Here's a thought, maybe Red Hat was being honest when they said that they were not under an obligation to make it easy for rebuilders, and that's it? Maybe they weren't out to immediately kill the clones because they know that they can't? We have actually heard very little communication from Red Hat most of it has been speculation from people on what they might or could do, but as you point out there are ways around the changes Red Hat made.

Honestly this from this post Rocky conflicts with the "RHEL is closed source/proprietary/paywalled" narrative that people are trying to push. If RHEL was truly any of those things Rocky wouldn't have been able to continue on, but they were able to quickly find a solution, though to me it seems a bit hacky. If Rocky is pulling packages from the supposedly untested, beta of RHEL CentOS Stream, and UBI and some EC2 instance, why would I use that over something that was build cohesively in one place like Stream?
> BART along the same alignment still moves 2x more people than the Bay Bridge does though, which is something to remember as non-users of BART clamor for its defunding.

Any source for that?

For BART numbers:

1. Is it traffic across the bay?

2. Or total traffic?

Edit: Digging up some data, I think it is #2, which seems a weird number to use.

BART total per day: ~400k
Bay Bridge per day: ~200k

Discrimination against Japanese, Chinese, Irish, German, Mexican, Native American and more are not "imaginary harms".

Are we in favor of reparations for every group? Or is it just this one?

Reparation talk is a way to buy votes - nothing more. It's a total non-starter if you dig into how you'd go about it...

We can't pretend like handing people a pile of cash will suddenly solve all the issues the community endures today.
My water heater stopped working a few weeks ago. I told ChatGPT what I was seeing and it told me which part to replace. I had never worked on a water heater before and fixing it was no problem with its instructions.

OTOH, I didn't realize until I got in there that there's only like 3 parts in a water heater so it wasn't as complicated as I imagined but I didn't have its breadth of knowledge.
Speaking for myself, I rarely go to downtown SF now and go out mostly in downtown Oakland these days. The businesses are just as, if not more, vibrant and I have more transit options (BART, bus, BRT, bike) than being forced to take BART across the Bay. Before the pandemic SF downtown had a much more vibrant scene but Oakland has caught up if not exceeded the SF scene. This is just myself though.
I can corroborate this experience. Last time I rode BART, someone lit up a joint while we were in the airtight car under the waters of the San Francisco Bay. The time before that, I had a crazy guy screaming the whole ride.

At the same time, Google is the only entity that could provide the numbers you want to see.

Now it makes sense
There's a lot of discussion about switching to wealth or income as a criterion for diversifying the student body, rather than race or ethnicity. Adding to the blizzard of proposals, here's mine:

The "elite" colleges can take care of themselves. They will figure out how to curate their student body to maintain whatever image they want to project. And they're swimming in money, so let them spend it.

Instead, let's focus our attention and support on the public universities, community colleges, and tech schools. I'd never say that low income students "belong" there, but it's where they have the best chance of success. And every dollar spent at those schools educates more people.

My kids both attended public colleges, and I know plenty of people who have sent their kids to community colleges and trade schools. Those institutions are the true jewels in the crown of higher education.
It can do that for some images, and that's a training mistake.

There's no way it can do that for more than a tiny fraction.

I’ve always thought that issuing free passes to all appropriate taxpayers/residents would be a great way to go. Then you can raise the non pass price to soak those tourists!
Google is a 1.5 trillion dollar advertising company. There simply isn't enough content in the world to monetize to keep Google growing YoY. All companies reach this point. Some glide to a natural equilibrium point (McDonalds, Subway), some cook the books and implode spectacularly (Enron), some oversteer in the other direction and fall down in chunky movements (Meta).
1.045^100 = 81x. That sounds more impressive, as inflation over the last hundred years is only 17x.

If you withdraw at 40 years you only get 30 years worth (lose ten years of interest according to their terms).

I suspect that's strongly correlated to whether those alumni made contributions to the university or not.

I know several children of alumni that were rejected - and their parents hadn't made donations, either.
Just a theory, but white-collar jobs that now offer WFH as a perk probably offered flexible hours as a perk pre-COVID. This is conducive to commuting during off-peak hours.
I would be surprised if there wasn’t some SAAS offering that did this for you.

