In statistical terminology, I would prefer an "unbiased estimator with low skewness", such that it's as likely to overestimate as underestimate, even if occasionally the estimates are quite far off.

But as discussed, manufacturers of course have a strong incentive to make these predictions very biased to overestimate the range.
I feel similarly. It feels like a strategic distraction from many more important things at hand. Convenient way to bury some heads in sand while they get away with other things.
Great work! It would be nice if the demo page had a game ROM ready to go. You could probably find something free and/or open source on itch.io.
In a week there will be a lot of thinkpieces on how the internet got this so wrong. A lot of people just want to believe, full of hope, because their life situations (poverty, housing crisis, hot weather) are so dire.

Maybe around the edges, but existing weapons are plenty destructive and many of them do not operate in an electronic regime except for control systems. Rail guns would probably get more effective but they're still not really all that useful and lasers might get more effective but again not really a material change to the battlefield, only an incremental one.

It's hard to develop a technology that can't be used by the military in some capacity but as such things go this one seems substantially more useful to everyone than useful to militaries.

Pushing this higher up, this is the first real expert commentary I have seen.
Battery heaters for the cold, and software and hardware improvements for charging. Current batteries can dynamically manage how they charge to optimize battery life. Batteries can precondition on the way to a fast charger. Almost all EV’s batteries are warrantied to be at least 70% capacity to 100,000 or 8 years. Battery tech improved in a thousand small boring ways, not in a flashy headline grabbing new innovation.
Think of all the workarounds that we have to use to offset the waste heat and signal degradation of electricity (everywhere, including your computer/phone), and now imagine those things not existing.
To create such a dramatic increase in critical temperature, I would expect you need a dramatic change in chemistry (as in: formula, materials,...) as well.
This makes sense to me. Watch a movie with someone who took film, especially film production, classes and have them explain it to you afterwards.
The space of possible combinations of just three different elements of the periodic table is huge. This is before you get into added dimensions of processing, ratios of each element to the others, different possible crystal structures, etc.
They have a maintenance cycle that forces the engine to run sometimes. That uses up some of the fuel and keeps all the parts lubricated.

Neither of those require attestation.

>Look at the invasive software mechanisms that games use for “anti-cheat” if you want to see one possible eventuality.

A future where people can't cheat when playing with me is a positive direction to take computing.

>This is “Right to Read” territory we’re walking into.

I assume you are talking about "The Right to Read" by RMS. It is already illegal to redistribute ebooks if you don't have the rights to do so. We already live in that world. Unlike the essay as an industry we have chosen to focus on hardware based security instead of making debuggers illegal.
I would have thought regenerative braking could be disabled by simply electrically isolating the motors. You still have the mechanical resistance of turning the rotor, but I would also think that is easier than turning over an IC engine.

> Markets are much more efficient than central planning.
Ironically large multinationals like Amazon are approximating planned economies in how their logistics are set up, especially if you compare them to what Cybersyn was intended to be in Chile rather than the stocky bureaucracy of the USSR.

I think it's a mistake to label China "communist" just because that's what its ruling party calls itself (after all we don't call North Korea "democratic" either) but it's also important to keep in mind that capitalism in China very explicitly exists only under the watchful eye of the state and the state has intervened rather drastically in the past. It's a stretch to compare it to comparatively free market economies.

> I approach foreign aid with a libertarian lens - if Chinese (or whatever nationality) companies are investing in Africa with their private capital, that's perfect. If a state is doing it, the resources will be poorly allocated and will go into a dictator's pocket.

That's not a libertarian lens, that's just assuming a difference where one doesn't exist. If Chinese companies invest in Africa, they do so to further political goals of China (i.e. the "Chinese economy"). If the US invests in Africa, it is doing so to further economic goals of US companies (i.e. the "US economy"). If a state does it, it just comes with more moral pretense and the people deciding where the money should go are usually only paid by corporations, not working for them directly.

The function of a state is to advance the interests of its economy and that is defined by its businesses, not its citizens. The well-being of its citizens is the presumed and stated ulterior motive but as history has demonstrated time and again, when it comes to sacrificing citizens or the economy, states generally favor the economy. In other words: in free market economies, politicians are the middlemen of corporations. The only difference in China is that those corporations are in turn under the direct control of the Party (i.e. Bezos is more influential to the US than Biden but Xi Jinping is more influential to China than Zhong Shanshan).

That is what I would call a slightly modified approach. They just "bake something together" and hope to get lucky. No way.

Anyway, I am not an expert. I hope they have a win here, but hard to believe at this point.
> Being an european, I would say that the first cause is cultural. Innovation for the sack of innovation isn't particurlaly viewed as positive as in the US. In many circle it's even seen as negative. Same thing for entrepreneurship, as there is a good chunk of people that see Businesses, especialy big ones, as an ennemy.

