Occupy Wall Street was movement that scared the hell out of elites, and tracking of what happened with the movement and afterwards shows how it was dismantled and suppressed afterwards.

At later stages the Occupy movement was infiltrated by 'other' causes camps. The 'identity' focus causes became vocal within - the early days of social justice causes. That is something you need to avoid like plague to run successful movement - lack of direction, due to multiple divergent goals. It caused people to loose interest as movement was going everywhere and nowhere. Lets bring up Solidarity, they had leaders and quickly drafted what they want and did not stray from that path. If solidarity wanted democratic poland and strengthening ties with catholic church and establishment of diplomatic ties with africa and banning of military production... it would be hard to get all people behind all of the goals and it would be hard to achieve all those goals. I digress... back to occupy.

Since then media created new fault lines for populous to fight over. Straight man vs the world, men vs women, whites oppressing non-whites, police vs blacks, can trans people use toilets and so on and on. We are bombarded by those narratives constantly. The moment one fades next one takes place.

Those are very easy to instigate as all of them are based primary on emotions - whatever the factual background of the issue is.

Occupy Wall Street and future movements like that need to be based on facts and logic to expose all of the systems that siphon wealth up into unproductive upper class. It takes effort to expose those complex systems and educate people about it to the point where they want to change it.

In contrast to: police kills people, here is a video example, now come protest against injustice. Nothing really changes as nobody is doing anything about the underlying systems that create those outcomes... and look new injustice... we need to protest that now.

I don't have any evidence but I find it very coincidental what happened with Occupy and thereafter, to not be suspicious if people targeted by Occupy did not do anything about it.
Whenever I see houses cheek-to-jowl like that, I wonder "why not just get an apartment or condo?" Those houses seem to have most of the disadvantages of apartment/condo living without the advantages.
I would say yes, a society where people study what excites them is a desirable thing. Totally incompatibile with reality nowadays it seems but desirable nonetheless. In other words, I'd like to live in a world where people can follow their passion and don't have to worry about paying their medical bills. I think that makes for a more interesting society.
This is just so funny to me. Google has to have the absolute worst PR for any company I've ever seen to make this happen. Somehow, they've duped the general public (at least on HN) into believing they insert the ads into videos. All they need to do is run a marketing campaign about how as a content creator you get to decide when ads play, whether they're unskippable, and how many ads to place in your video. Blast that all over the internet so people realize that the ads in videos are not there because of YT (unless that channel has < 1K subs and < 4K watch hours, then that's definitely YT).

Leave angry comments on the videos you watch and tell the creators your pissed at them for how many ads they place. This is one area YT gives almost full autonomy to the creator. They can choose everything except which ads get played.
The board probably forced him to do it
None of those pieces are tied to the Red Hat distros, and Red Hat being involved seems to me to be the fundamental issue. They're ever altering the deal they have with their community. Why not join a community that's constituted in a way where no single commercial party can effectively control everything?
Yep, for sure. Not a Jira fan :)

Yes, but the techniques are typically close guarded secrets, to keep the antagonists guessing.
This may surprise you but large CPU buyers go to Intel and ask for ISA extensions, and Intel implements them. This is how BMI came to exist. The fact that you do not see these instructions exploited by your vanilla Debian box says nothing about warehouse-scale datacenter operators.
> if MIT rejected applicants with better profiles because of the URM checkbox, in some sense they didn't deserve to get in

"better" is subjective and imo anyone who goes on to succeed at the school is as good as the next person; there are lots of other equally arbitrary decisions that go into college admissions

There's definitely lots of that too, especially guitars and synth, but it's typically aesthetic and both sounds (and looks) like it belongs in the track
Maybe? Every gas pump I've gone to in the past half decade has had a TV playing ads at me. So at least part of the oil company ecosystem has an ad component.
watch any video of rescue efforts in modern built areas. Some multi-story buildings with the right structure are fine, people with two story houses sit on their roofs, meanwhile, most cars go for a ride in the direction of the flow.. etc.
Evolutionary algorithms are 'like' evolution because they have some form of selection pressure.

The incremental improvements of the Wright Brothers airplane was 'like' evolution. The design 'evolved' in response to selection for something that would remain airborne in a wind tunnel, and control well without crashing. The Wright Brothers flying machine evolved in a manner similar to life, so presto: it must be exactly like life in all other aspects! We should fear the day when these airplanes take over the puny humans, because they can travel in the sky at hundreds of miles an hour!

You see how stupid that sounds?

>They've been doing that for at least long enough for humans born at the same time to be allowed to drink in Texas.

