Words like "human dignity" and "challenging" are much too grandiose to apply to garden-variety flamewar - internet attacks, putdowns and so on. If you want to do something for human dignity, there are plenty of other ways, some of which might even have a positive effect, unlike calling names and whatnot. We know what all that leads to, there's no moral value in it (regardless of how righteous the people doing it feel, or how they justify it) and we're trying to avoid that.

If other users are posting bad comments, the thing to do is to downvote them and/or flag them and/or let us know about them at hn@ycombinator.com - as the site guidelines request. Posting flamewar attacks in response only evokes worse from others, draws more attention to the thing you're attacking (which energizes it, which contradicts your intention),
and ultimately plunges the ecosystem into internet hell. If you don't want to help HN avoid that outcome, please don't post here.

We don't come close to seeing everything that gets posted to HN. If you see a post that ought to have been moderated but hasn't been, the likeliest explanation is that we didn't see it. You can help by flagging it or emailing us at hn@ycombinator.com. https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&qu...

The argument would be better without referring to her blatant hypocrisy. It serves no purpose other than to appeal to dull witted people. There may not be plastic alternatives available right now to many things but one needs to make an argument that there is no possible substitute. That one can’t make an alternative. Furthermore it needs to be argued that the positives from using plastic outweigh the negatives caused by greatly reducing usage of plastics and the negatives caused by using plastic.
This isn't one of those times.

What are you even on about, I'm able to access the web metrics for my current employers consumer facing site which has single digit safari user agents, and I'm betting at least half of them will have enabled content blockers, though I don't have any metric for that.

It just depends on your target audience. Some demographics have miniscule apple presence, others have them as a majority. So, depending on your target audience, it might not be worth it. Especially because we're taking about a feature that will merely increase the brightness of the ad.

Don't interpret some idiotic agenda into a simple cost/reward speculation.

That's awesome, seems like a great contribution to the community. CB radio, too, that's not so common these days. I scan for it sometimes but never find any local traffic.
I see. Regardless it sounds like it was unmanned because of the deëmphasis on the missing passengers. It's like saying “missing car” when people that were in a car go missing.
Can you confirm they've actually been deleted now that you've submitted this formal request?

Yes, I know that site very well.

This does bring up the issue of actual legal protections, though.

If you are training an LLM on the open web, or things posted for everyone to view for free, than that is OK I guess when it comes to legal ramifications. (Definitely not a lawyer)

When you start using data that you really don't have the rights too...and somehow someone finds out that their protected data is included in the dataset...then what?
the one thing I miss in apple notes is being able to drag and drop items of a list with checkboxes to re-order them.
People who don’t get a drug while it is under development aren’t in a control group. People in a clinical trial who don’t get the drug are in the control group. Yes it is a morally tricky situation, but the people who signed up are aware of it. Everyone else simply doesn’t get the drug because the drug hasn’t been approved yet.
Was it only crew on the submersible or were there paying guests as well?
The report states humans take ~60s per answer and GPT-4 takes ~3.0s, thus just 20 times time / 7 times cheaper is the baseline for the highest quality result available.
Faster models are 2-3 times faster, but 3s is already enough even for real-time application

The cost, hovewer, goes down to 1/1000 for cheaper models (and they can still 100% some of the datasets), meaning that for the same price as a human annotator you could have 1000 parallel realtime LLM annotators

Thank you for showing that I was right to in my belief: 'I suspect Rust changes - just like new proposed C++ changes - are checked against only easily and "well-known" accessible package.'

My point is that dthul's comment "they usually test it against all publicly available Rust code" implies Rust has a very small user base. Since crater runs only against "parts of the Rust" - those available on GitHub and crates - it implies a rather larger ecosystem.

As for "mine" - what I know about C++ development comes from reading links posted to HN; hardly "mine" in any meaningful sense. I also don't accept your wording "these checks", because my point is that similarly useful checks are done, not exactly identical tests. I wrote 'FWIW, the C++ standards developers use do use code search tools to help identify possible breakage.'

From previous readings, I know they do code surveys, and experiments using existing code bases and compilers.

For examples, there's https://codesearch.isocpp.org/ ("developed for ISO Standard C++ proposal authors in order to explore existing C++ practice and to provide empirical evidence to support claims about existing practice made in proposals.") done in surveys to understand how code is used. For example, https://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2019/p14... .

At https://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2019/p11... they used a custom tool to analyze Boost, Chromium, Firefox, the Linux Kernel, Libreoffice, LLVM, and Qt: "Estimated 30 to 80 millions LOC compiled".
But if the child isn’t passionate about comp sci/programming/etc their life is gonna be hell. Better to let them be happy than be miserable.
Some of the changes Japan is proposing impact both Apple and Google.

1) sideloading (which Google already does)

2) allowing 3rd party apps to use alternative payment processors

3) allowing users to remove 1st party apps

4) no built-in preference for 1st party apps

Not-for-profit doesn't mean the motives magically align. A lot of not-for-profit healthcare provided by hospitals in the US is Catholic-church affiliated. For reasons that have nothing to do with profit, there is a lot of healthcare (e.g. abortions, birth control) they refuse to provide.
I'm amazed at the amount of fire that Reddit has been playing with here. The update on this article is pretty amazing, with Reddit really not understanding their legal requirements before shooting that response back.

