Genesis 9:2-6 NIV
[2] The fear and dread of you will fall on all the beasts of the earth, and on all the birds in the sky, on every creature that moves along the ground, and on all the fish in the sea; they are given into your hands. [3] Everything that lives and moves about will be food for you. Just as I gave you the green plants, I now give you everything. [4] “But you must not eat meat that has its lifeblood still in it. [5] And for your lifeblood I will surely demand an accounting. I will demand an accounting from every animal. And from each human being, too, I will demand an accounting for the life of another human being. [6] “Whoever sheds human blood, by humans shall their blood be shed; for in the image of God has God made mankind.

I use a seperate app for car navigation. Can't trust Google.

But a lot of people apparently want a single "super" app that does everything. Musk was right about that- we're all going to see a Western WeChat emerge. All hail integration.
Regardless of whatever the political currents are, it's sensible policy to strike down every pseudo law that doesn't have legislative backing of some kind.

If they only selectively struck them down in favor of one group or another, then that would be a different matter.
Can you point to where that "right" is codified in law?
I'm getting strong vibes of this:

> Conservative: I have been censored for my conservative views

> Me: Holy shit! You were censored for wanting lower taxes?

> Con: LOL no...no not those views

> Me: So....deregulation?

> Con: Haha no not those views either

> Me: Which views, exactly?

> Con: Oh, you know the ones

But by all means, let us know which views you have that are "not extreme or horrible" but also "instant ban"
You are right, this is another issue. With an unlocked bootloader, you'll not be able to fully pass SafetyNet, for instance. I've also seen some forum posts that this should be possible for Motorola Moto G phones, but there were some warnings that if you do that, you might not be able to unlock your phone ever again, so I've never tried...
1% of a billion in RETAIL sales is a big number.

Manufacturers do not care about orders less than 10,000 units. They make their money off of volume.

The only government that seems to care about these topics is China, although the rest of the world seems to be catching up on a strong desire to tie the individual to a device.

Telecoms require $500,000 per device for certification through GSMA.

FOSS can only do so much with closed modems. Porting to new devices comes with a heap of issues that require time, which means scaling to market is not viable without $$$.
Agree except for the "willingness to legislate" changing.

That's been in place for a LONG time, it dates all the way back to the separation of church and state decision being based on a letter Thomas Jefferson wrote.

Hell Roe v. Wade itself is an example.
Tip the health insurance companies that they have to up the premiums or deny cancer coverage.
1. How would this not make tools like Github Copilot exorbitantly expensive? Why should I have to pay a tax to everyone else in the United States to use something that was disproportionately trained on my own data?

2. Given that the internet is global, is every country supposed to make their own versions of this? Will I have to pay the EU tax to use models that might have been trained on data that Europeans posted online?
Congress has more important issues to deal with, such as making it illegal to participate in any programs involving extraterrestrial craft without notifying Congress
The fundamental issue in that situation isn't about profit, it's about the definition of what is considered publicly accessible and what consent that implies.

I disagree with you on whether it should count as being exploited. I don't see fanfiction writers professional impersonators or as inherently exploitative. I understand that some people would disagree because there is a difference in scale. But using technology to mimic and, in some sense, replace human effort is the reason it is useful.

I believe this will shift how and why people value organic media. The standard of what makes content "good" will rise in the long term. When stable diffusion first came out, I compared the generated art to the elevator music. I feel the same way about the output of LLMs. I might feel differently in a few years if models get better at the rate they currently have been, but that's not likely.

I agree that people should have more control over how their data is used, and I'd love to see this suit lead to stricter laws.
This tool isn’t doing anything particularly complex.
It sets up a new pty, attaches the child process to it, listens for OSC52 control codes, and calls pbcopy when appropriate.

You can wrap your ssh session with it and you’re done.

It’s very elegant and multiple orders of magnitude less complex than something like tmux.

Do white people in general feel that way because of systemic sustained racial discrimination for their benefit?

I get what you’re saying, but racial discrimination has worked against Latinos and Blacks for so long and in so many facets of life — you don’t find it odd that this singular event of college admissions trumps everything else?
I literally bought a Fairphone 3+ that came with /e/ OS pre-installed. It gets updates like a normal Android, I never had to care about the fact that it is not a normal Android (i.e. I never had to run a weird installer or anything at all).

