There's a musician named Ren (@renmakesmusic) who was told for years that he had various psychiatric diseases and eventually it was discovered that he had an autoimmune disorder caused by Lyme disease. He writes songs about his experiences and how he thought his life was over.

He mentioned in a podcast that he only got a proper diagnosis because he lied to a doctor about his symptoms to get specific meds, and those meds just happened to work. Because they worked, another doctor was able to put all the info together and diagnose Lyme.
Why would monogamous relationships be better for society from your perspective? Shouldn't you be arguing that marriage is holding our "new family unit" generation back?
The natives in Canada probably didn't do much better in Canada between the war of 1812 and the Riel Rebellion, but it certainly helps now. British law said we couldn't settle the land without a treaty with the natives. This didn't really stop settlement but it does mean that some tribes have forced significant monetary settlements from the Canadian government. Some money for broken treaties, and some for settling without a treaty.

Just report the issue honestly, don’t try to obfuscate, and don’t send a message to a security@ with something like “I found a security issue” with no details of any kind.

If it’s not a security@ and not specifically listed as a security point of contact it’s fair to ask if it’s the right location for a potentially security-sensitive issue and whether there’s a better one.
Sounds like you don't want your wife's mom driving with you and the rest of the family in the car. Sounds like she quite possibly should not be driving at all. That must have been pretty scary.
I work for a nonprofit that spends quite a bit on AWS. You could donate them and get a tax credit.
If she told you that, and it was true, how is it disrespectful? What would would do in that situation? Demand "respect" and decree you must be her number one?
I’m not sure how this will be handled, considering there is only one kind of NSFW tag, but the reddit admins said that only sexually explicit content will be inaccessible from the API.

Around that time I went down the rabbit hole of "what if I wanted to write a filesystem for Windows NT?" It turns out that, aside from network redirectors, Microsoft didn't think this was something people ought to do very often. The people at Atria (which got bought by Rational) who were working on ClearCase were pioneers, and they bought a source license from Microsoft to be able to do it. The result was that there was a lot of information from them on a mailing list about how do implement a filesystem. However, it was mostly incomprehensible to me, because kernel programming on NT is quite different from what one would expect coming from other backgrounds, including Windows 95, OS/2, and Linux.
i always get a kick out of how HN people talk about their "side projects" rather than their "hobbies". just let your hobby be a hobby instead of turning it into a pseudojob.
I think it’s the monthly subscription for a offline product is what makes the devs to loose their interest, and I get it.

I don’t own the product when subscribing, I am only leasing it for as long as I pay. I don’t like that, I prefer to own my products.

Everything is slowly turning into a subscription, sure this is only 30$ a month, but if all my products were subscription based, I would go bankrupt.
It is an interesting idea. Transcription isn't new, but the extraction of a list of actions and bullet points is intriguing. It would need to be better than what a sales guy could get by copy/pasting a transcription into ChatGPT, not because sales guys are going to start doing that, but because Salesforce could whip out a wrapper for such things fairly quickly easily, so you need to be wary of having a strategy that is easily repeatable by a big player who already has a vast amount of sales people on their platform.
8GB was a little lot fifteen years ago. I don't think 1TB ram will be common in five years, except maybe for IA model training.
I think here you're conflating phsyical security (am I safe in my home) with privacy (am I unobserved).

Yes, I would argue that controlling information access to property should not be considered a fundamental right - in that it's practically un-enforceable for privacy purposes already; I do think there should be an expectation that you can walk around your property without fear of bumping into some stranger though.

Clearly it's not as cut and dried as that, as physical security is required to ensure that you can have information privacy too, but I think it's important to maintain the distinction.
They're okay. This isn't the place for a full review of their offerings (especially considering everyone's mixed feelings on Oracle), but I'm confident that it's better than most 1core/$5 deals you'll find elsewhere.

> Are they any good?

Yep, free tier allows you to spec up to 24gb of RAM without paying, which is cool. The bottleneck is really the disk speed, but that's not an issue with mmaped models. There's enough cached memory that it loads instantly, so it's good-ish for this use case.

> Is the free-tier time limited?

