> In the real world it takes weeks if not months to purchase a delivery vehicle.

But you are looking at it from the perspective of someone sitting behind a keyboard, starting from scratch.

In the real world with thriving economies, there will be smaller, underdog players already operating. Maybe they are regional, or maybe they have a slower/smaller fleet.

Whatever the reason, these smaller players rise up to eat the big one because they already have something to leverage. Facilities, workers etc. They just need to raise capital to expand rapidly.

The steps in the parent post are not meant for someone starting from scratch.
Why do the government target the workers? And not the owners of these companies?

Why can't they just tell that they will nationalize them if they don't agree to demands. If they don't and allow strike to happen. Just take over the private ownership resetting both equity and bond holders and give the gains to workers...

Speculation, but having major subs private change the load profile which may result in the outage. Reddit certainly wasn't optimized for this.
Not really. The army is the part of the workforce they actually take good care of. It might be contracted from a PMC, or even the state because under REAL capitalism the state exists to keep the capital happy.
Hmm, is there a way to switch between tags without editing the url? I can't find any list of current ones.
This isn’t unusual. I don’t use Reddit often and have seen it out several times this year, which says a lot.
Ford and GM recently announced they will be using NACS for new electric vehicles. NACS is the standard.
> tbh how is this different than most subs?

It's completely different than the subs I browse. But I avoided subs of a particular political persuasion or another. I was mostly looking at technical subs with good, apolitical moderation.

I tend to avoid politics online -- even if I agree with them. They're rarely useful and I'm just not interested, in a lot of cases.
Well that's too much optimization, nobody wants that.
> But in a 9-0 decision, the justices said a precedent known as the Rogers test for assessing the use of trademarks in artistic expression did not apply to VIP's products

I was curious what the Rogers Test was, so I looked it up. I'm glad they agreed it doesn't apply here but sets a question as to what it even does apply to.

> At the trial, Rogers offered evidence in the form of a survey that showed 43% of individuals exposed to the title of the film associated it with her

That association seems to be the point of parody and satire. This metric is also easily hacked. Funny enough, The Onion wrote a brief to the Supreme Court not too long ago over a satire case, stating that fooling people is what makes satire work[0,1]. Doing so... satirically of course.

Lots of bad code was written in Perl by people who didn't know how to program. This is a feature, though. Tons of valuable software was created with the assistance of a language that attempts to get things done more than it tries to hold people to the implementor's dogma.
Minor nitpick: Data recovery team are not magicians, can also be lazy. And hacking techniques keep improving, so I'd never re-sell a drive that previously had highly valuable data.
Man, you are talking about yourself, you literally started this subthread with the basic set of round of the mill covid contrarians BS that have 0 ground in reality and survive only thanks to the emotional attachment of people like you.

When asked for evidence you post the usual cherrypicked random stuff that aligns with what you believe (the only valid sources).

My recommendation is to just stop with this imaginary fight for the truth, when everyone is moving on and no one even cares anymore about these creative reinterpretations of reality. You lost any credibility with the first message of this chain, too much BS. Free yourself.

You can use a local account, but it’s really hidden away (you have to use command prompt at setup time). I had to do this because my WiFi requires a browser to setup and my Ethernet had missing drivers.

They could not wrap their head around the idea that the hosts method is limited in some use cases.

This could not be blocked without blocking the main host too.
https://example.com/adverts-folder/advert.jpg

Now it sort of works in practice as most of the advert networks do not host on the same domain.

It is good at catching out whole bad domains but partial ones it is not very good at. Which some domains will do using a reverse proxy.

Also at one point a hosts file was linear scan. No sort of hashing or binary search lookup. Not sure if that was ever fixed in windows or linux. So a small number of hosts it was ok. But as the file grows it starts to add up.
Finally doing something or calling for action isn't "panicking"..
The healthline story is summarizing a large number of studies, all of which have ambiguous results, or show negative side effects.

So, like tobacco (which doctors used to recommend to help with lung health to kill colds, etc), there are a lot of ambiguous "no / little effect" studies in favor of artificial sweeteners, and a lot of studies showing clear negative effects. However, there aren't any showing significant benefits.

It's easy to produce a no-effect study via lazy experimental setup, and slight positive effects via P-hacking for strange things. For example, this quote from [2] looks like P-hacking:

> However, a recent review of nine observational studies noted that artificial sweeteners were associated with a slightly higher BMI — but not with increased body weight or fat mass (17Trusted Source).

Anyway, here are some other quotes from [2] against artificial sweeteners.

I pasted in their conclusion at the bottom of this comment, which can be summarized as "they won't help much, but they might hurt. If you have the following symptoms, discontinue use":

Though artificial sweeteners provide sweet taste, many researchers believe that the lack of calories prevents complete activation of the food reward pathway.