It’s a CD, so the only risk is the interest penalty for early termination. There’s no principal risk for $250-500k.

Composites are used all the time in applications in which they undergo cyclic compression. So your first thought is one you should have dismissed. You know what else is good in tension but not in compression? Bicycle spokes. And yet...

There are plenty of other potential design flaws. The assertion that fibers are not good in compression is facile.
They're there! AC Transit runs a program called Clipper Start. The problem is, low income folks just don't take advantage of it, and it's (without further study) unclear why. This was identified during the session on fare enforcement and exactly as you say, there's interest in promoting it more heavily and trying to jack up the price on tourists or high-income leisure riders.
GA is as safe as you want to make it for yourself. Most accidents happen because people are in a hurry to get where they're going, so they force an uncertain situation into a bad one. Police heli and medivac are motivated to fly where that would be 'unwise' because people might get hurt otherwise. It runs up the numbers. :/
There's a 10 year interest penalty for early withdrawal.
It's not that uncommon for the CTO of a small startup to personally develop a huge portion of the technology.
Well it can't be ONLY wfh. I think they meant "primarily". But more commuters choosing to drive is impacted by fewer people driving in due to WFH. The traffic was light, so they drove. Now traffic is normal again.
I was wondering the same. Perhaps peak is all about people on fixed schedules like shop assistants amd the like, whereas those jobs that have switched to WFH Havre far mow flexible hours and many were using that flexibility was to avoid peak hours?
The metal pressure vessels are very negatively buoyant. The bathyscaphe Trieste used 32000 gallons of gasoline to achieve positive buoyancy. Modern DSVs use incredibly expensive and fragile syntactic foam.

A CFRP pressure vessel can be naturally positively buoyant, or much closer to it. Titan's dry weight was less than DSV Limiting Factor, despite having much greater internal volume and carrying 3 more people.

Also, being able to load and launch in the water, rather than loading on the deck and needing a human rated crane to launch as most DSVs do, probably saved a lot of money operating Titan.
First off, thank you for the debate. It's what I come to HN for.

Out of interest, of the list in the first table, are there any books that you agree should not be accessible to young people?

I find it interesting that parental pressure, probably heavily influenced by political, cultural and religious leanings, can influence what a library can have in it's inventory.

Should the Quran be available in libraries in Wyoming? Should the Bible be available in libraries in Pakistan?
I work in adtech and yeah if there is a discrepancy the advertiser will 100% contact their account manager about it. Same goes for the supply side, publishers maintain what they expect to be paid and will raise any discrepancies as well.

The problem is your wording was poor at best. You said “ I'm a UK resident, and might not be understanding things correctly. *We don't do book banning or excluding over here.*”.

This makes it sound as though NO book is EVER banned or excluded. Which is blatantly false.[0]

If you had meant “we don't have any centralised list of books that can't be in a public or school library”, then you should have said that. Not make a false general statement. Though I’d be pleasantly surprised to hear that there are laws in place to prevent local/central government bans, considering the UK’s history of such things. Wikipedia doesn’t list such a law, although it does list that the last banned book was unbanned by your government in 1992, and that none have been added since.

I used to sell life insurance. "Minor" health problems would result in a slightly higher rate: higher than average blood pressure, asthma, thyroid issues, etc. Serious health problems like diabetes, cancer, smoking, and so on meant much higher premiums, especially when combined. If you were a private pilot, they wouldn't even give you insurance (most of the time) unless you agreed to be covered in all cases except flying. It's called an aviation exclusion rider.

Extremely bad. I can’t believe anyone would do this.
Short term treasuries are paying more than that. 6 month is at about 5.3% and that’s State tax free.

There is a concept from polling called a "random sample" which would apply here. If you take 10,000 clicks and sort them into legitimate and illegitimate, as long as you were able to rule out any way that your sample would be significantly more or less fraudulent than the whole pool, you would understand (roughly) the ratio in the greater pool.

It's like taking a sample of a swimming pool, to check the chlorine levels.

