Err on the side of observing with all applicable senses. What matters is how you feel about each other, and if recording moments to view later helps with this, go for it. I take photos mostly to share with my spouse/co-parent and sometimes friends and extended family, but since a few times of feeling... disconnected while behind a camera I have scaled that back to being okay with forgetting.

The lasting effect of shared experiences is stronger.
This protocol looks like someone didn't exactly know how HTTP worked, and more importantly, from where the bloat came from, then tried to do something too simple.

Then went on not understanding why people value Markdown, and do something entirely worse, without any good reason.
Something you may have missed here. What if the shared goal and belief of the group, was one that in practice is also exclusionary?

In that sense, even if the tone stays civil in group, the problem is still there.
This analogy assumes that there exists some relatively straightforward, secure, practical defense against superintelligence that I am arguing against, like protecting a website against SQL injection. I do not argue against such a defense if it exists - by all means research and present proposals. My comment is about the plausibility of AI domination. I don't think it is that plausible, so I have different views than others on how important it is that we restrict the development of AI.
Jeez, I miss the days of strong open source leadership.

kinda click baity to call that "outpeeform reasoning"
Oh I see, well "exploited" put it in the past tense for me but I can see how that might not be totally clear.
There is a writers’ Facebook group which states its moderation policy like this: “the group is moderated very lightly. We are not your parents; if you have a disagreement, work it out among yourselves.” I like this policy.

And it kinda sorta works.

That’s not saying that CoCs were not a kind of response to some pathological behaviors in online communities: you often are going to get either socially inept man-children, or people on the spectrum, and there are kindergarten-level conflicts. You get programmers who attach themselves to their work too much, have very strong opinions, and often will treat a set of rules as a puzzle you need to game, without much concern towards any consequences.

But my oh my, do lots of popular CoCs look like solution for that problem invented by the same kind of socially inept man-children who are the part of the problem. They likely have read the word “empathy” in a dictionary, but don’t understand what it means in their bones.

I have an even less charitable theory of what CoCs might be about, really, but for now I’m applying Hanlon’s razor and stick to what I’ve stated above.
I’m not sure how correct that is. Particularly in certain countries and especially in winter. I get out for more than 30mins every day and my levels are deficient when I tested.
Ask HN: Working with 2 Laptops
I need to work with 2 macBook Pro.

There is usually one primary task on one, but it is highly beneficial to have access to the other (e.g. writing some documentation related to the primary task).

I have been trying to think of ways to improve the experience.

The only reasonable solution that I can think of is to use a KVM to be able to use one magic keyboard and one magic trackpad, to drive both macBook pro.

However, I really love the built-in trackpad, and I've read that the external trackpad is less good. In addition, it is wireless, so I'm not entirely sure if that would even work with a KVM, and even if it does, I would expect way more issues that if it were wired.

In an ideal world, I guess there would be a way to buy the built-in keyboard/trackpad combination, wired.

Any random thoughts or experience sharing much appreciated, thanks!
Pro-cash movement warns that people could be losing more than they bargained for
I'd be surprised if it didn't kill the app immediately, I rather set rate limiting and have the option to pay, or use your api key instead.
> I agree with the description of your inner voice process, but does your inner voice produce new function or enum value names that you need to filter?

Yes! Very often. That's because it's exactly "thoughts that could make sense in some simplified form of reality, but need revision or filtering to match the actual real world".

In my actual code writing practice, I've spotted this manifesting in several ways. One, my subconscious often autocompletes some function name that it feels should be there (or would be nice to have it), which is immediately checked by the actual autocomplete of the IDE. Could be something like:

str.cou <-- oh, there's no count()
str.size() <-- there we go!

Or:

str.split <-- ?!? ah, it's C++, std::string
does not have a split() method.

Same with enum values, and many other things. If I pay attention, I can observe my mind producing these kinds of completions, which are often immediately shot down by some other process (involving memory?), by looking at the typed out thing and feeling it's wrong, or worst case, by the IDE or the compiler.

Another case is when I write new code and I know functions don't exist - I just write what my stream of thoughts provide, and either clean it out later, or actually implement the functions that it "hallucinated".
I would be much easier. Every work that is extended would have to be registered, and it’s extension would be public record.

