The Gryphel Project is awesome, and Paul’s disassembler helped me obtain a listing of the ROM for the Macintosh SE/30, which I used to debug a faulty floppy drive chip. Couldn’t have done nearly as much without his work. Hope he’s doing ok.
Are TWitter handles overseen by ICANN and IANA? Are they bound by any type of international agreement?

The problem in your example is that the people behind TPB work with the principle that any domain name might be taken away from them at any moment, unlike Mr. @music, who was naive enough to think he was immune to any takeover just because he called dibs on the name.

If you're a middle manager then you're not a company owner. Your incentives depend on how well your company is being run on behalf of the owners.

If your company is run well, you're incentivized to do more with less. If not, then the opposite.

Shareholders want the CEO and Company to do the best job they can, and do it with the lowest employee cost possible

Is that a thing you can get?
But can you host it ? (Can't find much on federation).

I use fastmail and a custom domain for my email. If I'm unhappy with the service I can migrate or host it.

If you can't leave having your own domain is not much help.

Note: I believe webfinger are supported by Mastodon too, so not so special of a feature.
What are your thoughts on NFL player Josh Allen having a $250MM contract? I fail to understand why there is more controversy over CEO pay than athletes.
reading this, I kept wondering "where the fuck is law enforcement?" people are obviously losing lots of money on such a blatant scam, and probably some of them have filed reports? It is not like the scammers are being covert about it.
Reasoning algorithms often stand out as one of the most intriguing and sophisticated areas of research. With the rise of powerful models like OpenAI’s GPT-3, there has been a profound shift in how we approach complex problem-solving and logical reasoning tasks. Beyond mere text generation, GPT-3 showcases the potential to simulate intricate ‘thought processes’, much akin to a human’s chain or tree of thoughts. This article delves into the intricacies of implementing reasoning algorithms using GPT-3, exploring its ability to emulate human-like patterns of thought and providing insights into how one might harness this capability for various applications. Whether you’re a machine learning aficionado or someone simply curious about the confluence of AI and human reasoning, prepare to embark on a journey into the cognitive mechanics of one of the most advanced models in the AI landscape.

who makes phone switches and software in the Netherlands?

I ask because I wonder if the US has unmaintained 20 year old hardware and software builds on it, since Lucent seems to have vanished around then. I mean that I wonder if spammers are taking advantage of unmaintained software, or naive antiquated laws, or both.
Sundar Pichai managed many successful Google products before he became CEO.
How long you've been doing something for matter a lot and it appears in lots of places. If I work somewhere for years, I can't be let go from one day to the next. If I rent a place for a decade, I can't just be thrown out with the three months' notice that are enough if I lived there for only a year. When the government updated the privacy law, even if you should never have been tracked without consent based on the 1995 law as well as article 8 of the human rights convention, businesses were still given two years to update their processes (2016–2018), during which time they could only get warnings. "Things always used to be this way" matters a lot.

And as I understand it, they didn't impersonate support and cause harm in that way, or pretend to be official in any other way, as in your example of calling yourself @customerservice.

I don't think either of these arguments work, especially because you did in fact draw customers to the website for 16 years so you did provide them value (your content in between their ads)
People gotta quit bitchin' about Twitter and just move to Mastodon, Bluesky, Threads or whatever.

While I agree that Mercurial has done a better job with the cli and docs for making things simple, you've linked to the reference of git-reset instead of the equivalent doc for undoing things [1] which is much simpler and covers similar cases. One thing I note is that in the doc you linked switches that are default behaviour are typed out. If I look at my shell history the git commands I'm actually typing look closer to the Mercurial doc than the git doc.

It shouldn't. Auto (the default) is designed to filter out keystrokes along with other noises, precisely because typing on the laptop is horrible for the reason you mention.

Keystrokes should only be a problem when noise suppression is set to low/off, which you want to do for e.g. playing music.

But noise suppression is applied to sending audio, not receiving it. So you might need to tell your coworkers to re-enable their noise suppression.
The original logic doesn’t go far enough.

You can build on someone’s land, but you’d be wise to be ready to move as soon as it becomes necessary. Essentially you are a nomad, reconfiguring your business to changing conditions, accepting that things will change over time.
So Spin is abandoning the scooters or their leaving is justification for looting? Also, if people are looting, isn't the more desirable thing the scooter?
Many businesses start with single points of failure. The goal is to get enough money to where this is not true, but they all start this way. Ultimately the goal is managing risk, and that often means not building out your own data center as the first thing you do.
If this means I have to abandon my clicky keyboard I give up.

I think that's just as good of an example as any. Do you think pharaohs hired and fed more slaves than they needed to build a pyramid just to maximize worker numbers, or so the extra could sit around and take it easy?

Egypt had shops and Merchants too.

Can you think of any time between then and now where things worked that way?
No.

Maybe it matters more on HN where the audience values things like grammar, logic, and empirical evidence. But we live in a bubble.