How is that not "pretty easy"?
My understanding is that bacon itself is not the culprit of the possible (note — possible) carcinogen. The sodium nitrate that is often used as a preservative is. Nitrate-free bacon is easy to find though.

The iron grip is on a decidedly double-edged sword. I applaud the continuity and maintainability of Clojure and its ecosystem. The consistency of the language has come from this stern stewardship. Rich makes very clear that the source code for the language is available to be forked. Very interesting developments have come from this, most notably babashka.

Through a legal framework enumerating basic inalienable rights, perhaps. But substituting a tyranny of the majority for a tyranny of the minority isn't an improvement.
No chance there would be a switch. Consumer tastes and eduction aren't going to change.

Short of that, I wish there was clearer and more consistent labeling. I avoid sugar and sweeteners. Its annoying to be in the mood for a flavored drink, see something that claims to be zero sugar/all natural/etc, grab it in a hurry, then discover on the first sip its got erythritol in it. I read the label, but sometimes I miss it. My preferred options are unsweetened iced tea, coffee, or flavored water. Those are reliable, but can get boring.

Food is generally easier. I just avoid anything that has (or should have) a lot of carbs as a rule when looking for convenient pre-packaged food. No point in sweetening a can of sardines...
It seems this will end quotas,

Quotas have been illegal since the 1970s.
Good advice. Implicit here is that you really need _something motivating_ to write/think about in order to follow this advice.

That's probably obvious, but perhaps relevant for someone who comes at this with an ambiguous desire to "write well" but without clarity on "about what."

Maybe a trivial point, but that's certainly the starting point of any writer's journey: a topic?
Ask HN: Am I hurting my programming career by not exploring AI coding tools?
I have 0 interest in using ChatGPT, Github's Copilot, or any other AI coding tool.

I have a hard enough time using and trusting snippet engines or doing due diligence in implementing a solution I find on stack overflow.

Roughly 30% of developers in the 2023 stack overflow survey responded the same way which is the minority and I would guess will shrink every year https://survey.stackoverflow.co/2023/#section-sentiment-and-usage-ai-tools-in-the-development-process
But that's no different from combustion cars.

False. EVs enable tunnels with far less ventilation. Electric motors enable form factors which would be impractical with an ICE engine.

Say a combustion car had 100 complexity units, of which the motor has 50, the rest has also 50.

You're still limiting your thinking to the motive function of a single car. That's not the entirety of what I'm discussing here.
We don't. The first file is only very high level details (not specific locations). You still have no idea where the silos actually are

The second does not show any silo locations at all, it shows support infra for the silos (e.g. uranium mines)
Some of the original Supreme Court cases upholding these policies went so far as to say that in the future, these exact things should be revisited because they were trying to bandage over decades of institutional racism.

https://gspp.berkeley.edu/research-and-impact/publications/w...

> In her opinion in Grutter v. Bollinger, Justice Sandra Day O’Connor concluded that affirmative action in college admissions is justifiable, but not in perpetuity: “We expect that 25 years from now, the use of racial preferences will no longer be necessary to further the interest [in student body diversity] approved today.”

There are lots of criticisms of the SC, but I don't see why everything they rule should be absolute ground truth forever. They can (and do) revisit cases for good reason.
It's too bad ad tracking networks ruined shared JS hosting and CDNs for everyone. There's no cache benefit to it any more because browsers stopped sharing caches between sites for privacy reasons.

(As Deno shows, ESM imports make a lot of sense from CDN-like URLs again. It just won't perform well in the browser because there is no shared cache benefit.)
> Second, salaries are garbage, especially for migrants. There is a term for this situation called "Canadian Experience": employers claim that because one does not have experience working in Canada, they deserve a crappy salary while they acquire it. This is of course bullshit.

When issuing visas, the Canadian government uses a point system (age, degree...) that never actually checks for employability.

That's how you get people claiming they were "Senior Engineers" in their home country that can't pass a fizzbuzz test. With a signal to noise ratio this low, a lot of employers simply won't bother unless someone can demonstrate that someone else is willing to employ them at Canadian wages for the position they claim they can perform.
Which is similarly a sign that you might(!) also not be able to evaluate the risk.
> This development comes at a high price. We have a team of about 15 developers full time working on this for almost two years.

