I've had same thought about a lot of Buddhist writings. One main point is to not need the writings. Understanding is beyond the writings itself. It seems like maybe a lot of the writings, are people working out their own path, their own understanding, and then wanting to share, even if the main point is not needing the writing to begin with.

Same thing in philosophy. Very loos interpretation, Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus by Wittgenstein. You need language to communicate, but it is flawed and can't really communicate what you want, but language is all you have, but when the other person does eventually understand, they realize how incomplete the language description was.

Yes, and it excels at it. From your description it does look like it
> The promise of VR is to unlock a world free of the constraints of physics. Where physical distance prevents certain styles of communication and interaction - where physical real estate is finite and therefore rivalrous, etc. There are many things that VR, in principle, could solve...

See. You just did the exact same thing that Op is talking about. You didn't describe a single actual use case. You just talked about unlocking things or solving problems. You didn't describe any actual problems or any actual things. op's point is that enabling technologies are useless without problems that require the enablement to be solved. And no one is actually demonstrating that any of those exist.
Yes, absolutely. Sam Altman has come out and said it, although specifically he said that social media wasn't of any particular importance for training data.

This can also be seen when you mention davidjl, who was a user super into r/counting. There was a thread of that yesterday I believe.

OpenAI thanks you for your Reddit contributions.
Google made it too easy to make in app purchase.

If you don't pay attention, when purchasing an app or anything else the first time, you enable by default the "fast workflow" that doesn't require authorization for the following purchase.

It's also hard to find the setting again in the play store app.

All is made to reduce friction when purchasing... Which doesn't align with the goal of most parents.
> I wish nuclear proponents would recognize the inherent challenges of the problem

Nuclear proponents have been wailing at the top of their lungs about this since the time I could start reading newspapers.

The largest problem is the pipeline of industry needed to build these things. That was completely destroyed by the anti-nuclear zealot crowd, knowingly so and with purpose. They absolutely knew (and I read articles on it) that if they froze most new construction for just a couple decades, the entire industry would vaporize due to lack of of talent pool and experience.

Everyone was correct.

That means if you want nuclear now, we better start on those giant 15 year construction projects or we'll never get better. It will take a generation - at least - to restart an industry from pretty much zero. Hundreds of thousands of current 2 year olds need to be trained before we can even hope to make a dent in this problem 20 years later.
I agree. I don’t think hallucination is the right term. When humans hallucinate, they’re seeing false inputs. When ChatGTP “hallucinates”, it’s giving false outputs. Maybe a better analogy would be a savant with dementia - it knows a lot of things and sounds coherent but it’s inconsistent in keeping track of state and highly variable in the accuracy of its output

Aren’t those kind of environmental complaints usually by hostile competitors? For instance - Blue Origin hires a person/lawyer to set up an environmental impact complaint against SpaceX just to tie up resources?

I thought these kinds of things were generally all corporate shenanigans and bullshit? Maybe i have too much tin foil on.
We don't have proven "far cheaper" alternatives. It is irresponsible to advocate for a fully solar/wind grid if we don't have a single working large scale example that is able to sustain, let's say, a city with 5M people 24/7, all-season (examples including hydro and geothermal don't count as many places can't depend on these).

Don't get me wrong, I love solar and wind and I highly encourage continued investment and buildup so we need less of other forms of energy. However, ignoring nuclear is the same, in practice, as supporting a hybrid fossil/renewables future. If you are fine betting on technological developments such as megascale batteries or other energy storage approaches, you should also be fine betting on the less impressive, incremental improvements needed for reducing nuclear plant costs.

The future will involve many different energy sources, and nuclear fission has to be one of them until we discover a new major energy source (hopefully fusion).

I suspect what your describing is less the cause but a symptom of the real case.

In my experience(i have worked from branch offices most my career) the differentiating factor is literacy, ie how comfortable/confident are the organization with recorded text vs private spoken word and the more the organization writes the more effective the remote staff will be.

