Tres cool. And the query results look pretty relevant/interesting so far.

Is there a way to shrink the sidebar font wrt to the main content font; similar to Chrome Reading List sidebar? I don't see any mechanism in the code to do that. ATM it's (naturally) the same size as the rest of the page which gives the sidebar the same "importance" as the main content.

I'm thinking something simple, like dropping in a CSS snippet, as opposed to a whole framework of different CSS stanzas _a la_ Obsidian.
You're still going to need a team of people to do all sorts of $stuff with a BFDL, and when people get involved conflicts happen. Python has been without a BFDL for almost 5 years, and seems to be doing fine. I'm not so sure this is a huge factor.

I think the bigger reason is that Rust tends to go to great lengths to avoid drama and overemphasises kindness a bit too much, which somewhat paradoxical seems to invite drama like this. Things that should be said are left unsaid, pressure builds up, resentment and suspicions linger.

The entire Rust moderation team resigned a year ago, without offering a reason. Who knows what happened, but if three people all resign on principle then it sure gives off a certain smell, and it's not a good one. Being more open would have invited drama, yes, but now the lingering vibe remains "there is something fishy with the core team, but we don't know what". This sort of "there is something but we don't know what" seems to be a recurring theme in RustEnders. I'm all in favour of the goals as such, but I'm a lot less sure that the methods actually achieve that.

In addition: kindness also means being forgiving of the unkindness of others (within reason, of course). People sometimes seem to forget that. Everyone is an asshole sometimes.
I second this, since it is an app an online payment makes most sense. A simple donation button with paypal/venmo (or something the locals use) would make reasonable money to cover monthly infra expenses at least.

You are missing the point due to your biases, Churchill caused the death of millions, opposed the independence of India. He is not some garden variety racist who just held his offensive views while staying in his basement and did no harm to others.
And yet millions of new phones sold in India, Africa, South America and Russia have only A53 cores.
Russians also have strong opinions - doesn't automatically make it a democratic or liberal country.
LLMs learn to make predictions. They don't learn to imitate. They don't learn to simulate. There's nothing about learning to predict that makes the intelligence you gain constrained to the data you're learning from. The opposite if anything. But that's another argument for another time.

The point I was making is that LLMs don't come out of training the average of what they've learned.
They can make predictions on any state in their training.

They can make predictions about the most intelligent state and the dumbest state. The most emotional state and the least emotional state. It's this powerful prediction range that makes them capable of imitating or simulating damn near anything in the training set to high and ever increasing accuracy.

If by $BigTech you mean Google. Apple just released a patch for iPhone 5S devices (circa 2013) earlier this year.
Same for my family here in a midwestern state. I'm curious where OP is living...
I think it parallels the Christian Crusades where crusaders believed they had a moral duty to reclaim the holy land and convert people to Christianity, causing enormous damage in the process. Similarly, the Rust™ ecosystem largely believes they have a moral imperative to replace all software for the cause of memory safety.

Much like priests hidden away in their sacristies, the Rust™ community meets my criticisms with the silence of a prayerful vigil, retreating to the cowardly sanctuary of downvotes instead of engaging in the enlightening pursuit of reasoned dialogue. [1][2][3][4]

One is a per year number and another is a total? Although you can only be on an h1B for six years, so theoretically there are only a max of 390k or so H1Bs at anytime.
So you were able to extract the prompt. Hooray. But why did you post it on this thread?
Brahmins aren't the merchant class in the regions where the Bengal famine hit (modern day Eastern Bihar, Jharkhand, Orissa, and Northern Bengal). Brahmins in that region (in actuality Bhumihar) were traditionally farmers.

Merchants in that region were primarily from the Marwari, Agarwal, Jains, Punjabi (Jatt+Khatri Sikh+Hindu), Telegu, and Bania communities (depending on the region).

Please don't talk about social structures if you don't have the knowledge - especially about regions which in living memory have had severe caste violence.
If you read the financial plans of these direct primary care clinics you’ll see that they intentionally lose money on primary care with the strategy of making up for it in increased referrals business.

Healthcare is so greedy. Thanks for sharing this.
these articles will forever pin the blame on the british and not any of the other emperors or conquerors that came before, the brits are just the most recent
My guess would be ramping up population growth. Any wealth created by colonial rule, and British technology / peace / medicine, would be turned into more people surviving into adulthood.
wow.

"I don't see any solution that involves UKRAINE remaining an independent country. Corruption is so deep they will just find the next thing to make money off. Illegal pharmaceuticals, etc.