No, but there are a lot of strings attached:

- The cores are vCPUs, not dedi (duh)

- You can't create new instances when demand is high (unless you add a credit card)

- Technically Oracle reserves the right to shut down the instance if demand gets really high (although I haven't heard any stories about this personally)

Proceed with caution. It's still a great place to start before you shell out $1/hr for dedi GPU rackspace.
Any loan getting repaid technically "destroys" the money unless new replacement lending is made. It's because the money was created when it was lent out, i.e. banks are allowed to lend money they don't have up to a point (called the reserve ratio). When it's repaid the interest is kept by the bank but the principal goes back to their balance sheet as money they can lend.

For central banks this is taken to the next level as I'm not sure they do anything with interest.
What people don't realize is everything has or is made with pfas on some part of the supply chain.

You seem to be thinking that movie studios can only operate as singular entities and in system-legible ways.

What I'm imagining: someone who is mildly connected to execs at various studios/labels starting a company that participates in private trackers, and then passes information about infringement/infringers onto studios. They would only need one or two studios as clients to prove the concept and (informally) prove the idea to the rest of the industry. Their agreement with client studios includes an agreement that they won't be sued for infringement that occurs in the process of finding (other) infringers, doesn't include any license to works, and certainly doesn't include the ability to sublicense!

Sure it's possible that when this eventually goes to court, a chain of "activist" judges might go against the status quo of a company taking steps to protect its "property" - discard corporate veils, call the investigator's uploading an implicit sublicense, etc. It's just not likely, and the failure mode still would be individual licenses for the specific downloaders that were in the swarm at the time, not blanket rights to redistribute indefinitely.
You are right, but I think that everyone understands that today it's nothing more than a formality which feeds those intermediate banks at the expense of taxpayers.
OP implied that Eliezer and Noam are one of the ugliest people alive. I'm very surprised so many people defend that comment and pretend it is relevant and discussion worthy.

Keep in mind that Not every car brand has the executional prowess of Tesla. As the others have mentioned I’ve never experienced phantom braking on my Subaru while driving.

It hasn’t even done the object detected warning beeping when driving on actual roads, which I assume happens prior to the braking. The times I’ve had that warning are parking head on against walls and approach fast, and on one particular 15 mph off ramp that curved sharply such that one drove directly at a sign before turning sharply. It was understandable that it would alert there. No braking.

Assisted Lane keeping is another story, not a fan. Does not account for a ton of things such as the car or truck in the next lane is almost over the line.
It's just the "click to favorite this repo" mechanism. It lets people track repos more easily ("see updates to started repos") and it's become a social gaming mechanism ("the most-starred deep learning cryptocurrency Blockchain mumble jumble on GitHub!")
I agree with you and I think this is by far the biggest risk to SvelteKit as a project. The biggest problem is that it’s very prescriptive for some things and then has no opinion (or even guidance) on other areas.

Like forms, the docs say use Form Actions, but it’s fundamentally at odds with being able to build a standalone component that can submit data to the server and be used anywhere. The workarounds are silly.

And then there’s how they treat navigation. Always use anchors! For progressive enhancement and preloading pages. Except you end up having to use their ‘goto’ method to do routing in a lot of circumstances. It’s very muddled and full of mixed messages.
My wife is my best friend (and hopefully, the reverse is true). That's the only way I can think of marriage working in the long run anyway.
Why would you want anything waxed or otherwise “gliding” for floss? I don’t get it. The point is for friction to remove the tartar.
I agree with your point and would add that it's been this way for decades prior to AI. Many are focusing on the fact that AI is recently making it easier, cheaper and faster to do hard-to-detect, high-fidelity photo/video manipulation. However, another equally important change from AI is widespread awareness that such manipulation is not only possible but relatively easy.

Previously, such manipulation was possible via manual methods requiring time and unique skill which limited it to highly motivated, organized adversaries and it was much more useful because most people weren't aware it could be done. IMHO, all the AI examples we're now seeing bemoaned in the media as signs of future manipulation are, in fact, rapidly diminishing the effective value of such deception.

> Everything on the same LAN should generally be treated as "compromised/not compromised" together. There's rarely just a compromise of one machine in the same way there's never just one cockroach.

