Yes UTM uses HVF via QEMU, some comments above say it can also use Virtualization.framework.
Also note that this is observation by one person from one post. I was hoping it was a larger scale study of sorts that covers users who did not have as large a follower base to begin with.
Monumentally. I cannot think of a single corporation or landlord that would not raise their prices to account for the higher amount of money in the system. It's like going to a car dealership and telling them how much money you have. A UBI would feel great in the short run but would quickly get swallowed up by the economy, but in the short term it feels good so it gets public support.
Are regular hockey fights pretty much just a North American thing?
Two things.

1. Go for walks.

2. Finishing things feels good and feeling good is rewarding on it's own. Focus on little wins and use them to build your shipping muscles.

*3. (bonus) We're all creatures of habit. Don't let yourself do time wasters (mine are YouTube and my news feed) in your workspace. It's better to take a walk (produce nothing, reenergize) than keep building a lousy habit around a time waster (produce nothing, make it more probable that you will continue to produce nothing).

I feel you. Be kind to yourself. It's unkind to knowingly allow someone to hurt themselves. Help you to find happiness and fulfillment like you'd help a friend.
Show HN: I scraped knife trading subreddits with GPT to build a cool table
Hey everyone!

I'm Yahia and i built a free website for pocket knife enthusiasts called knifegeek.io earlier this year, when i launched it on HN it hit the front page which was an awesome experience.

Since then i've continued working on the site in my free time and just added something i think is quite cool

Every 15 min, it grabs the latest posts to r/Knife_Swap, r/EDCExchange, r/CanadianKnifeSwap and parse them with open ai's chatGPT to extract the knife being mentioned, i then cross-reference it with my internal db of 50K+ knives (using chatGPT to check if this is correct) before enriching the data with the image and relevant links.

The end result is an easy to use table that updates every 15 minutes and shows you the latest knives that got posted with their prices (if mentioned).

Still a WIP but thought it might be worth sharing, let me know your thoughts :)

You’re both kinda right, personalized or targeted cancer therapy is definitely an incredibly promising field and the early results in various cancers are promising. Most notably in disseminated disease.

Simultaneously, one of the largest criticisms of osimertinib in resectable NSCLC has been that some oncologists got overexcited about the DFS results and patients have been unfortunately not receiving the traditional standard of care adjuvant therapy (old school platinum based drugs) which have a proven overall survival benefit (until today osimertinib did not, it now possibly does).

Targeted gene-directed therapy is cool but conventional chemotherapy is still really important.

ICIs are magic when they work.
Isn't there a high chance that research aimed at one type of cancer will end up transferrable to other types? Either the actual treatment/drug, or at least the methods and approaches to designing the treatment.
Starlink is sold with the standard razer and blades model. The terminal is estimated to cost $1500-$2500 to make, but it is sold for $500. OTOH the monthly fees are highly profitable and over time the initial costs are recouped.

In a war zone where Starlinks are destroyed this model would lead to massive losses.
Treatment Breakthrough for an Intractable Brain Cancer
Musk "got cold feet" when Ukraine started using Starlink to create long-range weapon systems that could in principle strike targets deep in Russia. The US Government has thus far refrained from giving such weapon systems to Ukraine, or made them promise not to use weapons that could in that way. So in this regard, Starlink and the US government are aligned in not wanting to overtly enable such an escalation. Probably the US government are the ones who made this apparent decision from Starlink.
Realistically, this study will serve to add another entry to the growing volume of UBI literature that basically says "Peoples lives are improved by free money." It will be used to argue "Research suggests that welfare programs should be expanded"

OpenAI has a conflict of interest in calling for AI regulation: Zerodha CTO
The desktop operating system he championed still rules the roost. While not every bet is a winner, it would be hard to argue that MS or Bill himself were bad at predicting the future of PCs. As they say, the best way to predict the future is to invent it.

This "prediction" is based on the idea that AI is antithetical to both Google's surveillance-based advertising business model and to Amazon's lock-in monopoly distribution system. You don't need to be a genius to see that's true.
No. You are sliding down a slippery slope without any thoughts about the parameters of what you’re doing.

If you don’t make explicit the parameters and extent of what is allowable there will be no end to the thing. A little water boarding is always helpful too, but there must be limits. The limits must be decided on by society without being influenced (propagandized) into supporting tyranny that nullified their civil rights.
It's fairly obvious that cars cannot think at the level of humans and are at a disadvantage sometimes. We also don't need fully autonomous driving to prevent careless mistakes.
In other words, the only way it could work is through total government control of the market to keep businesses from raising prices. Completely illogical in western society.

