To be fair in some cases rate-limiting could be triggered by a server-side issue, technically there's a 529 error for that, but I can't recall seeing it used.
But 4xx errors should exist as an indication to clients that there's no point immediately retrying the same request. If they're not honouring that, delaying before responding seems the most reasonable course of action.

Definitely a more specific patois than exists in most subgenres of music, but far from the only one. Country and R&B both have a ridiculous set of lyrical tropes. Goths have been stuck in the same limited vocab since the 80s. The coolest thing you can say about DM is it's still fairly niche.

No, you don't. I'm actually struggling to think of a more extreme interpretation of my words.

Trying something novel is fine. But trying something out, getting a single result, treating it as gospel, and not even trying to find the flaws in it isn't doing science.

It's sad that "prevent fraud" is the supposed benefit, when most fraud happens via phishing and social engineering rather than a technical exploit. And yet this is the way it would be sold to the unknowing public.

One interesting thing to consider (I have, sadly for power efficiency[1], a single-stage compressor) is a soft-start setup. Especially if planning to power HVAC from a generator for disaster recovery and not wanting to get a hugely sized genset just for HVAC startup current draw (mine has an LRA rating of 73A@240vAC, which is... non-trivial).

[1] One benefit, though, is compatibility with smart thermostats. Multi-stage/VFD setups tend to use proprietary signaling which makes using Ecobee or Nest a challenge.
This is a common fallacy that I see often on HN.

People are used to technologies that have a certain set of capabilities, where people find new ways to apply this technology over time. For example smartphones basically do the same kind of things they did 10 years ago, but people have found many more industries to apply them in (by writing apps).

AI is fundamentally different because the capabilities of the base technology are growing rapidly, at the same time as people are finding more applications for it.

So when you look into the future, you don’t just have to forecast increased applications of AI, you also have to forecast broader capabilities of the base technology. It is no use to take GPT-4’s capabilities and cast those into the future.

I'm even guilty of writing client code that just retries on failing to parse the response, precisely because the server I was working with randomly would return empty/corrupt responses for no discernible reason (it was actually Amex's API sandbox). Come to think of it, perhaps it was trying to rate limit us, as it happened a lot running our integration test suites! But the fact it returned 200 and even text/html as the content type was a bit ridiculous.

It's easy to argue that nothing is truly "free" since tradeoffs always exist--at least to some small degree--but that isn't illuminating or helpful.

I like Dio era Sabbath a lot, but it really does feel like a different band in a lot of ways. To some extent that's probably a product of developing musicianship and musical interests among the whole group, but Dio as the frontman definitely is a major vibe change from Ozzy and the sludgy occult warbles of the first few Sabbath albums.

For my money, though - thank God we got both versions. I really like Heaven and Hell and also Dehumanizer had some great tracks. And I wouldn't trade Paranoid or Master of Reality for the world.
One of the occupations listed in the appendix that will be affected are political scientists. (1.687)

My first degree is in political science. I spend four years trying to figure out what a political scientist actually does. I never figured it out.

How are we going to lose these jobs to automation, if we can barely figure out what they do or what their actual use is?

-----

On a more serious note, studies like this that take a whole swath of careers and make pronouncement about how they will be affected by AI seem relatively useless to me.

There is no way the researchers (or the consultants in the case of the Mckinsey study) can have a deep understanding of each of these careers and all the activities that are involved, what makes a good "worker" in that career, and all of that.

The "cops ODing on fentanyl they touch in crime scenes" thing is not medically possible.

It's always the cops having a panic attack from thinking they're about to OD because they touched some fentanyl. They get taken to the hospital, tested, and no trace of fentanyl is found in their bloodstream...but the media (and police) make a huge deal of it all and leave out the "and no fentanyl was found in their blood" because it's embarrassing.

The only way an officer could be exposed to fentanyl is by ingesting it, not touching it.

> there wasn't a cost effective power solution for just desalination

There absolutely is.

All you need is a bunch of mirrors to direct the sun at a chamber filled with water. The water will evaporate, the expansion into steam creates significant pressure so you can run it through a turbine, and then once the steam cools down and liquifies again, it won't have any salt in it.

It's not even remotely expensive. Mirrors are cheap. The turbines/etc are basically the same as a coal or gas power plant and mirrors are a hell of a lot cheaper than mining coal or gas. Also if you're boiling a usable quantity of water you'll be generating a lot of power, which is a handy byproduct (more valuable than the water to be honest).

"Not in our back yard" is the real issue. The chamber is generally at the top of a tower, and even painted black all that sunlight focused onto it is very bright. People generally don't want a really bright object on top of a tower anywhere near them. I guess you could build a wall around it or something, but you'll still get complaints from aircraft/etc.

Driving into the sunset or sunrise is annoying. Imagine if that was all day every day instead of just for 20 minutes or so.

Having said that, if you're in a remote area to counter the NIMBY issue, and clean water is hard to find, then the system I've described is very effective and they are being used for cost competitive farming of cheap crops.

Anyone who actually wants to desalinate seawater can do it. It's just that almost nobody wants to right now.

