> In the meantime, you can and should use Rust. In spite of any shortcomings it's still the best language that has come so far in terms of enforcing memory access safety and overall correctness

1. I don't think programming languages can "enforce correctness". (Although I will say that my general experience is that functional languages, not Rust, tend make it more difficult to get things trivially incorrect.)

2. I'm not sure that's a good enough reason to use Rust. I mean, sure, Rust is usable, people do things with it, but - my biased experience is that at some point you just go C++ for some reason, and stay there.
A good portion of them must have been doing it for a long time, last time we were in Paris (2005) there was no shortage of owned apartments for rent because the usual occupants were somewhere else for the summer.

I don't think people were as likely to be buying properties for the explicit purpose of short-term renting (i.e. never intending to actually live there) back then, but I have no actual facts to back that up :P
The judge is using bingChat to write the decisions anyway.
Circular logic.

If it's better why isn't that how these sites are run? Wikipedia for example is an anomaly.
Show HN: Is ChatGPT Worth It?
Hey HN, I'm sure many of you already have ChatGPT Plus subscriptions and are using it. But I have found it surprisingly difficult to convince my coworkers and manager that ChatGPT Plus is worth the $20/mo.

So I put together this little app that does some really simple napkin math. It certainly doesn't take every gain/loss into account, but it's just supposed to be a ballpark estimate.
> This scenario seems functionally similar to a FaceTime call or other form of video communication.

But in a video call, the "distance" the video causes is something that you put up with in exchange for a greater benefit. If I'm talking with someone that has a screen in front of their face showing me their face, that's distance that provides no benefit, so it's a loss without gain. It makes the person seem sketchy.
As someone who's gay and obviously appreciates the male form, your statement is not true at all.
The girls, the skaters and bikers. The others just use snapchat most of the time. One of my students was complaining about battery life on his new iPhone. I told him that snapchat just uses a lot of battery because all of the shenanigans. He didnt believe me till I showed him the battery function of the phone where you can see what app uses how much percentage. :)
Interesting issue with the U2F account lockout potential - due to the anti-phishing protection and the domain name changing I assume?
I can say in my personal experience that fresh whole milk in Europe and the US tastes the same.

I really don't know why the original poster claimed otherwise. Maybe it's just an urban legend in parts of Europe or something.
There are already real bias actualized on the name and gender of the applicant at the very first stage of company hiring. Late stage investigations credit reports, public court records, online social profiles can happen but rarely do. Companies focus on referrals and confirmed job history. I can't imagine more invasive investigations into health history. Secondly why are companies paying more for healthcare given a employee sickness. The point of insurance is that it normalize cost across the entire pool of people and must be regulated to not be prejudice of pre existing conditions.
A lot of cogent analysis here, but I’m surprised the author doesn’t seem to know about the economic and political forms of warfare which the US has been pursuing as a cheaper alternative to conventional war.

To use Venezuela as an example, the author says no one has tried to invade it (which is actually not even true, see below) but also the US has been imposing crippling sanctions for over 15 years in an attempt to punish the people and weaken the government.

Moreover there was a US supported coup attempt in 2002 and one basically cooked up entirely by the US in 2020 (Operation Gideon). This was a plan to actually invade the country by boat with a small force to try to take control of the government.

This is part of a pattern of behavior for the US in the 20th century. The book Washington Bullets does a good job cataloguing the various interventions of this form.

I don't think they were saying you can't do it in Python, just offering what is arguably a nicer syntax, but of course that is subjective. The anonymous function version lets you write things in the order they happen and also "binds" the operations together, ie, someone can't accidentally add a completely unrelated line between the `def` and the `with`. It ultimately doesn't matter, people just get used to the conventions of their preferred languages and we all trudge on.
Sure, it will have that locked in experience to start and lack the computing power to compete with a traditional machine. It doesn't mean it has to remain that way. They've tried to push the iPadOS further in that direction for years.

Yes, I agree entirely. If it's been coerced in any way, or if any aspect is not fully disclosed in a way that I can understand, then it is not "informed consent".

