Calling someone antisemitic is a great tactic to shut down your opponent and get them to stop talking.

Here's RFK's response to this article:

>I have never, ever suggested that the COVID-19 virus was targeted to spare Jews. I accurately pointed out — during an off-the-record conversation — that the U.S. and other governments are developing ethnically targeted bioweapons and that a 2021 study of the COVID-19 virus shows that COVID-19 appears to disproportionately affect certain races since the furin cleave docking site is most compatible with Blacks and Caucasians and least compatible with ethnic Chinese, Finns, and Ashkenazi Jews.
This. If you write the server code alone and chill in the lounge in the afternoon alone, the hierarchy spiders leave you alone after one public tear down..
If it's not deterministic, it's not going to be useful in professional settings!

Example: you get a bunch of data from your boss, need to find something out, you prompt engineer the results. Your boss get's back to you (five weeks later), likes the result, just want's you to fix a minor thing. It's now giving you completely different results. It's like building on sand.
Other than gaming the only 3 intel machines I bought is intel stick like and later small box shape machine. I think it must be quite successful as I am a mac person. Sad to see it gone because it has its use.

Surprise to see it survive. Strange. Does intel has a network to know. I start to worry now.
> If you’re going actually to use this, however, you need a way to fairly evaluate the performance of ICs that doesn’t rely on input from their management chain which is itself a hard problem.

Why would you need to decouple that to evaluate managers? TBF at manager level this can be a rather simple and robust “how did the org subtree rooted at this person fare at contributing to the stated business objectives?” Along team performance, this depends on staffing matching the expectations. Negotiating which are core responsibilities of a manager.

Seems much easier than evaluating ICs.
The parent probably points to security. Telegram is insecure, this has been discussed many times before. (Rolled their own encryption, a master key, unencrypted group chats)

Thing is that telegram is a completely different app. It has features
for discovering and joining communities. Open or closed. Bots, etcetera. Both Signal and Whatsapp do not have that. It is more like a social network.

That said: it is insecure. Especially in war times that does not sound good. If you do not trust signal or whatsapp, there are other secure communication methods. But seriously: telegram is the worst.
>No one said anything about original TV shows

I did. That's what I meant by targeting existing markets over taking risks, or why I mentioned non-franchise fantasy writing opportunities, and what I assumed the person I was replying to was talking about when criticizing using The Witcher as a backdrop for their disconnected stories.

And even if we brought that number down to 95% of screenwriters, that would still provide a place for everyone to stick their own ideas in.
Wouldn’t it run slow? The Intel CPU data sheet says it emits 95W of heat in "turbo" mode. Is there fanless NUC cases capable to dissipate that amount of heat, without even thinking about the other sources of heat?
No, they didn't change it. It is one of its drawbacks. I enforced the security with SSL client authentication.
vcpkg and conan nowadays.

Not using one of them is making oneselfs live difficult on purpose.
> I don't seem to remember that. Where was that used? The closest I can think is email, which is where I thought Twitter borrowed it.

IRC, chat rooms, web forums. Pretty much any sort of group social arena.

The symbol lends itself to the usage, not vice versa. That's like asking "why do people use quotation marks around quotes"; because that's its intention.

It's clear you're arguing in bad faith here, just keep using the word antisemite, racist, bigot, etc and the people you disagree with won't be allowed to speak anymore.

These words are losing their meaning.

Instead of calling the person names, which I'm pretty sure is against the rules on this site, why not just respond to what GP said? They posted a reasonable response with sources.
What are some effective methods for team leaders to improve team bonding?
What are some effective methods for team leaders to improve team bonding?

• Host game nights, whether virtual or in-person, this is the best way for low-risk problem-solving and competition. Team members who aren't as outspoken get to shine, depending on the game.

• Celebrate each other's wins. Have a comms channel to praise individual and group accomplishments that move the needle forward.

• Make space for playfulness. By embracing how each team member expresses who they are—memes, checklists, rants, podcast links, you get to understand how we can work better together.
It's important to read company marketing statements as if you were a lawyer. We haven't made GPT-4 dumber != We haven't made ChatGPT(4) dumber.

Personal hypothesis is that they have made a few changes to ChatGPT recently - possibly quantization, and almost certainly some tweaks to make it give shorter/less detailed answers.

But by the nature of a probibalistic tool being run by a secretive company, it's hard to say for sure. Maybe I and everyone else complaining have just started to get unlucky answers.
Make sense, Thanks for pointing it out.
Claude 2 vs. Claude 1.3 vs. GPT-4
In the "free market" system, there is huge amount of performative work done - think of advertising and PR. This type of information manipulation is an unintented result of direct competition.

This culture then seeps into large companies, which are trying to emulate it with things like OKRs and company-wide metrics and comparisons.

Earlier, companies were more authoritarian in the sense that understanding of your performance was more at your direct boss discretion, but that brings another problem - nepotism. This is bureacratically simpler but the boss becomes a weak link of "fairness". IOW, people "had their place" in the hierarchy, and it was changing slower (if at all) with their actual contribution.

