>Ah, a variant on good old fanatical christian trope that suffering is good, helps get through purgatory blah blah blah.

You couldn't be further from truth. Suffering sucks, trying to quench it with booze and opiates increases suffering in the long game (perhaps except acute pain right after severe injury, surgery or some such).

> How can you gauge other people's suffering?

Corresponding professionals developed meaningful tools to measure both physical pain and mental distress.

>It can easily be completely crippling, not unlike extreme poverty is so stressful that it effectively blocks people from working themselves out of it.

Fair enough. You being unhappy with my comment however suggests that drinking and doping helps these people in any way.

>I am not just bashing you, I went through something similar, the worst breakup in my life was the motivation for me to start working out in the gym, lean even more on cool extreme sports, start running etc.

Good on you.

>But I know people in similar situation that simply couldn't move, stuck in vicious circle of self-pity, grief, self-harm in various ways, and more regrets.

What does that prove? Would you recommend that they drink or dope?

>What we should do as society be tolerant, humble and accept that nobody, especially politicians with actual power know everything.

Sure should. We also should be blunt about things we do know, such as that alcohol and opiates do not help against poverty, depression, loneliness and pretty much any other adverse condition - this is what I wrote earlier and I don't understand why you'd object to that.

>You can't protect stupid from their own stupidity anyway, not through regulation.

Yes you can, at least you can prevent the kind of stuff going on in China around Opium Wars. (And don't you dare pull Rat Park on me).
I’m GenX, and I’m with you. It’s one thing to make genuine friends in the workplace, but I have no desire to treat any company like a social support system. Just pay me on time, communicate professionally and politely, and try to keep my workload manageable. That’s the extent of the relationship I want with the organization.
Not having read anything on the failure, I'm surprised they wouldn't have other range finding methods. Like LIDAR actually, just not the LIDAR everyone thinks of. They have them on commercial drone packages. It's like a single beam LIDAR setup. Does better at long distance range finding than the mmWave Radar units. The mmW unit handles water better though. The engineers that built the JP lander are likely far smarter than I am and probably thought things through much better than my simple armchair observations.
Or less dramatic, there might be something heavy in there that you don't want to hit.
And then there’s the issue of a lot of ML packages having a native component… I spent half a day yesterday trying to build a project in an M1 Mac. Not even using an x86 Linux Docker image helped as tensorflow complained it was compiled for AVX-512 and the CPU didn’t support it.
I mean, Guinness tastes 'better' in Ireland because it's more popular, similar to how Miller on draft tastes 'better' in America - not because Miller makes it close to the bar, but because drinks that sell faster are fresher, sit in lines less, etc.
Terrible advice. Abitrary rules (make 10 folders!) is just utterly bonkers for everyone except a small subset of people who could categorise their life in this way.

It really grates on me when people offer solutions that work for them, as if they will work for everyone.

YES! Would have upvoted thrice. Thank You!
Isn't this similar to what modern languages did? They abstracted away the underlying encoding so that the programmer deals with characters instead of bytes. Two examples are Python and Javascript strings. They kept ASCII-like code ergonomics (iterating and random access).

That of course required that they separated strings and byte-like objects -- like uint8_t and wchar_t.

Isn't signed char actually the culprit in modern C and therefore useless? It's main use is ASCII and that's obsolete.

That's a shame as some of my favorite products and services such as sublime text and campaign monitor are from Australia.

The stuff that does break out to international scenes is very high quality but politically then somehow have sold themselves to Chinese and Indian businesses and they don't seem to mind being under surveillance.

Wonder if the fact that Australia was a prison island has anything to do with that.

I'm not arguing for or against any model of behaviour. Like I said above these are choices that people are free to weigh up and do as they see best.

I'm simply responding to "There is no model where reminding someone of the existence of something is a transgression" but we seem to have reached an agreement that there is.
This is one area where LLMs will help tremendously. I've always hated the Save operation, because it forces you to think about a name that describes what you're working on, even though the idea isn't fully formed yet.

I'm pretty sure Microsoft will integrate LLMs to automate file naming, and I hope other systems follow suit.

More interestingly, LLMs will easily organize data hierarchically based on the contents. I hope this becomes a reality this or next year.

I hate manually organizing a filesystem.

BareBones has had several good programs to go along with BBEdit.

Yojimbo is a kind of catch-all database where you can cram stuff and organize it. Kind of like a Pinterest for all kinds of things, not just images. With the family pack, everybody can have access to the same lump-o-stuff.

Way back in the day, they had Mailsmith, which was, more or less, a POP mail client with BBEdit crammed in. (This was back when pretty much all email was text and not HTML.) If you used email a lot, and needed to do clever things with it, it was fantastic. It never made the jump to IMAP AFAIK, so it kind of died out. I really liked it, but in today's world where a lot of email doesn't come multipart MIME, just HTML, it would be less useful.

