> Why should a criminal benefit?

Because that's the way the 4th amendment works. If the state isn't good enough at their job to train their agents properly, then fuck 'em.

> If his rights were violated, he can sue.

They were, he did, and this case was the result. His rights were simply violated with no recourse, is what this judge said.

Crafting clubs. In particular, I found a spoon carving (green wood working) club that was astoundingly welcoming. Attendance is pretty even between men and women and across ages. Pretty diverse ethnically, too.

My wife and I go every month and people started inviting us to post-event activities. We know most of the regulars by name and even people I don't know recognize us. It's super casual and everyone is just there to enjoy the outdoors while they work on their projects.
I think most of us would like to a part of that type of relationship. Usually you can find these potential partners in communities.
Gotcha. It is also one of my favorite shows(and I am far from a space theme enthusiast), but I think I focused more on the protovirus and what not, I should go back and re-watch it again!
Pot/kettle. You win in neither of those scenarios.
It is worth noting that credit card debt was similarly high just before the pandemic.
Nobody's ever going to continue discussing things with you when you end your comments with barbs like "if you don't answer, you're not engaging in good faith."
It's okay to write down one cliche for each year of your life, it's not okay to have so little self awareness that you make it a blog and post it on HN yourself.
Depends very much on the boson and its interaction with the (extended) Standard Model that includes it.

Axions, if they exist, take part in nuclear interactions. You can expect to have a bad day when encountering them at high density (e.g. expect fissions from neutron disruptions).

In the preprint at the top, the Action (eqn (1)) and Lagrangian densities (eqn (2)) are non-interacting (except for self-interaction and gravitation) for tractability reasons, so the scalar boson version is only sorta like the axion. The paper's setting only considers each type of boson in isolation from any other type of matter in the universe. However any infalling body which has any nonzero distribution of these proposed vector or scalar bosons in them would expect the self-interaction term to be important, so you could still have a bad day for non-gravitational reasons.

I don't think a non-relativistic analysis of a manifestly relativistic compact object is particularly enlightening. Boson stars can be more compact than neutron stars (see Figure 2 on p. 7 of the preprint). Qualitatively though, you'd have a bad day if you got too close; you are right that tidal stresses are probably what will get you in the case of only-self-interacting bosons.

The Roche limit, developed well before even special relativity, matters for slowly-orbiting (hyperbolic orbits count) self-gravitating bodies (so big asteroids and comets count). Your parent commentator's flight would presumably be in a spacecraft (or suit) that is held together by intermolecular forces instead of its own gravity. Those forces are typically much stronger than gravity; gravity only overcomes them in relativistic systems.
There is a beautiful Freemason temple about 2 blocks from my house, one of my favorite buildings in the area. How does one get an invite to an event?
I want to emphasize something that other comments seemed to have missed - when a human artist makes a mistake, I have a sense of sadness, or pity. But when an AI makes a mistake, the types of mistakes it makes are revolting. I can't watch that beer AI video because looking at it for a couple of seconds makes me want to throw up.

That's the real problem with the "turds" in AI art - they're just close enough to pass first inspection, but you only realize afterwards how messed up they really are.

I honestly think for now I'd rather just deal with my own inadequacies as an artist than try to bargain with the little freaky demon in the computer to draw actually nice images.
Stuff like that is why the messaging switched from "global warming" to "global climate change". Both are valid, they just refer to different things:

Global warming - The tiny increase in the global average temperature, as a representation of how much energy is in the system. The average person has no real idea what this means.

Global climate change - The knock-on effects of that increase in energy, referring to more localized effects like larger hurricanes, temperature swings, destabilization of the polar vortex, and so on.

Why learn the actual basics of defi and how essential protocols like Curve work, when you can just read molly white’s blog and dismiss crypto for being a ponzi? Hell, why even bother to click on the Help link in the middle of the landing page? Those evil ponzis are always trying to dupe you!
To join the quote-and-respond masses in the comments:

> AI will be the single most significant driving factor of change in the world. If we solve AGI (or achieve intelligence close to AGI), we'll likely solve most of the world's problems.