> "significant quantities", "many different brands", "appear to have been served", "many ads were served", "Often"...you can keep reading as long as you like, and will not find a single objective number or percentage

I’m a bit confused. The Adalytics report definitely defines numbers and percentages of the samples they looked at. Obviously only Google will have the authoritative final numbers, but they are also the ones most incentivized to keep them as opaque as possible. I admit I’m not very familiar with the ad business, and know that a fraud is rampant, but there is a difference between a rampant 5-10% fraud to 50–60%. The first few paragraph list a lot of percentages from that report

> somehow redhat isn't entitled to give back to Linux

So it's not enough to employ more than 1000 people working on upstream/Fedora/CentOS Stream, have a strict upstream first policy for features that go into RHEL and their other products, donate to a bunch of foundations and sponsor conferences, maintain the main repository of firmware updates for Linux, be consistently in the top three contributors to Linux, open source pretty much all the closed source code that they get from acquisitions, distribute source also when not required by the license, give away two distributions for free, and possibly more things I don't remember?

Good to know, at least they tried.
With rates at 5%, duration of a 30y bond: 15y, 50y bond: 18y, 100y bond: 20y.

In other words you barely get any duration benefit for a 100y bond over a 50y bond because anything beyond 50y is so heavily discounted it doesn’t matter.

There isn’t really any reason to buy that beyond the cool factor.
> 1.045^100 = 81x. That sounds more impressive, as inflation over the last hundred years is only 17x.

Viewed another way, though, if inflation is the same, "you'll" get 4.7x in real money at the end.

On the other hand, you'll be paying tax on that interest, so you are likely to be losing money in absolute terms.

The phone gets a push message showing how much time you've been using an app, and "What have you gained in that time?

For example: When I was happily watching YouTube, suddenly a push message was sent from the top of my phone, showing the market where I had watched YouTube, and asked: What have you learned during this time?

92% of American households own a car. So, plainly: yes, my experience was typical.
That's what I mean about a mischaracterization. There's no indication of long term retention, but rather of pointing and laughing.

Remember the olden days of photo labs at the mall that would run the pictures visibly in front of the window?

They don't do that any more, but the employees still point and laugh while they are in their possession. Right or wrong, it is human nature, when they all technically have access.

Wayland as a concept is pretty good.

But I would strongly urge anyone from switching to it unless you have nostalgia about the bug-ridden nature of the 2010-era Linux Desktop.

I’m still using it, by the way, with Hyprland, but I think I’ll be switching back to X11/i3 soon. Here’s a taste of my experience thus far.

Electron apps are a mess. This isn’t (all) wayland’s fault but for issue lists like https://github.com/electron/electron/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%... to exist, proponents of wayland would find it in their best interest to tackle the problems given the large number of applications that use electron.

Screen sharing doesn’t work. All the old fixes are to be ignored - it has regressed. Again. Font sizes are screwy. VSCode simply doesn’t work. The handy slack shortcuts like ctrl+shift+space for mute that work anywhere only work when slack is focused on Wayland.

If you have multiple monitors of different scaling factors, moving a window from one to the other results in it becoming unbearably blurry.

wl-clipboard and vim with clipboard=unnamedplus (the only reasonable clipboard) simply don’t work well together, and have a history of bugs going back for FOUR YEARS. At the moment, holding down x or d for repeated deletes is INSANELY slow. As in, I’m used to it working at my repeat rate of ~60 deletes per second and it barely does 3.

Every now and then, my cursor becomes huge. Every now and then, it becomes tiny. No idea why, and I’m afraid to ask.

Basically, it’s not a comfortable experience.

This looks super interesting, thanks for sharing. I like that you're exploiting the new functions API to give GPT agent-style access to explore a codebase. I have played with that previously with gpt-3.5 and plan to do some more experiments with gpt-4 someday soon.

I am also working on an open source CLI tool in this space [0]. I've taken a different approach, more focused on chatting with GPT to have it edit the code in your local git repo.

But my tool also provides GPT with a semantic map of your repo and the ability to ask to see particular files, etc. I use it to answer questions about unknown codebases all the time, and then start asking it to make changes. I have a chat transcript that illustrates that here [1]. As another example I needed a new feature in the glow tool and was able to make a PR [2] for it, even though I don't know anything about that codebase or even how to write golang.

Also, there's a small discord [3] where a few of us working on "AI coding tools" have been sharing ideas. You might be interested in joining the conversation over there.