That might've been true 10 years ago and still is in some case but I wouldn't assume that now, far more things run over encryption for example, or have firewall
They referred to them as Indians because Christopher Columbus was a lousy navigator.
If you're talking about Clearcase snapshot views, I agree they were garbage. And IIRC merging in a Clearcase snapshot view was also a hot mess. Snapshot views was a bold-on that we were forced to use in later years. TBH the migration to other VCSs was already underway by then in our company but snapshot views was the last straw for us.

On the other hand Clearcase dynamic views were pretty awesome. You just needed to edit your view config spec and the view FS would render the right file versions immediately. No checkout required. There was even view extended naming to let you open multiple versions of the same file directly from any editor.

As for merging Clearcase set the gold standard for three-way automatic merges and conflict resolution that wasn't matched until git came along. It's still superior in one important way - Clearcase had versioned directories as well as files so you could commit a file move and someone else's changes to the same "element" in the original file location would be merged correctly after the move. No heuristics, just versioned elements with versioned directory tree entries. Backporting fixes was a breeze, even with a significant refactor in between.

Git more or less wins hands down today because it is fast, distributed and works on change sets. But something with git's storage model, a multi version file system and Clearcase's directory versioning would be an awesome VCS.

I wish we would put this level of urgency and worry into addressing human suffering in the world instead of thinking of self-serving self-aggrandizing fantastic sci-fi futures that are just distracting us from the current reality of society

A lot more people suffer and will suffer everyday from inequality, health issues and loneliness than anything that any AI will do to them in their lives
What is the Russian theory on Apple hacking their phones?
Eh, not a big fan of QR codes with images in the middle. One of my favorite things about QR codes is their extremely generous error correction capability, which is greatly reduced when you instead use that valuable space for a logo. It looks nice, but makes the code less scannable than an equivalently sized one with larger pixels or more error correction bytes.
It should be obvious by now that we should ban all chemicals that don't have extensive, long term 3rd party safety testing/history.

> Is it unfortunate that Meta and Google track you across the internet? Sure, but it's ultimately not necessary for your participation in society

I'm honestly astonished by this claim.

For many the products provided by Meta and Google--Facebook, Whatsapp, Gmail, WeChat, etc--are deeply important to their lives. These tools are the way people connect and communicate with friends and families, conduct business, and in general navigate the world.

It is becoming damn near impossible to avoid their prying eyes. And I know. I've tried.

So, I'm sorry, no, I completely disagree with your claim.

Is "Big Government" surveillance a concern? Yes. Absolutely.

But private company surveillance is every bit as concerning, every bit as difficult to avoid, and far harder to control (after all, I don't get to elect who runs Facebook).
Re Google, possibly through this, as per https://support.google.com/googleplay/android-developer/answ... ?

"We don’t allow apps that interfere with […] or access in an unauthorized manner […] other […] servers, networks, application programming interfaces (APIs), or services, including but not limited to other apps on the device, any Google service, or an authorized carrier’s network."

"Examples of common violations: […] Apps that access or use a service or API in a manner that violates its terms of service."
I would argue that access and utilization of the internet is needed to participate in society. That is to say if we define "participate in society" beyond being alive and merely existing in close proximity to your neighbours, the internet is inescapable if you want to pay bills, stay up to date what is happening in your neighbourhood or have any chance of a decent living (e.g. a paying job).
How can it be deployed on a Huggingface Space or Colab notebook?
So far I haven’t read anything that convinces me of this catastrophic risk from AI.

All I’ve read is science fiction from man-boys speculating on some sort of fanciful future that isn’t even close to current reality.

People like Sam Altman catastrophizing to politicians and panicking people about “Tom Swift and the electric brain” is frankly doing the industry a disservice and embarrassing.

AI ending humanity is on the same likelihood level as man-boy Musks dreams of colonizing Mars…. I know people love the fantasy, but it will never be real.

People should just stop with this made up stuff or the politicians will believe you and their stupidity is the real risk.

Climate change is a million times more real existential threat.
In Germany it is. Nobody else but government offices (federal, state, county, municipal) is allowed to use them. E.g. employers have access to them, but still they are legally required to only use an internal employee number for their internal operations.