Still, reading, but I'm looking forward to this. I've read a lot of the author's other posts about things like military organization in LOTR and theory of history in Crusader Kings. I typically find the tone to be careful and nuanced but also engaging. I am likely unqualified to really determine the merits of a given argument in this article, but I feel confident I can trust the author to present them fairly.
Sure, that's fine.

The UK govt has proven that when it tries, it can do digital services _pretty well_.

The concern here isn't the government using the data for the betterment of society, it's the government handing over health data wholesale to companies whose sole purpose is to generate profit by exploiting data.

Ask for consent. If I say you can't use my medical data, then you can't use it.

If I say you can, then you can.

It's really very simple.
I'd wind the watch and adjust it in the morning, and will be 2-5 minutes late in the evening. But at times I would adjust it during the day while watching time close to another, more reliable time source (like a public clock in a train station, for instance, or TV news in a shop window). After all it only takes a second to adjust: pull the crown, turn it a tiny bit, and push it back in :)
How would that work, unless the AI advises so many people at a time it can suddenly decide to tell everyone to just stop going to court.
I mean, I’d be for this but I was trying to meet OP half way. CONSENT. That’s all that we are asking for.
That's fair, but I don't think it sucks, personally. Just because it exists doesn't mean it necessarily has the universal value to be archived. Others will disagree, and perhaps most will, but the way I see it is that there's better things to spend time and effort on than backing up Reddit. As an alternative, I think it would be better for there to be good tools for individual Reddit communities to back up their own content, which would also allow them the control to archive what's valuable and leave behind the flotsam. Perhaps such a tool would even support migrating to other forum systems. If no one would be willing to use such a tool, then that would essentially prove my point that most Reddit content isn't highly worthy of being archived.

Like I tried to suggest in my first sentence in my original comment, I don't necessarily think there's no argument for or no value at all in archiving Reddit. It just doesn't seem like the best choice, especially for an organization like the Archive Team who could be spending that time and effort to fight for their own existence, even if it's only costing them $20 in total. The effort would be better left to communities and individuals to decide what should be archived and how to host it.
You are probably like me. To me there is no medical information of any kind that could embarrass or "stigmatize" me or anyone else.

But the vast majority of people are paralyzed by fear that someone might find out they have hemorrhoids.

Others live in a delusional state of paranoia where "duh gubmint" will use the info against them not realizing that any entity, governmental or otherwise, willing to do so will just ignore privacy laws anyways.

If the IOCTLs are different, then you compile a different binary. What's the big deal? Rust is a compiled language after all.

That's cool, but let's be honest here, Skyrim SE runs perfectly fine on recent computers. It's Morrowind that doesn't, which is why OpenMW is necessary.
I wonder if online discussions will shift to Discord channels. Sure it’s another centralised “forum” but it does seem like a credible alternative - a lot of discussion already seem to happens there.
Only you can say why you would, so I can't help you there.

But, for me, for example: to GSD around the house while one needs to be in a Zoom, so that menial chores aren't waiting for me when I'm off work. Even Airpods let me do that somewhat now, but at the expense of missing slides or what's being shared on someone's desktop.

Mapping “Patient b15-2gty” back to your real name has been trivial for decades.

My first job involved a one hour lecture about how people had repeatedly accidentally deanonymized and accidentally leaked data at other institutions, leading to divorces and worse.

We had somewhere between 10 to 100 bytes of entropy on each patient, and it would have been enough for any of their acquaintances to map back to real names and also severely violate privacy.
You could in theory by standardizing a mapping from S-Expressions to Rust tokens of course, but no it's not a goal for the project.
Idk, I think it's extremely statistically rare coincidence for nominative typing to be a better default than structural. In other words, it's much more useful (by default) to have some function work on more types than be a little bit more type-safe for the exactly the type author had in mind when writing it. In my opinion, type-safety has diminishing returns and the most of its usefulness lies in trivial things, like passing a string instead of some object or array just as a typo, or writing a wrong field name when mapping one object to another, but nominative typing lies way beyond my imaginary line marking the zone when types become more of annoyance than help.
Arguably, a model created by training on a corpus of data is a derived work of that corpus.