I literally don't get the confidence in this statement. I'm not an AI-doomer by any means, but AGI (if possible) will likely be the most powerful technology humankind has ever invented. Just in terms of possible impact, why would we assume it will solve more problems than it will create (or the opposite)?

Think of recent super-powerful technologies we've invented. Sure, there's the potential for fantastic fixes to many problems that come out of nuclear tech. But there's also... the threat of nuclear annihilation? Is that all net positive? Do we even really have a way to evaluate on the timescale of 100 years? How can we know the net impact of nuclear tech in the next century, or millennium?

How can we call this sort of rhetoric anything other than blind optimism? Why would we have any priors about how AI will go? Why do we say things that make us blindly rush forward?

I'm not being sarcastic, or trying to argue one way or another. I'm genuinely asking. How does anyone have confidence in "AI is good" or "AI is bad" claims? Is confidence even good in this case?

For me, these questions lead into such deep and treacherous waters it's probably best to stop the comment there. There are limits to what even interested HN addicts can ask of each other.
In addition to these, HTTrack might be an option:

I just replied to a sibling about the CBP's 100 mile zone (i'll post here again). For some reason, the airports do not seem to be mapped as part of this 100 "inclusion" zone. Otherwise, the included population would approach 100%. That's a bit of trivia I've never seen addressed before, so adding that to the list of things that make you go hmmm

You're putting a weirdly large amount of trust into, functionally, some dude who posted on lesswrong. Sure he has a PhD and is smart, but so is basically everyone else in the field, not just in alignment, and the median person in the field thinks the risk of "doom" is 2-5% (and that's conditioned on the supposed existence of a high level machine intelligence that the median expert believes might exist in 40 years). That still might be higher than you'd like, but it's not actually a huge worry in the grand scheme of things.

Like, if I told you that in 40 years, there was a 50% chance of something existing that had a 2% chance of causing extreme harm to the human population, I'm actually not sure that thing should be the biggest priority. Other issues may have more than a 1% chance of leading to terrible outcomes sooner.
I think it would make sense to track this with a separate database for every host domain. Either that or have a user-only rendering layer which applies the colors, but which isn't visible to any scripts that are running.
Wouldn't that be a violation of NASA policy and possibly some other Federal agency policies?
So the most “notable” AI scientists on this list have clear corporate conflicts. Some are more subtle:

> Geoffrey Hinton: Emeritus Professor of Computer Science, University of Toronto,

He’s affiliated with Vector (as well as some of the other Canadians on this list) and was at Google until very recently (unsure if he retained equity which would require disclosure in academia).

Hence my interest in disclosures as the conflicts are not always obvious.
Location is going to significantly impact the number of opportunities. I love that about big cities, but I miss the peacefulness of the country.
Historically, it's been climbing or other social events for me.

But lately I've been working so much I barely have time for anyone or anything besides an occasional climb and spending time with my partner.
Can it auto-delete issues untouched for the last 30 days? Idk if jira can, but this would be the single biggest productivity boost to any organization forced to use this sort of software.

This is one of the worst run businesses in tech. The fact that they haven't hooked up an LLM to Alexa is insane, even if it's just for some kind of fun magic 8 ball toy thing. My kids already expect it to be able to answer arbitrary questions... now it just fails.
I've been listening to podcasts regularly for well over a decade (not quite 20 but since before 2010 at least) and your comment conveys the complete opposite of my experience. I've always disliked over-edited and vulgarized programs like RadioLab. I got into and still listen to podcasts because they are relatively raw and unfiltered, unlike commercial programs. When I look for new programs to pick up, my main red flags are short runtimes, rigid structures, excessive editing (music and sound effects), and hosts that "talk down" to the listeners, which is a feeling that I always have when I give RadioLab a(nother) try.

If anything, I'm starting to feel like podcasts are becoming too fake, commercialized and overproduced lately. Constant ad reads, hosts that don't really seem enthusiastic about what they're talking about, rotating guests who "coincidentally" have something that they want to promote. Most of the shows that I subscribe to have been going on for several years and are independent, but I struggle to find something new that's interesting and doesn't feel like a rehash of another one.
React still has some tricks up it’s sleeve with great potential that are (often) missing in comparable frameworks. Error boundaries, async (server) components, suspense, portals, dynamically imported components, concurrent mode. Just a shame it takes/took forever for suspense to resolve.