There just needs to be a system where it’s easy and free to check the extension status of a work. If it’s older than 5 years, and wasn’t registered or extended, then it’s public domain. If it was registered, then the registration website would tell you the expiration date, and when the next renewal date is.

It would be about as hard as checking when a domain expires, which is much easier than the current system. Good luck figuring out who owns the copyright today on a random piece of text published 65 years ago.
Are there any communities that are really based on merit?
nope, it is would be better if it was RISC-V.
So they commit suicide to escape deadly temperatures? If they nuke the countries they want to move to - how does that play out? The choices of providing local cooling, putting more sulfur dioxide into the atmosphere, shades in space etc. will all look more attractive than extended suicide. That also includes negotiating solutions.
why pick up the phone if you could just put down a placeholder banner saying something like "do you want your company name here? write [an-email-address-thats-not-your-personal-mail]".

If the project is really becoming a local hit then you're bound to get contacted.
What does the App Store have to do with it? Apple supported adding web apps to the Home Screen from the very first iPhone OS.
I am assuming that dealing with how and what proxies cache is a long standing potential issue that anything here does not change at all. A caching proxy could currently use a truncated path on a GET request to build a cache key and it would not be caching the correct data. Section 2.1 in its entirety, along with the defined meanings of MAY, MUST and SHOULD, tell caches how to operate. A caching proxy not caching and returning the right content because it does not take into account the necessary data when determining the cache key is broken, and semantic understanding of the request is a local concern so any non-local cache needs to acknowledge that it doesn't have semantic understanding and use the byte array that is the body as a input to determine a cache key.
>We were all cooperating to reach the same end -- and those with a different opinion of that "end" were excluded.

If you mean those with a different opinion about the overall "end" of the project, this would make sense.

If you mean those with different opinions about any part of it, like how the project should implement reflection for example, it makes absolutely no sense to exclude them.

This would translate into an authoritative culture, where everything is predetermined, and no dialogue is allowed, except perhaps for trivial matters.
If it happens, Nintendo has a long memory. Better to get on their good side now.

I don’t doubt that walking and exercise are helpful. I do have issues with the conclusions of this study, however. Sure the participants walked, but they also repeated tests. I didn't see any mention of controls.
As one of the creators of bcrypt back in 1997, I find it somewhat surprising that, 25 years later, we still rely heavily on passwords.

Not that surprising. It's hard to think of any better alternative. Attempts at replacing passwords results in worse user experience or added complexity.

CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md but it's just the Marine Core code of conduct.
Yes. Nothing against it in theory, but it leads to stuff they don't like. Did you read the whole comment?
A serious improvement on these budget phones is turning animations completely off, it removed most of the stuttering and GPU usage doesn't spike just pulling up the keyboard.
As much as I found this funny and insightful, I think that you misrepresent the crusades (and perhaps, by extension, Rust). In my partially-informed opinion, conversion wasn't a major goal, even though people in conquered lands were given the option to convert and integrate. It was more important to claim "holy" land for Christians and make a show of owning and controlling the significant territory.

Whether or not Rustaceans want to banish C people to the desert to write printer drivers or to commit apostasy and assimilate I am not qualified to say.
I don't know if that's the best argument.

People used lead for pipes, drinking glasses, and other things for thousands of years before realizing the negative effects.
Gemtext is weird, it’s hyper-focused on a very specific form of text publishing. It’s not trying to be “old internet” featuring the creative freedom of its users, it’s just text content and that’s it. Not even inline links or images! Which I personally think makes it a bad format for the old-internet mainstay of “website about one specific interest of mine”.

I run a little capsule but I find myself with not much to do because I’m really not interested in writing long blog posts. I made a crappy HN reader over gem, it’s not very usable predictably haha

I still think HTML is the ideal creative-indy-internet format.
Well if it's possible to have an experience that suggests God exists, that'd be relevant in a book about whether God exists
The previous generations didn’t exactly set a good example for healthy, impersonal and professional argument.
The problem with markdown, as I understand it, is that it's not possible to correctly render without reading the entire document.

I think the gemini format is attempting to make it possible to basically render the document line by line.
YouTube removed dislike counts, so this guy made Rotten Tomatoes for YouTube
>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

Perhaps those crusaders have also witnessed several centuries of islamic invasions of said lands, and countries all around the general area, and the takeover by force of the local populations...
I’d have the renewal cost for the 55-60 year extension somewhere around the $2B mark. There would be _very_ few pieces of work that would be valuable enough to spend a few billion for 5 years of additional protection.

