I would not do this. For reasons of respect, you may need to address a person by either their first or last name (with a title).

Addressing a person by their full name can come across as rude (I personally find it rude too, e.g. "Hey John R. Brown, this is your order"), so it's useful to split up "given name" and "family name" into 2 fields so that you don't have to depend on name ordering which varies by culture.

If they only have one name, like many people in Myanmar, then it's just the given name. If they don't have family names (some cultures use patronymics) then it's just a long given name. If they have double-barreled last names like Hispanic names, then it's just a long family name.

Most people in the world have filled out forms on U.S. sites. They'll know what to do.
> And how capitalism will, well, capitalize on this environment, and have its own effect in turn.

I'm with you on both this and trust (with one caveat). I get the impression that you talk about trust in individuals and trust in institutions as the same thing. They aren't the same thing

I trust the people I deal with on a regular basis, but the institutions can all go to hell. I find it disheartening that you criticism capitalism, yet talk about "trust in institutions" like it's a good thing. The institutions are agents of capitalism. The politicians, newspapers, the C suite, all of them are defenders of capitalism

> and the attitudes that can become ingrained to prevent the situation from improving (why act in good faith if people will always assume ill intent?)

I have no idea why you talk about "trust in institutions" in one comment, and then try to associate it with trust in individuals. People don't need to "make peace" with institutions in order to trust each other. This attitude is conservative in nature
This is really nice in Europe, after the first year they must allow you to cancel monthly. So no more renews for another year crap.

I guess in America you don't get these nice things because you don't have your politicians voting for your interests but their corporate sponsors' instead. Time to vote for the people that support you :)

Also, cancellation must be offered through all the channels they offer signups on. So no more certified letter scams, if you can call them to sign up you can call them to cancel. And they can't push you around with a "customer loyalty" team. They can offer a deal but if you say no they must cancel.
Sounds like the low beams are mis-aimed if they are generating a much larger light pool and likely dazzling other drivers on the road at night.
Fun fact: some cultures only have one name, i.e. no first or last name.
Is it really worth using enum in postgres over a plain string, and optionally a check constraint if you're super concerned about strictness?
I'm going to disagree with you there. I took a lot of trips on Ryanair recently, and since they charge for overhead bin use, I kept everything under the seat in front of me. I was able to fit everything I needed (toiletries, clothes, laptop) for four days in a backpack under the seat in front of me.

I want to acknowledge that the load-times for Figma go up linearly with the complexity of your design file + its dependencies. It is always painful when users rightfully complain about giant design files taking a while to load and fully render.

The team is working on changing that so hopefully your experience gets better over time.

This is not my area of expertise, so I am not in the position to promise anything on this forum but I just want to say that the testing framework described in the article is also used to continuously test and measure the file load/parsing time as folks are working towards algorithmic improvements.
We should have a meeting to discuss having a meeting about it.
That's the funny thing about all the BRICS bluster, so many of the countries in (or soon to be in) the "group" either hate each other, are barely functioning or are just direct competitors in general. It's amazing anyone thinks they'll do anything that requires cooperation and mutual trust beyond making empty promises.
Actually a pretty sane and reasonable comment. Why is this not upvoted enough ?
What is a “good” Linux Kernel bug?
PaLM 2 is the underlying model for more than two dozen Google products, such as MedPaLM 2.

Each product fine-tunes their own weights on top of the underlying model, but it seems like that fine-tuning is more about style than substance.

For example, I listened to a 90-minute interview about the MedPaLM 2 product. It achieved an accuracy of 85% on the MedQA dataset (median score for human medical students is 67.4%) and 72.3% on the MedMCQA dataset (median score for human medical students is 58.4%).

But it didn't get its medical knowledge and reasoning capabilities from the fine-tuning, since the underlying PaLM 2 model already had that.

The fine-tuning was focused on interaction style, more professional and objective, avoiding informal language or expressing personal opinions.

MedPaLM 2 was also fine-tuned to answer questions in a comprehensive, deliberate and informative way. For example, if a doctor asks MedPaLM 2 about the causes of a medical condition, MedPaLM 2 provides a list of possible causes, as well as information about the symptoms, diagnosis, treatment alternatives and side effects. The fine-tuning also helped it to express its degree of certainty or uncertainty.

The underlying PaLM 2 already had the knowledge and reasoning capability to perform well on standardized medical tests, and the fine-tuning helped it to express it more effectively.

The government making a list of contraband information is fundamentally incompatible with a free society. The fact that it was used to censor the Christchurch video, or any other evil, matters not.

Also, individual laws and court cases can very much trample on due process and the rule of law. It doesn't matter how long standing they are.

