>It shouldn't have to do the latter. That's clickbait.

clickbait generally has an implication of incorrectly representing the content. romanticized titles aren't always clickbait, and I wouldn't say this is exactly a sensationalist tite like how others may say "We're on the first road to curing Alzheimer's disease".

>People are either organically curious about what actually happened or they are not.

it's a prisoner's dilemma. It's not necessarily zero sum, but attention is somewhat finite. And for some sites, the result isn't a more comfy high quality community. It just dies out, and that benefits no one.
I'm with you on this one.

Probably the confusion comes from the fact a lot of people think having a verb in their URI makes the API RPC, while only having nouns is the proper REST.

But the whole verbs vs nouns debate in the context of REST sounds a bit like... arguing whether building a round or square control tower out of straw will attract more cargo.

HATEOAS is the cornerstone of REST, this is what sets it apart from RPC-style applications, not the absence or presence of verbs in URIs.

Think of a regular (that is non-SPA) Django, RoR, etc application.

The user points their browser to the app's home page. The backed receives the HTTP request, renders the HTML, and sends it back to the browser.

The browser renders the HTML and lets the user interact with all the control elements on the page. When the user clicks a button or follows a link, the browser sends the corresponding HTTP request to the backed which inspects it and decides what next HTML page (or maybe the same) representing the state of app should be transferred to the user.

This is basically REST. The key to notice here is at no point in this example the browser gets to decide what the app's "flow" is supposed to be -- this is the sole responsibility of the backend.

A consequence of this is the entire structure of pages (aka resources) can undergo a drastic change at any moment, but as long as the home page URI stays the same, the user doesn't suddenly need another browser to access the app.

If changing a resource's URI, or removing a resource altogether can break an existing client, if an existing client cannot make use of a new resource without changes to the client's sources -- that's RPC even if there's not a single verb in the API URIs.

Most likely this architectural style isn't something that first comes to mind when we think of today's mobile apps or SPAs as API clients. And in my opinion it's just not a good fit for most of them: the server isn't expected to drive their flow, it just exposes an API and lets each client come up with its own UX/UI.
A ridiculous and uninformed article. This is a great example of the type of magical thinking we often see when it comes to issues like this. The reality is that changing the behavior of superemitters is not nearly enough to make a difference, compared to the sum total of the emissions of ordinary people.

Let’s redo the headline:
- People driving their kids to school is driving the climate crisis
- People having enough to eat is driving the climate crisis
- People taking nice vacations with their families and friends is driving the climate crisis

The problem doesn’t seem too easy to solve now.

Just as we can’t fund a robust welfare state by taxing the rich alone (everyone must pay high taxes for it to be enough), we will do nothing about climate change by focusing only on superemitters (most aspects of life must be decarbonized if we’re going to stop climate change).
> Roots undergo semantic shifts in their meaning. So English "deer" is cognate to German "Tier" despite the fact that Tier means animal in German, but only one specific kind of animal in English. The German meaning is the original one for the root; in English it shifted to the more specific meaning.

And if you go back and read Old English and Middle English texts you can actually see this happen! From https://ahdictionary.com/word/search.html?q=deer

> In Middle English texts one finds a fish, an ant, or a fox called a der, the Middle English ancestor of our word deer. In its Old English form dēor, the word referred to any animal, including members of the deer family, and continued to do so in Middle English, although it also acquired the specific sense "a deer." By the end of the Middle English period, around 1500, the general sense had all but disappeared.
Exceptional work! Looking forward to trying it out
Ah, it's rather hard to find but I do indeed have Epic PLY, thank you for the information. I shall investigate. There may be more abilities there than I knew about.

Still, sad that I have to go to HN and actual tech workers in completely different places to figure out how to use a system that is nominally under control of my own hospital. I don't blame you for not giving doctors admin access; I don't need it and quite a few would make a total hash of things, but I'm a lot more curious and a nice free playground where I could do things like schedule cases would be fun. If I break it, so what? It will reset tomorrow, and I'm fine with that. If I have a play day, I'll apply my notes for everything I have done and ask the IT team to make a snapshot.

Again, thanks.
There are loads of examples that terrorists love blowing up planes.

There are plenty of terrorist bombs that screening stopped (search the famous El Al case), or alternatively that terrorists were able to successfully bypass which led to stronger rules in the first place (e.g. the shoe bomber), or which they planned (e.g. the Bojinka Plot).