Let's say I take a collection of images and use a program to compress them. When decompressed, the images are close to, but not exactly the same as the originals. Despite being in a different format, and despite not being exactly the same as the originals, the copyright to the compressed images is still held by whoever previously held it.

If I take the collection of images from earlier and train a diffusion model based on it, I'm essentially just compressing it a different way. With the right prompt, you can get out something very similar to what you put in.
If I went into "my" office I probably wouldn't recognize a single person at this point and I'm not sure there's anyone who I regularly work with who is assigned to that office, much less goes in.

>No, this is FAANG, every building is open office layout, it'd be rude & disrespectful to your colleagues around who are busy coding.

Individual offices have not been the norm for everyone at large companies maybe ever? Cubicles are "better" but not that much better. (Source: I had one for years--both full-height and then shorter.) And the fact is that lots used to spend a lot more time on the phone than they generally need to today given other communication channels. When I've been in an office I absolutely make calls from my desk and everyone else does too.
A couple of possible reasons:

1) It takes time for countries to break old habits when it comes to war.

2) Probably most important for WW1, the personal wealth of monarchs is in the lands they own, not the industries their tax-payers own. And this source of wealth, prestige, and vertical mobility is also of immediate importance for the upper classes in a monarchy. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horatio_Nelson%2C_1st_Viscount...

Very few of these monarchies exist now. Many of them fell in the aftermath of WW1, and some of the big remaining ones fell in the aftermath of WW2. A positive of this is that now the remaining monarchies see war not as a means to extending their wealth, but, if on the losing side, as a means to ending them entirely. This didn't use to be the case, as previously losing monarchies might be given the opportunity to fold into the conquering monarchy as a subordinate power or noble.

I wonder if they ask those families - would you rather we rent a room for you at $256/day, or just give you the $256/day instead? What would the families say?
> It wasn’t like ash and debris was flying through the air.

Isn’t that exactly what smoke is? It’s worse than visibly large particles, the small particles are more likely to get inside your lungs and do damage.

> Not for a day, no.

You might want to familiarize yourself with the evidence-based WHO air quality guidelines which sets standards based on short-term 8 & 24 hour exposure periods, and separate long-term recommendations for annual exposure. https://www.who.int/news-room/feature-stories/detail/what-ar...

The recommended short-term 24 hour exposure levels are far below what NYC saw (as well as what many cities in the west have had for months at a time over the last ten years. These numbers are published based on the WHO’s ability to demonstrate that adverse health effects appear in the population when exposure exceeds these levels. The recommendations were lowered recently compared to their 2005 numbers because the studies and data and evidence have grown in the last 20 years and it shows that even mild levels of exposure result in more doctor’s visits, more lung conditions, more athsma, more damage and more risk.
Well they recently unbanned my youtube/youtube music account too after writing to them a second time. They said it doesnt violate their policies after saying it did the last time. Are there any grounds to sue them for this?
No, I don't want to. This is about giving people a choice, not about forcing them into it.
I used the number since it's 1% of Reddit's alleged evaluation.
Except that the Rivians are ungodly expensive and incredibly heavy. They might look more like a regular truck, but they’re incredibly impractical.
Keeping a history is far more work (and cost!) than maintaining a deleted flag. I'm inclined to believe they don't keep a history.

Ya, the language itself is not very well documented. But it's mostly Common LISP like, though a LISP-1 like Scheme, which is the biggest deviation from Common LISP.

You can take a look at core.lisp and html.lisp in the lisp/ directory, as well as the test cases for example code in test/.
merci good fellow :)

That's a individual vs. group question.

For a society to function well, there should always be a balance between indivual interests and group interests.
For an employer the great advantage of remote work is the ability to hire people who live anywhere in the world (or at least anywhere in your country). But, when you're not hiring, that no longer matters.
If there are LLMs that trained on all avail /u/ comments - then maybe they will live into perpetuity in the AI HiveMind?