Don't be revisionist, Europe is a continent full of innovations, both industrial, scientific, and artistic

This negative mindset only appeared recently, and it seems to be spreading, so what has changed? Perhaps WW I/II, the Marshal Plan and propaganda? Looks like it's very well documented

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marshall_Plan

The death of European's giants began:

"The Americans insisted that the German coal sales monopoly, the Deutscher Kohlenverkauf (DKV), should lose its monopoly, and that the steel industries should no longer own the coalmines.[12]: 351 It was agreed that the DKV would be broken up into four independent sales agencies."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Coal_and_Steel_Commun...

It's like if Europe asked the US to break Microsoft into multiple small companies because it is too big lol

This is what affected Europe's ability to innovate, loosing its big industries and its ability to form big and global companies, instead was forced to open its market to the US which could expand its giants as they wish..

Oh and this one is interesting too:

"The loan was followed in 1948 by a free grant of $2.3 billion from the Marshall Plan, with no repayment. In exchange, French cinemas would replace the numerical quota with a "screen quota". This meant that French cinemas were required to show French-made films for four weeks out of every thirteen and leave the other nine weeks of every quarter open to free competition, namely from American films.[5]"

> There's still no practical armor, in 2023, that could protect anyone from a crossbow at short to medium ranges.

Distinctly .. not true

An average plate insert will stop any crossbow bolt

Likewise, dragon armor (I think was the brand name) is a set of overlapping, scale-like armor plate contained in a molle-compliant vest

That would stop any crossbow bolt fired from a non-crew-managed-crossbow quite handily
They're a very-objectionable topic! Complaining will continue until office spaces stop being so open.
I am a software dev and arguably even a mobile dev but I've never really owned a smartphone unless an Android Go Tracfone counts. I got that so I could receive a text to create an online account, I probably used about 10 minutes on it. I've collected an absurd number of crap Android devices (with the exception of the NVIDIA Shield I'd say they're all crap) but none of them have plans.

I was really active in social media but deleted my Twitter, Facebook and such after the 2016 election (was already thinking it was bad.) I deleted my LinkedIn around the time I got a real job because LinkedIn was bringing a lot of spam, salespeople who couldn't sell and other hustlers that wasted my time into my life.

I've been consistently active on HN for a decade+ but got most of my karma in the last 1.5 yrs, you might ask how and the answer is "with some help from my friend"

Wow, more JetBrains complaints than I expected. I’ve been using Rider for C# development for a while now (moved from Visual Studio - I’ve never been a VSCode fan) and, for the most part, it’s been worth it and my code has been the better for it. The analysis and linting is fantastic.

So far, the AI assistant in the EAP is one of the better AI integrations I’ve used in an IDE. I’ve used it for refactoring, simplification, generating XML doc comments, finding potential problems, but not much new code generation. I’ve also got Copilot, which mainly serves as a smarter autocomplete.

You do have to be careful - I’ve had it miss parameters on a refactor, but usually telling it “you missed parameter xyz” and it will correct it. But, hopefully, that’s just growing pains and it will improve.
Teams was based on Skype, which was an Estonian company and product, and also on Parlano MindAlign, originally developed by UBS Group AG, a Swiss company.

Time travel to the future is extremely exciting. Being able to pass a 1000 years in a year or two means you could observe the long term evolution of mankind over millennia. I’d much rather see that than the past if only one of the two were an option.
I agree with you, but it sometimes feels like a 'great browser' is supposed to be free, bleeding-edge while also backwards compatible, tracking-free, ad-free, and somehow altruistic and for the good of the open web.

Where are we getting these absolutely unattainable ideals from? Who can possibly support and fund such a project besides an enterprise?
What do you think the chances are of it being a measurement/instruments error?

Edited to add: I am not a physicist. I don't know the subtleties of measuring experiments, and it was not my intention to state that there was a measurement error. I just wanted to ask someone for their assessment of the chances it was an error.

It's a little depressing that people are so quick to assume the worst of others, but I get why. The online flamewars fought over every announcement of this type would definitely put people on guard. Heck, on the UAP thread yesterday I immediately leapt to snarking about extraordinary announcements being bogus and I feel bad that I probably attacked it for no reason other than to feel cool: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36886221

Some tips - I use the Samsung Odyssey G9[1]. It's curved. The curve helps with having to use your neck as it wraps around your periphery. I think in ultrawide setups a curve is a must if you're sitting close to the desk. Here's what it looks like from sitting POV[2]