In the "old times" a video mode descriptor included things like "front porch", "sync width" and similar unpleasantries. I believe they're still used with DP/HDMI, as it's possible to play with "modelines" in Linux and adjust those params.

My naive understanding is that it's a legacy thing from CRT times, where there was a need to allow for the electron gun to adjust itself for a new line/frame.

Do those terms have still meaning in HDMI/DP/LCDs times, or they're preserved but serve no purpose now?
Terpin actually came out way ahead on this. Right after the hack, his tokens were swapped for BTC, which as part of plea the hacker eventually returned to him. Otherwise, those tokens would be worthless, as they presently are.

The medical experts are still pushing folic acid and folates, and yet it becomes formaldehyde in the body, and formaldehyde was found in tobacco and thought to be one of the causes of lung cancer, and many mothers know the dangers of consuming too much folic acid during pregnancy, like impaired fetal growth, asthma and autism.

So can we really trust the experts including govts and the WHO?

But folic acid can keep anthrax at bay, so are smokers managing inhaled anthrax spores?

In my opinion, one of the reasons why covid was released on the planet was to stimulate interest and growth for the PCR tests. Its useful for detecting pathogens in the body.

They have been using PCR tests in the US to detect drug resistant nematodes (worms) in dogs for at least a decade now, and yet here in the UK, there appears to be nothing of the sort, according to Defra. Surprising how some first world countries appear so backwards in some areas. Not saying there are no pcr testing machines in the UK, just that there is no data for drug resistant nematodes in canines.

The UK govt handling of the infected blood scandal is another example of poor management. Rather than use a US test, they did nothing until a UK test was developed, allowing people to die from crack pot theories dreamt up by doctors.

So if you cant detect a pathogen, cancer or senescent cell in the body, how can it be treated?

Thats seems to be the crux of science.

I'm surprised they don't inject mercury into cancer tumours because mercury induces mitochondrial dysfunction and cancer cells do have mitochondria. But I dont want to sound too Trump-ist, even though its used in dental fillings and is particularly useful at killing syphilis.

And when looking at cancer leeching nutrients from surrounding tissue, how is that any different to bacteria? They also need nutrients which they take from the body and they can still kill people, as can the benzene ring, a known carcinogen, found in antibiotics, suggesting heavy antibiotic use can cause or contribute to cancer and yet are also used in medicine.

I find the history of cancer treatment in the US interesting, nicotinic acid aka sunburn effect vitamin B3 was the first chemo drug, dont know what the thinking was for using it, maybe it was the dna rebinding effect it has, or maybe the prostaglandin stimulation that was thought to be useful.

But in the absence of explanations, I'm not inspired by the medical profession.

Maybe Google employees should take a vote and replace their C-suite with an AI. It would pay for itself within days.

And yet, somehow, why do I get the funny feeling that of all the jobs that will be made obsolete by AI, "CEO" somehow isn't one of them?
This is just a shitpost as far as I can tell. Spin left Seattle a long time ago, so if you happen to find a scooter somehow, I guess there's a RPi4 in it...

I love C++, but compile time prevent me from enjoying it.

I would gladly use a new version of C++ that breaks compatibility but solve this problem.

This is the largest barrier for C++ right now.
Yeah agreed. It's pretty depressing, to be honest. So many people who are really nasty and hateful.
> So just to be accurate, his yearly compensation is more like $75 MM.

But do you know he doesn't get a new "3 year vesting stock award" every year?
It seems like he was paid 3% less the year before.

That's normally the approach with vesting schedules like this, to stagger them, so there's never a "good time point" for him to leave.

That number isn’t correct to any precision and the fact that there wasn’t rounded to the nearest 10, 100 etc… means that no human would recognize it as an approximation to anything but the nearest whole number (which it wasn’t).

>calculator

Well in this case you don’t have access to a calculator because there was no plugin. And you likely wouldn’t just make up a number like chatgpt did.

This perfectly illustrates the danger of chatgpt. It will confidently make up an answer to any question whether or not it has access to specialized tools in a way that most humans won’t.

Article mode isn't perfect and not compatible with non-articles. Markdown forces content to be just content.

The point of this would be to deliver pure content, so "any tag" would definitely not be allowed. My user agent would decide what to render and how.
>Please correct me if I'm misreading this, but are you saying bad actors have an inherent right to exercise their bad actions? It's on every individual to defend themselves against whatever harm is being inflicted, and society should stand by because, again, inherent right to be awful should be protected?

Not GP, but the short answer is 'yes'. Because it is a slippery slope. I'm not in the EU and I can still reach rt.com. Presumably archive.org isn't banned in the EU, they can likely access such content if they wished to do so.

rt.com absolutely is a propaganda outlet for the Russian government, thinly disguised as a new site. But, IMHO, blocking them sets a terrible precedent as it's always the most reprehensible/unpopular/awful stuff that comes under fire first by the censors.

And if you allow that, what happens when those with power deem your expression to be unacceptable?