In collectivist systems (which are distinct from authoritarian ones, and are not typical for firms, unless you have something like a cooperative), on the other hand, selfish people just tune out directly, without need to perform or schmooze with bosses, because there is too little practical repercussions for doing so. During socialism in my country, there was often little pretense that people are not making an effort - because there was little you could do about it.

The reality is always some mix of the three, but I think multi-decadal shift from authoritarian to liberal (while collectivist stagnated) explains the rise of performative work across society. Because status is now more frequently measured rather than remaining stable.

My point is, systems have trade-offs, neither is perfect. Selfish people will adapt to any of them. Although (as a leftist) I would personally prefer less liberal and more collectivist approach to status.
Sure, all senses contribute, but for me personally, engine noise is the biggest signal (even in well sound-proofed cars).
Why would you want to ship an untested model? That's insane.
That's one sale. Governments need design, too, and those designers deserve to be paid. Designers choosing to blur the line on sans vs serif doesn't make it a bad typeface, or some sort of corporate scam to make one sale.
I don't think you got it. Judging by the downvotes, the HN crowd don't like fun being poked at pronoun nonsense either.
Did PN51 come with networking supported by default? When I got my PN50 some time ago, it couldn't connect to either wireless or wired networks and there was no indication which manufacturer's driver was required without some disassembly. I also loved how they shipped a CD with a computer that has no means of reading it with included drivers, so that was completely unhelpful.

Why is installing drivers still a thing in 202x in non-Macs?
> Why would you need to decouple that to evaluate managers?

If a manager’s performance evaluation is based primarily on their reports’ evaluations, then there’s a conflict of interest: The manager is incentivized to inflate their reports’ evaluations because doing so directly improves their own evaluation.
That's really cool. I gotta say as an employee, the system was pretty awesome. My store also had computers for the POS which were orders of magnitudes better than any restaurant I had worked, which probably helped as well.

I worked a corporate store, which might be a difference. But I remember our awards being only based on orders delivered, time until ready for delivery, and customer reviews. I was told actual delivery time wasn't up for awards because they didn't want to encourage reckless driving. There also wasn't any sort of GPS system for drivers, so tracking that would have been unreliable anyways. I was one of the only guys with a Garmin and the old-timers made fun of me for using it.

I'm surprised there wasn't more profiling the data for bottlenecks on the menu. I remember several improvements while I was there. The bottle for the garlic crust sauce was changed which made it way less messy to use. And the pan pizza underwent like 5 revisions. I think my store was one of the first to trial it because at first it underwent changes every other week. The first version took at least 3x as long as a regular "hand tossed" pizza to go from ordered to oven. It was such a pain. They eventually made it as fast to make as a regular pizza. I always assumed they were using the tracker system to help notice this.

> The fun logic was in profiling stores and making predictions about ingredients requirements.

So here's a funny story. Every weekend my store would run out of feta. The nearest neighboring store would also run out of pepperoni. Neither store's management reported it or anything, instead our stores would do a trade of feta for pepperoni every Friday.

Would love to build one one day. I started building a custom KB, but moved house, packed away the 3d printer, etc, and never got back to it. Settled on a Kinesis Freestyle Edge in the meantime and it's.. ok. I'm not in love with it. The config software is ghastly, too. Though it's hard to find split mech KBs that haven't dropped a lot of keys in favour of layers, or haven't moved keys like [] away from their original locations. I would still buy a second though, rather than carting one to and from work. Guy must love that thing.

In practice, nothing (against multiple multi-warhead ICBMs). If your foe only has one or two ICBMs maybe you have even odds. Against any nuclear-armed nation other than present-day North Korea, nothing. Even if you could intercept 90% of missiles/warheads if the opponent fires 20 (or 2000), you're screwed.
There are multiple stages of flight in which one can attempt interception, but only the final stage after separation of warheads is realistic (which multiples the number of projectiles to intercept greatly): you can't intercept at accent unless you're very close to the launch site, hitting stuff in space with directed energy is defeated by a simple mirror, and hitting it with an inceptor is not feasible.

Since the system appears to be dynamic to certain extent (beyond training) this will be a permanent problem. The feedback that large/public GPT systems are given and retrained upon will cause ups and downs, depending on the mood of the society. But I believe this entanglement of people dependent on LLMs and vice versa will go pear shaped until full Idiocracy scenario is reached. As George Carlin supposedly said "never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups".

Please keep to the HN guidelines and stop reposting that article and claim which has been debunked multiple times in this comment section - it contributes nothing to the conversation.
Just yesterday I gave ChatGPT a summarization task and it performed horribly. I even tried multiple times and got the identical answer. Then I gave the identical prompt to gpt-3.5-turbo via the API and I immediately got the expected good answer.
DKIM etc cannot authenticate the email address. It can authenticate the sender domain (which is the main win anyway).