Anecdotally as someone who writes a lot of Typescript - which has a very expressive type system, most of the time when I need to help someone who's "fighting" with the type system the issue is that they've written a bug but the error message just isn't particularly clear. Which is loads better than them writing a bug and then only discovering it in production.

Mentally parsing the type errors is an art though - generally you want to ignore pretty much all but the bottom 1 or 2 lines - the rest is a bunch of very verbose information at a much higher level of abstraction than you care about.
That wouldn't get the authors attention though.

Quote: Nahua philosophers saw humans as creatures yearning for rootedness — i.e. for a deep, firm, and lasting anchoring for their lives — and who restlessly search for it. Obtaining well-rootedness enables one to become an “upright man” (tlacamelahuac, trans. by Lopez Austin 1988:I,p.189) and to live a balanced, pure, and genuinely human life. Without roots, one finds neither balance, purity, nor humanness. Obtaining well-rootedness is difficult, and in their search many humans give their hearts to what appears to be well-rooted and authenthic but is not. Since this cannot provide grounding and stability, humans eventually become dissatisfied with it and abandon it, only to begin their search anew, often times repeating the process over and over again. Their hearts eventually become scattered, unbalanced, and lost (Lopez Austin 1988:II, Appendix 5). As Nezahualcoyotl put it, “If you give your heart to each and everything, you lead it nowhere: you destroy your heart” (Cantares mexicanos fol.2, v., trans. by Leon-Portilla 1963:5). Such humans become vagabonds, wandering about aimlessly from one illusion to the next. They become beastly, unstable, unbalanced, impure, perverse, dull-witted, intemperate, and vicious. They fail to realize their humanness and merely appear to be human. They become deceivers, rogues, and dissimulators. They “act on things with [their] humanity dead” (Lopez Austin 1988:I,p.189). They are “lump[s] of flesh with two eyes” (Sahagun 1953-82:X,pp.3,11) and “defective human weight[s]” (Sahagun 1953-82:X,p.11, trans. by Lopez Austin 1988:II,p.271).

> But one of the aspects of types that I find useful is the documentation they provide.

For me this is one of the core aspects. Self-documenting code makes me so much more productive, and being able to reason about code thanks to the types without having to consult the documentation is very powerful.

Any time I work with JavaScript, Python or similar I invariably waste time having to do print(dir(foo)) or similar, just to figure out what the hell some function returned and what I can do with it.

This is cynical conspiracy theory conjecture. The DEA, like an organization, has self-preserving inertia. Sure. But mostly it is hard working, well intentioned people who want to end a scourge on society. You may disagree with the policy, but that doesn’t mean the whole organization is a malevolent, self-serving farce.
As jwells89 mentioned, LLMs can extract the intention from questions and generate better queries for a search engine or database.

"Automation does remove jobs, but so far it's done so on a small scale compared to what AI will do."

I used to be one of those people who really tried to just power through and rush through the drive every time, massively minimizing my stops. It felt pretty easy as a single guy doing this.

Now I'm married with kids. Even road trips in my ICE, I tend to stop more often and for a little longer than I would have otherwise. And you know what? Overall, my road trips are more enjoyable. I'm far less drained when I arrive. I'm less stressed on my drive. I'm more alert in the car for more of the trip. Its a much better experience in the end taking a few more breaks on a long road trip, and I look back at my previous min-maxing attempts in regret of stressing myself out so much unnecessarily.

The road trips I've done in my EV have been absolutely pleasant, and my EV isn't even that great for road trips.
I'm sure the DEA man on the street is hard-working and well-intentioned yes. My comment was more about its leadership and the political forces that created it and the current system of policy.

But I'm sure even the lowest DEA agent knows they are fighting a never-ending battle. They will never 'end' this scourge this way. The better funded they are, the more scarcity they create and thus their cartel enemies make more profits and become more ruthless and well-equipped. They will never solve this problem by force and it's the only thing the DEA is designed to do.

I'm not blaming them per se. Rather the system that created the DEA and the current policies. They are just slaves of the system like we are. No politician wants to be seen to be 'weak on drugs'. Funding 'winners' with guns is politically great. Funding help for 'losers' sleeping on the street is not. So the theater continues.

I think what's needed is a realist approach. Think about the pain and suffering some drugs cause. Prioritise there. Heroin for example is a real hard path down to destruction and death once you start. It should be banned at all costs. I totally agree there.

However meanwhile America has finally realised that Marijuana is not so bad recreationally, but why is it still a Schedule 1 drug just like Heroin?

And at the same time Cocaine is heavily used in nightclubs and bank trading floors and really has heavy addiction and long-term damaging properties (though people seem to be managing ok with recreational use) yet still it's only Schedule 2?

I don't think drugs like Cocaine and Marijuana will ever stop being commonplace. So why not just accept and regulate them? America took 10 hard years to realise prohibition didn't work, yet this time it takes far too long to get the message.

In Holland we have always lead the way on legalisation though the current government has backtracked this somewhat leading to big cartels springing up, doing gunfights on the streets of amsterdam, with people ducking for stray bullets on the tram. Sometimes it seems, the message needs to be learned multiple times.

PS: I'm saying this as someone who has never used any drugs beside alcohol.
