Yeah, it's basically just a conspiracy theorist's screed, poorly disguised as some kind of "COINTELPRO training manual". This part tells you the person's mindset:

> A second highly effective technique (which you can see in operation all the time at www.abovetopsecret.com) is 'consensus cracking.' To develop a consensus crack, the following technique is used. Under the guise of a fake account a posting is made which looks legitimate and is towards the truth is made - but the critical point is that it has a VERY WEAK PREMISE without substantive proof to back the posting.

Someone on a conspiracy forum posting a weak argument? Obviously that's just more proof of the conspiracy!

Jimmy Carter UFO Incident
All of these sound weird to me—most non-stupid (hello 802.2) protocols and hardware are going to have natural-aligned structure fields, so basically any mainstream (8-bit-byte, two’s complement, etc.) ABI is going to lay them out the same way, packed or not.

As for RV64 and Arm64, the layout rules for same-size scalar types in their common ABIs are outright identical aren’t they?

We’re (most of us) a long way away from the time where each DOS compiler had its own opinions on whether long double should be 8-, 16-, 32-, or 64-bit aligned and 80 or 128 bits long.

> US Copyright Office has stated unequivocally that AI works cannot be copyrighted, or otherwise protected legally.

The “or otherwise legally protected" piece is outright falss (and would be out of their scope of competence if true), the other part is true but potentially misleading (a work cannot be protected to the extent that AI, and not the human user, “determines the expressive elements of the work”, but a work made with some use of AI where the human user does that can be protected to the extent of the human contribution.)

The duty to disclose elements that are created by generative AI in the same guidance is going to prove unworkable, too, as generative AI is increasingly embedded into toolchains with other features and not sharply distinguished, and with nontrivial workflows.
Yes, I have a driver's license and bank card. Do you not have ANY form of identification? How do you do things that require it?
> The box knows I slammed on the brakes. Does it know the schmuck in the next lane dove in front of me?

It doesn't really matter. You are still incentivized financially by the insurance company to slam on the brakes to avoid accidents.

> Will fender-benders go up because drivers have been disincentivized against hard stops to the point where they risk tighter and tighter spacing and go too far?

The way this is being interpreted is as if people will respond to an extreme degree to any incentive whatsoever, and they will choose the worst response to that incentive automatically. Your insurance rates will not double because you slammed on the brakes once. And people are probably more likely to learn to drive with better spacing so they don't have to frequently slam on the brakes, as opposed to playing a game of chicken trying to avoid having the insurance system know they once had to press the brake pedal hard once.

Tell HN: 1Password 8.10.8 update corrupted data
Saw there was an update for 1Password on Mac, and accepted the update. After it restarted, and I logged in, a banner said:

"Some changes could not be synced with your other devices. View Offline Items"

Clicking on View Offline Items crashed the app a few times, but eventually after some tries now shows Offline Items.

I have no other devices and there are now a number of (old) items in the Offline Items section. That section did not exist (for me) before.

These are logins created months ago, so I wonder if they were never synced, or what is broken now. In any case, it seems its gotten itself into a bad state and cannot sync properly any more.
I definitely did not say that! I was just answering GP's question with a simple fact and link.
Sure the APIs are gone, but you can still compile the code and include the libraries from those APIs and still run the dang thing. Also, the removal of those APIs was done in an extremely responsible manner with long periods of deprecation. Most of those APIs were deprecated in Java 5 anyways.
I agree that the goals and means to get to them are fuzzy and it feels frustrating at times, and things like affirmative action felt like trying to make two wrongs equal a right. But it also feels shitty and callous to say "Sorry about the whole segregation thing, hopefully everything evens out in a few hundred years or so.."

I think the hard part is that "Equality of Opportunity" is either so strictly defined that it is pointless, or it very quickly becomes really squishy and feels like "Equality of Outcome".

Most college applicants today are going to be something like 2 - 4 generations removed from official, legally sanctioned segregation (a situation I think most people would agree doesn't count as equality of opportunity). Would you argue that the average white student and average black student have equality of opportunity today?

Japan similarly has been reluctant to re-militarize. The essential question is whether they can now see change is required.

Our super power role isn't good for America either (I'm American). We spent too time in the middle east protecting oil, and committed ourselves to stupid wars in Iraq under Bush. Guntanimo Bay and special extradition are grave American errors. I am happy to see that through energy independence we can delink ourselves from the middle east.

I am heartened too see new applicants to Nato, which is a defensive force only.

Going forward neither European weakness nor American habit of leading should play us into anything other than strategic threats namely China. We have to learn to say no.

Once nato partners have a problem on their border we need to compose better and strengthen each other.

I'm inclined to agree: better to temporarily prioritize China over getting better European cooperation if push comes to shove. We can't own European risk more than it can itself.

High schools in Georgia have had segregated proms as recently as 2019 (and possibly since then too), either formally, up to 2012, or informally (one county had schools that had a prom that was open and then a "white prom" which didn't specify attendance requirements, but I'll leave it as an exercise for the reader as to who was welcome where.

I've to be honest, when I had fever taking an hot shower really helped me cure the symptoms of fever for at least an hour and subsequently feeling less feverish.

Destin from smarter energy day is going to lose his shit!
The detector is made of thousands of light sensors arranged in a a km-scale 3D grid. When a neutrino interaction causes a flash of light inside this volume, multiple sensors detect the photons with nanosecond-level time resolution. So a 3D map can be made of where the light started and how it moved over time.

For a macroscale analogue, imagine a large 3D grid of microphones all recording sound. If you fired a cannon from inside this grid and looked at the waveforms from all the microphones, you could work out where the cannon was, and also form a pretty good guess of what direction it was pointed.