Lifestyle changes for one.

Do you smoke? quit smoking.
Do you live in areas with lots of air polution? High levels of radon where you live? Move.

Do you work with a bunch of carcinogenic chemicals? Find something else to do.

You can also get a gene test do see if you're suspectable to certain cancers.

But most importantly: listen to your body. If you feel that something is wrong, take it up with your doctor.
I think it's a branding thing. Basically the cargo cult (which copies what's new/hype/difficult) latched on it. Most of these hype things die in a few years with no lasting legacy or resume value though (mongo, serverless, et al).

Someday hopefully some genius proposes "hyper-sidecar-ification" where you take microservices and package them together in a sophisticated way to avoid the limitations and latency of an http barrier. As long as it's new & complicated & buzzwordy (even if it's just monorepo again) it can catch on.

The 3 top grossing films of 1941 the year of Citizen Kane:

* Sergeant York, a superhero war propaganda film

* Honky Tonk, a racy Clark Gable / Lana Turner western

* Louisiana Purchase, a zany Bob Hope musical

For the record, Citizen Kane was a flop, and there were many excellent movies made this year.

This is a bad argument.

In game dev, you sometimes avoid holding on to pointers for more than a single frame or operation because of this. Especially since many things get created or destroyed over time, and we want to keep our arrays densely packed to reduce cache misses.

We are trying a database like approach for retrieving references to things in our current project. It adds a small performance penalty, but it’s far from a bottleneck and it’s been nice to work with
Another way to frame it rather than ‘costs $85bn a month’ is ‘stimulates $85bn of economic activity a month’. Or at least that’s the intent.

UBI changes the economic model so that the minimum amount of economic participation a person can have in a month is greater than zero. Cash you can spend is equivalent to votes in how the market allocates capital, and UBI just makes sure everyone gets at least one vote (people with more money still get more votes, but nobody gets completely excluded). Once you have that mechanism in place, the idea goes, the invisible hand of the market will do a better job of solving all the other problems.

The challenge is preventing it all getting swallowed up by rentiers - landlords, lenders, basic services like healthcare and education, etc. - so it actually gives that market feedback.

AI Report #4: AutoGPT And Open-source lags behind Part 2
Anybody with 2 brain cells to connect the dots know who and why they did it.

The reason the media and government were imposing the accident narrative while the cathedral was still burning is because this could have triggered the civil war.

This is also why the report on Bataclan massacre was not released to the general public, or why MLP was prosecuted for advocating terrorism (ffs) when she published pictures of terrorism acts condemning them on Twitter. The sheeps must sleep.

The censorship is also strong here: if I recall correctly I got a HN account banned here by the censor-in-chief for voicing my opinion on the matter at the time (which as a French I think is more informed than the random poster here).

Yeah, sure. Maybe in SV / SF. The tech world is so out of touch (i work in Tech too, but at a 'normal' corp, not some srartup or FAANG) to expected these.

We also have bankruptcy protection, LLCs, trusts and homesteads to protect downside. Followed by unemployment insurance and various forms of welfare depending on the severity of the situation.

Risks are good for society, we have buffer to absorb them provided you aren’t betting the farm with BoA. In which case, we really should have tighter regulations to stop people from betting the farm with BoA.
I agree that combining UBI with the existing income taxes seems like a sensible way to implement it.

It also automatically makes it available to every legal tax resident, regardless of whether they are in the country via a work permit, a residence permit, or citizenship. Taxing somebody and not providing them with an UBI would be unfair.

We don't know the exact price paid because they are keeping it a secret (because it's outrageous and would trigger a backlash if revealed).

https://www.cnn.com/2022/10/13/politics/elon-musk-spacex-sta...

"Those entities also paid for about 30% of the internet connectivity, which SpaceX says costs $4,500 each month"

---- (Regular price is about $100 so the claimed price is more than 40x. 13x if look at the price actually being paid by others.)

" On September 8, the senior director of government sales for SpaceX wrote the Pentagon saying the costs have gotten too high, approaching $100 million. The official asked the Department of Defense to pick up Ukraine’s new request as well as ongoing service costs, totaling $124 million for the remainder of 2022.

Those costs, according to the senior defense official, would reach almost $380 million for a full year."

In driving don't we use all our intelligence? I know I'm sometimes on automatic when I'm tired but I don't see that as a good thing.
I think that high textbook prices is one of the many little signals we sent young people, for the last 3-5 decades, that we are not interested in creating a better world for them. Isn’t it interesting how little effort has been invested in mitigating the runaway cost of higher education? That we enabled college administrators to turn up the cost dial without speed bumps? No wonder why young people have become cynical: we exploit them at every turn.
They still do, infact they're are a LOT more. Just go looking.