I’d structure the system so that Nintendo could probably afford (but it’s be painful) to blanket buy the 5-10 year extension for every title it publishes. But the 10-15 year extension would probably be an existential bet for the company, and the 15-20 year extension for every title they publish would be enough to bankrupt the company.

The fees should be painful enough that you renew specific works that are still economically productive, but impossible to simply renew everything.
This, a million times. Even in the Bay Area the non-FAANG tech companies (including stock contribution to compensation) is not the "retire in 5-8 years" levels people seem to think. I worked at non-FAANG for almost 6 years in this area before I moved to a "FAANG adjacent" (i.e., a company on par with FAANG scale, salaries, engineering needs, etc.) company. My max salary, as an EM, including stocks, never got over $200k/year, even though at that time I had over 10 years of experience.

I moved from an EM role with RSU stock compensation to an IC role at the same level with only pre-IPO options and my total compensation went up.
It's really not too simple unless you're trying to abuse a text document access/display system into an application platform.

If you're looking for a better stationary setup, why not just add more monitors? It shouldn't be much different from using a KVM switch to access two different desktops.

> I've read that the external trackpad is less good.

That's news to me. I daily drive the Magic Trackpad 2 and it feels as-good-as, if not better, than my 2018 Macbook Pro.
I worked at a large fortune 50 telco company everyone has heard of and people above senior engineer (lead, principal, etc) made well above 150k, there was discretionary stock, large bonuses etc.

You don’t see it at the lower levels but key employees make a lot more than what you are saying.
>> It seems like the problem here is not even power of one group, but an individual doing an end run around the group.

If so where is the transparency and accountability?

Who was the individual? Why did they do what they did?

If they do not represent project leadership, what will be done to fix this situation and prevent similar problems in the future?

If they do represent project leadership, why weren't the changes and the reasons for the changes communicated better?

A group of people mysteriously calling the shots in a closed room ultimately alienates the community and will stifle the long-term success of Rust.

I don't think that's a fair interpretation as having a Banksy on your property wouldn't be considered vandalism by most people (i.e. making your house worth 10x more). I guess if the owners objected to it, then they could get it removed though other people wouldn't be too happy about that.

Here's an example in Totterdown (also Bristol) that appeared whilst the house was about to be sold: https://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2020/dec/12/owners-...
I think kids born recently have higher chance to avoid death - in next 70 years a lot of can change. And even if in that time frame we won't be able to make people immortal maybe we can extend lifespan to 150 years with still healthy body? Then they would buy themself extra 80 years for another health innovations in race to immortality.

And immortality is not like you cannot die - it's just you wouldnt die becasue od aging. You could also kill yourself if you get bored after living 200 years. Today most people don't commit suicide because they got bored. Most people don't give up after having cancer. Average lifespan is 80 years and people know it and kind of accept it but would you be happy to have lifespan as dog or cat less than 20 years?

I think many people would want to have a choice to live 200+ years and in good health.

> The fact that most Cloud software today still tells devs to give it a static infinitely-lived authentication key is absurd. That just should not be possible; take that shit out of the software. We can do way better.

A lot of cloud software doesn't allow you to create the keys automatically in the first place.

Ideally only component with persistent key would be one that distributes temporary keys to the rest of the components but that's usually pretty complicated.
Some people hate what has become of the current thing so much that they want to throw all of it away. This is that.

The goal would be entirely achievable using your suggestion, but then you can't make something "simple" and "elegant".

Of course don't take my cynicism to mean that people shouldn't invent new things - they totally should, that's how we move forward. Mess around all you like. I just don't see it catching on. But I think that's not really the goal anyway.
The costs should be prohibitively high, unless the work is still extremely productive.

The costs should be tuned so pretty much only Disney would pay the 55-60 year extension for Mickey Mouse related works.
That's the legal standard, yes. I think the stark inconsistency between how the sexes are treated here, with one being given far more power to decide outcomes for everyone, strikes many people as wrong. In a world where 'equality' is one of the highest values, it's hard to square that.

They are currently being manufactured, and HP occasionally acquires superior competitors, then adds this crap to their existing models’ firmware.

