The problem isn't one takeout overlapping (multiple zips from one date) it's many takeouts over the years (full history).

So for example in 2001, you make a takeout with 30 zips, and then delete half of your photos off of Google. Then in 2007, you have another 20 zips, and delete 25% of your emails and photos to make more room, 2008 again, on up to now.

So now you have a big folder with many zips, and maybe some extracted folders, because things happen over the years, etc.

What's the best tool to merge all of this into one directory?

Got can help for the notes from Google keep that may have had things appended to or removed, photos can be overlapping a bit so really a set union is all that's required for many files, but some will be slightly different like the Google keep notes.

My best thought is to make some git repo and add things in, but to do a levenstein distance on the bits of each file to check if there is overlap in content and to estimate the 'lineage' of a file if there is significant overlap with another. Effectively you reconstruct the git commit tree with the set of all files over all histories. Then you build the git repo history from all of the files.

This would likely just be a local git repo since it would likely be several terabytes of info, but that would be the general idea I guess.

I just haven't found a good tool to actually do this easily unfortunately, but it seems like it would be a very basic , or commonly used scenario (especially for those 'should-be-a-git-repo' directories that everyone made before knowing about git. You know the ones: 'myfile.v1.doc', myfile.v2.doc', 'myfile.final.doc', myfile.reallyfinal.doc', myfile.finalfinal.doc')

The end goal isn’t a system that knows everything. I’d argue a system that can learn from context but has very little knowledge about the world would be much more interesting than our current LLMs.

At the risk of sounding unintentionally self congratulatory:

Once sober for years, the largest external before and after observation was the difference in emotional lability between people who drink regularly and anyone else. I'm not talking about only when drinking, but rather at any time.

One of the darkest lies that alcohol tells is that its effects are limited to when it is being consumed. Instead, consider how strong its effects are when one consumes it. The strength of that effect is related to the strength of the all-the-time effect on one's brain. We can't stimulate GABA to that degree, and whatever else it does, and not expect it to have effects on, say, anger and general emotional control in the interstitial periods between drinking.

Regaining one's fine emotional control, after a long-time regular drinking habit, is also a process of years that are mined with danger like excessive anxiety. If years of drinking matches a person's profile, they might seek the help of a physician to help the long-term sobriety adjustment process. Even if one doesn't feel addicted.
Yeah this sounds like a misconfiguration. We've already forgotten that native apps tend to require a bit more fine control on how they use resources, all in the name of the cult of portability.
And it'd be nice to get the same list of complaints about incidents with human drivers for comparison.

> Youtube is generally a better source for recipes

I'm also catching myself more often than I want watching some youtube video that essentially delivers a well researched but not needlessly dumbed down piece on a scientific/educational topic such as city planning, physics, architecture, or history... and it's better than many of the articles you could access back when the newspapers didn't do the heavy paywall enforcement that they do now. Nowadays, newspapers are even less accessible. It's amazing that videos fare better here. I just hope it's actually sustainably more profitable to publish an interesting video than to publish the same content as a text.

Oh BS. I'm sure you're aware that when trains were first introduced some jurisdictions required that the train be preceded by someone waving a red flag.

Sorry, I'm just using the dictionary definition of "straightforward," which is "easy to do or understand." I'm also a lawyer, and no lawyer on Earth would call a Hollywood-accounting case straightforward.

It doesn't have code completion. You can install it as a feature, but vim itself doesn't have that feature. There needs to be a law for someone either flat out lying or not knowing what they're talking about because godwin's law doesn't apply here.

Additionally installing these features on vim is a nightmare for various reasons. It can be done, and I've done it, but the experience is not as good as the more clunkier GUI IDEs. I'm all for a TUI IDE if the experience was as automated or seamless as jetbrains or M$, but such a app doesn't exist yet.

There are other drivers behind domestic violence, some of which compound with alcohol as people use alcohol as a sort of self treatment - mostly unemployment, low-wage environment, high-stress work environments and a lack of access to mental health care. These three can be fixed or at least be controlled by decent minimum wage laws, workplace safety/worker protection regulation, and by investing into mental health care.

Another big part, particularly in rural/conservative areas or in young people scooping up the propaganda of Andrew Tate and his ilk by the mouthful, are toxic masculinity ideals... but honestly I don't have an idea how to fight that kind of ideology other than getting the mouthpieces deplatformed and arrested.

Finishing homework before a deadline is a great idea, everyone agrees, and it'll cause career issues if your grades slip too much. However, most people still struggle to motivate themselves to do it. Useless.

A better tip is to at least review or read boring work everyday until it's done. Tasks are easier to start if you planned them the day before and don't need to think to start.
It's not a complicated or even malicious "coverup". They hear an anomalous sound, but don't know with 100% certainty that it's came from the lost sub.

This is hilariously ignorant because thats actually what happened with cars when they were first introduced. Amazing tech that caused so much societal issues that all kinds of laws and regulations came into effect.
Uber has been and continues to be just as egregious in SF. I’ve been hit by two Ubers, both when I was in the crosswalk, and one incident caused me a $500 loss. There are Uber Eats double-parkers who stand in queues all night long making key roads unsafe or impassible. I’ve been in an Uber where the driver was literally trying to brake-check and cause rear-enders and he wouldn’t let me get out until I opened the door while the car was in motion. I’ve messaged Uber support dozens of times and they of course do nothing.

Uber is clearly a different problem, but a much bigger one in the macro.
> when recipes are all you have to share

Also note that recipes as a list of ingredients and then some instructions aren't copyrightable. The cooking sites add all that additional fluff to make the content copyrighted.