Ask HN: How long do I wait before applying again?
I'm Canadian, about 3 years out of my undergrad degree, and looking for a new job. I think I've applied to every shop in my city without luck. It's getting hard for me to find openings at companies that I haven't applied to yet.

Should I wait before applying to other openings at the companies I've been rejected from, and if so, for how long?

The assumption is that engagement = good for business. I personally believe it isn't, as I've personally quit all social networks (notwithstanding HN and a few private communities) because they made me addicted and unhappy. Unhappy users stay because they're addicted, and a part of them quits. Happy users stay because they want to.

Not making people unhappy is good for business. Or at least I hope it is...
I don't know, but I wrote nearly 3000 words on the last book review I did. I'd say I spend less time than 90 minutes per chapter. I'm also sharing the reviews, which I find the most rewarding part.
One issue is there's infinite metrics to measure outcome, and any measurement you choose will have certain groups excel in compared to others. Once we achieve equality in a certain metric we will always have new ones to work on essentially forever. This may be a good goal for people/institutions but it can't contribute to discrimination being indefinite in scope.

Another issue is we're talking about group level outcomes here - which means we're already accepting that there will be biases in measurements, otherwise the group wouldn't be a 'group' (unless it's literally just skin color which is - a pretty arbitrary/racist way to group people all else being equal).

> On the other hand Google wants all the articles for free, but doesn't have any motivation to share the users or ad impressions they attract.

AFAIK Google doesn't show ads on Google News, they don't show ads on news queries, and they send the users to the news site via the link. There is no revenue to share, and the users are being shared to the extent that is possible given they're humans who have free will and will decide themselves which articles to read and which not.

> Google can index the articles independently of serving their entirety to
visitors

I don't know what you're referring to here. AMP? The news site has to do extra work to enable AMP, and the entire point of AMP was always the cache. (But the revenue from the ads on the AMP page goes to the publication, not to Google). The search cache? The news site can opt out. The snippet? They can opt out. Images? I'm pretty sure they actually have to opt in for that, by emitting specific meta tags. The title? That is mandatory, but for the simple reason that you have to give the searcher something or they won't click through.
I would encourage authors to update README with more representative examples.

You must be an AI hallucination, because there's no humanity or facts in you comment.

Don't worry, I'm perfectly human. If you want to refute the standpoint that the death of a young child is worse than the death of an adult bring arguments. Proof by insistence and ad hominem remarks are not arguments.

There were/are far too many Covid deaths because of a lack of mitigation measures in care homes, they told us that children don't die of Covid, neither do they spread it and kept schools open (even here on this website they want schools open even though that is the place where Covid is spread between families) and now they are even throwing the mask mandate out in hospitals, where the sick people are. There's admittedly a bit of self interest here, Covid in my age bracket is not advisable.

But yes, the government told us that 1 % CFR is acceptable. Please direct your ire against the government. I'm just a bot repeating government propaganda.

Take a sheet of elastic material, like a balloon, but square. Suspend the corners in clamps on posts so that it’s “perfectly” flat. Draw a line that is the shortest distance between two points on the material: it will be a “straight” line like what you learnt in geometry class. Now place a marble in the center of the sheet and let it stretch the sheet. Now draw the shortest possible line connecting these two points: it will curve (and unless you chose by coincidence) it will likely not overlap with the first line: the “shortest distance” between the points has changed.

There’s another aspect to this: the expansion coefficient. One such model is that the coefficient depends only on time: as time passes, distances increase. To model this, draw the same line on the flat sheet of material, then expand it uniformly in all directions. The distance is still a straight line, but the line is longer after the expansion.

Interesting analogy. I feel like I talk and think faster when I'm drunk but am also more focused and can hold less in my mind. I'm wondering if it's because I'm switching into single threaded mode instead of multi-threaded mode, and that single thread is actually faster, but more limited.

This sounds like wishful thinking. Do you have any evidence to support this claim? “Don’t worry, just trash it and it’ll probably get sorted in Mexico” doesn’t inspire confidence.

> In another vein, one could make the argument that the precarious thing is to tie one's intrinsic motivations -- those little devils inside of us -- onto a "job."

Well said. I suppose it does take more energy, effort and soul really, to constantly decouple one's job from identity and worth. That one's internal values _ought_ to permeate through one's life "authentically" is certainly easier said than done.

Thanks again for responding in earnest. I'm convinced lol.

What’s your current state of soberness?
I prefer my husband's company when he's a bit tired because when he's well rested he can be "too much" -- his energy level, his anxiousness, his sense of humor, are all amplified, sometimes to an annoying degree.

I've noticed this with other guys that just need to chill out a bit when socializing -- especially tech folks.

It's more about energy level than smartness.

No need to be hungover -- maybe just relax a bit, take things slower, talk less, go on fewer (or no) tangents, etc., and you might achieve the same result.

That’s fair, I think I strawmanned you a bit - I know you’re not arguing that taking a creative approach to software will automatically add value.

To your point about Google, that approach did lead to gmail, but also many abandoned projects like Buzz and Reader that led to Google’s infamous reputation for canceling products.

My original point remains: I think the business requirements and goals should inform the culture and hiring processes of a company. If you don’t need to deviate from the playbook to get things done, why should you? And not every developer wants to deviate from the playbook either, some prefer stable predictable work - while I’m not personally in that camp I think it’s not a moral failing, doing unpredictable things is more stressful as more things can go wrong, you might have to work more or suffer the consequences of delays/starting over, etc.

If you’re a bank, or a web consultancy, you want boring and predictable solutions. Conversely if you’re OpenAi you want people willing to reason from first principles and invent crazy new things because you’re shipping cutting edge technology at massive scale - and I think they’re doing that. So I guess I’m left wondering where exactly you think opportunities are being left on the table due to overly rote software development practices that would be improved by creativity?