There exists self modifying malware. This has not reached the level of malware that can reinvent itself to target new machines and new operating systems versions without prompting and design work from the hacker. If it did, that would be far more impressive than what LLMs are doing.
In the US both you and your indigenous/mixed peers would be declared Latino and receive equal benefits of affirmative action.

In fact, a blue eyes, blonde hair white European from Argentina would be given preference over an Indian or Thai individual.
I switched from gmail for my domain a couple years back and am similarly happy. The switch was incredibly easy - Fastmail imports everything for you - and the service has been rock solid and easy to use since. Strongly recommend them.
And if you're using it primarily as web browser you can get a Chromebook that will do the job for a fraction of the cost.
Intelligence is hard enough to define already, but consider that human intelligence can only be evaluated inasmuch as it allows its holder to successfully satisfy his or her own interests and purposes in the current environment and circumstances. That implies of course having interests and purposeful objectives.

Are you+ChatGPT more intelligent than I am by myself? Almost certainly. You have extended your abilities to fulfill your purposes, and can demonstrably do so better than I can.

However, is ChatGPT itself more intelligent than I am? Well, what are ChatGPT's purposes and objectives? What is its environment? What does ChatGPT want, so we can measure its ability to achieve it?
That's simply not true. All Debian releases have been LTS since 2014, for the following architectures : i386, amd64, armhf and arm64.

All Debian releases get 1 year of full updates after the new release, and at least 5 years of updates in total from their initial publication.
keep in mind that several videos do have sponsored segments so again you can't get away from that without sponsorblock
RSS and Atom are 2 different formats.

Your confusion probably comes from the fact that RSS is older, so it's sometimes used as the name of the functionality but it's improper. They're 2 different formats.
So I think there are a few issues. First off, this sort of approach _is_ cheaper than using an architect. So if for some reason you really want a 6000sqft house this is absolutely the budget option (of course, you then end up with massive rooms that make little sense; also a lot of examples of those on the site).

But also, some people just want what they want, no matter how absurd it might look to, well, basically everyone.

> Is that what happened here, or is it some sort of "developer" that has tried to make a disneyland looking thing to match what they already sold a buyer with sketches in a catalog?

No architect was involved in most of these.

If it's just about people struggling with their finances today, why not forgive any type of debt? Money is fungible after all. Suppose a grad has a net debt because they routinely spend more than they earn and like to go on all inclusive destination vacations every year. Now suppose you have someone who didn't take out student loans but had some unfortunate life circumstances that caused them to be in the same amount of debt.

Forgiving either person's debt will improve each one's finances, but won't affect whether they've gone to college in the past.

Edit: in case it wasn't obvious, the question is rhetorical. I'm not advocating for forgiving any kind of debt.
Unfortunately in general, but fortunately in this one particular very specific case race is very correlated to lots of measurable things in America. So, I think colleges will easily succeed in promoting diversity while having ostensibly race-blind admissions policies.

The Supreme Court can I guess try to go case-by-case banning metrics. This stupid whack-a-mole game will look pathetic on their part and burn up whatever tiny bit of institutional legitimacy they have left, but at least they’ll probably fail.
I still don't see why this is a problem. Single-header dependencies are cute but blow up compile times, and most of the world needs CMake/Meson/Autotools anyways so there's not an added cost to using it for your own projects.

Similarly I don't really understand why you want one toolchain for a multi-language project. It's not that useful or convenient since it's going to need to be orchestrated with a buildsystem somehow.

Like with Rust, you probably only have a build.rs file. It invokes a separate (possibly multiple) toolchains. Or with CMake. A simple project has a single CMakeLists.txt that can invoke any number of toolchains. I don't see why zig can't do that with a build.zig file, or why it matters.
It's really not that hard. Couch-to-5k (aka C25K) if searched has a number of websites that are the top results and literally has a plan on the main page.

It's faster to just search for "C25K" than type out a chatGPT prompt and you dont have to trust a bot
We have. If you are, say, trying to train a sheepdog to herd sheep, these new foods and games and drugs will be of little use compared to the tried and true methods.
Please don't dissuade people from conversing over things here based on a class divide. Catharsis is nice, wealthy self-righteousness is more than infuriating, but please dont tell other people not to talk to each other. I like that, as a platform, HN fosters nuance.
You just perfectly illustrated why people keep disagreeing about this.

You can cook a lot of things on a "non stick" telfon pan without an oil or fat.

You can cook far fewer things on a "non stick" cast iron without an oil or fat.

