> I'm sure its possible there is crossdrift, where those influences could have some inspiration from Dali, but I find that too far removed to matter.

you learn language as a child by being exposed to adults and peers using it, and in a similar way you soak up your culture. Then in adolescence, rebel against it, whatever it is... All small children go through a phase when drawing where they put arms and legs coming out of a head with drawing a body. But all children do not draw melting clocks. These connections between things are all there is, to me so close and unremoved it is all that matters.
Something about this looks unreasonably fun. I'd love to get into this.
It's not either/or, both things can be true. The mrna vaccines have probably had more resources spent on promoting them than any product in recent history (ie marketing). I would argue that their mindshare is due to that and not some innate ability of the public to know what will be a successful pharmaceutical technology or not.

This is all orthogonal to whether or not the tech eventually delivers on all the possibilities.

Seems like only you can answer your own question. How you do so might be in the air,with unanswered questions like:

* Will that level of focus drag away from my personal interests?

* Why, in the long run, do I want/need the advanced degree?

* What do I want to accomplish in the really big picture,and what does the PhD project contribute to that?

This is… not true. CS170 specifically teaches about reducing NP problems to SAT (you can find this in the Algorithms textbook linked in the class syllabus). I recall solving one of the projects by using MiniSat after converting a problem to 3-SAT. FWIW, the textbook is excellent and the course was very useful.
At the beginning of the pandemic I obsessed over large land listings on Redfin/Zillow. I thought I’d finally found the bargain when I saw something near a Clearlake here in CA. It was something like 80 acres for less than $400k…

Well it turns out Clearlake was heavily contaminated with mercury when there was an active mine right on the lake…

For anyone who is interested in older cameras I use a Canon Rebel T3i as a webcam and it works fantastically. In 2020 because of you-know-what Canon released a webcam driver for a bunch of their cameras and the T3i is one of the oldest ones supported (the most recent version of their driver drops support for this camera but older drivers work just fine).

Paired with an AC power adapter and a mount for my monitor it's a nice webcam. I bought a 24mm lens for it that was reasonably affordable and I get a nice "real" bokeh effect in my background (it's not as blurry as the computational one but it's a nice to have). (FWIW I also push it through OBS to crop it).

NVidia has split 5 times (cumulative 48x) since 2000. It closed 2000 around $2.92. It is currently $389.93. Totally gain 6400x. If you ignore the last 12 months, NVidia's last peak was $315 in 2021, for a total gain of 5178x. -ish.
Maybe we could popularize written reviews and tagging it with schema.org data [1].

That way:

* You own the review

* You can decide to take it down or not (harder for HR teams to tamper with them).

* It would be on the reader to decide if the review is spam or not.

There are plenty of pages where a review can be published for free, for instance, github pages.

> Yes, because Brave is the model of ethics! Oh, wait a sec...

Short answer:
Well, compared to FF and the fine article that we are commenting on ... yes, it's certainly a model that FF could adopt!

Long answer: I don't see ads in Brave. I don't recall even installing any third parties to block ads. As far as the adtech space goes, Brave is indeed more ethical than FF (or Chrome, or Edge).

Now if you are of the view that, ethically, blocking ads is a bad thing, then I'm afraid we cannot actually discuss this any further, because there are very few arguments that will get me to change my mind about blocking advertisements, not least of which is the ad under discussion, i.e. "FULL-SCREEN-IN-YOUR-FACE-COVER-EVERYTHING-AND-STOP-THE-USER-FROM-DOING-ANYTHING-UNTIL-THE-AD-IS-DISMISSED" type of ad.

The Quad (of which India is a part) is the structure more appropriate for that. The point of the Gn (currently 7) was to have a little structure for the folks who were a big part of the global economy and were worth talking together when there was a common problem.

Countries like India and China are still pretty poor on a per capita basis and don't really interact with the international banking, force projection, or trading systems in the way the G6/7 members did and do. G7 members all have per capita gdp in the same neighborhood which gives you an idea of their ability to respond collectively to events (whether they do so well is another matter).

Russia was always an anomaly; adding them to the group was more an aspirational goal than a practical one, so it's no wonder that fell apart.

SK makes a lot of sense and doesn't even need the justification ("should have another asian member"), though its per capita is far behind the others. Compare that to Australia (also a Quad member) which has a higher per capita gdp than most G7 members and an economy around the same size as SK's -- it's not really big enough on those other topics to be worth adding to the Gn).

It is worth watching Yuval Noah Harari's recent talk at Frontiers Forum. [1]

In it he details the possibility of AI being used to create new religions that are so powerful and persuasive that they will be irresistible. Consider how QAnon caught on, despite pretty much anyone on HN being able to see it as a fraud. Most people are thinking about how AI will impact politics but I am really interested in how it will impact spirituality.

I've been rabbit-holing on last centuries New Age cult scene like Manly P. Hall and Rudolph Steiner. Even more respectable figures like Alan Watts were involved in some ... interesting ... endeavors like Esalen institute.

We are over-due for a new kind of spirituality. My bet is that AI is going to bring it whether we want it or not.