I can easily buy the argument that a lot of other commenters are making that a lot of the specific rules can be improved, or that there are other targeted approaches that could work better. What I absolutely don't buy, because there are plenty of examples to the contrary, is that screening itself is unnecessary.
Tailwind does a better job at enforcing a set of standards in the codebase. Specifically around things like spacing, text sizing etc.

This doesn't preclude enforcing it directly in the CSS files, but it does make it a lot easier.
If someone had an anecdote about, say, interviewing at one of Elon Musk's earliest ventures, that's an Elon Musk story, especially if it tells you how the company is run.
> I agree with your general point but ironically you yourself now try to link language to genetics (skin color).

The link is very strong for the obvious reason that everyone learns to speak to their parents.

My point is that things happen to break the link, not that the link can break for no reason.
It's incomplete, though - my archive for my old accounts misses all media (including the profile of my long-deceased cats...), and it's a bit useless because while yes I could probably import it into some fork of Mastodon, that doesn't mean the "social web" still works as there is no federation between Twitter and Mastodon.
Yup. $1M/yr (the example I provided above) is a massive reward, so taxation in this way (leaving the risk taker huge rewards) is a great way to encourage entrepreneurship while ensuring a better society by using the extra money (taxed) to give him better streets, lower crime, and a better educated workforce/neighbours.
Maybe rare and unpopular to think about, but a one-time check allowing less scrutiny for future boarding is a gift to radicals who may not care about living beyond One Big Act.

Also, agreeing with GP, it generally creates a lower class of government trust based on wealth.
Stop working. Stop earning income. Make due with what you have in the bank.
It doesn't work, because "enough" here would have to be something like, maybe everyone lives in a small apartment in a city, is vegan, and doesn't travel much or at all.

Ten mil is way higher than that. It's probably more like a 50k or lower income with no wealth.

For me and for a lot of people I know, this would be a significant downgrade and I'd rather compete to maintain or improve my quality of life.

I don't have ten mil, but if everyone lived like me, we would be buggered.

The idea that capitalism should go to a point and then be stopped is a pretty standard one from Marx. He greatly admired capitalism but believed once it made people rich it would no longer be needed and the workers would naturally take over through revolution. That’s not to say you’re wrong just because you agree with Marx, but rather you should consider why you are so attached to this idea. Marx’s ideas are a type of religion dressed up to look scientific via “historical materialism”. It’s appealing to believe that time is under humanity’s control rather than something outside of humanity, but there’s strong reasons to believe that is false (the universe will last much longer than humans will).
Here's how to not smell.

1)Stop washing your body with the awful, artificial-perfumed crap sold by P&G and the likes. Guess what all that artificial perfume crap smells like after a few hours? Use naturally scented soaps and shampoos, with a washcloth or loofah (gently) to remove dead skin, and rinse with the washcloth or loofa unsoaped to removed excess soap.

2)Stop using fabric softener (which you shouldn't be using on sports clothing anyway.) It's basically rendered fat loaded with artificial perfumes. And people wonder why their clothes are rank...

3)Stop using scented laundry detergents. On sports clothing, use a "sport wash." Atsko band is the cheapest I've seen. If you want to "test drive" it, Penguin Sport wash is the same stuff, just sold in retail stores for more $/oz. Exactly the same stuff.

4)Use a bit of vinegar in the first or final rinse. You can get 20% vinegar in some places for convenience, just beware that it will knock you on your ass if you get a really good whiff of it, and you should rinse it off your skin quickly. Vinegar will among other things help kill mold spores (bleach does not!)

5)Clean out all the nooks and crannies in your washer, the dispensers, door seals, etc. Once in a while run the hottest cycle and a cup of citric acid, or a bunch of vinegar.

My expensive-ish cycling clothing, after a ride, goes straight into a bucket of lukewarm water (spandex/lycra deteriorates in strength and stretch very rapidly at surprisingly low temperatures) with about a third of the bottlecap of sport wash. I give it a good swish and go shower. I give it some agitation after I'm done showering and changed. At some point I'll rinse it thoroughly. The cycling shorts get rolled up in a cotton towel and stepped on to wring them of excess water. Everything goes on a clothes hangar out in open air. If I'm riding again in the morning, or if it's humid, I point a small fan at everything so that the pad dries out quickly

I don't use deoderant. Multiple partners have complemented me for my body smell, or lack thereof. Because I don't coat my body and clothes in shit cranked out of some frankenlab at Proctor and Gamble.
I notice you used the strong emotional word "ruining" when talking about the effect on Python of this change.
Why do you believe an obscure runtime concurrency detail which will make more things possible will "ruin" the language?

