And the article only mentions reduction of costs with automation. Would be strange enough for some tech-oriented magazine, but this one is called "The Economist". Though maybe it is supposed to be read just as a futuristic speculation, or as an overview for people unaware that automation is possible.
2006 is too modern for me since the features are very small. I usually reverse engineer chips from the 1970s.
As an aside, I don't know why the Americans make the DMV sound like it's so much bother. I've read so many complains about this.

In other countries I know periodic car inspection is like a few hours at most, every couple of years or so (and that only starts after the car is a good few years old already).
I don’t think it’s strange. His parents are human and humans have emotions. I am not surprised Sam Bankman-Fried’s parents expressed their emotions while watching their sun in court. I bet it was really hard for them and I do not think they misbehaved. One thing to note is the judge did not punish them or eject them from the court room. That is a strong indication their behavior was fine.
I assume it’s tied to logging in or using the account while logged in. Email is a separate system, it’s possible they linked up the email system to the accounts system, but the easiest way to implement this would just be to update a timestamp every time someone logs in or makes an authenticated browser request.
It's two copies of "...where time becomes a loop." One on the left, one on the right. One of them is slightly shorter than the other, so that as they repeat again and again, they slide in and out of phase. The track ends after they come back into phase.

If you listen to this with headphones, or speakers with decent separation, paying attention to this feels interesting. It's similar to the way listening to "binaural beats" can do interesting things to your brain.

Also if you are in the habit of putting an entire album on repeat and this is one of your favorite albums, then you've probably heard this a zillion times. If you have your music player set in "randomize by album" mode, then, well, it's the first track on this album, so every time it comes up you'll hear most of it unless you instantly decide you are not in the mood for Orbital 2, and even if you're not in that mood it may be pleasant to let everything come back into phase before going to another album.

----

The next track on the album starts up entirely in the left ear, with a tinny, distant little loop, and the words "Even a stopped clock tells the right time twice a day". Once it brings in a deep bass, this bass is also doing some weird cross-ear phasing things.

And then the third track also opens with "Even a stopped clock..."; a theme has been established at this point. Time is a loop, and a stopped clock is right twice a day. The opening of "where time becomes a loop" is also a bit of a joke; Orbital's musical craft is very much about making a bunch of short loops that work together, and bringing them in and out over each other for four to seven minutes. Occasionally as much as thirty minutes, the extended version of "The Box" is glorious. This is something that utterly dominates most electronic dance music now, but Orbital was one of the first notable acts to really go hard on this, and this is their second album; they are saying "yes it's just more loops, we think they're good loops, enjoy!".

By the time you get to the last track, you've probably forgotten about Worf's repeated mantra. Especially if it's your first time listening to the whole thing and Halcyon + On + On just blew all the cobwebs out of your head. But Orbital returns to the idea, with two different loops that are very close in sound and length, played on both channels: "Input Translation"/"Output Rotation". They begin in phase with each other, drift out, and come back together. And the album is over.

Or, if you have the CD player on repeat (remember, this album is from a time when people bought CDs and probably stuck them into a one-disc player, maybe a 3 or 5-disc player if they were lucky, and the whole album is built with an awareness of this), you're back where you began, inputs translated and outputs rotated, and ready to be reminded of the Theory of the Moebius.

Time has become a loop. Come out of the trance Orbital has put you in. Do you want to experience this loop again? Does it feel rude to jump to another album before Worf's come back into phase again? You may as well let him get you back in sync with the moment the album began before going back into normal time.
“In fall”. It’s not fall yet.
(I'm familiar with the entire saga.)

TL;DR: There was no need to mention it if it wasn't relevant.

It was a doublespeak pathos appeal while simultaneously feigning apology and taking ownership in order to dodge around the requirements of 1st degree murder under then California law. The media made only a small reductionist mischaracterization of the defense's strategy apart from the truth of what it really was: a red herring and a canard misdirecting blame away from the hateful, agro murderer who got a 7 year slap (-2 years for good behavior) on the wrist and topped himself 2 years later.

California's legislature subsequently amended statutes to make it easier to get convictions for 1st degree murder as direct result of this case.
Jesus that is brutal. A dealer tool for bleeding abs? I’m holding onto my KLR forever apparently.
How can we instead defend the legitimacy of a submission?
Ironic as they’re in the same line of work.
No. The dissent has been aired. The points have been discussed. Over and over and over. There's no echo chamber.

The problem is that some people don't want to accept the consensus view that emerges from the social practice of science. They want to keep asking the same questions, ignoring rebuttals, demanding answers, assigning blame.

You don't have to accept the consensus view. But you do have to accept that the consensus view, and you being ignored by those that do accept it, doesn't happen in 10 minutes. There was no echo chamber, dissent was tackled, and now those particular dissents are handled with disrespect, maybe.

