should, prevents world wars and nuclear holocaust by keeping superpowers talking in an open forum. That's kind of the only point of it, not to be some kind of world government.

Tenure has its pluses and minuses. If a string theorist has tenure, they’re going to be string theorizing for a very long time. Sunk cost fallacy plays a role but so does specialization. If you’re leading string theorist and you walk away from string theory, what are you? A mathematician?

I have an 11" Chromebook (Intel CPU) with the Linux extension enabled (you get a Debian VM), I can run any Linux program on it, even programs that require graphics. It is perfect for travel (battery is good for about 8 - 10 hours, depending on usage). If you decide to go on this route, make sure that you buy a supported machine (as in it will receive updates for at least a few years from now).
`rotary_embedding_torch` has not defined any build requirements hence your error: https://github.com/lucidrains/rotary-embedding-torch. You therefore need to install `numpy` before installing `rotary_embedding_torch`.

This is bad, `rotary_embedding_torch` as a package is not in a high enough quality to put as a requirement.

The good news is Pip 23.1+ is forcing the issue, `rotary_embedding_torch` will fail even if you have `numpy` installed because builds by default take place in an isolated environment and you *must* define any build requirements you have. This should force the quality of packages in the Python ecosystem to improve and no longer have this error.

Unlikely. I see another comment says "The duration of the antidepressant effect is relatively short (days to weeks) and the antidepressant effect appears to diminish with repeated dosing."

They didn't. Google regrouped and renamed the permissions until every normal thing that every application needed became grouped with rare and powerful capabilities.

Except for the ad-based crapware, almost all applications minimize their permissions.
This was insightful. You sound like you know a ton about QA. Would you be open to join a rolling interview? I am curating a list of QA experts and asking them weekly a single question, and then compiling everyone's answers into a blog post.
FYI Tortoise, the thing you are trying to build, is abandonware. The creator decided to stop working on it due to “ethics” (i.e only Big Tech should have access to AI) when the community reverse engineered a way to finetune it using weights accidentally left on hugging face. There’s a nice fork out there called mrq/ai-voice-cloning.
I think there's a few factors going into making this more likely (though still unlikely on the whole)

Much of the difficulty of being trans is social, which makes it more likely for people to come out / actively transition in environments with less social consequences. Programming, as an activity which can be anonymous and online fits that bill simply because there's less socializing at all.

And speaking of social difficulties, most people don't want to be social trailblazers. They don't want to be the first trans person in a group and deal with the potential existing prejudices, or more likely ignorance. So if you see a group that already contains trans people, you're probably seeing a group you can slide into without much difficulty.

In which case, the headline would be correct. If ketamine can only treat depression by inducing a trip, then it's the trip that treats the depression, not the ketamine, which suggests future avenues of research into trips themselves, possibly excluding ketamine altogether.
Whether or not ChatGPT can replace you is less immediately important than whether decision makers /believe/ it can replace you.

Organizations adopt non-productive practices for many different reasons and the consequences are often not felt for a long time.

Imagine a scenario where an executive decides that ChatGPT/CoPilot/Whatever makes a junior dev as productive as a senior. Even if they are wrong it could take years for the tech debt to build up enough for the organization to recognized it as a mistake.

Even if you're right you're still unemployed.
It's called "HP Instant Ink" because you don't have to keep track of ink cartridge levels, HP takes care of that for you and bills per page instead.

I honestly thought all the marketing materials I've seen were quite clear about how the service was billed. I don't think changing the name would lead to more or less confusion or sales.

> There's no reason whatsoever why random people...

Having "random people" participate is a cornerstone of democracy. As others have pointed out, it's what separates democracy from elitist technocracy - and, ultimately, oligarchy.

The problem is that another cornerstone is the public's responsibility to educate themselves. Nobody seems to do that any more, including here. This is the foundation that's failing. Fix the broken cornerstone, not the one that's still intact (though under assault in the form of gerrymandering and disenfranchisement).
I don’t have anything to add other than I enjoy reading your idle musings. I’m not a physicist and don’t really know any real physics passed 101 college courses. I have similar idle musing with the speed of light so it’s nice to read another layman’s thoughts.
Yep, absolutely no career-terminating downside opportunity in this one.

the regulation is a joke anyway, so why pretend? same with gdpr and the so called online privacy. it’s all smoke and mirrors with an added serving of mixed anti-americanism and european protectionism. they should remove everything from the books until these things have heft. and if they can’t come up with something serious, why legislate in the first place? just for populism’s sake? (eg UK’s online safety bill)
I am quite happy with my 12th gen 13" Framework running NixOS. Everything I need seems to work out of the box (sleep/resume (not using hibernate though), Touchpad, camera, mic, etc) and seems quite stable.

