Pyrrho's Pig – Futility Closet
I see this, NEOM/Palm Islands, Eko Atlantic, Sidewalk Toronto and compare it to large urban projects from decades ago, like Brasília... is it even possible to design a city from the grounds up? To just straight up select some plot of land and build infrastructure and create a community that otherwise needed hundreds of years of organic development with existing cities?
"You can’t patent a concept or an idea" also doesn't prevent patent offices from granting patents on concepts and ideas.

IMO, if we are to have patents at all, the patent offices should be robust, well-funded systems which make sure that no patent that's not genuinely a novel implementation of an idea gets granted. In reality, it seems like patent offices more or less accept anything that's written in dense enough lawyerese, and it's up to the legal system to slowly invalidate the bad patents after they've done a ton of harm.

The fault here doesn't lie with the companies, but with the whole patent system where governments are way too quick to give out a state-backed monopoly of an idea. I find the whole practice despicable.

Here's the What3Words patent: https://patents.google.com/patent/CA2909524A1/en

The first claim of the patent is:

> 1. A computer implemented method of producing a location identifier comprising:
> receiving at a processor geographical coordinates of a location;
> at said processor performing the steps of:
> converting the geographical coordinates into a single unique value n;
> converting the single unique value n into a unique group of a plurality of
> values; and converting the plurality of values into an equal plurality of
> respective words; and making the plurality of words available as a location
> identifier.

It's hard to imagine anything remotely based around the idea to "convert a location to a set of words" which doesn't infringe on that claim.
If shared laundry were a significant vector of transmissible diseases, it would be pretty damn obvious.

Can fungus grow in your washer? Sure. My washing machine growing up as a kid was gross and my clothes constantly stunk because of my family's inability to take wet laundry out of the washer. Then I went away to college, the machines were maintained, I'm not a moron and can handle getting clothes out of the washer when they're done, and my clothes no longer stunk.

Wash your clothes with detergent (no, you don't even need hot water), dry them promptly, and you will be fine. Use a hot air dryer instead of line drying if you're really worried.

You're making a logical connection betweeen x depending on y and x being (bigger/more important/more significant) than y.

That implies that nothing can be more important than all of the things that were neccesary for it to come to pass. And there are a huge number of neccesary preconditions for most things. Your definition would result in a very counterintuitive definition of importance.

> despite implementing various welfare programs similar to Scandinavian ones.

There are many countries with welfare regimes similar in size to those of Scandinavia. They are qualitatively quite different. A rough categorization:

- Liberal regimes (means tested but with relatively equal benefits between participants, market oriented) are typical of the Anglosphere. Food stamps in the United States are an archetypical liberal program.

- Corporatist (aka conservative, Christian-democratic) regimes (many recipients with highly unequal benefits, often tied to family status or employment) are typical of continental Europe, especially. Unemployment insurance is an archetypical corporatist program.

- Social-democratic regimes (extensive universal benefits, direct provision of public services, full employment as an explicit policy goal) are typical of Scandinavia. The Finnish national pension system is an archetypical social-democratic program.

Of course no currently existing states are purely one of these ideal types, but they do cluster. Social-democratic welfare states (Sweden, Norway, Finland, Denmark, and to some extent the Netherlands) significantly outperform conservative ones with comparable or higher levels of public spending (e.g. France, Austria, Germany).

Yes? Title has no mention about specific regions. Abstract mentions specific regions. Even your comment is clickbait: you only include the title and a sentence that does not mention specific regions, despite you being aware of it, since you presumably read the abstract.

The problem is that there is twice as much atmosphere between you and space at sea level than if you in Denver, Colorado. That can mean more distortion as the light passes through more dust and more thermally different layers before it reaches you.

Capitalism is objectively a failure too (in certain countries, e.g. the US). And arguably that is also due to human nature.
In Europe there are thriving social democracies in some states. No one is being held at gunpoint because that is one extreme. These are still capitalist nations, just not across the board.
I think of unit tests and the debugger going together like peanut butter and jelly. That is, a language like Java lacks the interactive REPl of, say, Python but you can get similar interactivity writing tests in an IDE like IntelliJ Idea and breakpointing, and when you are done you wrote some tests.