It would never happen, but why not annex UKRAINE? Send in special forces to wipe out the biggest bureaucrats and put the entire country under Marshall Law for x amount of years until they are transitioned into RUSSIAN REPUBLICS.

The southern border of UKRAINE is much easier to manage. Would give us full control of Black Sea, etc. RUSSIA could be more influential on some of those smaller UKRAINIAN border countries."

I mean. This is HN so I'm presuming no /s tag was inferred? You want to invade a sovereign country because the US has an insatiable drug habit?

Beyond that, your argument was scarily like you were shitposting while LARP-ing as Putin.
You can always rely on Kremlin media attacking the EU. Why is this site even allowed on HN. ZeroHedge is just Russian propaganda these days
State your assumptions, prepare to be boarded -9front IRC banner.
This is a somewhat simplified view. The prevention of famines is related to a wide variety of factors, not just the availability of nitrogen fertilizer, such as water infrastructure (deep wells, canals, etc. to alleviate droughts), transportation systems like railroads and jet planes (to bring food relief rapidly to famine-stricken regions), political stability (as wars can disrupt water and food infrastructure), etc.
A First Look at the Headset That Could Be Apple’s Biggest Competition
Of course The Atlantic is trash.

Try reading one of the CCP's mouthpieces for a week and it will be such a revelation of how bad US news is that you are more informed about the world by a CCP mouthpiece than the US trash news.

In the US, we basically have competing factions of the National Enquirer vs Weekly World News reporting on a constant food fight for clicks. A person is not more informed by reading what side threw a sandwich across the table first.

They are all such complete and utter shit.
also it's hosted elsewhere. they may be updating it. they may redirect your calls to different buckets. some queries might perform worse as they are under load.

the whole "prompt science" is utter ridiculous to begin with because you can't even isolate what your testing. not to mention you're graduating with a paper on the 2000 equivalent of "how to find mp3s on Google" lol.
> The EU is working on a law that forbids selling devices with known vulnerabilities.

How does that help when most vulnerabilities are found after the phone was sold?
Guess, now that I think about it, Python and the 'white' spaces was kind of drama. But think it was still about technical merits, like do you prefer that style or not, don't remember the 'community' being melodramatic.
"This is why the evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins was so wrong when he wrote:

‘We are survival machines – robot vehicles blindly programmed to preserve the selfish molecules known as genes.’ (Richard Dawkins, ‘The Selfish Gene’, preface to 1976 edition, Oxford University Press, 1989, p.v)

We are not ‘blindly programmed’ at all. We are aware of the thoughts, passions and instinctual programming that drive us."

Author lost me there when they failed to understand what Dawkins is saying here and insufficiently refuting Dawkins (probably due to lack of understanding it).

Observationally we have become aware of our base instincts over time (through science) however we're pretty much at their whim.

We don't choose or control or have any real influence other than following our programming as to what we find sexually attractive or not.
All of those anecdotes are about Facebook though. Does Google have this bug? The two software stacks are completely different.
Me too! I was like woah, I guess they gave up.
No physician should (and I expect would) diagnose hypertension on a single office-based blood pressure measurement. We suspect it based on the office measurement and then confirm.

I last worked in primary care back in 2016 but even back then we would either do multiple visits or ask the patient to check multiple times at a pharmacy (or at home if they could afford a cuff).

24 hour ABPM is the preferred method for diagnosis as you stated but has limited (albeit growing) availability today.

Fortunately consumer health-tech advancements has resulted in cheaper accurate BP cuffs but this is a recent-ish phenomenon.
USD is fairly widely used. But it's not "code" in the sense that I mean it. It's (mostly) declarative (like HTML) so I lump it in with obj, fbx and gltf.

I am assuming code means "executable code" - I know the boundaries are fuzzy here and some file formats are Turing complete - but I guess what I'm saying is that I'm still not sure what you're asking!
Competition. Multiple vendors can compete with RISC-V while ARM can prevent all competition with licenses, if it really will happen is a different case, but I'm optimistic about the potential.

I had a keychain of a CPU in resin for a long time, Intel would sell them in the gift shop because they were failed prints.

Also, in SC5? there was a hallway that had a bunch of plaques from partner companies... and what was awesome was the amount of "Engrish"

Some of the comments were along the same line as "for great justice" (if you are aware of that old meme)
This should be obvious enough to not need pointing out, but at the time of the Bengal famine there was a world war in which Japan was invading Asia and Germany was invading Europe. Many of the things that exacerbated the Bengal famine were due to defensive measures designed to avoid even worse deaths if those invasions were successful.

