"should never have been allowed to acquire it?"
It's very funny the way you put it. Already government has too much power and you want further they take over the economy and do pulls and pushes.

Free market means, freely allowing people to trade using persuasions — not government using its coercion.
People also often forget other side of the picture.

1. Why don't they attack smaller companies who are ready to sell their companies to Amazon or Microsoft.
2. Why don't they ask government to put people in jail who are buying products from Amazon and making Amazon big?

I am considering flagging this because its such a piece of revisionist history.

Marx needs to be treated as a religious leader because his followers have started writing myths about him.

Anyway, if anyone wants to skip reading it, the tl;dr:

"A silkworm exists and does exactly what its born to do, in a way like an artist can fully immerse themselves into their work. You should do that too."
Seems like a very similar use-case like Zookeeper - use it for distributed coordination / consistency etc and build your actual database on top of it.
Related: Andrew Huberman's 2-hour blog post on the negative effects of alcohol[1] convinced me to stop drinking.

Once you stop drinking, it becomes so easy to see just how much alcohol pervades popular culture. People drink constantly on TV. People pressure you to drink in social situations, too. Unfortunately, it often feels like you need a 'good reason' to stop drinking or alternatively admit you were an alcoholic. It's really unfortunate and ... silly?

Reddit's "stopdrinking" subreddit is also really good[2] if you are struggling with this.

that's all stuff that would be impressive for a single human to be able to produce instantly (because nobody remembers all these APIs), but that's still formulaic enough that it's not hard to imagine why ChatGPT succeeds at it

but will ChatGPT help you debug and fix a production issue that came about due to a Kafka misconfiguration? will it be able to find the deadlock in your code that is causing requests to be dropped? will it suggest a path forward when you need to replace an obscure library that hasn't been updated in 5 years? will it be able to make sense of seemingly contradictory business requirements?

Tell HN: Archive.today doesn't resolve when using Cloudflare/Mozilla DNS
If you try to connect to archive.today via https, it will tell you an SSL error:

- SSL_ERROR_NO_CYPHER_OVERLAP error in Firefox

- ERR_SSL_VERSION_OR_CIPHER_MISMATCH in Chrome/Chromium.

If you try to connect via http:// CloudFlare spits out a DNS resolution error.

If you connect via TOR it works perfectly fine. Tried out several ISPs and their defaulted DNS servers.

edit/update:

It seems to be somewhat DNS blocked, if the response is "1.1.1.4" or "1.1.1.7" for the A record it seems to be the cloudflare's blocked server response. If the IP is "192..." then it's the correct one.

The SSL blocked response of the 1.1.1.7 IP is when the cloudflare proxy responds with an SSL response header that simply offers no ciphers (verify yourself via "openssl s_client archive.today:443")

I could reproduce the behavior with cloudflare's DNS servers and vodafone + Deutsche Telekom + o2/telefonica's DNS servers.

Resolution works fine with Google's DNS servers.

When googling about the issue, I found this old post about it:

https://jarv.is/notes/cloudflare-dns-archive-is-blocked/

It seems as the Cloudflare DNS servers don't send any geolocation info via EDNS and that's why the archive owner decided to respond with bogus responses!? On wikipedia it said the issue was resolved in 2018, but apparently it still isn't? or at least isn't again?

Others have already made a few in response, but for reference, this ACM queue article [1] is a good place to start. It has been widely discussed both on HN and elsewhere, and a simple search of the title can bring up several counter-arguments etc. if you're interested and want to know more.

No way. You have to convince each human to give you the information that you want on a case by case bases every time you want it. We suck at that even when we're being cooperative--which in many cases we aren't. With cars you can just collect it all by default and search for what you need after the fact.

This is what I don't want from a search engine. What I want from a search engine is a list of links to places that have relevant information. I don't want the engine to summarize or distill what those places are saying. Too much knowledge and understanding is lost by not doing that myself.
Xi really thinks crypto is a bad idea and a de-stablizing influence --- which is why he is OK with HK banks supporting it's operation in the rest of the world --- but not in China.

In other words, he views it as a weapon of economic sabotage to be applied against others and thus he won't allow it in China.
The comments regarding matte vs glossy and text sharpness resonates with me. It’s really hard to use any non-Apple screens since their color is completely washed out and lifeless and text lacks crispness on all screens at a range of price points I’ve ever tried. What’s even more puzzling is how a large number of people online seem to adamantly defend widely sold lower-dpi 32” 4k matte screens as a superior product. It’s been over a decade since first retina products shipped and somehow 200 dpi+ desktop screens is still an extremely niche product.
There's NOMINMAX, NOGDI, etc. for that.
How we rate things in the Netherlands is a reflection of the rating system used in schools.

1-5. Ranging from pathetic to inadequate, in any case you didn't pass.

6. Adequate, the minimum needed to pass. A culturally important number as it expresses the "zesjescultuur", a phenomenon where somebody is intentionally doing the absolute bare minimum to not get into trouble.