The 13th Gen (w/i7 only?) has a bigger batter so battery life should be better (a chief concern for some - though I am almost always plugged in). The new version also has an option for a matte screen. There's also an option (coming) for an AMD based system (eg better iGPU).

Almost everything is repairable/replaceable... and in a year or three, when I want to upgrade to a newer/faster system, I know I'll be able too (the upcoming AMD MB is tempting but my machine is less than a year old and I can't justify the cost)
Returning back to the OT of surveillance and oversight, and as you're making this into a partisan issue, what would Labour do differently?

"Authoritarian" concerns were expressed last time Labour was in government [1], and they're "seriously considering" resurrecting their policy of mandatory id cards if they get in power again [2].

And, before I get smeared as a "Tory"/"Brexiteer", I am not - I'm someone who remembers what happened last time Labour was in power and see neither party offers an alternative to increasing surveillance in the UK.

Show HN: I made Hazumi, a modern HN reader for iOS
Hello HN,

I'm thrilled to announce the launch of my first app, Hazumi, a Hacker News reader, available for free on iOS!

I’ve been lurking on HN for around 2 years while working on this project seeing people post amazing HN reader apps of their own. I’ve always figured Hazumi wasn’t good enough yet to post here but if I wait around until I’m ready, I’ll probably never share so here goes…

Hazumi is a modern Hacker News app for your pocket with some intentional limitations.

Stories are displayed on a simple colourful card, with images, that condenses all the information you need at a glance. Out of the box you get accessibility features for system settings like light/dark mode and text size. Others are controlled in app for opening stories in a Web View vs externally via Safari, defaulting to Reader Mode and reducing animation bounciness.

You can browse top, new and best sections, limited to 30 stories each, which refresh every hour on the server. I’m not a fan of infinite scrolling or spending a lot of time reading news. I just want to get in and get out while keeping up on the latest.

Other notable features:
- Basic search
- Widgets for your Home and Lock Screen
- Apple Watch app
- Warns you of non-HTTPS links

There are a few “PRO” features that require a subscription ($/€1.99 monthly):
- AI summaries of comments on stories that have at least 30 root level comments
- In app newsletter (yesterday’s top 10 stories)
- Bookmarking with iCloud support
- Themes (change the colour of the cards)
- Supporting indie developers and keeping the lights on for Hazumi

Working on:
- Better comments/tappable links
- Enhancing search
- More themes

Being the first version, it's very early days for Hazumi and there are bugs that I’m working on fixing. I'm eager to improve it and shape its future based on your input. I welcome any feedback you may have, whether it's about existing features or ideas for new ones. Your thoughts will be instrumental in shaping Hazumi, making it an even more useful tool for tech news enthusiasts.

Please give it a try and let me know your thoughts.

P.S. Shout out to MB and MC for your awesome feedback during the TestFlight beta!

I feel like there are still compromises. Especially for a cafe. Did you walk to the camp site, or drive 95% of the way there? This cafe will probably have electricity and clean tap water and machines to heat up the water and make coffee. Sure someone else might attempt an even more Amish cafe (even some Amish use electricity, AFAIK), or one run by a hippie might avoid having a microwave because they think microwave-heated-food are as harmful as nuclear radiation.

Honestly if he wants to make it cash only with the excuse that digital payments are so painless you don't even notice your spending, I could sign on to that. But if it's because "pay terminals have screens", then that's a level of zealotry that I'd be wary of. Imagine if he can only get microwaves with LCD screens for his cafe, so they have to work around that as well...

Consciousness does not emerge; that's a trick your brain plays on you.

Really your conscious experience is quite empty/vacuous.

Let's take vision, for example. (this is based on reading a handful of papers without a background in neurophysiology, so mountain of salt etc)

Your vision isn't some continuous, perfect experience. Meaning, if you look at an old smartphone, you can really see the pixels, and you can see the jagged breakdown of the UI if you kinda squint and look close. This reveals the magic trick that it's really just a grid of pixels.

Same with your conscious experience!

Your vision, if you pay attention to the sensory content rather than what it represents, is grainy. It has constituent "pixels".

What are those? This is where I am guessing, because sure we have retinas, which would be an obvious choice, but there are also retinotopic maps in the back of your head in the visual cortex (https://elifesciences.org/articles/40224).