Austria in general is very unfriendly to small businesses. The salaries are also heavily taxed so employees are extra expensive.

All of the hiring attempts are just companies trying to pay you as little as possible and then contract your work to rich companies or government. But to me it sounds most Europe is like this.

They do offer a 12% discount if you do not have any expenses (which you can barely have as a programmer) so eventually you can earn a bit more than being employed.
I am always a bit conflicted when I see posts like theses. On one hand I also like free stuff, but on the other hand I also know running services like these costs money (and I'm not only talking about digital/IT resources).

Dub music isn't "the chanting of Rastafari", it is a musical genre orthogonal to Rastafarianism that was developed by Jamaican musicians from varied backgrounds. Rastafarianism does have a chanting tradition in worship and e.g. Nyabinghi chants have been recorded over the decades, but it sounds little like dub music, which is, after all a studio-based genre, and it also sounds more West African-diaspora than Jewish liturgical music.
Thank you for mentioning it, I fixed the link!

For me, once I realize that an article has specifically intended to deceive me (whether by exaggeration or misdirection), I don’t spend time further evaluating or even consuming what they were trying to say.

You could have a solid argument underlying your exaggeration and I just don’t care. Once you’ve intentionally deceived, I stop paying attention to you. You don’t lose just the detected deceitful part of your argument; you lose it all.

In that regard, whether or not the HN commenter knows anything about the underlying issue doesn’t matter. If they correctly clue me in to the deception, I don’t read the article.
This is the right takeaway honestly. I was hoping a comment like this would be the top comment, but unfortunately hackernews loves this kind of bait

Pretty much everyone, because Twitter doesn't provide a way to tell a tweet written by a user from a tweet written by someone that controls/works at Twitter.
Nah; apps can share data. If you log in to a dedicated video browsing account in the YouTube app, Google Maps and Google Docs can now associate your YouTubing account with your work and personal accounts. The ad company can now connect your personal email correspondence, your browsing, your work documents, your work travel, your personal travel, and the videos you watch. Share link trackers give them parts of your social graph even if you don't share contacts permission, but they build that up ad hoc from your email contents anyway.

The sandboxing inside of apps is mostly an illusion.
> You need to be very clear about who is the competition here worldwide

Since Singapore likes to set extremely high standards for itself, its competition is places like Amsterdam, Copenhagen, Cambridge, etc.

Admittedly the parent commenter mentioned 'infrastructure', which Singapore has a bit of, but there's more to cycling than just pathways laid across the ground and painted with bicycle motifs. For Singapore to be truly a 'good place for cycling', it's got to have the right mindset for cycling. This means giving less priority to motor vehicles.

Singapore ought to narrow its roads. There are too many non-highway stroads, and there is no reason for a semi-residential road to be 3+ lanes wide in each direction—look at any number of the Avenues in Toa Payoh, Ang Mo Kio, Bishan, Serangoon, Queenstown, Bukit Batok, Bedok, etc etc. Cars can easily reach 70+ km/h on these roads, which also makes it very unsafe for cyclists and pedestrians. The extra space from getting rid of these lanes could instead be used for much wider footpaths and grade-separated cycle lanes.

Pedestrianise the city centre and residential cores. This is related to the point above, but some roads (e.g. in the CBD) could be completely blocked from vehicle access altogether. Consider using trams in the CBD instead of buses and trains.

Improve bike-parking infrastructure. There are a handful of bike-parking spaces around MRT stations, but very few in other common areas like parks, HDB void decks, hawker centres, etc. Again, refer to the cities above for examples of how dense bike parking could possibly be.

Bring back park-and-rides. Singapore used to have them, but ditched them in favour of directly linking the heartlands into the city, which have made MRTs packed.

Incentivise bicycle ownerships: vouchers for bike shops, cycle-buying schemes, and of course, a bicycle licensing scheme similar to e-scooters and e-bikes (and cars).

There's a lot more, but these are the lowest hanging fruits.
It just annoys me that people don’t understand the philosophy they expose.