That's life, or least that's the social practice of science. And guess what, every once in a while, the minority report is correct!
What are you hoping to accomplish by labeling someone you think is acting in bad faith to be deserving of humiliation?

I've never met an irrational person that acts the way you describe. They'll usually go quiet (if you engage in debate and address all their points), shut down and then subsequently repeat the same affirmations.

My reaction to someone being humiliated is to listen to them a lot more carefully than I would otherwise, because more often than not in history these are the people that could drive our morality in the future.

One thing I forgot to put in my original comment (which you replied to) is none of us know what she was thinking. I think we should give both parents the benefit of the doubt until we have strong evidence showing they behaved improperly or our criminals.
Truthfully, based on the state of our sidewalks in the richest cities of the US like NYC, SF, Chicago, and LA— we need to be replacing them maybe not every two or three years, but at least every 5. Right now it seems like 20, if we’re lucky. Meanwhile most towns and newer parts of smaller, less affluent cities, or even wealthier suburbs don’t even _have_ sidewalks.

I think it’s ultimately part of our philosophy toward the built environment that “Europe is built with screws, the US is built with nails”— we build something that gets the job done at the time it’s built, then never come back to it. Maybe that allowed us to build fast, but now the bigger issue is maintenance of what we already have.

What exactly are you referring to here?
> "I do my own research"

This suffers from the same issue as people calling blogs or whatever "journalism" (or worse, "reporting") when its nothing more than reading what other people wrote and commenting on it. Actual reporting involves going into the field, collecting information at the site, from people and devices that are there.

And so it is for research, not always, but quite often, and almost always when it really matters. You don't do "research" by reading around, certainly not in biomedical fields. You need a lab, you need samples, you need hypotheses, you need experiments.

Yes, yes, I know that sometimes meta-analysis turns up something interesting. It's useful, but it's not the rule, and its not "research".

Tensor Trust
Premise: you have a bank account at the Tensor Trust. You can secure access to the bank account by setting up a “defense prompt” for an LLM, which is meant to ensure it only grants access to you. Account holders can attack each other’s accounts by providing malicious prompts that override the defender’s instructions. You win by having a good defense and being good at breaking LMs.
I said "people are free to have red flags that cause them to cut ties with other people" and you continue to twist what was a statement about free association into statements (that you want to argue about) regarding active discrimination.

It's rare but when you have a problem with an Airbnb, in my experience the customer support does not have your back. They are trying their best to get out of paying you or supporting you.

Booking.com is called evil on this site, but I feel much safer using them.
Firstly, congrats on make sales! You have overcome the most difficult part of starting a business, and you should be proud of it!

Regarding your product/website, I concur with the feedback given by the other commenters here.

To truly understand what they are trying to say though, I would recommend 2 books:

Obviously Awesome, by April Dunford. This talks about how to position your product to your customers.

StoryBrand : It will specifically help you how you tell you & your customer's story on your landing page

Both of these are really short books. You can read each in a day but totally worth 10x for the time you put in.

This should help you get on to the next step! All the best!
To be clear, I did not make this.
>Are you sure of that?

Pretty sure. I talk to my neighbors. I'm the secretary of the local RCO (registered community organization), we have monthly meetings with the neighborhood. I'm also an admin on the neighborhood Facebook group.

You can take my word for it, or you can look me up, if it's important enough for you.

>What's in it for them?

Well, for starters, once or twice a month, I pick up the trash on my street. I've got a roller bin, a trash grabber, gloves, and a big box of black plastic bags. I live in Philadelphia, we don't have street sweeping, we don't even have garbage cans on every corner.

I'm building a theater on the first floor. It had been a magic theater, it's going to be an intimate multi-disciplinary performing arts space. Hope to make the lobby double as a coffee shop.

When I bought this building, it was in terrible shape. We fixed it up, and during the process, discovered two colonial era privy pits, full of artifacts from the years leading up to and including revolutionary war. I've become a citizen archaeologist and something of a hyperlocal historian. I conducted my first neighborhood tour in conjunction with a local blog, Hidden City, a couple of months ago.

Let me know if you've got any other questions.
> line-granularity has good usability properties

I was reviewing a PR today and have to disagree with you. There was a single value change in a jsonl test data file. This is nightmarish to read in regular git diffs, as the change gif thought was happening was (with text wrapping) an full page worth of json rather than identifying it was a single word change. And because it is jsonl, the file could not be split into different lines without altering it’s semantics.

I don’t think it’s unreasonable we could be a little smarter here.
> nor is it committing genocide to an ethnic minority within its own borders.

America's treatment of Native Americans in general was extremely dehumanizing and brutal, but it was especially so under the command of Andrew Jackson, who enacted the Trail of Tears. (NB: And then we put his damn face on the twenty dollar bill... smh) Could you say the Natives of today are of the same health and status they were 300-400 years ago? We made that happen, as part of building up America. Most reservations now have high alcoholism, poverty, and some rely on fringe businesses like casinos or firework stands, etc. Those conditions aren't natural or endemic to their cultures. Our country is squarely responsible for the downfall of Native cultures.