But the cast iron crowd will gaslight the rest of us, and claim that we are just seasoning it wrong but otherwise it is indistinguishable and only superior.

It's like manual transmission.
My Mac Mini built by Apple without using BootCamp was able to run Windows 7 just by sticking a DVD in.

How much more all encompassing can you get than that.

I assure that Apple never went out of its way to release firmware for the 1st gen Intel Mac Mini so it could work with Windows 7.

Windows 7 supported all of my Mac hardware - Bluetooth, gigabit Ethernet, wifi, and it found the IR sensor for the remote. I never tried to use it.

Even before that, I had more obscure x86 hardware - a 486DX/2-66Mhz “DOS Compatibility Card” for my old Mac that came with Windows 3.1 and had a built in Soundblaster card. I was able to our Windows 95 on it without any updated drivers from Apple.
Google controls the vast majority of the "user agents" on the internet, and I suspect Manifest v3 has some role to play in this.
I must admit, I was unaware they've been operational for such an extensive period! Given their valuable service, I'm confident they will persist for another two decades. There's an undeniable need for email services that are independent and not subject to the whims of major corporations like Microsoft or Google.
> The use of VPNs in China can provide individuals access to the international internet, but in China, it can be a potential legal risk. In 2017, the Chinese government declared all unauthorized VPN services to be illegal. An example of the use of this punishment is Vera Zhou, a student at the University of Washington, who, when visiting her Hui parents in Xinjiang, China, used a VPN to access her school homework. She was arrested and sent to a Xinjiang internment camp from October 2017 until March 2018, followed by house arrest after her release. She was not able to return to the US until September 2019.

Use of VPNs is... universal... among middle-to-upper-class Chinese. This is obviously not an example of legal risk associated with using a VPN. Rather, it's an example of a punishment coming down on someone who was targeted for other reasons.

An immediate implication is that, if you repealed all the laws against VPNs, nothing about anything would change.
Money aside, coming from a card board box this would be nice, but coming from a normal house and going into this would be nice but every morning/entry back you would greet yourself first thing with “WTF”, or “need to find a different home and sell this”
That's not true at all. There are many advertisements/sponsorships within large YouTube creator channels now. It's regularly 1min or more in every 10min of video. I don't mind so much, because they are skippable and since it's the creators themselves rather than totally unrelated garbage.
Okay then keep the AI in boxes and out of society.

Notice that people perked up and started caring about AI development primarily when these were introduced to the public? Could it be that the public has a legitimate stake in new technologies that are introduced to it?

"It seems like these days there are a hundred people dumping chemicals into rivers and millions more who are saying 'don't dump chemicals into the rivers.' We don't need em! If you aren't dumping chemicals into rivers then it's best not to shove yourself into the conversation at all."
I am surprised to see this case had standing given the claim that financial harm was had due to only receiving $10,000 in relief instead of the full $20,000 by a borrower. Does anyone have better legal insight that can explain to me why the case was ruled on at all?
Because when we reached the limit of what we could do with paraffin, we moved onto other methods of producing heat. Now we make superheated balls of plasma as hot as the sun using deuterium, tritium, lasers and magnets.
Because it's a lot easier and a lot more fun to be Bruce Wayne as opposed to Batman.

And perhaps that's for the best, sometimes when well-meaning billionaires try new things we just end up with wacky dystopian shit at our expense, like Munger Hall :
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KXd7Y3HvUj4

I'd rather give billionaires the option to waste their money on yachts and meaningless trips to orbit, or give money to charity, than force that largely insecure, incompetent demographic into actual leadership positions. Would be like handing a machine gun to a pissed off chimp that just had its mate stolen.

Case in point, look at the account holders of Silicon Valley Bank who had essentially their entire corporate cash reserves, billions collectively, at that one institution. Frankly they all should have been wiped out down to the FDIC limit for such foolishness, but I'm sure as most rich people do they have a mountain of excuses. These people are largely not competent, they took stupid risks and got lucky, but the same stupidity that made them take the risks tends to stick around after they get lucky. Steve Jobs himself had the good fortune to get the rare CURABLE variety of pancreatic cancer, detected early no less, and he turned down standard treatment in favor of some new-age juice-diet bullshit. His stupidity cost him his life, and all the wealth in the world meant nothing. Thank God he never thought to open up a hospital based on his beliefs.
Biden's legal justification for student debt forgiveness was the 2003 Hero's Act, which allowed the Secretary of Education to discharge student loans debt in times of national emergency (like a Pandemic).

Trump cited this enabling law when he halted student loan payments.