In contrast, the famines in the USSR and PRC weren't caused by invasion. They were caused by the collectivization of agriculture for ideological reasons.
> so they use contractors?

Exactly, plausible deniability, I would say.

Why risk your pension benefits or even a Congress testimony when you can say it wasn't you without technically lying?
> No organisation should be "called out" for a lack of - insert-race-here- representation unless that organisation is in fact discriminatory.

I don't think you're being very reasonable here. A lack of diversity is just a piece of data: it might be complete coincidence, or it might be related to some underlying bias or discrimination. "Calling out" a lack of diversity is just bringing attention to that piece of data. If you want to ignore it, fine. If you want to make a case that the lack of diversity isn't a problem and/or has nothing to do with bias, by all means do so. But you can't just tell people to shut up about inconvenient facts until discrimination is proved in a court of law (or to your own satisfaction, or whatever unstated burden of proof you think is sufficient).

Free speech and dissent is important. You might not like it when people point out obvious and available data like "hey, this group seems to be pretty homogeneous", but that doesn't mean those people should shut up.
This is not true. The article gives the great examples of a song through its lifecycle: covered, remixed, remastered, compiled on a greatest hits record, included on a soundtrack, etc. Same song, sometimes. Same recording, sometimes. Different database entries, always.

To the extent that "an informed human" and "the same song" have meaningful definitions of "informed" and "same", you've just recreated the problem.
My partner and I have been together for 7 years, we bought a house together, haven’t found a compelling reason to get married.

Marriage is a complex and binding contract that for two high earners is a tax disadvantage. The most prominent benefits I’ve learned are some situations around visitation rights, and avoiding being compelled to testify against your spouse. It comes from a very dubious history of the husband essentially owning the wife. The “commitment” of the legal marriage obviously doesn’t prevent people from falling out of love or breaking up, not that it should – if one partner stops loving another they will still leave the relationship one way or another. So, why marry — besides “tradition” and “society wants you to for whatever reason”?
SARS was definitely much worse than COVID, and less infectious. It also wasn't infectious without symptoms. That helped it be contained, and it never escaped containment for very long like COVID did. It is very unlikely there were a lot of uncaught infections (unlike COVID) due to those factors. Not impossible a few slipped through though, which is why they put that in the paper. If it had, the death toll would have been astronomical. It was closer to Ebola than the Flu, and that had similar limiting effects in spread - it couldn't fly under the radar long enough, and it scared people enough that they took it seriously.

With COVID, it could spread asymptomatically (and did), and it was never clearly fatal enough that EVERYONE took it seriously, which allowed it to spread easier.

Another huge part of it IMO was it took awhile to develop reliable tests. The PCR test had up to 50% false negative rate for infections depending on when during the infection the samples were taken, and took awhile to get results back.

Antibody tests didn't happen for a long time, so even retroactive knowledge was spotty, and antigen tests were a year+ out, and also had a relatively high false negative rate but at least were faster and more reliable (fewer false positives).

Since it was clearly infectious without major symptoms, and the symptoms were often so vague (cold and flu like unless it got really bad) it was really hard to figure out what was actually going on.

I'm keeping a close eye on WASM as a way to hotload code in Unity and as a way to access libraries from a variety of ecosystems.
After the chaos of Python 2to3, backwards Python's backwards compatibility has been amazing. The tool is created for developers and claims 100% code coverage. Determining if it works with any specific version of Python would be a trivial exercise of clone the repo, make an venv, and run the tests.

This is something that a dev should do when evaluating a new dependency even when it claims to support the version relevant to you. Sadly, many do not.
Exactly the kind of things that prevent me to approach Rust. Part of their community is very unwelcoming.
If your opening argument is that the Belgian King creating a corporation to exploit the resources of a big chunk of Africa isn't technically "colonisation" but an example of the kind of bad stuff that happens when there isn't enough colonisation, then you know you're off to a bad start.
> Creating a sperm or egg from any cell

That word "any" in there makes me nervous. How long will researchers resist trying this with a cell from a 100yo person or a cancer cell.
Whether this works depends on how comfortable the dev is picking up the phone. I had a local site and was just too terrified to do this, so I just kept my site up unmonetized (unlike OP it wasn't costing anything).

One day two salespeople contacted me and suggested taking over ad sales, and managed to sell thousands (I think it was somewhere between $5k-$10k/month, but it was a long time ago) a month in ads for the site. This was for a city with a population of 200k.
If you "require" test to implement a feature, you're doing wrong.

