One bomb may not have been enough evidenced by the fact that even junior level officers attempted to thwart the surrender. One bomb might have been enough. The decision to drop the second one was not entirely unjustified since the Japanese government was, apparently, in no hurry to end the war after the 1st one was dropped.

I wouldn’t really say it was lucky - the British fought a civil war to abolish it and once they tried the alternative at the time, a monarchy with reduced power seemed to be a better option than a more presidential system (a Lord Protector) and so it was re-established. The “luck” you talk about is a form of extremely long-term stability in governance that has persevered in Britain despite alternative options, due to the system being somewhat well balanced and evolved over time.

Ongoing costs aside, it’s important to also recognize that there may have been massive up-front costs to develop something like self-driving before it generates revenue, which the manufacturer should have the right to recoup/monetize.

> I'm always staying away from Brave because I've been confronted so many times with bait-and-switch tactics that I have the feeling that one day they will move away from being good and monetize all the collected data, even though they don't collect data.

The thing is that it will always get worse. Every company needs to grow in order to stay alive and eventually quality and your user experience will suffer because of this, but here's the thing: Always choose the upstart competition but just be prepared to jump to the next up-and-comer after that. For me, I found DuckDuckGo getting worse over time (probably not on purpose, just spam) and somehow Brave is better so I'm sticking with that, but as soon as Brave decides to fuck me (and they will!) then I'll be jumping to whoever the new underdog is at that time.

I think this is being unfair to modern movies and I say this as someone who loves old 70s-90s horror movies. They do have a very real
quality to them on account of the very good practical effects, comically bad "cgi", little in the way of studio staging, and often very little in the way of soundtrack. It creates a vibe that is really hard to replicate.

But modern movie style has its pros, the dreamlike quality that once your brain adjusts to the clean unreality makes it feel far more real and lets movies push further in bending reality, the truly incredible soundtracks that amplify emotional moments and build such beautiful tension, modern cgi that puts even the best horror makeup to shame, waaaaay better audio compression and mixing making jump scares truly terrifying and action hit harder, the ability to bend or break the rules of camera focus to create movies where the whole screen is sharp to show off the set or build dramatic irony for someone paying attention.

There is a lot to love about movies in the last 15 years. People seem to have forgotten how fucking good the first two

I think at least part of the reason is that in the early-modern period books as objects still had a lot of the specialness, for lack of a better word, that they had when they were entirely handmade and extremely rare. With the spread of machine production books increasingly became mere vehicles of text, with the content more or less abstracted from the physical form.

Show HN: ChatGPT code interpreter on sensitive data without uploading it
＞It sounds like you're using the term solely to mean the highest heights of formalism, but I don't know where you're getting that usage.

The keigo you refer to is the easiest keigo to learn, and much of it is learned as a beginning learner as memorized words and phrases.

In the context of the person I originally replied to, this type of content is either trivially easy to study/learn or not worth learning (e.g., most learners don’t really need to know that おはようございます is a highly stylized form of はやい — the memorized phrase and others like it are more than adequate until one is an advanced learner).

The keigo that would warrant using an AI speaking partner would, imho, lean towards the much more complicated aspects of keigo.

Note that I have actually referred this tool to folks who do training in keigo (and other language things). I’m not sure how the tool will do or what type of prompts need to be used to get the right type of engagement, but I think that there is potential on this front for advanced learners. For lower level learners, this tool is massive overkill.

Edit:

Note that most English-language web pages about keigo cover the simplest (and least interesting, imho) parts of keigo. Part of this is due to SEO, but part of it is probably due to ignorance about the topic.

For anyone interested, and if their Japanese is good enough, just search Amazon Japan for books on keigo. The topic is quite deep and can be incredibly fascinating. The content covered on English web pages just scratches the surface of the scope of keigo.

UBI is just a way for techbros to help quell the eventual calls for their heads. It will effectively be another way to cut off the masses from ever leaving their societal strata.

Now that they are awake they will do everything they can to close that door. UBI is one method. I don't have a good solution to the problem that UBI solves though. :/

That's because you don't understand.

The customer didn't pay for a car with heated seats. The manufacturer included them anyway, but disabled them in software.