Having parliaments and courts doesn't automatically result in a free society. It requires constant effort by the people to keep those institutions in check. When we fail to do that, then "the race to the bottom" ensues.
Cisco did not have any problems, it was Equality Labs which brainwashed an employee to file a lawsuite against his manager (who happened to be Christian). Not only the lawsuite has been dropped the last time I checked the victim (the manager accused of discrimination) is countersueing.

Equality Labs is behind these sort of plans and propaganda.
Google still kills for useful applications. I use marginalia when I have either A) something deeply obscure I want to research or B) when I just want to read some entertaining long-form text posts about something in a category that interests me.
Text expanders are good for this. You can have it as basic as "ty > thank you" up to templates which will ask for input, optional sections in templates, templates in templates, running scripts, and so on.

Very useful in eg. customer service when you want to reply to someone with links and whatnot. Giving instructions, etc.

For programming you can build up a library of common things, think ";;p -> print("\($place_cursor_here)"). Or whole classes, anything you can think of, really.

Or you could use a reasonable API like Mapbox and get better quality data for much, much cheaper.

Google Maps data quality has been tailing off. I encounter missing roads that are on the county parcel viewer and in OpenStreetMaps yet Google couldn't be bothered to ingest this public data. These roads aren't new, you can go back and look at county GIS exports from a decade ago and the road is there in the exact same place.

Theseus is an example of (2), in Rust, without bytecode. As far as I understand, done by enforcing no-unsafe etc rules in a blessed compiler, so basically source code becomes the equivalent of the byte code in your thinking. At a glance it's very similar to Midori, but the details of how it's done are quite different. In Theseus, drivers, applications etc are ELF objects, dynamically linked all together into one executable (which is also the kernel), with some neat tricks like hot upgrades.

Indian government offers different benefits to different castes. For example say you murder someone. The victim's caste will play a big role in how you are treated. If you kill a person belonging to so called "lower caste", your punishment would higher and bar for evidence much lower.

If you belong to certain castes then you get government jobs and promotions on priority bases. Upto 50% of jobs are reserved based on caste. Around 70% of admissions in colleges are done by looking at your caste.

GOVERNMENT insists on knowing your caste.

I was pretty fortunate. My Dad was a veterinarian who taught himself to program (in Pascal) he knew a lot about a certain era of computing - early 90's MS-DOS 386 era PC's. His tech skills kind of atrophied and stagnated he never really adopted to the Win 9x gui first era of computing but he still had his ear to the ground enough to tip me off about google.
Materials for making decent explosives are usually controlled. If you're talking homemade explosives, you probably aren't getting that on a quadrotor, or if you are, you're seriously compromising its performance. Bullets are controlled through licensing in most first world countries.

If you wanted to control components going into homebuilt drones, you would probably target the guidance, since even basic waypoint navigation requires something to tell you where you are in relation to the target. To an extent this is already done with GPS (the true precision was classified last I checked, civilian uses are downgraded), but controlling manufacture and distribution of the stack would shut any kind of home robotics down while leaving a lot of channels untouched. If people wanted PCBs, fine, they just wouldn't be able to get certain sensors on them without a license.

You don't need global DRM to control exports. It's routine for some industries.

Of course, much of this is besides the point, because if someone really wants to hurt other people, they'll find a way. But the components to build a cruise missile in your backyard not only exist, they're mostly available COTS, but the critical parts like the payload are controlled. In some hypothetical future where AI drones became a threat, you can bet that the critical paths would be identified fairly quickly and locked down.
Interesting perspective. I have a decent wpm (like 120 if we are doing mavis beacon shit) but otherwise I usually go at like 70.

Then again, it's not always a small force. America has voted for a party that has promised again and again to do everything they can to outlaw abortion as broadly as possible.

It's with great regret that I find it seem like civilization has to armor up, has to really defend it's tolerance & getting along against what feels like rabid anti-tolerant extremism. The fringe has just made itself so vocal, so petulant, and the question of how the world copes with these strident folks looms: it seems so confounding, so difficult. We dont have the spare capacity to be dealing with the worst, letting them suck up our energy & roadblock the governance & progress this world needs to be making some headway on.

What definition are you using of ally? Normally countries are considered allies when they have formal agreements (treaties) between each other to cooperate for mutual benefit. By this measure, the US and Mexico are definitely allies.

Mexico is the USA's second largest trading partner worldwide. Exports of goods and services to Mexico support an estimated 1.1 million jobs (Department of Commerce). Mexico is also the second largest source of foreign crude oil to the USA, and the top export destination for US petroleum & natural gas. The US-Mexico-Canada agreement (USMCA) entered force in 2020, replacing NAFTA. The countries have a variety of complex ties. There are other treaties and areas of cooperation too, such as the International Boundary and Water Commission (IBWC). A security cooperation agreement called the Bicentennial Framework for Security, Public Health, and Safe Communities went into effect in 2021.