These create essentially a visual homunculus of your first person POV. It is entirely made up of cells, that get more dense as they get closer to mapping the fovea.

Back to my early point about vision being grainy. The point there is that vision has artifacts of it's medium. It isn't some perfect magical substance that gives a continuous, smooth qualitative experience, rather it is grainy, and likely a physical configuration of neurons.

What neurons?

Well, for vision, I think a conscious person's first person POV is identical to the retinotopic map.

When you look around, those neurons are changing.

If someone asked, in physical space, where my first person POV, made up "qualia", really is? I think you would have to point to this retinotopic map in the back of my head. There is nothing additional needed. Neurons can seem to be a 3-D a video game experience if configured in this convoluted way in a biological organism's nervous system.

TLDR: Those grainy movements of your vision? Those are neurons dancing. Your first person, visual perspective is entirely physical.

EDIT:

If they further inquired: well, okay, those neurons are identical to the first person POV that this biological organism has. But why is it appearing to them? Why aren't they a P-Zombie?

Well this neural homunculus (retinotopic map) is in the visual cortex which is connected to the parietal cortex (involved in spatial awareness and attention) and the temporal cortex (involved in object recognition and memory).

So whatever is happening, is a coordination of this visual homunculus with all the other processes corresponding to our other features/senses, with the goal of having a cohesive experience for an agent, you.

So these neurons are made up of a larger global process, and thus you can sit and look at this screen, but also hear yourself reading this sentence in your head as you vocal chords have minute movement, and then stop and think of something. This kind of ties back to my first comment, but the point I'm making here is if you phenomenologically investigate one of the most salient soups of qualia, vision, it becomes pretty clearly it is entirely physical. So the onus falls back onto you, what extra stuff is there?
The end result is that it isn't economical or practical to do it. Which is a resoundingly good thing.
I mean, just looking at the product page it's all about receiving ink in a timely manner. It's not until you get to the poorly-named Ink Plans that you see that it's actually all about pages.

Maybe the problem is for people not realizing that they are dealing with 2 buttocks of the same butt. And it does not look like said butt is by the people / for the people. Instead of fighting between each other people could be better off doing something productive about it.

Oh sure. I'm fine with passthrough but the Quest 2 barely scratches the surface and an Oculus Pro shows the potential but it's still very much under the bare minimum. I think it's a feasible path as long as the camera quality is pretty high.

> It's companies being directly hampered by their connection to the US.

No, the companies are being hampered by not following local (EU) regulation, so they get fined because of it. Has nothing to do with where the company is from, it might as well have been Indian, Chinese or from South Africa, it has to follow the regulation in the places it does business.
I mean how many Horse Carriage Drivers are still around? Or blacksmiths?

Mike Rowe has a very good point, some fields will be losers and some fields will be winners. Some of those losing fields will be white collar workers so if you're in that losing field you should be prepared to career switch or become unemployed.

Obviously the headline is much more ominous that what he said.
Would it be possible to make past days replayable, like https://twofergoofer.com/ does?

Also, do you have stats of the guesses? Would be interesting to see how many people managed to guess correctly within 1/2/3 attempts, and what were the most common emoji combinations for both correct and incorrect guesses.
> brazil is the country with highest number of trans people killings in the world[2] and homophobia is the rule rather than the exception.

Not surprising when Brazil is a very dangerous country with a very high number of killings, period. It just naturally follows that the number of gay/trans people killings is also very high.

I mean, we can probably concoct some statistics to prove that Brazil is also one of the countries that kill more cis/hetero people too.

None of this to say that the right wing in Brazil is okay. They engage in this cultural war nonsense to try to stay relevant after Bolsonaro ridiculously lost the last elections even after all things he did to try and steal it.
I just heard Eric Hughes give a talk about this and the non-regulatory solution was pretty simple, flood the field with so much bullshit that the data collected is worthless. Sadly most people happily give away their most personal information for "free" email, chat and search engine. I don't think most people are willing to actually pay for the services provided to them in exchange for their detailed personal information, maybe people's opinions will change but I wouldn't bet on it and meaningful regulation written by lobbyists and voted on by octogenarians probably won't happen either.
California-based HN/YC doesn't comply with that kind of request, for instance. They offer to rename the user to something random but that's it.
I used to have 768kbps down / 128kbps up cable internet. There was some buffering on Netflix at the start of a stream but it was fine. When we got upgraded to 1.5Mbps down / 256kbps up there was basically no buffering at the start of Netflix or YouTube streams and FaceTime worked fine.
