I've always thought that inflation causes stocks to suffer, for a couple reasons. One, higher interest rates on government bonds means risk free interest rates can approach, or even exceed, the typical expected return for the stock market. Second, inflation reduces consumption, which reduces profits.
> space exploration should be left completely to the private sector, not just the execution,

If you’re fine with there being no space exploration whatsoever. Which is a reasonable view, it’s very expensive and highly unprofitable.

Why would a (rational) private corporation ever send a rover to mars or a drone to titan? It would be an absurd thing to do..
You're starting to sound a little like Terry yourself towards the end there. How do you see a religion in enthusiasm around AI, and worse nothing else at all?

I think you're stretching the word religion very far from its meaning. No one is deriving any meaning or analogy to the world from AI beyond the answers to technical questions. Certainly no one attributes moral authority to AI?

The hype is about its applied value, not some new insight into the world.
Exactly. That's another feature of the Free Market Fundamentalists - their analysis always stops short of asking any relevant questions.
Always good to see ESPHome getting used! I just discovered it a few days ago and it seems to be one of the coolest things in DIY tech since Arduino and the ESP itself.

This subthread started with a discussion about how "HN itself also shadow flags submissions" [1]. That's a slightly different form of moderation than the t.co delays.

Another commenter argued "Increasing cost of attacks is an effective defense strategy."

I argued it is not, and you said adding a delay can cut out bad stuff. Delays are certainly relevant to the main post, but that's not what I was referring to. And I certainly don't argue against using secrets for personal security! Securitizing public discourse, however, is another matter.

Can you elaborate on GreetPause? Was it to prevent a DDOS? I don't understand why bad requests couldn't just be rejected.

Not as a counterpoint but just to add some context: I used Chrome when it just came out. For a week. Couldn't stand it any longer - it was buggy as hell. Of course, now it is polished and the user experience is completely different.
It might be true within a very narrow scope but is irrelevant. There is no path to climate change mitigation that involves population control that isn't substantially worse than than problem. Just as individuals' decisions are only relevant when taken in aggregate, so too should an individual act as though their behaviour was an aggregate one.

Climate change solutions can only be implemented at the societal level, as is becoming abundantly clear.
The paper you cite in [1] is interesting and worth reading. However, it doesn't support a claim that fires on Hawaii have nothing to do with climate change (and of course it says nothing whatsoever about fires elsewhere -- Hawaii's weather, and climate, are extraordinarily localized).
@dang, could you fix it?
As a consumer, if I was obligated to pay to file a claim with a payment provider I'd be disincentivized to use that payment solution. Also, if I had a real issue and the fraud system failed to evaluate the case properly/competently then I'd immediately cancel my account and avoid further use.

> Serious question - Why? Assuming no actual CP was used in the training of the model who is being harmed

I don't think an AI model could generate realistic CP without being trained on examples, which would mean there is literally no way for this assumption to be true.
The scientific literature pretending that gut feeling does not exist, is, in my own opinion, a legend. Most discoveries/invention were stumbled upon by collective efforts, a bit of intuition, lots of work, and a share of luck. Once something is found/made, then we clean up so as it can be shared and taught.

Scientists always had gut feelings, routinely shared and share their feelings, it's what makes most of discussion between scientists. It was always ok to have feelings. However, to build something somewhat reliable, feelings are not enough, so you do the work to turn a feeling into a falsifiable theory that ypu put to the test.
Something like: polytheistic anthropomorphic gods don’t encourage humans to think abstractly.

An abstract God concept that is infinite, endless, etc. encourages humans to understand and justify/argue against such an entity, in the process forcing them to think in more abstract ways, which in a basic sense is what mathematics is. This is more-or-less the history of intellectual thought in the Western world since Christianity until fairly recently. (Dominated by God-adjacent topics.)

A question I might ask in researching this would be: why does it seem like mathematical development really accelerated in Europe after Europe had been thoroughly christianized? Throroughly here not meaning recent, but “sunk into the psyche over centuries.”

It's a big project; they had senior developers with experience in building browsers, who realised that this would all of that plus the rest. They also knew that the 1.0 release would only be the beginning of the project, so the setup needed to be good, and the development practices needed to be sustainable.

This differentiates senior developers from the rest I think. Mind you, I can also understand why a lot of people - myself included - think "what's the point", given how (in my own experience), a lot of software - mainly front-end - is replaced every 5 years, and major architecture overhauls every 10.

My current employers is currently replacing their SAP-to-API middleware with some commercial point-and-click software to, drumroll please, AWS lambda functions written in Typescript. It's an improvement, because there's more transparency and performance measurement instead of things hidden behind a GUI, but it's also a risk because it's set up by consultants who will eventually move on to somewhere else.

Already there was suddenly a presentation that came across as Authoritative about how they have Chosen to use Kotlin. I don't know for sure if that was to replace typescript but... it really doesn't matter to me tbh.
Kinda like how Mark Twain wrote The Adventures of Tom Sawyer as a parody of Horatio Alger's moralizing novels. Tom is the opposite of an Alger hero: instead of succeeding through hard work of his own, he succeeds by manipulating others.