Now match and :=? Those definitely ruin the language. ;-)

But seriously, relax, nothing bad is happening here. It's not just people who have to use the torch launcher who have been bitten by Python's currently-terrible multicore story. I've been a Python programmer for 15 years and I think this is a wonderful change.

He makes some good points. I think the only response is that americans are simply not ready to swallow the bitterest truth that the atomic bombs were unnecessary and an unjustified moral abomination. The film would not have been a success if it had taken that line.

Grants are ALWAYS tiered based on biased political factors. That's why they are "grants". Someone heavily invested in finding answers is willing to give money away to achieve that end. In this case, the government is heavily invested on ideas that can stimulate their economy.

I don't even know what can be done here. Take money out of acedemia? Maybe in a post scarcity world.
> IMHO we need a cure that isn't worse than the disease.

Agreed, but you need to realize that one of the symptoms of the disease is the destruction of global civilization as we know it. That's not something we're going to see tomorrow, or in 5 years, but in 10-20 years, if we continue on with the status quo, I would say it's quite likely.

> I think it could satisfy both hard-core capitalists AND environmentalists

Unfortunately not. All the things you mention (air travel, billionaires, etc.) are things that are literally responsible for accelerating the destruction right now.

As far as "draconian" goes, we had 50 years to get something done. We're down to about 5 years before we start seeing the first tier of real consequences now. Draconian is pretty much where it's at for the next several decades, if we're thinking realistically.
She uses dragon for notes, but she said it’s too much of a mess if you just let it record everything while talking to the patient.

Even if it did work, the notes for future doctors and insurance companies have very little overlap with what you’d say to a patient.

Niger-Congo does not belong to the Afroasiatic language group. I mentioned Nigeria because of Hausa. Obviously I would no more assume that the Hausa are a basal Afroasiatic group than that any Ethiopian group is.

So are you then saying that nothing humans do is derivative?

How many books and movies are just retelling one of a handful of original stories in a different way?

That's all ai does, it builds upon existing works just life we do.

It wrote an entire very accurate book outline for a book about langchain a tool it knew nothing about. I only fed it very basic info, not the whole docs. Clarified a few things it got wrong etc...

Many of the claims against it is that it can't do x thing that "some" group of humans can do even if it's someone many others also can't do.

I guarantee you, it can write a better proof or get closer than I ever would.

IMHO one of the things it really lacks is a purpose or drive. Without a desire and without rewards for learning shit, it'll only learn the basics it needs to formulate an answer.

Curiosity, intrigue, desire, even if we could fake that, might lead to some interesting things. Also adding senses and multi modal things.
> Data moats must end, or we'll be doing this same stupid dance every few years when the next MySpaceBookTokDit enshittifies and takes everyone's social data with it.

Data moats haven't been a thing since GDPR passed and everyone implemented "data dump" features as a result.

The real problem is the lack of federation requirement. Say I'm a competitor to Facebook - what use has a potential customer of mine from an import feature when there is no way for my service to interface with the customer's Facebook friends?

My “walk away” number is also $10M (in 2018 dollars, based on when I concluded that target).

Trouble with climate is my carbon footprint would likely go up in retirement rather than down, from the time and resources available to travel. Walking around my town and puttering around waiting to die isn’t my ideal retirement; doing that while having the money to do 10x more fun things is worse not better.

(Side note: I don’t expect to ever retire with $10M in even then-current dollars unless we quickly go Weimar in inflation terms.)

After 300k years ago people are called anatomically modern humans, not “final copy” humans. Evolution never stopped. And even if evolution did stop, consider that developing primitive technology, language, and culture (eg wearing of clothes, a notion of “fairness” or “justice” so conflicts can be resolved without killing people) into something that’d allow humans to be as environmentally adaptable as they are today could itself take a long time.

Humans didn’t “stay in Africa” and early Homo sapiens certainly didn’t wait until 10k years ago to spread across the planet. Going off memory here but pretty sure the current theory is early Homo sapiens started to spread out of Africa about ~70-60k years ago. 10k years ago is around when agriculture and “civilization” began.