I guess that’s an “advance” in their ability to extract rent from 30 year old IP.

I've heard that it's pointless to research, just go with Brother.
The NVIDIA cards are for mining crypto-coins too, and they successfully did that for years, before being made obsolete in that area by ASICs. Now it's time for the same thing in AI/ML too, hence why AI chips are being developed, they are the ASICs for this domain. That's the big picture. In 2 to 3 years none is going to use NVIDIA gaming cards for AI/ML anymore, no matter how many GFLOPS future 5000/6000 series are going to offer. They will be for gaming only. End of story.
And that's the problem.

You never stated the logical reason for why gender and race is different from technical opinions.

If I say gender dysphoria is an actual disease and defect in human biology and that gender reassignment only causes more problems then it fixes. Then that is an aspect of the truth. It is uncomfortable, but it is the truth.

Why should my comfort have extraordinary protection in this area but not in technical opinions?

I'll tell you why. Because neither should have protection. Discomfort shouldn't be protected. Only truth should be protected.

I agree with you in everything discomfort should have no protections at all, but the problem here is you're having a hard time separating truth and discomfort in the areas of gender and race. But you have an easy time of doing it with technical opinions. That is your bias.
>First, the €5.5B cost of the MOSE is mostly due to corruption. Several people have been investigated, and some condemned, but it's pretty clear to everyone that as much as 2/3rd of the cost can be attributed in one way to another to corruption.

Perhaps, but if we're being practical we should account for a similar increase in costs to any future solution. It's not like corruption will go away by the time the procurements for the next project go on...
I think fuzzy2 was saying other companies want to copy HPs maliciousness and also lock down their own cartridges. "advances" was referring to that maliciousness.
It's possible that selling advertising could be different, but in most domains, it's pretty well-accepted in startup land that founders (including technical founders) will have the highest close rates at the company, regardless of whether they're smooth talkers or have past sales experience. That's because no one you can hire is going to know or care as much about your product as you, the founder, and it shows. Professional sales people are not hired because they're better at sales, but because you can only scale so far with founders doing all the selling.
For text based open-source models I would start looking in the HuggingFace Models hub (https://huggingface.co/models) and filter on "Feature extraction". Here is an example (https://huggingface.co/sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v...). What do you plan to do with the embeddings once created?

For hosting solutions that depends on the traffic you're expecting. Is this just for testing or you have a level of traffic in mind?
Article says "Math.log(new Random().nextDouble()) generates a random number between -1 (exclusive) and 0", this seems a mistake. Actually this gives you any negative number. If you negate the output (i.e. -log(rand())) you get an exponential distribution,

According to the linked paper, an exponential distribution is actually optimal. (The paper defines "expiration gap" to be how much earlier than normal a key expires. The paper proves that, for any fixed allowance of expected expiration gap, an exponential distribution minimizes the expected stampede size.)
I lean toward the view that for information theoretic reasons the availability of meaningful information (training data) is likely the fundamental constraint on any rapid explosion of intelligence.

That being said I don’t think you need a god-like superintelligence to be more intelligent than humans. You just need something marginally better that can remain focused longer and doesn’t tire. As to whether that represents a danger to humans I think it depends on what we do with it and/or what kind of society or environment we embed it within. If we train or prime it to compete and dominate that’s what it will do. Same as with humans who are more criminal and violent when raised in unstable or abusive homes.

That’s actually very good
> Let me flip your quote back on you: how can intelligent people still believe in unbiased meritocracy being the default?
Very few people I think would argue that systems based on meritocracy have zero bias. This is not the point. The point is that today’s conventional wisdom by the progressive left is that these biases must be resolved by a system of affirmative action where every sub culture or group somehow is proportionally representative of the overall population based on race, gender, etc. For some reason, that outcome is thought to be the best way to affirm that no bias exists in a group. Personally I think that premise is just very flawed.
Meritocracy is not a perfect system. No one is saying that. But it’s the best system we have for engaging with the actual content that is relevant to any given group. As far as bias is concerned, the best we can do is call out specific instances of it and try to squash and correct those (and maybe this case in this blog post is one). There is no commonly understood way to measure bias or racism that everyone agrees with and so why would we think that measuring representation would somehow be the best solution?