But BBEdit is just great. Much like emacs, once you get immersed into the ecosystem, you find leaving it difficult. You end up with a collection of snippets and widgets and scripts and bits and bobs that become your workflow. And you can script all of it as well. It continues to chug along with ridiculously large files, even back when you might work on files bigger than the amount of RAM in your machine.

I'll remain a Mac user for as long as BBEdit works on it. While I can use other editors, if I have the choice I'll work in BBEdit.

Yes, and if you spend an hour in it, you'll see them dozens of times more. Words hold the meaning we give them, by constantly seeing words like these you stop caring about them. This is part of what makes 4chan so inclusive.

Because rather than having a social agreement not to call someone this or that, everyone calls everyone this or that so, so often that it bears no meaning anymore.

It's what every software developer out there using mindlessly. They are just putting React components and mixing them. NextJS also helps shield them from the back-end. You'd be surprised how many of them cannot differentiate between the back-end and the front-end and which parts are being executed by the server (it's netlify!).

Anyway, maybe I am getting too old?
Just a comment from someone living around Köln, those are not true kölsch beers since they cannot see the Kölner Dom from their brewery.

I find it quite fascinating that americans like kölsch. The first time, and only time, I saw kölsch outside of Germany was in Mountain View at some beer auction style tap bar in 2016. It was quite popular since it had a high price. I might assume it was due to the similarity with local/large batch beer.
> Perl6 wasn't meant as replacement for Perl 5, v5 was meant to stay forever, maybe to be improved when possible. And that we have.

Sorry, but originally it was meant as the replacement (and I was physically present at its announcement at OSCON in 2000). It wasn't until 2008 when the "sister language meme" was generally accepted, that the paths diverged instead of being sequential.
As someone who was obese and has remained healthy for the last decade without gaining the weight back or calorie counting, this article smells like fresh horseshit meant to lay the groundwork for the pharmaceutical industry to treat all obesity as a chronic, idiopathic condition they can "correct the balance" of.

After all, it couldn't possibly be that keeping everyone's blood glucose elevated with exogenous carbohydrates results in hunger-satiety dysregulation, among other things. Certainly not! Inflammation is totally not a thing and definitely doesn't contribute to cardiovascular disease. It must be that your body is permanently broken and only drugs can cure you! /s

Based on linked article I disagree, based on further references prev article (https://daniel.haxx.se/blog/2023/03/06/nvd-makes-up-vulnerab...) I could kinda agree but only due to my lack of understanding the real scope of consequences.

It's disaster when system handling user data is showing data for another user and this is how I understand effects of https://curl.se/docs/CVE-2023-27536.html manifesting in real world. It was wrong even before privacy regulations were invented.

With prev issue (https://curl.se/docs/CVE-2022-42915.html) it seems more sophisticated to take advantage of and probably requires planting something in memory by other means, but I'm not "malware specialist", I don't know assembly well enough to judge it myself.

It's all good that some of these things can be found by libcurl authors/maintainers themselves. I'd love to see directly in CVE registries that source of CVE was internal to the project without need to lookup the reporters. If there is some feature even with lowest usage among all of them it is still a feature, and as author of library you don't have control about usage of your library. I think the GSS delegation bug well deserved initial score.

From library user side as developer I'd love to see it as critical and then write report about false positive based on library usage to pass CI checks on my side. And it's not blame for you to have race conditions, it's praise for not having them anymore.

Oh, so the vaunted religion of the "free market" doesn't solve all of society's ills? It creates social ills?

Say it ain't so!

People have been saying this for next to forever and their concerns are always pooh-pooh'ed.

Seriously, if the free market doesn't work for the housing market, one of the most transparent and elastic markets that exist, then what does it work for? I find it hard to believe Americans are seriously proposing limiting the property one can buy. After all, "Wall Street" is a useful fiction - at the end of the day it's just people.
That's a great analogy, big fan of Vadim's ink project btw.
Of course, if someone puts up the money and eats the loss you get cheap electricity.

The problem is, someone has to eat the loss. People proposing nuclear power generally have no answer regarding who this "someone" is rather than generic handwaving about "the grid!"

> However, as noted before, this isn’t really all that interesting. The storage part is the big interesting trillion dollar question.

For the Nordics this is already solved with the existing hydropower. Sweden as of this week stores 19 TWh in their reservoirs. This is the reason no storage gets built in the Nordics, it is impossible to compete with scheduling the release of water more in line with renewables rather than daily consumption cycles.

It's a lot more complicated than just writing a matrix multiplication kernel because there are all sorts of operations you need to have on top of matrix multiplication (non linearities, various ways of manipulating the data) and this sort of effort is only really worthwhile if it's well optimized.