Cool. I'll wear my giant veiny penis hat to the office from now on.
well, it didn't help they fired a good chunk of the alexa team.
> So companies are making less on the products they sell through Amazon because as you say "sellers want to do is pass that fee on to the customer" but can't because Amazon's policies prevent this and this bad for the consumer because?

It's not clear whether it's bad for consumers who shop using Amazon, since they're getting some hand-wavy amount of "value" out of using Amazon's product search and free shipping. But it's certainly bad for consumers who shop directly from a seller's website. They're essentially subsidizing the seller's lost margin on Amazon sales without realizing it, and not benefiting from the free shipping or rewards points that the Amazon purchasers are.

The net effect is it doesn't make sense for consumers to shop anywhere but Amazon if a seller has already decided to bite the bullet of selling on Amazon. You'd think the free shipping and rewards points and hosting costs and Amazon's profit margins would all contribute to the price being higher on Amazon, but they don't because of this policy. So as a consumer, you're crazy not to take advantage of those rewards (or you're just feeling charitable to the seller, who does make a lot more when you buy directly).

> You also didn't explain why businesses are forced to use Amazon.

I'm not arguing a position anywhere near that outlandish. In fact, I'm not even trying to argue for a position! I'm just trying to describe the effects of Amazon's policy on the market. For what it's worth, I don't think their policy is uniquely onerous. For all I know it's significantly less restrictive than some of the deals brick-and-mortar stores have struck with their suppliers.

We probably agree that the "correct" way to deal with this is for suppliers to quit Amazon and lower their prices, if they truly think they're getting a bad deal. But the unfortunate reality is that our markets are extremely heavily regulated, so you'd be a fool not to at least try the courts now and again to see if you can make your deal better that way.
You didn't ask me and I'm definitely not suggesting you exclusively go out to bars but if you're in a nicer neighborhood, especially with patrons that skew older, you can basically flat out ask them for advice like you did here and you'll usually get a dump truck of it and their personal stories in exchange for your name and buying a few beers. You might even get invited to a backyard cookout that same weekend.

Alcohol is a double-edged sword because it breaks down barriers. It's your call what you do with the information and experiences it provides. It isn't too bad if you're careful.

You can take all that as a way to level up and be more sociable in sober settings like coffee shops. It translates to everywhere. People aren't different when they're sober apart from being slightly more defensive due to stress. That's actually a pretty good conversation starter if done in a non-confrontational way. The main skill is just learning to be genuinely interested in other people. It's easy to mimic this and return the favor when you've seen enough of this kind of attention given to you.
Yes, aware. Its cool, but the ergonomics feel very much the way I felt about Node.js with callbacks.

There is a different type of delight that comes from the ergonomics on async/await. This is the big jump React Suspense also needs to make. I am not smart enough to suggest anything here tho. I just know the framework (including React) that can give me that async/await delight while using Suspense will dominate!

Executing in a deterministic and expected way, to me, is _passion_. It demonstrates a care for the craft of software development.

Check out Anything Better if you haven't. It's my favorite podcast even though they don't do it that frequently anymore. It's just two friends trying to make each other laugh and bitch about their wifes, sports, smoking sticks and drinking.
Church is great for this specifically because it's a social group that spends all its time espousing the idea that all men are created equal, therefore ALL backgrounds are welcome. The most important piece of social mobility is knowing those outside of your economic circle.

Example: You need a job, you know your great buddy Bob has a spot that you could hop into, he knows you pretty well and that you're not an idiot, so he hires you on the spot into a job you never would've had the qualification for otherwise.

You’re not biased at all.

I am pretty humble but when it comes to engaging on substance, I am rather bold. I am not a professional podcaster and I don’t have millions of dollars or followers. But I have met and had real discussions everyone from Andrew Yang to Tim Berners-Lee to the guys from Stable Diffusion, to top Christian apologists etc. If a topic matters to me, I will go and try to speak with the people who have something major to say.

Sometimes you have to punch above your weight to get quality discussions. I am probably the least well known guy who had all those people on my show and subsequently developed friendships.