It's not called "the bitter lesson" for being optimistic.

One of the points, I think, is that there is very little a researcher in the 70s could have done to make progress on these problems, because the computing power just wasn't there yet; and once the computing power was here, almost all of that 70s researcher's work became obsolete.

I am a not-good-at-ui dev, meaning I _can_ build UIs pixel perfect if given some exact design files, but it is incredible hard for me to come up with things on my own. So whenever I build something that is not already defined fully by designers (like: most of the time), I have to use some UI component catalog like bootstrap and start assembling my UI based on the options there, at most I switch a theme file to something more fancy.

I basically was squarely the target group of bootstrap, and used it for lots of projects in all versions. I didn't actually care much about their technical progess (float, flex, css-grid, whatever), I just copypaste from the available widgets and add in my data.

Just LAST WEEK I learned that my favorite web framework (https://phoenixframework.org/) now ships with Tailwind preconfigured by default. I also heard good things about it from trusted colleagues. So, for the next big project I decided to jump in. Still I kind of have concerns: I need "typical components" like cards/tables/grid/... to be only a copypaste away; and I need to allow some designers be able to tweak the overall look and feel, roughly like a theming file where fonts/colors/... are defined at a single place. I hope it will be smooth after all these years of bootstrap and the "muscle memory" of how to compose pages with it.
Personally I think this should be a criminal matter not a civil one.

The small part that is civil is the actual damages. Like measurable material damages. The criminal law system exists to protect non-material things, the civil to deal with material damages. So you should go to criminal court for your mistreatment as a person and civil for your material losses. Make sense?

Civil damages in this case should be limited to things like lost income, lawyers costs, the effects of damage to her credit history, return of money stolen, compensation for the time required to deal with unnecessary BS, maybe the cost of some therapy.

This would also be much safer for everyone, from the victim to the accused:

* Currently there is no reason to assume he will stop. He's not in prison and have nothing to lose right? If he were in prison that would make continuing quiet difficult. But he isn't.

* And there is no reason to think he is guilty either, since he's not actually been tried in criminal court and it isn't clear if he even had a lawyer. Yet his life is ruined (rightly or wrongly who knows?).
There are I think few examples of a single animal being 'taken care' of simultaneously by millions of people, be they benign and malign.

I believe Revolut is working as intended.

The root issue is that BOI have/had an issue trying to retrieve balances. At which point they have two options: prevent transactions if the balance cannot be verified (which would deny people access to their own money), or allow transactions if the balance cannot be verified (which enables people to go overdrawn).

SEPA transfers are near-instantaneous, this isn't access to funds that haven't cleared, it's access to funds which have already been transferred. None of this is really specific to Revolut, they're just the most common reason for "the man on the street" to have a second account to receive a transfer.

For anyone who has been in web dev for long enough I can assure you there's nothing cleaner and more maintainable than avoiding CSS frameworks.
Oryx definitely did a great job, before he was documenting small conflicts but with the Ukraine/Russia war its not a surprise being burned out recording data for that.

There was definitely lots of errors accumulated with things like T72s being marked as Russian vs Ukrainian losses. There was corrections to this but when you are relying on Telegram, Twitter and other social media sources they aren't going to be reliable.
Trawling data and sanitising it... no thank you
Third party intermediaries, a.k.a. so-called "tech" companies, are a PITA. This proxying of URLs, i.e., redirecting through the intermediary's servers, is sadly commonplace, providing the intermediary with a wealth of data on what external links are followed by computer users leaving the so-called "tech" company websites. Facebook does it. Google does it with Google News. IIRC, Facebook has defended the practice as being some sort of safety measure for Facebook users. If true, that's great, but are there any legally-enforceable limits on collection of data on peoples' browsing habits in the process, or its subsequent use. Nope.

Here, we see how this redirection of external URLs can easily be used to manipulate and frustrate. Alongside of Facebook and Google's quarrels with certain governments trying to protect their news media, and subsequent removal of news for certain audiences, it's another example of so-called "tech" companies interfering with computers users' access to news. IMHO, we need to get away from using these self-interested intermediaries and start getting news directly from its sources.

To be clear, the issue IMO is not why a so-called "tech" company intermediary might interfere with computer users trying access news, it is the fact that they can.

UK wages grow at a record pace, nearing the inflation rate – CNN Business
For the same reason that people can afford food even though a minority is able to buy all the food.Just because a minority can buy something doesn't mean they will. If it gets easy enough to build more housing then it won't make sense to buy houses as an investment; the threat of oversupply would be too great.

FWIW, unrelated to this topic, I think we should adopt Georgist tax policies. That has nothing to do with inequality and it would resolve the situation of wealthy people buying property neatly.

Courts spend a fair amount of effort on finding the most similar older sentences and making this sentence sort well with the older ones. That's reason.

In this case, I'd expect the court to look for older harassment cases, stalking, that kind of thing. $1.2B is effectively an infinite sum of money with no jail time and nothing else (AFAICT he's not blocked from living hear her or from using facebook, etc), so it sounds like a corner, not something that sorts well with other harassment/stalking cases.
For me it won because I view tailwind as vanilla CSS with a nicer syntax (mostly) and sane defaults that makes your website look decent out of the box. With the prettier autosorting plugin, the classes are ordered in a predictable fashion, making it easier to read than one would imagine.