Creating one that is shared between private instances would require explicit consent by the citizen to every company to use it according to GDPR. Well, of course Schufa requires consent too, which is not truly a decision a citizen can make. If you don't agree I don't think you'd find any bank opening an account. But I do hope there will such a public outcry if anybody tried to start such surveillance again today, it would fail in the beginning. Like Google Streetview did.

I am not convinced the Schufa score data quality is always very good. (Not living there I cannot request my own one, just a feeling.)
I think flow state is triggered by focus, bodily control, and a deep knowledge of what is required to achieve a task.

For instance, "flow toys" in the music scene are exactly for this. They require precision movements and focus to look how they're supposed to. You're constantly tuning minute parameters to achieve the task, sometimes making your body compromise in ways it hasn't before.

In shooting I'm almost always able to achieve a flow state by controlling my breathing. The way I was taught to shoot was breathing in rhythm, combined with maintaining sight picture and sight alignment I can almost "feel" it activate. This much more prevalent when I've done moving target drills. The world around me melts away, though I can hear interrupts as distant but interpretable sounds. Physical objects in front of me feel more predictable and slower. My senses are definitely heightened to a degree, and my olfactory senses especially are noticeably different in their operation.

Gaming can definitely trigger flow state. I have similar breathing rituals and focus when I play CS. Knowing the corners of a map, how to gode or stalk opponents, and the probability of another teams position has put me in flows where I'm merely balancing prioritization instead of trying to point and click.

That is why punitive damages are typically 10x. (S/P+C is roughly 10).

In this case, it’d be a 10B fine, which is 33% of their current market cap. That seems about right. They make other stuff, so letting the company survive (but barely) probably maximizes societal utility moving forward.

That's true but the treasury will price their interest rates to get buyers. If it goes high enough buyers will emerge unless there is nobody with faith in the government paying it back.
How is it meaningfully different with respect to this question?

If I go to a museum and look at a bunch of modern paintings, then go home and paint something new but “in the style of”, this is well-established as within my rights, regardless of how any of the painters whose work I studied and was inspired by might feel.

If I take a notebook and write down some notes about the themes and stylistic attributes of what I see, then go home and paint something in the same style, that too is fine - right? Or would you argue the notes I took are a copyright violation? Or the works I made using those notes?

Now let’s say I automate the process of recording those notes. Does that change the fundamentals of what is happening, with respect to copyright?

Personally, I don’t think so.
marriage when women were property and marriage now that women are being treated as humans (though rights are being taken away) are two different things.

Any data collected by big tech can be accessed by governments and governments will manage that data using big tech products so there's not that much distinction between the two.
1. Bank Deposits have not kept up with MMFs. I transferred about 85% of all my cash into a money-market fund to keep up with the Fed Benchmark rate (currently 5%).

2. Fed has been purposefully destroying money through its policy decisions. This is on purpose, because the Fed's only tool to combat inflation is to destroy money (either directly, or indirectly).

3. In regards to #2: Mortgage rates are higher, car loans are higher, etc. etc. People in practice have relatively lost a lot of money because of this and have to tap their savings. Note that this FDIC document has noted that somehow, we have less delinquencies right now. So it seems like Americans are remaining responsible and paying off their debts.

---------

Frankly, I'm surprised that "only" ~$500B of deposits have fled classic banks. People really should be moving their money to MMFs to take advantage of these much higher interest rates and the current Fed repo rate.

It's an interesting structure! A couple of thoughts popped out as I read your articles of incorporation.

(1) Instead of saying a representative can't represent more than 10-100 people, have you considered making it a percentage of the membership? Making it a hard number seems potentially inflexible as the organization grows.

(2) Making it a requirement that the CEO be a part of the organization for 4 years before running would imply that either the first CEO didn't have to meet such criteria, or that there is no CEO for the first 4 years.

Very curious to follow your journey!
I understand why people are upset about this but this is probably among the least intrusive gambling ads that we have to deal with. What if the only legal form of gambling advertising was urls on the back of license plates that states auctioned off? In principle, it would be terrible, but in practice, it'd be a great improvement.