That's not even touching what we did with African slave trade.

One could also argue that the concentration camps America had during the World War eras were only a few steps away from genocide. There was no legitimate reason to round people up the way they did.

There are also other events where American interests have disrupted activities, like in Panama, Haiti, Cuba, etc. Meddling with other countries trying to influence their leadership isn't just a Russian thing. America has thrown its weight around in many places it had no business in.

Maybe we could tweak our discourse into a more concrete direction? Pointing out some American propaganda might be a good start for us.

My go-to for this stuff is the way bills are named in Congress. There's bullshit like the CARES Act, EARN It Act, No Child Left Behind, Patriot Act, I'm sure there's more obvious ones I'm missing, but it's deliberately named to pre-load bias on the legislation, and to use as petty political weapons ("Wow, you voted against CARES? Why don't you care?").

The Patriot Act might be the most relevant, in the modern age. It gave so much to the government and nothing to the people. Our rights were gravely injured when that was passed and I resent our government for manipulating language in such a way to push it through.

> What is there to fear from researching the relationship between peoples personality and the position of the stars at their birth

That's not the core belief of astrology.

There very likely are correlations between personality and the season (or even month) of their birth, which for a given hemisphere will correlate strongly to stellar positions. Regular science would not be surprised to discover that (and maybe already has).

Astrology goes way beyond that, because it is fundamentally predicated on the idea that there is a causal link between stellar arrangement and personality, despite no mechanism being proposed, and despite the problem that the correlations in real life appear exceedingly weak (especially when considering northern/southern hemisphere issues.
IME if a join is the problem, a join is not the problem.
I think you make a good point, but also:

There is such a thing as pressure to automate. You could imagine a world where wage costs just stay low, and companies just keep making stuff by hand. Companies need to know that there is a cost-benefit trade to be made.

And so an article like this is nodding at that pressure from the opposite direction:

"Hey, you should be aware that automation (cost savings) are totally feasible, even if they're not realistic for you at this exact moment."

> Slower

Why would that be slower?
Ah, yes. the tragedy of modern academia, turned into yet even more tools of imperilistic control out of USA (but culturally, as English as the new Latin) against the world through physics spiraling out of the real world version of the events around the manhattan project; but backed by deep mind researchers out of the British academies (the same ones handing out completion certificates)

that academia pushes away the kind of novel creative thinkers that it needs.

that the role of preservation of knowledge has completely overtaken the role of creation of,

that somehow 'industry' (research conglomerates) together with 'academia' (rent-collecting bureaucrats of old knowledge) have failed us all?

or maybe it's just millennial (the burnt out generation) find ourselves hopeless and without real vision for any future in the time when we should be taking on the leadership roles of all these institutions?
I don't even know what you're talking about anymore. Contracts? What does that have to do with it and when did those come up?

Before, you were "not trying to be rude" about "common law," and I just demonstrated that common law has nothing to do with labor laws. Common law is judge-written law developed over centuries, as those references I gave you lay out.

Labor laws are statutory law, sometimes modified by administrative rulings. As I said at the start of this, laws are construed by judges, much like patent claims are. Whether Amazon's indirect contractors are "employees" or not comes down to judges' constructions of the relevant laws, which in turn is influenced by the briefs submitted by each side. That's why California has had voter initiatives to change the laws.

So what is the dispute, again?

> I do not recall any reputable scientist completely discounting the lab origin theory

Here's The Lancet in Feb 2020:

https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6...

The authors are in positions of considerable influence, both scientifically and directly on funding (e.g. Farrar at the Wellcome Trust). So if those don't count as "reputable", who would?

> isn't the consensus still that the virus has a zoonotic origin?

There is no conclusive evidence for any origin of SARS-CoV-2. All past pandemics of novel[1] viruses have been of natural origin; but the technology to engineer a novel pathogen didn't exist until recently, so that past tells us nothing about the relative risks of natural spillover vs. a research accident.

1. I say "novel" to exclude the 1977 flu pandemic, which near-certainly arose from a research accident and killed ~700k people. No one seems to care, and I'm not sure why.
The CDC was recommending against KN95 and N95 masks even after Omicron, so it was more like 2 years, not one month. I was also someone who wore proper masks against the advice of experts.

I agree that going with the experts is the best course of action for the general public. We need to be able to disagree with experts, but we need to be able to do it in an informed manner, with proper research to back up the ideas. However, most of the general public is unable to do so.
I can only speak for the ones I visit, which are primarily for Japanese vehicles: there's been a noticeable decline in post frequency and the info that is there has gone stale/is full of broken pic references/links.

On one of them, it's gotten comically bad, where easily >90% of new posts are from spambots, and it takes days for them to be removed after I report them.

Subreddits and Facebook are much more active comparatively, and that's a bummer in my opinion.