As an interesting thought experiment, would an LLM trained on cooking site data conflate all the content as part of the recipe, and thus when prompted to create a recipe for chocolate cake, include all kinds of secondary fluff in the response? Things like fish-shaped volatile organic compounds and sediment-shaped sediment, perhaps?

Ask HN: What tool(s) do you use to prioritize R&D projects in your company?
Trying to figure out if there are any off-the-shelf online tools that ranks or prioritizes R&D projects (software and/or hardware), based on some business case (e.g., ROI, alignment to overall company strategy, and so on). We've been using Excel, which is great, but becoming quite unwieldy. Any suggestions?
A good case for toe socks here -- unfortunately I don't have the separated toes needed to wear them! I'm not entirely sure how common it is (I'm only aware of myself and my grandfather having this), but the webbing between some of my toes extends far up the toes, kind of like a duck's foot. Toe socks and those toe shoes are out, I'm afraid.
Because a lot of jobs are ridiculously inefficient. The efficiency gains make things (and money) move faster. Faster movement of goods, services, and money makes GDP grow.

I'll install and try this as the interactive suggestions look nice (finally, software that can RTFM for me - nice! :) , however, from your description of the purpose of login, couldn't the same effect be gained by locally creating a unique (for warp interaction) ssh key that preserves privacy and yet allows developers to securely communicate by sharing their public keys. A similar process might offer more comfort in deciding to allow the telemetry.

> It's a big difference

It is! And there is absolutely a role for strongly typed languages.

> But advocating its use for anything important hasn't been viable for decades except for legacy reasons.

We entirely disagree here.

The big benefit of more stringent languages is that they require less effort on the part of the programmer to ensure safety and correctness. This is of great value -- perhaps even indispensable -- in certain contexts. For instance, if the programming team is large, or if the company wants to hire less experienced developers, or if the company wants to keep up a very high velocity.

But those are economic arguments. It's different than asserting that a given language is simple too dangerous to use under any circumstance. I think that assertion is entirely unsupportable.
Relax the hyperbole (e.g. s/don't have a single chance/have a much smaller chance/), and it no longer requires that.
Basing anything on one social experiment is not wise.

“The weight of scientific evidence shows these programs do not help young people delay initiation of sexual intercourse,” says co-author John Santelli, professor of Population and Family Health at the Mailman School. “While abstinence is theoretically effective, in actual practice, intentions to abstain from sexual activity often fail. These programs simply do not prepare young people to avoid unwanted pregnancies or sexually transmitted diseases.” [0][1]

Further, abstinence only sex education is positively correlated with teenage pregnancy rates

"After accounting for other factors, the national data show that the incidence of teenage pregnancies and births remain positively correlated with the degree of abstinence education across states: The more strongly abstinence is emphasized in state laws and policies, the higher the average teenage pregnancy and birth rate. "[2]

Informing youth about the realistic outcomes of actions, whether its sex or taking drugs, is going to be a lot more effective than just telling them not to do it.

Was anyone surprised they didn't develop a responsible drinking culture while alcohol was banned?
Absolutely. As a former smoker, that ban has probably done a lot more good than people realize - not just to prevent people from picking up the habit but also helping smokers quit.

Addicts develop a whole suite of triggers that they have to suffer through when they quit, ranging from a specific freeway exit on their commute to literally just seeing a carton or someone smoking. Each trigger is an opportunity to relapse and just having less of them, especially when first quitting, is a huge deal.

Nowadays, even showing someone smoking in movies or on TV is taboo. I think there'd be a revolt if we tried to ban alcohol on screen completely but IMO that's the next step after banning advertising. Seeing someone enjoy a drink on TV is one hell of a trigger.

Teacher quota? Wut?

This off-the-wall shit is part of why people leave teaching. Being constantly criticized by people living in a fictional world, and blamed for tons of things that are simply made-up or that you had no say in, gets old.

Teachers are getting to be in short supply because people aren't choosing the job, because it's kinda shit in much of the country (and it's extremely shit in a whole lot of districts). It's not as if there's a strictly limited set of residency slots strangling supply, like in medicine. Not enough people want to do it, given the offer on the table. That's the whole story.

> Stands to reason that where there is more freedom for anyone to be a teacher that the pay would trend lower. Supply and demand, as usual.

Some of the places with very lax standards for becoming a teacher are nonetheless struggling to fill positions. The standards aren't the problem, the overall deal—work conditions, stress, pay, seeing the profession demonized by talking heads on TV and your own neighbors—is just not good enough to get people to sign on the dotted line. You're not going to get more people signing up to teach who you'd like to have teaching without making the deal better—it's got nothing to do with quotas or whatever.

You're welcome to find some sources that support your assertion. All the research on the matter disagrees with you though.
LLMs are incredible tools, but they're just that - tools. They're not a replacement for human judgment. Heck, one of the things you have to judge is how accurate the answer is. The LLM can't assess that - as you note it has unfailing confidence in reporting the wrong information.

What I have found, and I've been using Bard over ChatGPT because Bard seems to be a bit smarter at first glance, is these tools are powerful but limited. They can augment a workforce but only a fool, soon to go out of business, would use them to replace a workforce.
Correlation is not necessarily causation. Important to consider socioeconomic factors. Those populations are also often the most vulnerable and disadvantaged.

Maybe, but it's not as though that sentiment comes out of nowhere. If we compare the general consensus on the success of Prohibition vs, say, the campaign against drunk driving in the 80s and 90s, it's easy to feel quite cautious about the wisdom of bans in the area of substance addiction/abuse. Of course, the circumstances and environment are quite different in this case than Prohibition, so there's still plenty of unknowns, but still.