As for Vietnam, the US and Vietnam established a bilateral trade agreement in 2001. The US provides maritime security assistance to the country through the Maritime Security Initiative, Cooperative Threat Reduction Program, and through foreign military financing. US transferred Coast Guard cutters to Vietnam in 2017 and 2020 to bolster its law enforcement capabilities.

Those sound like alliances to me, but I'm interested to hear what other definition you're using.

ODM is a way to preprocess data before sending it to OAM, but it does not itself provide a sharing platform.

One barrier for OAM seems to be that it requires the image to be already orthorectified. To be more like Mapillary you'd need a service that takes georefed pictures and does its own processing.

In the case of airplane window photos where georef is not going to be good enough, you might need existing photos to correlate with -- ADS-B track combined with time can help provide a starting guess, but not much else.
Thanks for the advice - I do 1 & 3 and I think I do 2 & 4 although that's less true when writing things with symbols (such as code), or when navigating text (I don't use vim). According to monkeytype.com, my typing speed is ~40wpm, which is apparently around average (not average for monkeytype users).

Thinking time definitely dominates, I'm hesitant to write something unless I'm confident in it, which I feel serves me well when writing code, but less well in other contexts (except perhaps HN, which has an unusually high fondness for accurate rebuttals of minor technical points). I spent ~20 minutes writing each of my 3 replies to you (longer on this one now that I've finished it). Perhaps being able to type at the speed I could talk would deny me the chance to think about it while waiting to finish typing, speeding me up indirectly.
Google is still the king of points-of-interests and local businesses. Places that a tourist would actually care about. Mapbox would not even be within 1 or 2 order of magnitudes when it comes to this data.
Just a note about the power ratings here:

900W is how much my kettle is rated for, which means it actually draws 900W of power (which is about 9A at 100V).

For the microwave, 900W is the power transmitted to the food, not the power drawn from the outlet. All microwaves are rated this way. But microwaves are not particularly efficient; just guessing, I'd guess that a typical 1200W American microwave draws around 1500-1600W, and certainly no more than 1800W since that's the max the outlet can provide. So my microwave at the 900W setting probably draws a bare minimum of 1100W (11A at 100V).

And that's a fancy microwave; the typical microwaves here are all 500/600W. I think the most powerful one I've ever seen in a store was 1000W, so that's probably the highest power rating that can safely run on typical kitchen circuits here in reasonably modern buildings.
If it can't truly be a dumb device, maybe you shouldn't be telling people its a "dumb" device.

In a noncommercial context, "search" and "advertising" are mutually exclusive.

An internet where all ordering of information is done via secret algorithms that are constantly being tweaked behind the scenes, optimised to prioritise popularity and other metrics useful to advertising.

Online advertising services companies formed from high traffic websites calling themselves "tech" companies.

In 1997, the founders announced Google in a paper where they vowed to offer a search engine that could be studied in the "academic realm".

http://infolab.stanford.edu/pub/papers/google.pdf

But we soon learned Google lacks integrity. Say one thing, do another. Fast forward. Outside of Google, who actually studies the Google search engine. People without any university education, or at least no need for it, calling themselves "SEO consultants".

When Google publishes academic papers about their internal operations is this done to push search engine technology into the academic realm. No. It's purely commercial, a recruiting tactic; Google is "showing off".[1]

1. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37313826

High traffic websites incorporated as so-called "tech" companies have sought to bury noncommercial websites beneath all the advertising-driven garbage and/or to discourage web exploration and development outside their walled gardens.

However, it's still possible to use the internet for noncommercial purposes. High web traffic or market cap does not give any single website the authority to define how the internet can be used.

Arguably it's easier to use the internet today than it ever has been.

The web is not the internet. And the internet is not a handful of gigantic websites calling themselves "tech" companies. In practice, the internet is reliant on non-binding cooperation. As such, no one can own the internet, and no one can control it.

One can try. And that's what large so-called "tech" companies have done. It may have worked in the past and it may continue to work, for now.

But things can change, they will change, and Google could become just like AltaVista.

Contrary to most stories people tell about the mid 90's, I actually liked AltaVista better than Google. When someone first showed me Google I was not interested and I did not switch immediately. I liked comprehensive searching, combing through large numbers of results. Google seemed antithetical to that, focusing only on the "top" results.

One difference between then and today is that no one back then was patiently and desperately waiting for something better to come along, publishing articles such as "The End of the AltaVistaverse". There are people today who really want to get past Google and on to something better. They have been waiting for years. Progress has really stallled.