I tend to be very polite, try to focus on issues instead of the person. But I do remain intellectually honest, say what I really think, and if that means going against the orthodoxy and braving downvotes then so be it. My HN history is clear going back years. As I said I am open to taking people on HN who aren’t well-known, as long as they sincerely believe the opposite and can argue it well. Because I care about the issues, not celebrities. (Molly isn’t really that famous, if we had to be honest.)

Entitlement? Simply refusal to acknowledge “my place” in this capitalist society and exercising my right to “free association” instead. If someone is publicly putting out biased, one-sided narratives, I could very well reach out and welcome them to discuss. I have said NOTHING about her refusal for many months, to anyone, and totally forgot about it … until this very post where I shared my experience because it was relevant. Basically I think we need better platforms for public discourse.
With what? I’m pretty sure they aren’t making alloy aluminum/plastics. So what parts do you mean?
So who is going to write the software that powers everything? The moment you give users even scripting power, new unsigned software will emerge.
It always bothers me that everyone seems to think that non-passionate devs will be lazy and do crap work.

When you go to the grocery store, some cashiers are better at their job than others, right? Probably most of them, good or bad, don’t love their jobs and are not passionate about “cashiering”, but some care about doing a good job regardless.

I probably wouldn’t be considered a passionate dev, I don’t have open source projects for example. But I do care about my work and try to do it as good as I know/can. After all, even if I don’t do programming out of working hours, I still have 40 hours weekly devoted to it, so that’s plenty of time to practice.

Not to mention that I’ve met incredibly passionate devs… that were passionate about their stuff, not their employer’s. I’ve caught some of them working on their open source stuff during working hours, in fact.
Excellent question. I live in a neighborhood where each house has 1 acre of land, so a couple hundred feet between houses? Maybe 100-150 houses in the neighborhood. Perfectly flat, few to no big trees or shrubs that would obscure a house - it's in a desert, after all.

What's funny is I picked it because I was tired of having bad neighbors in my previous city. I told my wife this way, I can have bad neighbors, but at least they'll be bad neighbors way over there (pointing). Nearly everyone I've met in this neighborhood said that they picked it for the same reason. And they are the best neighbors I've ever had. So...try to find a neighborhood full of people who want to be away from neighbors?
I can't speak in general, but there is one thing I vaguely remember being on the React roadmap as part of the class->function switch that AFAIK never happened (at least it hadn't last time I did a lot of React, which was years into the switch): Because they were pure functions based on props, React-the-framework would have the class-based shouldComponentUpdate built into it and using function-based components everywhere would get a free performance boost.

Instead nowadays people who started with the function form don't know shouldComponentUpdate ever existed and all their React components constantly rerender.
If you're in a city, get a dog assuming you're ok with the responsibility that comes with having one.

About 5 years ago my wife finally wore me down and we got an English Bulldog. The friends that we made at the dog park have become some of our closest friends, and it's great having friends that you don't work with because you don't end up talking about work.

I'm not a very extraverted person by any means but whenever I'm out with the dog I end up talking to people I never would have. Especially when I take him to a dog friendly bar (shoutout to DBA in the East Village!)
I believe they changed this, you can now have an account with multiple levels of users. I believe as long as you have one $5 tier user, you can have additional $3 tier users at your domain.
I'd imagine the lawyer didn't understand what ChatGPT really is. Many people seem to think that it "knows" things, and they took that at face value.

In addition to the reasons given there, continuing would also give people a false sense of security, since an OS with vulnerabilities is dangerous to connect to the Internet even if the applications on it are fully patched.

No idea. I'm not offering solutions, merely complaints that the current approach of "answer a question that is hard for computers and easy for humans" removes disabled people from many places on the internet.
this is funny. However GPTs are great linear interpolators between stories and probably also between judgements. Maybe they will be useful to replace judges
> it's not like 7-11 does not sell a subset of the same dagashi mentioned in the article.

I got confused by your multiple negatives here, but this doesn't invalidate the point that 7-11 generally sells better substitutes for old-style dagashi. If they also sell some (probably on the better end of) dagashi, all the more reason to not lament the decline of the dagashi shops.