On top of that, AMD's compute stack is fairly immature, their OpenCL support is buggy and ROCm compiles device specific code, so it has very limited hardware support and is kind of unrealistic to distribute compiled binaries for. Then, getting to the optimization aspect, NVIDIA has many tools which provide detailed information on the GPU's behavior, making it much easier to identify bottlenecks and optimize. AMD is still working on these.

Finally, NVIDIA went out of its way to support ML applications. They provide a lot of their own tooling to make using them easier. AMD seems to have struggled on the "easier" part.
I don't really see as most of these features being particularly new or different, there are loads of SDKs and packages around for rendering emails and sending them with various providers. It's really a non-issue.

Deliverability is the #1 problem all developers actually face with this imo. We have perpetual issues with extremely high importance, but extremely low volume transactional email from admin panels alerting various (usually non technical) people to things. For example; an important extremely high value custom order has been requested and requires senior signoff in a platform. As far as I can tell nothing really suits this, it's too low volume (<1k emails a month - maybe even a few emails a month) for it to work well with dedicated IPs and shared IPs constantly get spam blocked on the major MSPs.

In the the end we tend to use SMS or slack/teams webhooks for this.

Oh absolutely. About as easy as stopping a heroin addiction though, I expect. Not only the direct income from them, but about 10% of the non-govt workforce is directly tied to the oil extraction or in supporting roles.
Illegality creates some friction, but removes others. In some areas, it would be easier for a minor to access illegal drugs than it would be to access legal ones. Nobody is going to openly sell alcohol or tobacco to kids at a retail establishment, they'd instantly lose their license. While I won't go so far as to say that every illegal drug dealer would be willing to sell to minors, it's a much smaller leap from "I'm already breaking the law by selling drugs, so what's one more law to break?" versus "I own a legitimate retail establishment, which is in jeopardy if I break this particular law".

Drugs themselves should be entirely outside the scope of law enforcement. Plenty of the things that are brought up by prohibitionists would still be illegal under a host of other laws, outside of possession and use itself. Rob someone to get your next fix? Congrats, robbery is still illegal, off to jail with you.

The history on this is pretty clear. Drug prohibition has caused more harm than it has protected people from. It can also springboard into discussion of historical (and current) racial disparity, as such laws almost inevitably affect the disenfranchised and downtrodden disproportionately.

Drugs are not a criminal issue. They are a public health issue. Harm reduction policies work.

Show HN: Fatebook – Superforecasting in your Slack
Hey HN! I’ve been building Fatebook for the past couple of months. It’s a slack bot to help your team make and track predictions, right where you work.

I see forecasting as anti-bullshit technology:

- It gives you truthseeking incentives

- You communicate your uncertainty as a probability, which is way clearer (70% is better than “probably”)

- You can aggregate forecasts to get wisdom of the crowd effects

- You can see everyone’s track record, and pay more attention to people who are consistently accurate

I’m a fan of prediction markets [0] and forecasting platforms [1]. But predictions on existing platforms are public - and the questions that are most important to you are normally about your work, which are often best to keep private by default, so you can give your true credence.

So I decided to make a slack bot to make forecasting privately and with your team as easy and fast as possible.

How it works:

1. Make a prediction in slack: `/forecast Will we ship v0.1 in two weeks?`

2. Everyone in the channel can add their forecast (0% - 100%)

3. In two weeks, Fatebook reminds you to resolve it as YES, NO, or AMBIGUOUS

4. Over time, you see your track record - your Brier score [2], relative Brier, and a graph of your calibration

I think it’s a good fit for startups who are dealing with lots of uncertainty and making bets - good to be explicit and track how your expectations do or don’t match with reality, so you can pivot early.

I also think programmers might get value from forecasting how long it’ll take them to build stuff - accurately predicting this lets you prioritise better and ship faster.

Let me know if you have any thoughts or suggestions!

> Until that, a typical driver ?? adapt its velocity depending on his capabilities and the road/weather.

There’s an important missing word here, do you mean “should” or “does” where I’ve added in question marks? Because people hit moose and deer all the time, I think it would be good if everyone would drive safely, but they don’t.

An autonomous car with capabilities similar to a human that is designed by responsible engineers to drive safely would not be very popular I think, it would drive very slowly and annoy the passengers.

And of course an autonomous car that was as dangerous as a human would be the subject of all sorts of news reports and chatter online, and nobody would buy it because it would be seen as too dangerous.

It isn’t fair, but we won’t see widespread adoption until the average person can anthropomorphize a model of a car as, like, a guy they know who drives a lot and has never gotten in an accident. Because the Tesla algorithm is what we hear about, we think of it as being a single entity that drives all Teslas, and it ran into a fire truck or whatever, so it must be kind of an idiot.