It's not a perfect replacement for vanilla CSS and I still fall back down to writing plain old CSS for stuff like box shadows or more interesting grid layouts, and using tailwind modifiers like different screen sizes is less than ideal with having to prefix every single CSS property with the same modifier.
The Guardian was only re-reporting that the Washington Post wrote a report (which did reference HN, but put "...after Washington Post analysis" in the strapline), not doing any kind of active journalism that would involve verifying anything or checking sources. "People are saying", basically.

I suppose by not directly linking to original source, they don't have to worry about if the WaPo (or HN) fluffed the analysis: after all, the WaPo did report on it, whether or not it's true, accurate or even correctly sourced is immaterial to the Guardian. It's completely devoid of journalistic talent (and I imagine well in the wheelhouse of generative AI, actually) but it fills slots on the website so you don't look "behind" on the news compared to others and you can get your "article" into SERPs and feeds without delay to jostle for clicks.
I'm fairly certain it's possible to discuss the possibility and likelihood of things in the medial context without there being a 'formal causality link'.

From a random sample of HN user's comments in the last year in some context or another this is a well established usage in a supermajority of them. So if you must insist on it, you likely will always be outvoted, at least with other HN users.
You can, of course, treat domains however you like, but it would be unfortunate to extend your approach worldwide. In many, many other countries the local domain is a strong signal of trust, often more so than a .com/.org.

Thinking through websites I use in Denmark, I struggle to recall one that isn't .dk.

Supermarkets (netto.dk, foetex.dk), public transport (dsb.dk, m.dk, cph.dk), newspapers/TV (politiken.dk, berlingske.dk, dr.dk), University (ku.dk, au.dk), local government (kk.dk), other retailers (computersalg.dk, proshop.dk, elgiganten.dk) ...

The largest grocery delivery company uses nemlig.com, and Ikea uses ikea.com.

As another example, if I'm applying online for a visa to Thailand, that site had better end .th.
In the UK, "a long shot" is something unlikely to succeed, and the artillery metaphor is understood, but I've never heard "by a long shot", where the "long shot" is the margin/distance by which the target is missed. Language eh?

I'm using Bootstrap in a Tailwind kind of way, with many utility classes. I don't use it's container system.

How do you get a basic Tailwind design running? It seems like you need a Bootstrap equivalent on it anyway.
>> Instead, Linux is being worked on by exporting the (git) patches and sharing them on a mailing list

Once configured, you can send a series of patches to the mailing list with a single git command, and with just another command apply a series of patches from the mailing list. It's actually quite efficient.
For image recognition it can sometimes be like that. My gut feeling is that lowering from fp32 to fp16 can get rid of some kind of overfitting or so.
I don't get Tailwind. In my book, CSS is here to facilitate the style of multiple webpages by modifying a set of rules, and classes are here to mutualise said rules.

With Tailwind, it looks like you design by writing HTML, which is the opposite of what CSS aims at. So if you wish to change your design, you'll have to update multiple templates instead of one CSS rule.

Every time I've had to work with Tailwind, it felt like a chore and it was an unpleasant experience.
Until we have an economy where people don't starve to death from lack of food or die of frostbite from being homeless, we have to figure out ways for people who actually make things to benefit from that work. Copyright is currently protecting people who rely on the product of their labor to make ends meet. Until we have the fairy tale economy you envision where artists can have the work stolen and still live, this is the best we've got.

And yeah, wild to think people feel entitled to own their own work thanks to silly things like the entire body of copyright law.
Normally mine last 2 - 3 days, with maybe a couple days of ramp up. These ones sound very real, exactly like the voice of a friend or relative etc. The thing that makes them especially feel real, the voices always have some 'spatial' element to them, like I'm overhearing a conversation from the other room. They also get quieter (or disappear entirely) if I walk away from the source.

The other form of voices I get, which are much more frequent + longer lasting, sound like my internal monologue. They can be different voices, but always sound like I'm 'thinking' them (rather than overhearing). These tend to last 2~ weeks after an episode, and come back when my anxiety or insomnia gets worse. Luckily these are pretty ignorable, if not a helpful sign that I'm nearing an episode. I'd compare them to anxious/intrusive thoughts (though a bit more intense).

I haven't had an episode in almost a year and have learnt to easily manage the intrusive thoughts (/possible start of an episode). This hasn't even impacted my lifestyle all that much, if anything it's taught me to manage my work/life balance.
What confuses me is there are more old people than there used to be. So in theory "older people stuff" should be thriving. But lots of hobbies / activities / associations are percieved as dying off as elderly members are not replaced. I wonder why.

Why? If you're already eating there, why should you pay to use the toilet? And if you're not eating there, then why are you there to use the toilet? Just use a public one. If there aren't sufficient public toilets, that sounds like a failure of the municipal government. Any good city should have lots of public toilets outside, in train stations, or in large shared buildings.