Also other hominids, arguably a kind of human, like Neanderthals and homo erectus had left Africa well before 100k years ago - considering they were probably more adapted to their environment in many cases it’s not that far fetched to think their presence generally made it harder for early Homo sapiens to displace them or coexist with them, given they’d occupy similar ecological niches.
Impulse control in general is something that would vastly improve nearly everyone's life to a massive degree. Don't instinctively reach for your phone. Don't add cookies to your shopping cart. Don't thoughtlessly lie to get out of an uncomfortable situation. Don't open hacker news.

I have spent the past couple months with my time off work working on this all day every day. It's made a massive improvement in my life, my habits, my routine, and working towards the things that are meaningful in my life.

Obviously I'm not faultless - I'm still here on a quick break.
>It doesn't work

You don't know that. It hasn't been tried, and I daresay you don't even understand what I'm proposing.

One neoliberal capitalist way to implement the Enough system is to make agreement to it a condition of your employment, and also a condition of your investment. You agree to retire and divest as soon as you earn a certain amount. At work, you vacate the role and let someone else try it out. With your investments, you sell and let someone else be a stakeholder.

Atsko (also known as Penguin) sport wash will get out that smell, guaranteed.

In the wintertime just hang your washed clothes on a drying rack, either wall-mount or free-standing or what have you. "Free" humidification. Also air-drying works a lot better with front-loaders, which you should be using anyway because they use vastly less water and detergent and are much gentler on clothing.

My expensive-ish cycling clothing, after a ride, goes straight into a bucket of lukewarm water (spandex/lycra deteriorates in strength and stretch very rapidly at surprisingly low temperatures) with about a third of the bottlecap of sport wash. I give it a good swish and go shower. I give it some agitation after I'm done showering and changed. At some point I'll rinse it thoroughly.

Do you have a reference for when the Internet as a whole was supposed to cut over to IPv6 only?

There are plenty of organizations that have transition mandates but those are self imposed and would easily be delayed for other monetary business objectives. The Internet as we know it was only created/available in 1993[1] and while some RIR's have exhausted their available IPv4 space it doesn't mean IPv4 addresses are not available.

I'm more curious though whether your laundry habits help lycra/sportswear last longer - it typically starts to wear embarrassingly thin and fade within 3 years of regular use for me.
Stop consuming what exactly? Shelter, climate control, transportation, food? It is not like Starbucks and luxury handbags are causing the bulk of emissions.
Why this rather than a tax

Taxes are unpopular. The policy of Enough can be done voluntarily. In fact, I've toyed with the idea of starting a company who's employment agreement requires agreeing to the conditions of Enough. I think it would even be useful for individuals, in private, to consider what their own Enough number is.

Also, taxes don't try to curb unbounded greed and growth. The Enough policy acknowledges unbounded growth is actually the biggest problem.
Though there’s definitely differences in how cotton wears, I’m not sure there’s a strong correlation with what grade it is.

I have a few pure cotton undershirts and tshirts I picked up at the equivalent of a dollar store for ¥100 a piece as a broke college student in Japan around a decade ago, and while they’re showing plenty of wear from having seen hundreds of workout hours and laundry cycles, they’re not exhibiting pilling or texture change at all.
You realize that $10M can throw off about $400K/yr for a very, very long time, right? To describe that as “making [do]” seems a little disingenuous to me.

Which is more likely?

A) A company that got rejected from YC's Early AI interview batch has figured out not to get rejected?

B) A company that got rejected formed a theory about why which absolves them of blame, and means that they do not have to ask how their application was weak?

I'm voting for B unless the rejected company has managed to put up a strong enough independent success signal that it is clear that they should have been accepted, and they don't just have sour grapes over not being accepted.

This goes doubly so given how much YC itself stresses personal qualities of the founders over the idea they started with. Trends in the ideas in companies formed therefore have more to do with what companies are pushed towards, by market forces or YC, than with the mix of starting ideas.
The funny thing about the link that you give is that the hypothesis around intravenous Vitamin C is literally the exact opposite around Pauling's beliefs of oral vitamin C.

That is, taken intravenously, Vitamin C generates free radicals like hydrogen peroxide that are particularly dangerous to cancer cells. This is the exact opposite of oral administration of Vitamin V where it acts as an antioxidant.