The Supreme Court, invented a new legal theory called the "major questions doctrine" they self-cited as justification to end this policy. The Supreme Court is not a King either, though clearly they want to be.

It sometimes feel like an unspoken taboo, but windows tablets are a thing. Or Chromebooks if there is a strong need for mobile app support.
Because my work wont buy me one. The iPads are mostly used for reading music. A laptop would suck for that.
I did, and enjoyed it as a good pop-sci outreach video, and do not fault it given that's what it is. The lim v->c analysis is standard and well-presented, but his conclusion about photons' time is liable to confuse people (including other physicists who aren't relativists). I refer you to my comment elsewhere in this thread <https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36537015> which has a paragraph about this video (your link having partially motivated my comment), and which explains that it is common for relativists to use affine time for massless particles.
Would you mind linking it here? HN seems like one of the bastions of free speech, I don't frequent reddit much but I wonder what shenanigans are up there, have seen some wild shit with even companies -stealing- subreddits from the creators lmao
you should see how some real estate offices operate in korea. i guess because housing is seen as such an investment in some hot areas the offices literally just put the price with the square footage, zero photos. maybe a "renovated" note if it has new wallpaper.

completely baffling and infuriating to me as you have no way of knowing what you're looking at. easiest job in the world here.
Sure, it just doesn’t have the health disadvantages of the alternatives. It might even be good for you.
Atom is slightly better than RSS, but didn't brought enough improvements to kill RSS.
I can understand your concern. Thankfully we have no way of accessing any PII from within an embedded context - all the agent knows is its own MAC/IP addresses etc.
If you're talking about fflush() from the C standard libray, fflush() doesn't write to disk. It pushes writes from the FILE's buffer to the kernel and drops any read data that has been cached. The C standard library doesn't really provide you with all the tools needed to commit writes to disk fully.
Imagine using a flick of your wrist to create a traveling transverse square wave in a string vs. in a long metal dowel. It's actually not so hard to create a smooth sinusoidal wave in a metal dowel. (It will be long wavelength, but it will be easily visible if you put your eye near one end and look down it.) But it would be impossible for you to make a square wave.
As you become more intelligent the impact of unpredictability decreases. That's kind of baked in the definition of intelligence.

Intelligent AI would surely do better in your situation than a human trying to source the image processing ASICs. That's all that matters, that it executes better, even if eventually it still fails.
And what about companies like 3M who don't inherently focus on MVP and instead significantly invest in products that are targetted for humans? Not favouring growth at all costs.

Yes, a lot of "new"/"modern" companies that have shiny balance sheets with the colour black used, and not red, follow as you attribe. But there are plenty whom do not.
I have mixed feelings about student loan relief.

However, I find it super interesting hearing people talk about how terrible high inflation or high interest rates for loans/mortgages are today. All while student loan interest rates have been higher for decades.
Yeah, it's such an obvious use case and so limiting!
College graduates on average have higher lifetime earnings than non-college graduates, and inherently have an advantage over non-graduates in a competitive job market:

https://www.ssa.gov/policy/docs/research-summaries/education...

And the people taking these loans out aren't poor:

https://www.brookings.edu/articles/who-owes-the-most-in-stud...

>Recently released data from the Federal Reserve’s Survey of Consumer Finances confirm that upper-income households account for a disproportionate share of student loan debt—and an even larger share of monthly out-of-pocket student debt payments.

>The highest-income 40 percent of households (those with incomes above $74,000) owe almost 60 percent of the outstanding education debt and make almost three-quarters of the payments. The lowest-income 40 percent of households hold just under 20 percent of the outstanding debt and make only 10 percent of the payments. It should be no surprise that higher-income households owe more student debt than others. Students

So it's unclear to me why these people in particular deserve debt relief, especially when you consider the non-graduates, who are at a marked competitive disadvantage, and have debt of their own, will indirectly be subsidizing it. The "so they can finally afford to buy a home" meme would make more sense if the non-graduates had an easier time buying a home, yet they're even less likely to be able to afford a home:

The college-educated now form a powerful voting block, one that was crucial to Biden's victory:

https://www.nytimes.com/2021/09/08/us/politics/how-college-g...

and this whole movement feels like privileged, upwardly-mobile people voting themselves a handout they don't deserve, with money that could be much better spent helping actual poor people make ends meet
I think they're using that statement as an indication of the average consumer's behavior, not necessarily their own. In fact, their very next sentence makes it clear that they aren't just swallowing the official line wholesale.

Maybe you should go see a doctor about that knee-jerk problem.