This may be the reason that artificial sweeteners are linked to increased appetite and cravings for sugary food in some studies (8Trusted Source).

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans in five men showed that sugar consumption decreased signaling in the hypothalamus, the appetite regulator of your brain (9Trusted Source).

This response was not seen when participants consumed aspartame — suggesting that your brain may not register artificial sweeteners as having a filling effect (9Trusted Source).

...

Another argument against artificial sweeteners is that their extreme and unnatural sweetness encourages sugar cravings and sugar dependence.

...

Though observational studies cannot prove cause and effect, the results are sometimes quite staggering.

For example, one study found that a high intake of diet soft drinks was linked to a 121% greater risk of type 2 diabetes (24Trusted Source).

Another study noted that these beverages were associated with a 34% greater risk of metabolic syndrome (25Trusted Source).

This is supported by one study on the effects of artificial sweeteners on both mice and humans. It associated the sweeteners with glucose intolerance and a disruption in gut bacteria (26Trusted Source).

...

In fact, replacing sugar with artificial sweeteners may be helpful in reducing body weight — though only slightly at best.

...

However, if you experience cravings, poor blood sugar control, or other health problems, avoiding artificial sweeteners may be one of many things to consider.

It's difficult for large companies to realize new uses for tech, that's why we need small innovators. But large companies deploy landscapes of patents to trap them.
I think the subscription and redistribution idea is the future of a sustainable internet. You will need some way to make sure this money given to the original content creators, or the website will be completely overrun by spammers re-posting other people's material that they know will net them the most money. Or am I tripping?

It's a bad choice to have all images in Google file format if you want your website to be accessible to as many people as possible. Not everybody is on Chrome browsers.

Why haven't you seeded your platform with high quality content before launching? Now it is a desert.

I assume self promotion for people and businesses is allowed and encouraged, since it costs money to post?
It is a nice start, but I cannot image that tags are sufficient organization of the content to scale this idea. And while the UI looks nice, it is incomplete. I saw no tag options when posting, and before logging in I didn't even see sufficient navigation to understand how to find and filter content.

The monetization idea also feels like it won't scale - the more someone is active, the less their vote is going to mean. Seems like an odd incentive, as creators then will be targeting those users who pay for the site, but don't use it much.

Overall, this looks like a well-coded but half-baked idea of a site.
Actually yes it will - at least as of last weekend. During OOBE setup, after connecting to Ethernet or Wi-Fi, you must select “join a work or school domain.”

I got tripped up by this too because I was insistent on not connecting it to the internet during setup, but the local account only switch had moved since I last checked up on it.

It will still ask you three or four times ARE YOU SURE you don’t want to sign in to a Microsoft account. But at least you can still avoid it for the moment.
It's almost the 40th anniversary of RFC 882. Back when the Domain Name System was being invented as the replacement for everyone sharing hosts files, I wonder whether anyone expected that 40 years later there'd be a shared hosts file with its own copyright licence, Docker file, and code of conduct.

Interestingly, from what I remember of the April Fools columns of electronics magazines of the time, one thing that people would not have been surprised by is that the purpose was zapping advertisements.

If they have non-negligible amounts of office space then staffing said office space to a certain level will end up in the local government granting some tax breaks to the company (for that property and possibly for other things).

Companies that were remote before COVID-19 anyway are not suddenly realizing that remote work doesn't work (because it does work), so they are staying remote. They had no offices and aren't getting any so there is no incentive to bring people into an office.

Companies that weren't remote before COVID-19 are usually locked into long term leases, and conveniently enough, these are the same companies extolling the "benefits" of in-office work and the "downsides" of remote work that (also very conveniently) only they have observed.

This all boils down to whether or not the company has a significant amount of skin in the game with regard to office space.
They tested XSW attacks against OOXML and couldn't find any, but yes, this line of attacks and XSW both sort of follow from the malleability/flexibility of XML. It's generally not secure to build signature systems "inside" of XML.
Personally, I like to prepare for the worst but hope for the best.

I wish more people would take a reasonable middle approach like that. Are we still, as a society, allowed to do things like that?

I keep a somewhat loose journal of stuff I do at work, mostly because I want to know how I did things. At home I keep a more rigorous journal of things, especially things I install or code.

I think something that would incentivize those longer-form interactions would be to remove the upvote/downvote system and replace it with something similar to what SA had back in the day, where you could label posts with "Insightful", "Funny", "Off-topic" and the like. I find that too many people will only say things that they know will get them karma, which leads to that hivemind that everyone hates. Having a system where you can put a numerical value on someone's "importance" to the site will only lead to users minmaxxing their responses.
If they weren't adversarial to the moderators they would seem them as their golden goose. They've done what other social media platforms haven't and solved scaling moderation without having to pay the moderators.