I've been having some fun using Lemmy in the mean time, and I quite like it. Once some communities get established, I think it'll easily take over from Reddit. It wasn't quite ready for prime time yet, but this boost in popularity is quickly showing the places it needs some help, and I think it'll get it.

That isn't to say I've abandoned Reddit, though. I still read it as much as I had... I'm just really interested in alternatives existing as well.
I'd say the first question in their minds is "Why do we spend so much money in staff?"
As someone who is entirely out of the loop, can you list out these crimes with some sources? Thanks!
okay.

the counterpoints to that are that everything you observed are based on pervasive assumptions. which would be reflected in what everyone else wrote. which are perpetuated by the same health professionals and individuals that don't look into men's fertility realities first.

but for example, why do we know its just "she couldn't get pregnant", were their other partners? was there an accident in the past? was one of her ovaries taken out in a procedure? the article doesn't say, the only thing for us to assume is that they tried and tried and tried and eventually one egg stuck.

mentioning her age shouldn't derail a discussion whether she was 25 or 43 or other. that part we agree on, or at least I agree on, I think you're suggesting that she was closer in age and "therefore it would be okay", which is different than my observation entirely.
Great, this is a huge step forward. Hopefully it will be the norm worldwide. Next step is limiting stuff like remote attestation so users can't be punished for exercising their freedoms.
Didn't find this in the README: does it handle network/OpenAI errors via retries? In particular the very common "model is overloaded at the moment".

It's fine if not, I can imagine you want to keep it as simple as possible and outsource it to the library user.
UB? In My Lexer? [pdf]
“UB? In my lexer?” by Corentin Jabot removes the possibility that just tokenizing C++ code can be a source of undefined behavior in a C++ compiler itself. (Did you know it could be UB? Now it can’t.) Note however that this does not remove all possible UB during compilation; future papers may address more of those compile-time UB sources. ~ Herb Sutter
Singletons are considered 'bad' under general advice because they can make testing hard.

As with everything, there is a time and a place, but if you understand the tradeoffs to recognize that time and place you won't be soliciting random advice from the internet, and thus won't hear the 'good'.

I get the impression that the JavaScript world largely doesn't care much for testing, though.
Not fully general, no. There is no such thing like a "Turning machine" for quantum computers. There are classes of algorithms like Shor's, Grover's, and quantum annealing which can be used to solve large many instances of related problems.

This is kinda like how matrix diagonalization can be used to solve any problem which is expressible as a linear system of equations, and to some degree any continuous function can be approximated by a linear system, so a BLAS + LAPACK accelerator is a "universal simulation engine."

You could probably build a generic Shor's algorithm quantum computer that is able to both factor integers and break elliptic curve keys. But the same quantum computer wouldn't be usable for Grover's algorithm to find the presage of a cryptographic hash. This is what I mean by there not being a "universal quantum computer" in the same way a Turing machine is a universal classical computer. Quantum computers by their very nature are ASIC implementations of specific algorithms, even though those algorithms might have some multi-domain applicability.
We already have a process for this called informed consent.

* Medication must be prescribed by and supervised by an MD.

* Doctor has to give you paperwork explaining everything about the drug, that it's not approved and experimental, what the known side effects are and personally go through it with you allowing you to ask questions.

It's not currently required but you could also mandate a short cooling off period to avoid rash decisions.

In an odd twist of fate the political faction that would love to eliminate the FDA also wants to eliminate informed consent because people are getting medical care they don't approve of. How dare the FDA tell you what you can and can't do with your body -- only we should be allowed to do that lololol
I'm hesitant to speculate but just sharing -- an earlier version of this submersible was scrapped:

"OceanGate will take advantage of lessons learned during the construction of its carbon-hulled Titan submersible, which was originally built for Titanic journeys. Rush said tests that were conducted at the Deep Ocean Test Facility in Annapolis, Md., revealed that the Titan’s hull “showed signs of cyclic fatigue.” As a result, the hull’s depth rating was reduced to 3,000 meters.

“Not enough to get to the Titanic,” Rush said."

Your mind will be blown. We have a assemble/disassemble version of PAX wardrobes that takes 5 min to break down/put up.
This is a form of "whataboutism" Just because some countries' governments are as bad as some corporations, does not mean either should get a free pass, or that corporations are not at fault for what they do.

Only when I'm in the mood.

There's a bit of a lower than street/asphalt-level manhole cover in a calm corner here. I just go over this one with a bit of an angle, started very gentle and increased speed/leaning angle a bit over time. Not for race bikes, though.

Then, when I see long-drawn-out mended cracksin a corner when its hot, sometimes I try to induce a slip on those. Takes some courage though, but the slip wont be as bad, because the patches are only one to two centimeters wide (the cracks are parallel to the road).