Presumably, a consumer could go to the dealership and pay for heated seats as an aftermarket add-on. Or they could pay to enable heated seats (software unlock) on a month-to-month basis.

Hydrogen is a better solution for ocean shipping, long-range airplanes, and industrial processes that need very high heat. Even Elon Musk admits the last one will be necessary. Fuel cells are not a good idea because they require expensive catalyst metals. Hydrogen, in the form of ammonia running in combustion engines, is just about the only decarbonized solution that work for the big container ships. Large scale ammonia engines have been successfully tested and may go into production in the next few years for these applications[1]. For trains, it's not a good idea because you can more easily supply power with overhead wire and you don't even need to deal with batteries.

Hi HN

When ChatGPT code interpreter came out, I was amazed about it's capabilities. But at the same time, in my company, I often had the problem that I couldn't upload some sensitive data, so I couldn't use it for stuff where I would have been much faster than writing a small script.

That's why I built a tool which tries to solve this: It's not an easy trade-off between privacy and capabilities and I would be very interested in your judgement whether you think this is a useful solution.

How does it work?
- It uses OpenAI functions to connect the remote GPT-4 model with a local Python code interpreter
- The interpreter runs in a local docker container which has access to a folder with your (potentially sensitive) data
- There is a UI in which you approve inputs and outputs of the interpreter

The difficult tradeoff is not leaking your data, but allowing the model to know enough about it that it can work with it. For an image that's easy for example, but for a spreadsheet much harder.

If you have the time, I would be very interested in what you think about it.

Thanks!
You are right!

Sure, because our whole society depends on fossil fuels. We are not looking like we are even starting to move away from them, so probably we will have finished screwing up the climate before we run out of fossil fuels. At which point it will be too late for building nuclear plants anyway.

Now say we realize that today (which is very not clear) and start building nuclear plants: still it is absolutely not clear that we can remotely compensate our addiction to fossil fuels. In other words, it may well be that we need more nuclear plants in order to control the forced degrowth that's coming.

> Fissionable resources are plentiful

Actually, and if I understood correctly, most nuclear plants today use uranium 235. Which is limited. New generations use uranium 238 (which is much less limited), but they still need some uranium 235. So even there we need to transition sooner than later. And given how much f** we give about moving away from fossil fuels in order to survive on Earth, I wouldn't bet that we give a lot about transitioning to newer gen nuclear plants.
By that logic, do you think that after someone has paid for 1 month of netflix, and downloaded their entire catalog to your phone for offline viewing, that all the videos "belongs to them and they should have full access"?
Software is a legal grey area as others pointed out. In your example, the vehicle owner modified the software version and used an unsupported one. The manufacturer cannot be liable when there is no legal contract.

The problem here is that this is functionally similar to using an outdated version of photoshop but the consequences are vastly different.

Umm, I think this is more like "airlines vs passengers" when passengers read about "hidden city ticketing" in a travel blog, think it sounds cool yet haven't properly understand it, yet decide to go to town on it anyway.[0]

Since most providers are entirely at liberty to tell a customer they're no longer welcome, as a customer you have to be really really sure you want to own up to the provider as being an adversary, since you might end up needing another provider. For ever.

(Full disclosure: have been looking for, booking, and flying on less-than-entirely-legitimate airfares for a looong time. Have occasionally broken out in a cold sweat at an airport in some far-flung country on a dodgy itinerary when I think I've been rumbled...)

Forgive me I'm not super familiar with the vector indexes outside of the basic tsvector for text search.

What's the difference between pg_embedding, pg_vector, and tsvector? Are they compariable/interchangable? And how do you know which one to pick?

Sorry if these are silly questions.
>The British Royal family and the Catholic Church... those lands were stolen and should be returned to the people.

It would be impossible to determine the original owners. Every nation and tribe took land from others who took land from others who took land from others, etc. We shouldn't just give land back to the previous owners when they stole it from others.
Call me pedantic but I think using the word popular without qualifying it any further really begs for you to interpret it more generally, even in this context. Prevalent or common are better terms here in my opinion, since they regard the status quo rather than opinions.