7. More than adequate.

8. Good. Even if near-perfect, few Dutch people would rate above this number because we don't want you to get all cocky.

9. Excellent. In service, only awarded when you did something completely unexpected or memorable.

10. Perfect, flawless.
I think something important to note here is that most people who reduce or eliminate alcohol from their lives do it because THEY want to, not because the government tells them to, or makes it harder/more expensive to consume.

Taxes, no alcohol in supermarkets, etc...seems rather misguided...
Not for productivity.
> but if AIs invent a new type of math, they would be able to teach it to us

There are already math proofs made by humans on this very day that are hundreds upon hundreds of pages of lemmas that are highly advanced and building on other advanced results. Understanding such a proof is an undertaking that literally takes years. An AI might end up doing it in minutes. But what an AI could cook up in years could take a human... several lifetimes to understand.

As another example, take the design and fabrication of a modern microprocessor. There are so many layers of complexity involved, I would bet that no single person on this planet has all the required knowledge end-to-end needed to manufacture it.

As soon as the complexity of an AI's knowledge reaches a certain point, it essentially becomes unteachable in any reasonable amount of time. Perhaps smaller sub-parts could be distilled and taught, but I think it's naive to assume all knowledge is able to be sliced and diced to human-bite-sized chunks.
It’s possible to enjoy life without needing chemicals to do so.
I hear you, I see the risks, I know the numbers... and I simultaneously don't think society has a role in restricting it more than presently, at least in the US.

First, as the author admits as having some logic, "If someone can vote, if they can join the army, fight and die, get married, then they should be allowed to buy alcohol." When does adulthood kick in? If you couldn't join the army until you were 35, get married until you are 35, or own a gun until 35, I am sure the death or divorce rate statistics would go down, but nobody wants 35 to be the age of adulthood.

Secondly, this claim: "Formerly wasted talent would be used in the economy, countless lives would be saved, and families and relationships would be healthier and less violent." The author really doesn't want to talk about these claims were lifted straight from Prohibition and the WCTU, verbatim. It turns out humans who don't care about wasting talent like wasting it any way they can; be it alcohol, drugs, video games, gang violence, take your pick. The WCTU learned that the hard way when gang violence for alcohol became the new favorite way to waste talent.

Third, he follows the premise that dangerous means we should discourage it. I don't actually agree. Motorcycles are 20 times as deadly as cars to the rider - but I don't believe the government has any role in shutting them down. There is also a very high risk of unexpected consequences - for example, the requirements for lots of new safety equipment in new cars has been shown to have significantly priced out poorer communities, causing them to opt for cheaper, older, even more dangerous vehicles.

Fourth, I think is honestly stupid that he factors drugs in as an example of how "we can ban drugs - why not alcohol?" Has literally anything about how drug bans have been enforced gone well? We can think drugs are bad for people while admitting the War on Drugs has been a nightmarish disaster with over 19% of High Schoolers admitting to having used drugs in the last 30 days, not to mention causing considerable racial effects, as well as having built a logistics service that rivals Amazon while being illegal - and yet he brings it up as though it was a good example!

Are you using Cloudflare DNS? (potentially browser-level setting, DoH rollout and all that) Archive.is etc keep playing games with users coming from there. What IPs are you getting for archive.today?

Can't reproduce what you describe on my German connections.

I considered that when replying. I don't think I am making a personal criticism just for the sake of it, or an ad hom. And I do think the observation I am making is interesting. I don't mean it as a personal attack. Really.

Suppose what I am saying is true -- that relatively unknown people rolling their eyes or laughing and relatively known people being very earnestly concerned. And that these are people with otherwise similar credentials, at least as far as assessing x-risk is concerned.

Maybe you disagree, and that's okay, and there are other threads where that discuss is ongoing. But here let's assume it's true, because I think it is and that's relevant to your fair criticism.

Like, it is a weird thing, right? Normally famous scientists and CEOs are not so far out ahead of the field on things like this. More often than not it's the opposite. To have that particular set of people so far out of stride isn't particularly normal.

I think the common thread that differentiates similarly-senior people on the x-risk question is not experience, or temperament, or scope of responsibility. Or even necessarily the substance of what they believe if you sit down and listen and probe what they really mean when thy say there is or isn't x-risk from AI! The difference is mostly amount of Ego and how much they want to be in The Discourse.

Also: I don't think that having a large ego is necessarily a character flaw, any more than having a strong appetite or needing more/less sleep. It's just how some people are, and that's okay, and people with big egos can be good or bad people, and circumstantially ego can be good or bad. But people who have bigger egos do behave a bit differently sometimes.

Anyways, I'm not trying to assassinate anyone's character or even necessarily mount an ad hom dismissal of x-risk. I'm observing something which I think is true, and doing it in as polite a way as I can even though it's a bit of an uncomfortable thing to say.

I guess what I'm trying to say is that "maybe this personality trait explains a weird phenomenon of certain types of experts clustering on an issue", and it's worth saying if you think it might be true, even if that personality trait has (imo perhaps overly) negative connotations.