This is not peanuts but it also doesn't strike me as a serious bottleneck. It is a rounding error in the budget of any serious entity that might want to get involved in this.
I mean in the floating point / quantized numbers and the connections that make the model? I'm not sure I follow, the analogy to the human brain has always been obvious, it's even in the name (artificial neural network) ...
You can cut out the middle man for those searches, at least on the desktop versions of Firefox and Chrome. You can add a new search engine in the browser settings and add a keyword. If you've done that you can type that keyword in your address bar, followed by the search term you want.
Not supporting multi-line statements is just because pdb doesn't bother to parse the statement to work out if it is an incomplete multi-line statement. That could be easily fixed (I have a prototype patch for that using `code.compile_command`).

The scope problems are more fundamental:

The pdb REPL calls[1] the exec builtin as `exec(code, frame.f_globals, frame.f_locals)`, which https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#exec documents as:

"If exec gets two separate objects as globals and locals, the code will be executed as if it were embedded in a class definition."

And https://docs.python.org/3/reference/executionmodel.html#reso... documents that:

"The scope of names defined in a class block is limited to the class block; it does not extend to the code blocks of methods - this includes comprehensions and generator expressions since they are implemented using a function scope."

This is a fundamental limitation of `exec`. You can workaround it by only passing a single namespace dictionary to exec instead of passing separate globals and locals, which is what pdb's interact command does[2], but then it's ambiguous how to map changes to that dictionary back to the separate globals and locals dictionaries (pdb's interact command just discards any changes you make to the namespace). This too could be solved, but requires either brittle ast parsing or probably a PEP to add new functionality to exec. I'll file a bug against Python soon.

That article should be one line long:

The new Desktop outlook is a bad idea because it supports only Office 365 and not on-prem exchange.

Actually, it seems they have mostly fixed this, but I had to clean the app data to make it work again. Sometimes you get "Oops, you are rate limited", but that was just temporary.

Hah this mirrors my life & experience to a T! [1] I had other "high-achieving" kids at my school be sour grape-y about the MIT thing, saying I only got in because I was Mexican. On the one hand, it probably helped. On the other, I was imo clearly a cut above them academically.

I've never really had an identity crisis about it though. I'm white, but I'm also Mexican. The majority of my extended family is Mexican (I basically have no extended family on any maternal branches). But I wasn't raised to speak Spanish and in general had a pretty generic white American upper-middle-class upbringing. Both are parts of who I am and neither deserves shame or uplifting.

[1] Except while I got into MIT, I did not go (went to my very good in-state school - whole other topic + I am very happy with the outcome.)
Is the webassembly story ripe yet ?
EDIT as a commenter below has kindly pointed out, our current models indicate that the answer to this question is "no", per https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QMFLcmsjOBg

This is all firmly outside my technical discipline, but aren't there some theories that faster-than-light travel might be achieved by bending spacetime around a spacecraft, as opposed to trying to propel the spacecraft through space?

I really want to emphasize that this is entirely speculation, but is it possible that these gravitational waves could be the "ripples" produced in the wake of such faster-than-light travel, the same way a boat travelling through a body of water leaves ripples in the water behind it?
Yes, lot of formal verifications are (almost) free and most others are not. But if you at least take the free ones, why not…

I think you're right based on this article: https://www.cnn.com/2023/03/14/health/pfas-water-filters-wel...

PFAS looks to be removable with activated carbon or reverse osmosis filters.

EDIT: I think you're right that it's possible. idk if municipalities usually use these filters
Carbon fiber is stronger per weight in compression too, just not by the same amount.

Again, composites aren't exotic. We've been building with them for decades and decades. It is surely possible that the root cause here was an incorrect accounting for some or another failure mode in the composite hull. It is likewise possible that given correct analysis, carbon fiber just isn't a good material for this application.

But the absolutism of declaring, absent evidence, that carbon fiber hulled submarines are impossible, or that this was the sole reason for the implosion, is just ridiculous. Engineering is more complicated than that.
These foams are a good reason to never raise a family near an airport or military base. Particularly military bases, they're notorious for covering up chemical pollution for years and being dismissive of local concerns. They think their mission puts them above casual reproach.
> You don't need a custom kernel.

Most Android devices use a downstream kernel that has modifications that were made specifically for the device. In other words, most Android devices are not mainlined. I guess it is reasonable to call "custom" anything that is not the mainline kernel, isn't it?
Check out the Volla phone. Then look at the price and imagine a retail scenario where a person is going to purchase a "no name" FOSS phone or a Samsung. The scale of the marketing is unfathomable.