And one of the side effect of a written culture is that a lot of the informal conventions/conversations become formal structure so the same level of top down planning can look very differently based on weather the culture for disseminating it is literate or oral.
I agree, this will mostly go nowhere. Sure when somebody will prepare you DeviceScript environment for *your* board, then you are good to go. But in 99% of cases, you will get hardware in front of you which almost certainly is not supported by DeviceScript. And now without intimate knowledge of C, how are you going to expose interfaces of that particular hardware, so you can work with those interfaces in DeviceScript? Well you won't, you need to know C first.

Same problem for MicroPython. Same problem for LUA, same problem for any scripting language running on constrained MCU.
If the alternative to renting that apartment is getting fired then it is rational for the employee to rent, even if it was irrational for Google to require RTO in the first place.
Agreed, was also disappointed. Apart from a poorly constructed shallow story, the black and white parts were quite off-putting. The whole point of this film was playful van Gogh-esque colors and his signature strokes. Whose idea was it to have oil on canvas in black and white, for whatever purpose (flashbacks - whatever)? Incredibly bad idea.

As a sponsor of Formula 3, I got to visit a Formula 3 / Formula 2 team yesterday and have to say, the racing sport it just insane. The amount of knowledge and effort and money it takes for a team to operate, just below break-even, it's on another level. I think racing must have some of the most passionate people in any industry.

Also a fun fact on one of the businessmodels in racing: the team operates like a specialized car-rental service. They do everything, except drive. The driver has to rent the seat for a season, this is where the team makes money.

Then there's 2 or 3 drivers. Of these, one is talented, the others are there for their funds.
In an office. Maybe it's just me but an office environment would be different than a university environment. It's similar yes but not the same. There are more consequences for your actions in an office plus you are getting paid. Offices would have a wide range of ages compared to a University.

Reddit can't force the moderators to return early. Letting it run with no moderation for 48 hours is far more damaging than a temporary interruption.

I think instead of going dark they should just leave their subreddits un-moderated. The amount of junk content that would fill the site might be enough for advertisers to pull money, which is ultimately what this is about.

Going dark is the equivalent of thoughts and prayers after a mass shooting.

Great looking site. Are all podcast summarizes only from youtube videos or are you going to expand this to actual podcasts (apple/spotify) as well?

Are you using bard to summarize the Youtube videos and then just pasting it in or do you have specific instructions?

I find myself having an ever growing "to-listen" list of podcasts and would love to just summarize them myself so I can consume more content quicker.
> While the girl said she didn't understand much about money or where it came from, she knew to delete chat records and payment transactions to hide evidence of her spending from her parents.

I do see this as a complete parenting failure. Given she had such access that she can not only spend $64k, but also spend without daily / weekly / monthly limits, and also have access to chat logs (on her parents' phone ig?) and somehow was able to delete transactions (???) -- makes all that kind of the fault of the parents.

Locking down a phone is not hard, even for mostly tech-illiterate people. It's a feature built into e.g. iPhones. This includes the parents having to manually authorize payments, app installations, and so on. This is a feature that has existed for a long time.

Further, did the parents not notice her daughter looking at her phone so much? According to the article:

> a teacher called to say she thought the girl might be addicted to mobile games after noticing how much time the 13-year-old spent on her phone

Maybe these parents are just busy, or maybe this is the lesson they needed to learn that a phone isnt a replacement parent. But it's also likely that they're raising an "ipad kid", where the phone & games are used to shut the child up so the parents dont have to put in any effort.

A gentle reminder that the whole history is here for show. This is very vulnerable — you can see the times I was in a rush, or when I took my time. You’ll find my mistakes. Either way, all I ask is please be kind. I know there are 50 things I could have done better, but this is a product of the reality at the time — a balance between something that works and something that was cost effective for Christian.
From your link:

> More specifically, I was nominated by “Rust Project Leadership” (to be exact with the wording) to give a keynote

That wording is misleading. If what this “Rust Project Leadership” committee says doesn't stick but can be overridden by someone (or someones) else, then they're not actually leading anything; the overrider is.