Your virtualbox crash is likely due to bios/uefi configuration.

> A good decision-maker should take input from everybody who will be impacted.

You’re right; I’m really glad I polled thousands of fellow employees before forcing multifactor auth, or that time I chatted with a sysadmin to make sure they really did mean to open RDP on a public server before taking it offline.

Sarcasm aside, in a time of a medical emergency, it is the job of medical professionals to make decisions, because public safety supersedes individual freedoms. It’s why we have speed limits. It’s why you have to wear a seatbelt. It’s why you can’t shoot fireworks off during a drought. It’s why products are restricted from being sold. The concept is fundamentally the same.

It’s also the same reason I’m glad cybersecurity policy, strategy, and operations are not a truly democratic process.
Meta's virtual world projects always give me the sense that they're aimed at set of personas/demographics that has almost zero overlap with the people actually running or building those projects.

That's why they fail. Virtual worlds - almost like real ones - are super-platforms, not applications. The interactions are too varied and complex to reduce to a set of simple primary use cases or personas.

So, if you're building a virtual world that you yourself wouldn't want to use, you're almost certainly going to fail.

The adapters shouldn't be a big deal. All new Teslas are able to use the CCS protocol over the NACS port and any new chargers implementing NACS will likely use it as well so any dumb adapter should work perfectly fine with a 3rd party NACS charger. GM/Ford additionally may have some special sauce that will let them use superchargers but that's somewhat of a separate issue.
This is definitely an interesting challenge you bring up.

I think regardless of the how difficult it is to remove a non-binary flag, the market has moved feature flagging away from just binary and merged with the concepts of remote configuration and experimentation, both of which require more than just ON/OFF states.

For us, we're not trying to shy away from that challenge, so it forces us to come up with interesting solutions to the problem.

A couple ways we're solving for this problem are:

1. Variable Schemas - We just launched a feature that allows for engineers to strictly define the acceptable values of any feature flag they are creating, so that as other team members interact with those flags, there are programmatic controls in place that create guardrails on the input. This also does double-duty in creating strongly typed code, so that usage in code is clear, easy to navigate, use and cleanup when the time comes.

2. Code Cleanup - An example of one of those solutions is our Code Cleanup CLI command. Regardless of what the flag type is (boolean, number, string, JSON) you can provide the prompt with what you would like the end state to be and the AST logic built into the CLI will create a proposed diff for your code wherever a DevCycle flag exists which you can then either edit further or submit directly for a PR.

I 100% agree non-binary flags present a challenge, but we are definitely interested in finding unique ways to solve that problem.
It’s unfortunate, but there’s not really a FOSS alternative for a general purpose personal-use OS that comes close to Windows.

It completely owns that market. There’s macOS and iOS I guess, but they’re not generally available to install on third party equipment.

Linux, sadly, is just not at all a consumer OS and never became one. The security model alone is an unfixable disaster (and many have tried over the years).

Why are we so caught up on LLMs as the means of a self-healing program though? In fact why has all popular ML conversation lately been reduced down to just LLMs? It just seems like there are so many other wild potential implementations that could be derived from the core math/theory but most of the world typically just waits for something to latch onto (like LLMs), rather than seek to produce something entirely new.

There was just a post about convex optimization on HN. I don't understand why researchers aren't creating mathematical/statistical models of programming languages (hell, even Lisp) and creating radically avant-garde self-optimizing processes that run on emergent/generative sandboxed code subsets, which can optimize over time, which then literally be woven back into the operating codebase itself. Hell you could even have it build procedurally generated internal tests and heuristics for itself.
This is a valid question and should not be downvoted.

I jokingly wrote "in before GPT4" because our example is the most simple of cases. I've seen GPT4 make similar mistakes, just not as blatant ones. Which in some ways is better but in other ways worse.

I should answer that I've been asking this exact question at minimum 3 times a month since ChatGPT came out. It should be in their training. Especially as I've tweeted and discussed with plenty of LLM people about it. The point is not the specific question (while an egregious example), but rather how much you can trust the system.
Or a bump helmet and hook the whole thing to the Night Vision Goggle mount on the front (like the new IVAS design), and put counterweights on the back to prevent it from shifting down. That could take a lot of pressure off your face and make the whole headborne system more balanced.
That folding ideas video is excellent. I implore anyone who wishes to unseat Reddit or any monopolistic website to watch it, so they don't fall into the trap of creating a clone with the same architectural flaws.

AFAIK NextCloud aims to replace something like Google Calendar, but this isn't exactly what I'm after. What I really need is something that replaces FB Events.

Self-hosting a replacement for the GSuite would kind of solve this need, people could use Signal for chat and post pictures to NextCloud, but overall seems misaligned with the featureset I'm seeking.