And - I want to delete my 17 years worth of comments, but dont have access to my account any longer - so I guess reddit gets to squat on them.

You know what would be REALLY interesting:

telling an AI to crawl all your comment history and build a compendium of your reddit experience year by year, or sub by sub...

and give you stats and graphs of things...

I know there are some sites that will eval your comments and tell your your writing level/comprehension...
Oh... either that was added in an edit or I had a brain blip that caused me to skip the bulleted list. Apologies.
IMHO he is overlooking the most obvious answer to why the Russian military is performing poorly. The one that is backed by historical evidence: widespread corruption rotted the organization from the core. Putin is running his country like the world's largest petro-Mafia, with poor internal controls that allowed for a widespread looting of the state's assets. So when it is time for the institutions to do their job they find that they are a shell of their former self.

India also has major corruption problems that bode ill for it in future conflicts. China is a bit harder to read, sometimes it seems like the party is clamping down on it, but there is always the low level stories of how to deal with a system that is corrupt from top to bottom.

What I don't understand is why any of you think that any of this shit matters.

At all.

What is a couple of days of a few subs shutting down going to matter in the grand scheme of things? This is why unions aren't run by hobbyists.
Yep. I'm all for a better version of informed consent.

"Can we provide your medical details in full to the following organisations?"
"Can we provide an anonymised version of your record to them?"

Yes. No.

Abide by those wishes. It's pretty simple.

Unfortunately big tech companies see the fines for handling data poorly as a cost of doing business, and not the punishment it was designed as. Until that changes, the status quo can't change.
Everybody wants privacy. But they also want treatment for whatever ails them. These things don't have to be mutually exclusive.

Lack of information is a big challenge for doctors. When I say challenge, I mean people are dying needlessly because of their doctors don't have access to critical information and this leads to bad decision making.

Here in Germany doctors are completely in the dark. Even basic information like who I am or where people live isn't being shared. Because privacy. Every doctor you talk to first needs to take down all your basic details. Address, date of birth, etc. Every medical appointment is ground hog day. They know nothing of you, your personal details, or your medical history. And German GPs don't do a lot themselves. You get referred for even the most basic things but without them sharing information. So, all the obvious things happen on a daily basis. People receiving the wrong medications. Doctors not acting because they are unaware of the history of the person in front of them. Or wasting time on diagnosing things that have already been diagnosed. Or mis-diagnosing those things.

That's the consequence of bad data.

The standard German sentiment against any digital is "I don't like this". But the consequences are that they have to suffer bad health care, a stupendously inefficient system that they pay for through really expensive insurance every month, and preventable deaths because essential data isn't being exchanged to those who need it.

And their privacy sucks anyway, because IT security is about what you expect from a sector running on ancient hardware and software. IT incompetence/ignorance is the norm. Quite a contrast with other countries I've lived in.

As long as the patients those records are about are in full control over their disclosure and use.

I had a number of volumes of really nice looking books on the shelf growing up. There was the encyclopedia set which was ok, but also collections of stories, museum collections, city reference books. They're great because you can grab anything and usually find interesting well written good quality content. Even the worst of them, and there are bad books, are at least well written.

Anyway, I recently found out the volumes were selected by my architect uncle to coordinate with the built-in bookshelves. They were just intended as a visual prop, but I've taken a few of the classics and museum sets with me and still enjoy flipping through.
Agreed that, on that logic, I hope this works. I haven't recovered from the early claims that somehow kids were not getting covid, such that I have a hard time trusting what we "know" about the spread of some of these.
Oh, so it's just a type alias for readability. Then it makes sense.
I had a manager once ask us to give 100% during a production incident, including over the weekend since we'd worked into Friday. On Saturday I started to realize the extend of the damage and told everyone to pace themselves--I took Sunday off. The problem was extensive data inconsistencies with duplicates requiring application of heuristics yet to be developed in an area our team didn't have expertise. It took months to complete. The last thing you want is for tired burnt-out folks making sweeping production data changes in a hurry. The manager's idea of helping was repeatedly asking in the dev chat channel, how's it going? When will it be done?