Well, it's not that terrible if you're a collective like the current owners are.

Artists, religious cults, left-wing activists, right-wing/sovereign citizen activists, preppers, eco activists - all these groups tend to like such opportunities, because the heavy lifting (initial infrastructure construction, road access, legal issues and general paperwork) has all been sorted out already.

The biggest issues for them tend to be Internet access (although Starlink changes the equation seriously here) and access to essential services - you can/have to self-organize a volunteer firefighter corps and basic shops, in the US you can even run your own police force (although it raises serious ethical concerns), but medical services and mail is a massive hurdle.

It's not interesting at all. Exactly who was going to fire Bezos from Amazon?

Also, I know this is the internet, but disapproving of one person doesn't mean that you're promoting another random person that wasn't even part of the conversation. If you want to bring Bezos in, at a minimum you're required to find a single person, living or dead, who thinks that Bezos's donations were fine but Eich's were terrible.

Yes. Risk of Shingles doesn't decrease after an outbreak (sadly).
You're right, but I don't think so. From the moment that 80/99% realizes they're out of work, it's over. That's why you see idiot anti-AI spokespeople showing up, why Altman is invited to Bilderberg, why EU is making AI-laws. They're not against AI, as such, but please do not "awaken" the working class. Keep it for "trusted parties" or the military only. What I am curious about is how NVIDIA will position itself against that background.

Personally, I did really wish this would have been a new-era moment where society would take a step back and evaluate how we are organizing ourselves (and living, even), but I fear that AI comes too late for us, in the sense that we're so rusted and backwards now that we cannot accept it. Or any important change, in fact. It's pretty depressing.

Having recently seen a product move from Qt5 to Qt6, there sure are reasons! Off the top of my head, some of the things that had to be done:

Remove every use of the previous QRegExp class (no longer existed in QT6), which was always bad, and replace it with the similar but slightly different behaving QRegularExpression class. Different enough that it's not just a simple grep.

Rip out huge chunks of XML processing code that used QT5 XML libraries that were outright withdrawn, and replace them with alternatives.

Rewrite some sound generating code to switch away from Qt5 classes that straight up no longer existed, to something else.

Rip out uses of the QT5 web engine classes; I think I recall it was replaced wholesale in QT6, but it was nothing but trouble through its life so there was an outright rewrite of everything using it to just do something non-web instead.

Any others that were outright withdrawn we also must have replaced. Can't remember them all, but here's a list: https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/whatsnew60.html#removed-modules-in-qt...

Some of those have an extended life in a QT6 "QT5 compatability module", but that's clearly not going to get a lot of security and bugfixes and there's no telling when it might vanish.

Lots of very fiddly changes to the Qt metatype system had people trawling through weird and wonderful error messages working out what was going on and how they could replace it.

QT6 demanded to be built under C++17; after switching the compiler to that, there sure was a whole lot of old code that either didn't compile at all, or flashed heavily red when the compiler looked at it, that demanded a rewrite.

All this, and when you're done, you've got something that's probably functionally about the same as what you had beforehand, but the previous version of the software under QT5 had a decade of use testing and this is brand new.

No customer is going to pay for all this effort, so there is very little impetus on anyone to move from QT5 to QT6 if the QT5 version works and updates keep coming. It's only at the end that people are finally forced to make a move.

“su is mostly designed for unprivileged users, the recommended solution for privileged users (e.g. scripts executed by root) is to use non-set-user-ID command runuser(1) that does not require authentication and provide separate PAM configuration. If the PAM session is not required at all then the recommend solution is to use command setpriv(1).”

To me this seems to be an upside down view of US immigration law (and US law in general). The INA is the supreme immigration law of the land. DOL regulations and documents are downstream and subordinate to the INA. The true “intent” of the H1B program is whatever is in the INA.

> The employer has to prove that they have tried and failed to hire a US worker qualified and willing to do the job for the prevailing wage.

No they don’t. You’re probably thinking about the requirements for employment based green cards, which do require a labor market test. The H1B does not.
"1% false positive rate => 99% confidence about a positive signal" is a really intuitive step to take, but you should be careful because it turns out to be horribly wrong in general: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base_rate_fallacy

> Until recently spouses of H1-B visa holders were not allowed to work (I don't think they should either).

FWIW, I disagree with this one point. I know a lot of partners of H1Bs and there is a large psychological toll to not being allowed to "contribute to society" if you are able and wanting to. There is also a large psychological toll to moving to a new country, a lot of America's adult friendships are created in the workplace. Finally there is a large psychological toll to not having independence in making some side money to be able to spend it the way you want (even if the money earner "gifts" that freedom - because why wouldn't they - there can be a guilt associated with using the money).

Therefore, I do think its overall worthwhile for partners of H1Bs to be allowed to work if they so choose.

That said, I do feel like the minimum household salary for getting an H1B should be high enough to compensate for potentially both people working in the US, in a way that helps uplift wages for US citizens. That might mean using p91 or p95, I'm not qualified to pick the exact value, but I do think the general strategy would be best for "the best and brightest" immigrant families(or individuals) and for citizens.