The issue is not the test, it's what and how you manage your test suite.
BRLTTY, for one, reads vcsa devices, which don't see CSI colour sequences at all, but are straightforward arrays of character+attribute pairs.
Congratulations, you've discovered the corp-speak equivalent of being arrested for avoiding arrest!
I'm not GP. Pop country tends to be fine, but standard country often has the stories revolving around children being exactly like their parents or people getting drunk. There's also something about the rhythm and the melody (and possibly the instruments - such as acoustic versus electric). This could be a chicken and egg problem though, where the messages made the characteristic rhythm and melody turnoffs. I'm not positive though, because some of the older Elvis songs just aren't interesting.

The big issue may just be that I didn't grow up listening to Country.

The revenge message in Carrie Underwood's "Before He Cheats" is definitely a saving grace, though. I don't change the station when that song comes on.

Unless it's something like Swing, I hate Jazz more than Country. Which is definitely an instrument and rhythm/melody issue.
And besides voting and being able to leave the country for more than six months, there are no advantages to citizenship. A lot of people just stop at their green cards, especially if their origin country doesn’t support dual citizenship.
Affiliate pricing perhaps?
Just by the fact that they recommend 1 year which is just an arbitrary number of days picked(365) is a red flag. Every person should have different days, say you have family history then after age 50 visit more often even less than a year. They are just lazy to apply individualized care
It's because of all of this that I've for many years felt a need to have all my ducks in a row before even considering dating with the intention of starting a serious long-term relationship, let alone getting married. No judgement towards anybody with different feelings — everybody's situations differ — but I'd feel like I was irresponsibly leading on the partner in question if I weren't financially reasonably prepared for the commitment involved.

Evidence is pretty much never considered in "enterprise security" purchasing. The entire industry runs on snake oil, which the buyers knowingly buy because they themselves only need it to tick some checkbox on an audit form and rarely care about actual security.

The short answer to all of these questions is "Yes". Already in mice, and there's no reason to think it wouldn't be possible in humans someday. Although I think it's a ways out; we can induce pluripotent stem cells and do some differentiation into other cell types but I don't believe we're at fully functional germ cells in humans.

The original event this post was referring to, was someone dropping out of a conference because they were asked to give a keynote talk and then pulled from it last moment. They decided to opt out of the lack of professionalism and not go. Nothing to do with LGBTQ. Internet nerd drama has existed since the dawn of Usenet and IRC.

You think no-one uses a phone more than two years old? Most manufacturers drop support for older models fairly quickly so I bet there are millions of unpatched Androids older than that in the wild.
I found a simple workaround too — not buying HP printers. Nor other HP products.
I really underestimated the program when the hospital asked if we wanted to sign up for a free book program. But my son is now three with a little library made up mostly of these books. He also loves checking the mailbox for a new book!

This is such a wonderful program and I am so grateful for it. I wish/hope it becomes global.
This is false. Only GUI terminal emulators do it this way, and only some of them. Programs like BRLTTY can attach to the likes of screen(1) sessions and kernel virtual terminals. KVTs very much do have grids of cells, and that's exactly what BRLTTY opens and reads, as a matter of fact. A vcsa device file is an array of character+attribute pairs.
From the very beginning Rust was a political movement first, and a programming lang second.

People seemed to have forgotten some of the early events from years ago when Rust was less popular.

>>The Rust project needs to stamp this out before it begins to fester

It has been there since the formation of the Lang, it is built into the DNA of the community. people that want technical merits to shine are the ones trying to change the community, not the other way round
Or rather than cold calling, put up a banner ad soliciting advertisements. (Or both.)
And if superintelligence is possible then it assumes that it is useful. There are plenty of dumb systems that get good enough results. You can get better but it costs 10k times more for 1% gains. So why bother.

Also if superintelligence is useful then it also assumes that making intelligence ++ is easier than making intelligence. It might be that as you climb the intelligence ladder each next step takes super exponential intelligence to take such that we're already seeing the max.

Given that I haven't even seen a meaningful discussion on what intelligence even is, I tend to think superintelligence is probably not a threat.
I have printed over 5000 pages with mine, the head is fine (head test printout looks good), I don't know what you're referring to?

To me it rather looks like consumers have been so thoroughly conditioned to distrust printers that they aren't even capable of trusting the good ones anymore maybe - and thus unfortunately keep buying the garbage ones, thinking it doesn't make a difference.

I.e. whenever one of the actual solutions is discussed there's this gossip of "nah, they're also ripping you off" - but I have the thing right behind my desk and it works just fine.