Marx was not the origin of Communism or the phrasing around means of production. The context for his writing wasn’t simply factory conditions being so bad he created an original ideology from whole cloth. Which is why he was credited with the Marxism not Communism.
So that’s trust based on the DNS and web PKI systems, not the Nostr protocol.
I have sometimes wondered if what we seem to remember of dreams is just a rationalization our conscious mind makes of the state it finds our brain in when we awake.

If, however, scanning shows a good deal of similarity between the states a subject’s brain goes through while asleep and when recalling a dream afterwards, the most parsimonious explanation would seem to be that memories of dreams do represent what was going through one’s mind while asleep.

To be fair, there are very few dedicated cycle lanes in the sense other countries have them. The CPN is basically just a line on a wide PCN path that pedestrians mostly ignore. It, along with with the PCN, is genuinely really fantastic for getting around by bike for the average person. However if you are a cyclist who takes their sport seriously, or somebody who commutes a decent distance by bike, you will be fairly limited because there’s usually plenty of pedestrians and a speed limit of 25km/h. And honestly, I don’t really fancy cycling on the roads in Singapore because the drivers aren’t used to dealing with cyclists. So I understand why somebody might say there’s little infrastructure for cyclists. Personally I cycle a fair amount and think Singapore is great for it, but I don’t go particularly fast and I do frequently have to slow down and weave my way past pedestrians anyway.
Title of submission ("33% of gamers are disabled") is fraudulent.

Not the title of the article, not a claim made in the article, not a factually supported statement about distribution of disabilities among gamers.
If they really want to create sustainable city, they need to count in density.
If 16% of the general population is disabled, it stands to reason that 33% of gamers could be?
> The only thing your comment spoke to is the homogeneity of accents and language. There’s a lot more to culture than just that.

There's Walmart. There's the universal decay of the small town.

There's the stark difference between rural and (sub-)urban populations that's exactly the same across the country, south to north, west to east.

Other than sports there is no more local culture. And the biggest teams are part of national organizations.

There is the vast gap between the haves and have nots wherever you go.

We're a consumer society, so consider how marketing defines us. That's US culture.
This looks pretty nice. Would you be interested in reviving this to target type-safe ts ?

Attention needs to be distracted, maybe.
The same could be said for climate scientists and geologists couldn't it?
Isn’t predicting what we want out of a science, more so than explaining?
> Not a single human survived in parts of NYC is technically true.

It is technically true. But, if we're analysing excess mortality to observe extraordinary circumstances, we shouldn't let that truism disregard the observation that not a single human survived in the top 10 floors of a given skyscraperbof NYC on a particular Tuesday.
I'm betting they will all be replaced by AI in the coming years.

One reason is that we can now better simulate the rational actors in a market.
Pretty much this IMHO. Memory consolidation and defragmentation. Do I need to store these two memories as separate memories? Do I need to keep them at all?

With these types of questions, I could explain many of my dreams, especially the more superficially strange ones.
I think this all convinces me that neither of the things we're discussing here is "neat". Certainly contemporary LLMs don't seem to fit that definition at all, despite being "mathematical".
True, but no pure coordinate encoding system is going to help there. You need the user to be able to read a map of some sort to:

1. first verify that the position reading is accurate at all

2. adjust the reading appropriately

3. note any further navigation issues that could be important to people trying to head towards them (even with a 100% accurate position that could be a problem).

The selling point of W3W is neither accuracy nor precision, but the claim that it reduces transcription errors that might send rescuers off in the wrong direction – for instance the difference between OSMAP references 680287 and 680278 putting you on the wrong side of the river with a few mile trip in either direction to get to the other side due to where crossing points are (there are no doubt better examples than this, I arbitrarily picked an example close by where I often run). This claim is disputed by a number of people some of whom make a good case (for instance https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-56901363) and the fact that W3W has often chosen to respond to criticism with legal slaps instead of technical explanations suggests to me that the criticism is right.

> By that argument you might as well add VAT paid by your employers customer as well.

If you make money by your labor hours directly being billed and the buyer of those hours pays VAT on that labor, then I agree.

So long as there’s a direct and 100% link between your labor and the taxed amount, it’s value you created and was taxed away, without regard to who stroked the check to the tax authorities.