Have these people realised yet that they're just a façade?

> In-person is much better if you don't know what you need to build, are trying to "figure it out as you go along", and are relying on the implicit fast feedback loop of standing next to each other.

I'm curious how often anyone actually finds this situation to happen and improve the feedback loop. I feel like it's more of an illusion of productivity then actual productivity because it's a pile of constant interruptions.

Like the given example with Meta doesn't seem like it would be better in-person, it sounds broken regardless.
I find it troubling that a root CA (ssl.com) is apparently OK with lending their name in a business relationship with an actor that is actively exploiting an acme.sh 0day.
Feels a lot like 3D movies . Don't think immersion provides the value or demands the purchasing price that people think it does. I mean, people still play dwarf fortress for god's sake. Look at how popular 8-bit things are. Animated movies, games, sawtooth waveform music.

At a certain point, the real value of realism is in being able to fake it. Which is a little bit of a scary thing I guess when the wrong actors use it for for lying and misleading.

An employer is not a partner.

If you are a partner in a business, then walking away is not so easy and probably a lot less desirable (and still, "junior partner" is sometimes a trap).

Most people who work for businesses are "human resources", so let's treat employers as "income providers" and nothing more.
Ask HN: Anyone else disinterested in Reddit API drama?
Like I get it, Reddit has historically been more open. But I just find the drama boring. Most people don't use 3rd party apps. Most people browse Reddit through an official UI. Instagram, Snap, a bazillion other private social networks don't have 3rd party apps. And with OpenAI, etc, you can't just give away the community's content to train LLMs. I didn't sign up for that when I posted on Reddit.

I'm going to continue to use Reddit.

So suppose we have this 3 hypothetical plans:

- Professional : XXX $ - Business YYY $ - Enterprise ZZZ $

which XXX << YYY << ZZZ

I'll repeat my scenario:
- I'm a Backend Developer
- I don't have any share in the company.
- I don't have any management position in the company.
- I'm not forcing any one in the company to use OrbStack to progress my mission in the company.
- I'm solely using it inside own device provided by the company. i don't have it installed in my colleagues devices.
- this company device is only in my own control and is not shared with anybody else in the company.
- this company device is not used in any automation CI/CD pipeline in the company.
- I'm willing to use it as a docker GUI for the docker images hosted in companies account in Google cloud.
- I'm also sometimes/occasionally, willing to use it in my personal toy projects using the same company laptop in my spare time using the same instance of OrbStack license.

based on these are you implying that i'm not allowed to use `professional` license and i need to use `business` license?

Or you are telling that it's okey for me to use my personal `professional` license in this scenarios?
Central and South America had a ton of stray dogs when I was there, and I hear they are very common in India too - they are probably common in much of the developing world. Like you, I don't recall seeing many of them in Europe at all. Lots of stray cats in Turkey and Greece, as I recall.

On the other hand we have a ton of foxes in and around London. Gorgeous creatures but quite a nuisance at times, like when they get into bins or making ungodly* noises at all all hours of the night.

Coming from a very similar background, I have more than a decade of mobile experience (consultant -> CTO), but almost all of my personal projects are web apps. I just can't be bothered dealing with how much control app stores want over my work, plus the amount of bureaucratic bullshit involved.

Plus, the modern web stack is amazing in terms of short iteration cycles (<30s to push and deploy a new project, excellent dev experience with TS).

Remote Work is better if

1. You prefer remote work

This always gets to be such a dogmatic discussion that will to someone claiming anyone who likes working in an office has no social life.

It’s just a preference. Remote work is not overall objectively better than office work (but you can create a set of goals for which this is true). Office work is not the right choice (but you can create a set of goals for which this is true).
A nice idea, but my opinion is that we need to openly boycott all of Advance Media's holdings and investments.

This isn't just about Reddit's IPO, this has to be about permanently breaking the back of a media conglomerate.