Hold on here, you act like this is without president and yet you are the testament to the dangers of a runaway intelligence, at least if you're a non-human animal or ecosystem on the planet. I mean there is already a well established causality between human expansion and extinction of species. If you were a large predator species on Earth, the time to fight and remove humans from the playing field we before they picked up their first tool. After that point it was too late.

Now you have to answer some questions to see the potential trajectory.

1) Does intelligence begat intelligence? Can an intelligent optimize itself to become more intelligent? What are the limits of this?

2) Are humans the pinnacle of intelligence? Why would evolution optimize humans to be the most possible universal configuration for intelligence?

Now, those questions just give us the 'is super intelligences possible' depending on your answers. But this is where you/they/most people in these arguments make a mistake

>rise of a will to exterminate humans that can't be contained by us

When a virus spreads over a species and kills large portion of a species does it have a will? I mean, I guess you could say the will is programmed in, but there is no larger intelligence occuring. This is where the parable of the paperclip optimizer comes in, said optimizers goal was never to kill humans, and yet via instrumental convergence that is what happens.

Humanity is running headlong into a problem I do not know how we'll overcome. Unrestrained attempts to build super intelligence will lead from human extinction, to lessor versions where society falls apart and elects authoritarians. Otherwise we have the straight into authoritarianism option, which likely only buys us time as the authoritarians are just as apt to build super intelligence to consolidate their own power and control others.

Post slavery, a lot of states in the south wanted former slaves to continue to work for free. Tipping waiters, porters, etc became common at that time, so customers could decide if the business would pay black employees or not.

Proposed bans on tipping actually went through the courts, with some southern states ruling to ban it. Eventually, the supreme court stepped in, and ensured tipping would be legal.

Anyway, modern labor laws evolved from that mess, so it's not surprising at all that paid time off is discretionary in some states.

You will still want to use your phone, on the go or sitting waiting for someone/something, or slouched on the couch. How does VR (a closed headset isolating you from your environment) help with that? The solution to looking down all the time is looking straight ahead instead. If we suggest ideas, mine is to make phones lighter and and easier to grip so you can hold them up easily and for a longer period of time. And if you suggest a necessity… Let me suggest a standing desk as a necessity.

If UBI is paid for without printing money, then it will make people more equal even without price controls. Yes, the low end will rise a bit, the high end will fall a bit (assuming they are taxing the rich), the middle should stay the same. It just puts people in more even ground when bidding for a fixed amount of resources.

Universal healthcare would also contribute to equity, probably more effectively than UBI. We should definitely do that first.

Very sober given the costs and %age of patients who didn’t receive adjuvant chemo in the initial trial.

This writer needs to be more respectful of readers by using paragraphs instead of one long text block.

Aside from that, of course Sam wants regulations. All big tech companies are in favor of regulation because they already have an army of lawyers which small upstarts will not. Their ability to comply with lots of regulations helps keep out competitors who can't afford that.

And yes, it's impossible to regulate AI and it won't happen.
Empirical studies can be surprising.
I could take your argument about aws and apply it to GCP. That’s nothing more than familiarity.

My biggest complaint on GCP is the support. With AWS when needing support we get responses in 10m to a few hours depending on the severity of the issue. I raised a ticket with GCP about 3 months ago due to a VM vanishing. Could connect to it but not see it in their UI. Took a week to get it back with no explanation. Just magically appeared and ticket closed. Granted our bill with AWS is 25k/m while GCP is about 2k. Thankfully we don’t run production on GCP. Just use it for testing (as we do with Azure)

You can't accidentally share a private fork any easier than you could a new repo. If you try to make a private fork public in GitHub there is just a message that "For security reasons, you cannot change the visibility of a fork."

A note of caution for those unfamiliar with how IPFS works.

It's very similar to BitTorrent with how content distribution happens. Your local node will broadcast which content it has available (downloaded).

If you access a piece of content you automatically become a host for it so you still need to use a VPN if you live in a country where you can get sued.
There is a std::make_shared( constructor arguments... ) function which will do one allocation for the control block + item data. I don't think compilers will do it automatically (it has other implications over a normal std::shared_ptr) so you need to opt into it.
On the contrary, the Pi has gone from a small computer to the base of many projects. Where for many self-hosting is synonymous with the raspberry pi.

I don't necessarily agree with that, but it is a pretty great starting point. The competition has a very long way to go to be comparable. Performance is also seldom the limiting factor.