Faster, better, cheaper, and a lot of it.
For context, Fefe is a rather famous German hacker and his blog serves as rumor mill for German nerds. So on one hand I wouldn't trust it that much, on the other hand it is precisely where I would expect knowledgeable people ranting about a bad paper anonymously. (And what they are saying sounds like the type of thing domain experts would pay attention to.)
Bear in mind as well, you need to be earning a ton for the tax savings to offset the price of flights + price differential of short-term housing compared to long-term housing. You may have moral reasons for not wanting to pay taxes to a particular government, and there are of course quality-of-life benefits to being able to travel to so many places that can make it worth the cost, but I'm wary of claims that such nomadship actually saves anyone money.
My point is that he wouldn't die if attestation on the web had existed, but is saying that he would be dead to try and manipulate the people he is arguing with.
"It should look like this" - until these guys made a scientific discovery and now it looks like this other different never before seen graph. This is hardly a proper rebuttal, expert opinion or not. We need these gents to try to replicate the results and then chime in. Otherwise it's just some dudes opinion. At one point the Earth was considered the center of our solar system.
Once again, no, that’s not the problem.

PostgreSQL and RDS are quite a bit more than just a log-structured data store, and are not prima facie the correct solution for this problem domain, regardless of how much arrogant ignorance you bring to bear on the debate.
It's common for cars with AWD systems where the rear drivetrain can't be disconnected by a clutch to require flatbed towing, less because the car can't physically be moved with the power off and more because spinning the wheels at a sustained high speed will cause damage to the drivetrain and potentially the engine. E.g. my moldy old Subaru requires flatbed towing, because spinning the rear wheels while the fronts are immobile will destroy the limited-slip center diff, but it's totally possible to push it along with all four wheels on the ground.

I think AWD Teslas have an independent motor and drivetrain for the rear wheels. Naively, one would expect that if you unload the rear axle motor/generator you could just tow the car with little resistance and no damage, but in practice the picture is probably more complicated. I would love to hear from an expert.
They will go after him assuming he is not a part of an apparently nearly century-long, multi-state, multi-billion dollar conspiracy that they have been perpetrating in near secret. What I'm suggesting is that if you maintain a conspiracy that vast and for that long, why would an individual lying to congress be a bridge too far? Is public testimony about second-hand knowledge all that's been stopping this from coming out in the past?

Often the game mechanics themselves aren't actually fun (at least after the novelty wears off) but players keep playing because they enjoy the sensation of winning. The player can't have fun unless they win because the game is not intrinsically fun.

You know it's a good game when you can reflect back on a match you lost and think "yeah that was worth it, I had fun."

Yeah, I think that’s a good explanation. It’s like a captcha for your device and it’s the underlying OS that handles the attestation.

The downside with this is that there will be a walled garden where custom devices are not allowed access too.

Could someone start some kind of judicial investigator process over how terrible Teams is?
Now you're being increasingly nonsensical. What, exactly, is this "really good argument"? And why would you publish something that would be career suicide?
I remember teams before the Skype acquisition. It wasn't actually a bad product (i have to admit I only ever used it on internal company networks). I also used Skype for external stuff a lot. When Microsoft bought Skype both tools went to he*.

On the actual subject I think "The EU" (really just one agency steered by a bunch of unelected beaurocrats) is way to strict regarding Microsoft and way to lenient towards for example Google. I wonder why that is. Google too bundles it's "Google meet" with it's "office suite". In fact it bundles a lot of stuff. I pay for google's services for their email (mainly antispam) service. I'm getting lots of services in addition. Then let's take Google's play store. You want application analytics? Well firebase is a Google owned service and it enjoys huge privileges on android over everything else (it can collect and send even after the user closes your app). You can even push code and configuration updates. No third party product would ever be allowed to push "unverified" code to android devices via play. How is that not monopolistic? I could name a lot more. There is not even a peep from "the EU" (I put it in quotes, because I too am an EU citizen and I disagree about a lot many of EU agencies are doing,also no one votes for these people, so they certainly don't represent me).
You don't need a huge truck to move pallets. A standard Sprinter van can carry three or four and you can get specialized vans that carry six.

I thought it would be cool. I didn't consider the fact I don't actually like it when someone else is driving. I don't like being a passenger even if a person I trust is driving, so why would an AI be different? Apparently I like to drive more than I thought I did.

Also, I didn't realize how many restrictions there would be. You have to keep your hands applying constant tension on the steering wheel, and there's actually a camera that watches your eyes now. So you can't even eat a sandwich without the car freaking out and punishing you for looking at your food too long.
tl;dr: It's a proposal to create a new set of Unicode that LLMs will output with instead of standard output so that their output is watermarked.

It would be fairly easy to undo, but the point is to create provenance for good actors, not fight bad ones.
Teams is absolutely a related product to their O365 product lines. It's extremely inter-woven into practically every other product offered. It's not like it's some completely detached and entirely unrelated product that has no connection to the others; it's literally a glue that ties it all together.

It's a part of the email service. It's a part of the calendaring. It's tied into the org structure and identity platform. It's integrated into OneDrive and SharePoint. It integrates the collaboration features of the office products. It's becoming the main portal to all of O365.