I ride a light dualsports bike, a KTM 790 Adventure. It has spoke wheels and takes the abuse without an issue. And it also has all the electronic features (6-axle IMU, traction control, etc).

It's just that my bum knows how a slip feels and to prevent a bad reaction in case an (semi scary) involuntary one happens. That has served me well so far, saved me from reacting badly when I was surprised in a shady & moist corner and so on.

The point that people are making is that it's the trolley problem. Yes you actively kill one person by making a drug available prematurely but you kill 5 people through inaction otherwise.

It doesn't really. Nobody forced the console makers to adopt that business model, and they must have been aware of the regulatory risks. They chose to do it anyway.

Someone needs to automate all this so people can start doing it by the millions. Reddit wants to play hardball, so let's play hardball.

The context in the GP post clearly shows a high-dpi screen. So I think a font designed for printers or high-dpi is appropriate for it.

Verdana is actually undersized relative to most fonts. The ascender range is too large, so the baseline is off as well. And as you pointed out, the blue zones are similar to Noto anyway, so that aspect wouldn't affect readability.

I think you probably just have a low-res monitor. Noto has no bytecode hinting, so it would fall back to an auto hinter or remain unhinted and wouldn't present with the same sharpness.
Yes? I meant they should be allowed to run independent clinical trials and then submit for approval.

I also did point out that the integral nature of the manufacturing process is a obvious potential problem. It, however, does not seem like a insurmountable problem. The specifications on sourced components and the quality control processes applied to them is already integral to the drug manufacturing process. This would just move it one level further up where the final drug produced by some existing production process is a “component”. They also already approve drugs for different uses and evaluate existing drugs for new uses, so it does not seem that qualitatively different from some existing approval procedures. I am not sure of the exact details and am not proposing a specific solution, but it certainly does not seem to be a deal breaker.
Could you expand on what's capitalistic about being a dick to 3rd party apps?

As a platform you can monetise that, turning it into wealth, the value is already there. These users prefer the experience of the platform provided by someone else than Reddit. In my mind, if principles of capitalism were in play here, and Reddit is well managed, they would find an efficient way to make money out of value that's already being delivered. Forcing apps to shutdown won't be doing that.

The current move is just a dick move with the potential to make Reddit less valuable than before, I do not understand what principle of capitalism states that this specific brutality is efficient at creating wealth.
It's a bit like they are all connected together by gears. All the generators are in phase.

The most difficult bit for an operator is to make sure the generator is synchronized before they actually connect it. Only after it's synchronized can they start actually feeding power in.

You can't just turn these things on and off at will like a regular motor. To extend the gears analogy, gears need to be synchronised before they can engage - just like synchronous AC generators.
Unless you glued them when assembling, moving most IKEA furniture fully assembled puts a lot of stress on the hardware and it permanently loosens up.
Just listening to it, it's subjectively not better, but if it's > 10x faster/cheaper, I would use it anyway -- it's good enough to be listenable.

Eleven Labs is the first voice synthesis that is good enough that I'd listen to an audiobook generated from it, but pricing is such that it would cost $100 to synthesize a 10 hour audiobook. A little too expensive. If they could get it down to $10 I'd cancel my Audible subscription and just synthesize audio from ebook text.

So if I can get a locally running voicebox model and just leave it running on my laptop over night transcribing an audiobook, that's even better.
I think this is only true if your distro doesn't have user namespaces enabled, and many popular ones do not for security reasons.
> those wooden rod things

Dowels.
Well, my main question was mostly _why_ it doesn't work (I may not have worded that very well). That said, presuming there was a way to make it work, I'd have it transmit all the available information about what's happening on the sub (respecting any technical limits).

Then if the transponder stops sending data, you know something is wrong. Even if you don't know the exact location, knowing the last depth/speed the sub was at before losing comms, for example, is valuable.

The caveat to all this is, like other comments said, radio doesn't work so well in salt water (which I didn't know).

It seems like the epoxy in this composite structure is sustaining all of the compressive loads. The carbon fiber would seem to be just along for the ride, so to speak, since fibers are only useful in tension. Am I missing something?
Carbon fiber is used because it is rigid.

The failure mode for a member in compression is buckling, which is resisted by stiffness, not strength.

It's also a lot easier to make a huge thick tube out of composites than out of titanium. That's why only the spherical ends are titanium, and the middle tube part is CF.
I don’t completely disagree with you and in fact would have said the same a few years ago, but you can see the aggressiveness of Russia and China when they feel they can get away with it. The US backing of Ukraine is instrumental to their ability to maintain their defense and the US Navy is perhaps the only thing stopping China from launch a full out invasion of Taiwan.

I think if the EU were to increase military spending there may be more pressure domestically in the US to pull back on military spending. A bit of a chicken and egg situation I suppose as there is no need until the US defense spending is curtailed.
They don't really care about misuse. They just don't want to say openly that they like to keep their shiny new tech and make money with it. No idea why, most people wouldn't bat an eye if you stated from the get go: We built it, we'll use it.