And in any case this is substantially different from "you're an idiot because I disagree with you".
High DPI screens with Windows really show how bad the font rendering is.
As a comptime macro, yes, you should be able to slot in a DSL for all your vector math and essentially "pass in a string, get the function calls back". It would not be that hard, if you're up on your parser-writing skills, and definitely much cleaner than any C-style equivalent.
Hackers on the orange website do have a reputation for being mean dorks so you could have a point there.

OMG... Did not know Amazon was the owner of Goodreads. There is practically no way you can buy a book online outside the Amazon ecosystem.
This example sounds nice on paper, but has anything even remotely similar ever happened, within living memory? I have my doubts.

So while possible in theory, if it's impossible to happen in practice, it's not a valid counterargument to a practical proposal.

Weed is better in the states from that perspective. The best option is probably just working out though. Lifting can produce some fairly nice endorphins.
> study suggested that up to a quarter of young alcoholics have a social anxiety disorder

Causation? Anxiety makes you drink or drinking makes you anxious?
Prolific in what, though? Actual fines instead of peanuts? Preventing mergers of companies that at the federal level don't lead to monopolies, but at every local level do? It speaks volumes to how little power the FTC has in the modern day if it still doesn't have enough on Amazon to have forced them into reform on Khan's first day in office. Their business practice isn't exactly a secret.

It's not that they haven't gotten better, but "better" and "what they should be" are very different things. One only hopefully leads to the other.
Compare these two methods:

https://github.com/ziglang/zig/blob/0dffab7356685c7643aa6e3c...

https://github.com/ziglang/zig/blob/0dffab7356685c7643aa6e3c...

One of them requires passing an allocator (and can allocate), the other doesn’t have an allocator argument (and thus can’t allocate). If you only pass allocator to `init` method of your application, and don’t store it anywhere, only init will be able to call allocating methods, the rest of the app will be allocation free, by construction.

I think you're going to be waiting a long time, even the geforce 4080 and 4090 don't support displayport 2.0.

Additionally much of the demand for >60Hz is for gaming purposes, and there is nowhere near a powerful enough GPU anyone can afford that would be able to render games in high quality or extreme detail level at 8K above 60 FPS. Right now a GPU that costs $1500 USD can maybe render a 4K game with extreme detail level at framerates that vary between 55 to 75 fps.

Thank you! I apologize for not including a link to the actual tool I was referencing.

The app is very sophisticated and they do many dark UX practices so I wanted to do some forensics under the radar before compiling an expose, but it is CapCut. It is integrated into TikTok fairly deeply and contains many nasty UX decisions that TikTok used to have before they were called out on it so I am suspicious. Just curious if there is any legit reason to have scalpel be included in the 3rd party source code disclosure.
Greetings, fellow customer!
Unimpressed by this game. The accuracy on the scale is off by as much as 25%, as can be seen here: https://i.imgur.com/NOvqCnV.png. As the only information you're given other than a new photo is the distance, this is a serious problem.

What's worse, the 'correct' location radius doesn't even include the locations where all the photos were taken!

SPOILER FOR GAME #60:

Game #60 has a clue that shows YOU ARE HERE: https://i.imgur.com/98OXlal.png which is exactly here (google maps [1]) https://i.imgur.com/KdN4OCh.png which corresponds exactly to my guess location https://i.imgur.com/eCy97r6.png. However, they claim that the correct location is here: https://i.imgur.com/cSasI3g.png or https://i.imgur.com/ChuisIx.jpeg (google [2]), which is actually 9.5 miles away and outside their 5 mile radius, so it scored me as missing by 4.5 miles.

It's quite simply unacceptable to claim that all the photos are of the same place and then have the exact location within the photo not be within the accepted answer radius. Geoguesser, for example, REQUIRES you to identify the exact location within ~150 meters (in the worldwide mode) and they are actually correct with that degree of precision. This error of 9.5 miles is 15,000 meters away.

Beware that Bookwyrm is neither Open Source (as per OSI definition) nor Free Software (per FSF definition). It is legally impossible for a lot of people to deploy it, I think it even include myself (I am employed by a company, does it counts as "laboring for myself" in my country?)
Also, weed isn't really that comparable to alcohol anyway. It is a very different drug and while some people really enjoy it, others don't.

Also, while I do strongly believe that weed is healthier compared to alcohol, it isn't without it's own problems.
Depends on the romance novels. Some women want Fabio, others want a sexy doctor or a vampire. Certainly lots of women do want hunky guys, but the gay community has had a whole taxonomy of sexy body types for decades through physique magazines and the like.
One would think that given the purported depth and breadth of our economic system, it would be possible for that system to address all audiences instead of just catering to the most common denominator.

That's a great news. Harvard, uber wealthy, and their elite 'servant' class don't want to distribute elite power centers across the states. Once they get rid of ALDC, Harvard ceases being a Harvard. Exclusive companies such as MBB are forced to recruit people from many other schools; one can see interns from state schools, working at elite govt institutions. And so on. HYP don't want to lose that exclusivity.