Only signed emails can be authenticated against the sender.
This is always such a reductive position. There's a little bit of evidence that ANNs learn and create in a similar way to biological neural networks, and a lot of evidence that they're quite alien to us, including being way better than the average human at reproducing parts of their training set verbatim (eg. Copilot reproducing `Q_rsqrt` verbatim, including the magic numbers, formatting and comments.) So it's not obvious that training an ANN should be treated the same as a human watching a movie under copyright law, which is designed to protect the human creative process only.
By “hard” I meant that the local hegemon makes it hard.
I read his response, seemed pretty reasonable to me.

Actually it’s the opposite. Tech is irrelevant and can easily be outsourced to cheap third worlders. All that matters is selling.

Also the misplaced notion that all religious ideologies are same. Religions followed strictly promote procreation but they do not provide a solution for hunger, using limited resources of the world etc.

I can also argue as an Indian that authoritarian Chinese growth over last 4 decades did more to remove people from poverty and increase quality of life (in the process also saving many lives, whatever the cost - 15k Tiananmen deaths etc.) than democratic India where till recently nothing seemed to get done due to corruption, mismanagement and people fighting over limited resources.

I'm really happy this is happening. Meta had strict rules for hiring sr. managers (M2) wherein you'd to have a minimum of 30 reports in your previous job to even get called for an interview. Based on feedback from many of my friends at Meta, managers did _only_ paper work and hardly added any value other than filling PSC (their name for performance cycle). Meta might be going back to its roots - more doers than managers. This is one of the best moves Meta has made as a company in the past several years.

Scams usually don’t make their victims millionaires. I think that’s much too strong of a reaction.

The FAANGs I’ve been at, and especially where I’ve managed, high impact work is rarely passed over when it comes to both comp and promo. The problem is the opposite of that: there simply isn’t enough high impact work to go around. It’s a common problem in pure engineering, and one that’s becoming more obvious in management as the article alludes to.
The first article links to this [1]:

Almost all popular applications on flathub come with filesystem=host, filesystem=home or device=all permissions, that is, write permissions to the user home directory (and more), this effectively means that all it takes to "escape the sandbox" is echo download_and_execute_evil >> ~/.bashrc. That's it.

This includes Gimp, VSCode, PyCharm, Octave, Inkscape, Steam, Audacity, VLC, ...

To make matters worse, the users are misled to believe the apps run sandboxed. For all these apps flatpak shows a reassuring "sandbox" icon when installing the app (things do not get much better even when installing in the command line - you need to know flatpak internals to understand the warnings).

I'm curious as to why they seem to think this would be unlikely. Religious zealots are one of the most significant modern right-wing groups. Christians fundamentalists are a dwindling group, so it's not surprising to see others fill in the gap. Plus, most of the anti-Muslim stuff was driven by propaganda to support the oil wars. Now, the "enemy" is Russia and/or China, so that's been retired.
The claim is that a high performing E5 will get good ratings, and there is enough comp overlap between levels that their pay will be in the same range has a meets E6. (At least, this was the official stance at Google.)
Also interesting that there are three directors linked with the associated companies, all named Jamal Ahmed: one born September 1978, another born March 1978, and a third born September 1999.

Very true. So many languages people haven't heard of. It's like if not in the top 10 or 20, some think they don't matter.

In regards to Eiffel, always felt that hindrance to wider adoption was more about the licensing. Still, they are in business and in use.
The individual value of an IC outside of Meta is most certainly lower than what they get paid there. The company provides so much value that it raises the ICs value inside Meta. It's win-win.

Pushing cryptoscams and paywalling a subset of emoji-reactions made me move off of telegram. Now I use matrix and as a nice side effect I have whatsapp and telegram bridged in one app.

Of course, it's all open source with the typical lack of polishing. But nobody is gonna pull the rug under me because the company needs $$$ after acquiring users.
There's no strict technical reason for keeping Corba around. It's primarily an issue of finance. Where I work there's no real way to get funding for a maintenance task if it doesn't directly relate to a specific project (we produce a product that is utilised by various projects, and through those projects get the funding for new features, and maintenance). There's no external call to not use Corba, so we will continue to use Corba.

This is now a compounding issue, the tool that uses Corba was initially quite standalone but managers started pushing the tool as an interface to the embedded system I actually work on, this has resulted in more tools utilising Corba.

There's definitely a clever witty joke in there somewhere! More than likely though this will just fuel the "Matrix" believers a bit more, which is funny in itself i guess!

Energy generation is part of the problem. Storage is another part. All renewable energy sources are not consistent.

There are peaks and troughs in generation. I have seen solar companies cutting of panel areas from grids given the lack of demand during that hour. Storage at grid and home level has the potential to disrupt the dynamic of the energy market.

Today, a select few companies control vast amount of energy supply this control needs to be broken for better future.
I usually check out anyone we hire on Companies House. On numerous occasions we've found people with at least 3 slightly different names or dates of birth that work for the same pile of dissolved companies. Sometimes you can Google the different names or look on LinkedIn and see they are exactly the same person.

Instant strike-off.
It’s probably a bit late, but the path you should have taken was - “I’ve got some/a potential client - I should go freelance” not “I’m going freelance, now let me find some clients”.