What's more, freedom of expression doesn't mean bad people can spew evil lies and we just have to suck it up. Rather, it means that we should have a robust debate and discussion, not because the liars/hate peddlers/etc. are right, but because defeating such garbage requires actually putting in the effort to rebuke and debunk it.

As Justice Brandeis put it[0], much more eloquently than I did, nearly 100 years ago:

If there be time to expose through discussion the falsehood and fallacies, to
avert the evil by the process of education, the remedy to be applied is more
speech, not enforced silence.

Another thing I'd like to add: don't override the scrolling behavior. Don't try to "improve" the scrolling by making it "smoother", because while it may work okay on Windows, on Mac, when using Apple input devices, there's a one-to-one correspondence between you moving your fingers on the trackpad or mouse and scrollable things scrolling. These "improvements" usually feel like scrolling through molasses.

In general, don't try to improve browser's default behavior.
Yeah, it makes some sense that you could use a more intense introspection to train weaker ones… I wonder what the human analogue for that looks like.

Maybe working up a proof and then quizzing yourself on it?

As long as we get >N supervision and the difference is more than the model retrograde, it seems that could work. But it seems like there is a definite limit to that. The N-n1 difference will only stay above the improvement delta up to a point.
I'm still upset that Raspberry Pi was focused on ensuring institutional customers (like these electric scooters) could order thousands of Pis, while leaving hobbyists trying to order single-digit quantities scrambling through years-long waiting lists and listings which get snapped up in seconds (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-_aL9V0JsQQ&t=564s).

Legally, abandoned property (at least at common law, not sure about Washington state) is up for grabs. Claiming abandoned property is not looting and not only is there nothing wrong with it ethically or legally, it’s probably for the best that it is out to reasonable use.
Because it's easier to measure an athlete's performance than to measure a CEO's.

And athletes usually have no right to fire people (at least not a lot of people at once).
> The salary of the CEO is tied to the stock price to incentivize growth

If it were a more reasonable amount I would agree, but with the amount they're given they could do a piss poor job, tank the stock value 90%, and still come out with $22M.... not much of an incentive

I don't follow sports, but at least those people are doing actual, physically comparable things with clear connections to revenue (more like music artists than CEOs).

Maybe that analogy is more apt than you intended though, in that the valuations are made for shallow human/society reasons that are quite decoupled from reality.
He did not get a golden parachute. He was compensated that amount over time. He grew a company from $400MM in revenues to $70Bn and was rewarded $1.6Bn for it. I fail to see any issue with this.
Ok, so its still not clever enough to solve a captcha though.

The code I've seen it generate is at best psuedo code.

I supposed a quick test would be getting to detect and fix all bugs in an open source project like chromium, but using an older version of chromium, where bugs are known and fixes exist, and see what it comes up with.

I havent been impressed with chat-gpt from what I have seen.

What is the fascination with poems? What emotion or feeling do they generate?
What's tiresome is that this is business as usual, not the fact that it's reported on. You can remain outraged to something profoundly unjust even if it's the systemic norm.
Sundar, like many other Google insiders, almost certainly has so much money he could just retire and live a life of luxury if he wanted to. And almost certainly he could probably choose a position within Alphabet with less responsibility like Chief Product Officer. To me it’s almost certainly a matter of the founders thinking he’s the best person in the world for the job of CEO and paying him a ton to justify the responsibility and stress of a position he could just decline.

This will sound insane but $200mm at Google scale is not even that much. All in, it’s about the cost of having another 200 SWE org or increasing earnings by like 1%. If it’s enough to keep him happy it’s easily worth it
I've been on both sides of this equation from each angle, across the top 4 social networks.

I've acquired original names, employee accounts, etc.; and have had my own originals appropriate from me by rouge employees and some crafty others.

This is a pure "what about" argument. Both of these examples are ridiculous.
Right, I understand the justifications for CEO pay. I am just saying that I absolutely do not believe that for large public companies he is 1% better than the second choice.
That “he runs” it is entirely made up as well. It’s a $1.6T company - one person doesn’t run the show.

Is he worth more? Is he worth less? Literally all of this stuff is not anyone’s business outside of their company and their stakeholders. We can’t truly have a clue what doing a “good job” is with them, or what the compensation should be.

They want to ruthlessly hire-fire talent - it’s all entirely on them as a company. Being outraged about any of it is just as naïve as buying into the idea that their monopolies are built on merit and not on elite credentials and pedigree required to join the club.

For what it’s worth, I think the enormous payouts are there so that these guys’ judgement and decision making is 100% directed only on the company’s value and well-bring. They’re supposed to be in-bribeable.
I really wish there were some platform to responsibly argue things. It could also offer establishing axioms to build arguments out from and whatnot.

I'm not aware of anywhere for people to argue their positions on most things in a civil manner.
To add on to this, unbridled capitalism also leads to more goods and services affordable for the average consumer. This makes the idea of taking a lower paying job appealing because you can still live a fairly comfortable life.
I think it's more a warning that you're never going to be able to find a standup time that's the most efficient for every attendee