I agree with you. But you are assuming everyone in the world thinks logically, let alone understands why FOSS is a better option.
Oh that's right! Thanks for clearing it up for me :) That does make more sense
Also mentioned in the article is that this company did know that about the toxic effects of these chemicals but just ignored it or kept it secret. They know it is toxic but still choose to dump it in the river because it below the limit or there is no limit.
Exactly this. But also, so many "right-on" people who presume that they're 100% right about everything, are sometimes the very people who say things like "punch nazis", without any sort of definition of who they're talking about. It's never actual Nazis, or even "nationalist socialists" of the common variety. Nope, if you dig into their comments they're simply people who are slightly to the right of them on some issues. So it's fine to call them nazis and incite violence. I say all of this as a fiscally left-of-centre non-flying vegetarian, just in case any of the right-on folks are reading this, assuming I'm a Nazi too.

But as the corollary to that, I know of zero successfully stopped technological revolutions. You can't put the genie back in the bottle, and there is no way to stop progress, aside from a one-world authoritarian government that forcibly stops as much of it as they can. But even that would only be marginally effective. Progress would eventually resume.
> I know plenty of guys with bracelets, chains, rings, earrings and/or tattoos

These are mostly considered to be low-status symbols. For men, in fact it is often recommended not to wear necklaces to a job interview, and hide any tattoos.
(the year is 2048. The camera pans across an office at Quantico, which is eerily serene. A messenger knocks on an important-looking door with a plaque that reads 'DIRECTOR')

Director: Come in

Messenger: Message from the Tulsa field office, sir. They're reporting that they've found a sex trafficking ring, but they're not sure what to do about it.

Director: Not sure? Arrest them, obviously. What's the problem?

Messenger: Well, they can't seem to secure a warrant. Some technical issue with the system.

Director: I know we migrated to a new system recently. Let's see if we can get this sorted.

(Director thwacks at the keyboard briefly)

Computer: Your request for "Child Sex Trafficking Warrant" has been found to contain content marked "Not Safe For Work". This violation has been reported.

Director: What the hell.

Messenger: Yeah, we tried to email you about it but the filters dropped the message. That's why they sent me.

Director: I'll deal with this. Let me make a call.

(Director picks up phone and dials)

Director: Hello? Hi, Paul. Yeah, we're having some issues with the new warrant system.... No, it's doing everything as advertised... yes, it's a lot faster and we've managed to lay off a ton of our data staff. The problem is with getting warrants; Me and my guys have been trying to get one but it keeps getting rejected... Oh, you know, some sex trafficking ring in Tulsa.... Hello?

Phone: Your call cannot be completed as spoken. Our automated systems have detected content related to sex trafficking. This incident will be reported.

Director: God Damnit.

(as the director holds the phone trembling in frustration, the power goes out and they are enveloped in darkness in the windowless room. Roll credits)
It's more like a mirror-house of human thought. It can create countless arrangements and even execute tasks.
> A typical website like reddit will require hundreds if not thousands of requests to prop up the home page;

How about if you make a site, that doesn't require hundreds of requests to display? One html, one js, 5, maybe 10 images, that can be loaded after the text and placeholders are rendered, and that's it.
That's damning with faint praise, though, isn't it?
Not an expert, but have worked on phones before. My guess: much more aspects of mobile phones are patented or secret, parts aren’t available to small purchasers, weak OSS culture around PCB design at the level of complexity a mobile phone achieves, lack of support from carriers, general complexity and variety of disciplines required to successfully construct a phone.

Remember that there’s also not really that many open source computers either. The difference is mostly that computers are designed to be general purpose OS booters, whereas phones are locked down consumption slabs.
Self control doesn't reduce the amount of sugar that's already added to the soda I would like to drink. It just means I don't get to drink it. I have to go find low-sugar sodas. I would like to have more options.
Nitrate-free (or, "no nitrates added") bacon still contains nitrates. About the same amount as standard bacon, and in some cases, more.

Yes, home prices are drastically lower in most of the states than in Canada. Taxes are also lower, and pay is higher. Just compare home prices in Niagara Falls New York, where you can get what Canadians would consider a great house for literally 100k, and Niagara Falls Ontario where you're looking at 600k-900k. Or compare White Rock BC where a house will run you 3 million, to Blaine Washington where you can get a house for 300k.
If you read carefully, it still contains sodium nitrite except as powdered celery. So the source of the sodium nitrate is “natural” but the dose is still the same.
