I offered an alternative to their complaint. But sure, instead of "dismissing" them, I could leave them to complain and whine. Or follow you down ever dwindling definitions of "thin" and "light" until you prove yourself correct about some made up argument in your head.

Either way, I'm done with your Trump-style snippet-based retort tactics. Go buy a Steam Deck clone, since that's your's and the OP's only choice, apparently.
This is simply a false dichotomy and that you don't realize such is damning
The real root problem is that we refuse to pay to treat any of the actual root causes of any of this, whether that is on the street or in a jail cell.

The health system has a shortage of mental health and drug treatment spaces and practitioners, and what exists often isn't affordable to those who need it. At the same time, we don't pay for those things in prison either, and it's also expensive to have a bunch of disruptive, unhinged prisoners constantly needing to be contained after damaging stuff when they have an episode or whatever.

Bail and sentencing reform was often kicked off by conservatives initially, because a low-tax state cannot afford the very expensive cost of locking up every single drug user. California has been sued multiple times over the fact that its prison system is chronically overcrowded, and lost at the Supreme Court level: https://lao.ca.gov/reports/2011/crim/overcrowding_080511.asp.... But there is no appetite to pay more to open new prisons, which are nearly impossible to site even if there was funding (do you want to live next to a prison?)

There is a wide spectrum between completely illegal and absolute free access and while I would Position most drugs on the liberal side of the spectrum, there are good reasons to manage access in some ways, I.e. age limits, legal settings for consumption, etc. and of course I think a low cost/free and universal health system is a prerequisite to manage the fallout of drug consumption, no matter of legal or illegal.
Princess Mononoke just has a slow gradual buildup. It builds the world and plays with plot tension and progression in interesting ways. Then saves the climax for the end of the film, with an after scene that gives a sense of finality.

It's easily one of my favourite films for these reasons.
I don’t fully understand the fascination with retrieval augmented generation. The retrieval part is already really good and computationally inexpensive — why not just pass the semantic search results to the user in a pleasant interface and allow them to synthesize their own response? Reading a generated paragraph that obscures the full sourcing seems like a practice that’s been popularized to justify using the shiny new tech, but is the generated part what users actually want? (Not to mention there is no bulletproof way to prevent hallucinations, lies, and prompt injection even with retrieval context.)

I'm another fellow admirer of Interaction nets. I'd like to inquire on the positioning of iNet, whether you intend for it to be a performant/beta-optimal runtime like HVM, or if you're interested in other theoretical developments?

In case you wanted to steer it in the direction of a beta-optimal runtime like HVM, do note the pathological cases (e.g. the last page of https://sci-hub.hkvisa.net/10.1006/inco.1997.2643) and the other pitfalls which HVM suffers from (; of a fundamental nature of the framework of Interaction nets, I'm afraid, demanding breakthroughs in theory to be overcome https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35336113#35340714).

Despite these issues, I am quite strongly convinced that Girard's framework of Geometry of Interaction is the best way forward towards a computational model with local and denotational properties for large scale software.

Strong agreement with everything you've said here. I can't say enough good things about trunk-based development. I started managing a team with 15+ developers. They had used long-lived branches, with a develop, a staging, and a release branch. Not using TBD, "releases" were a huge ceremony and extremely inertial. Velocity went way, way up when we adopted TBD. It took some time for people to become comfortable with the new approach, not because it's complex, but precisely because they had grown so used to unnecessary complexity and had to unlearn many things.

Ok but as an urban planner it's a whole lot easier to tell your boss "hey we're removing 5 parking, spaces we'll lose x dollars per year in parking fees" than it is to say "hey we're removing 5 parking spaces and we need to come up with $5 million to pay the parking company"
> Even with all of the online resources now, nothing beats learning from playing over the board, so it’s been heart-warming to see the gradual yet real strides chess in Japan is making so people can ... find more chess clubs near them and nurture their love for the game.

I live in Yokohama. I wasn’t aware of any chess clubs near me, but a web search turns up one in Yokohama [1] and one in neighboring Kawasaki [2]; there are more than twenty others nationwide [3].

This contrasts, though, with the much larger number of go clubs. There seem to be over thirty in Yokohama alone, including at least three within walking distance of my home. Some go clubs are small, like one on the fourth floor of a building a few blocks away [4], while others are quite large [5].

I learned how to play go in the U.S. in the late 1970s. For a few years after I moved to Japan in 1983, I sometimes played in go clubs around Tokyo. They were an interesting scene: smoke-filled rooms full of middle-aged and older men, many of whom seemed to spend all day every day there, playing game after game. There wasn’t much talking or socializing; often two people would play an entire game without exchanging more than a word or two.

The first go club I ventured into, before I could speak much Japanese, was in Kabukicho on the edge of the redlight district. It was livelier than the ones I went to later, perhaps because, unlike most other go clubs, it served alcohol and was open all night. It seems to have moved to a new location deeper into Kabukicho, surrounded by bars and love hotels [6].

I never got very strong at go—maybe 4 or 5 kyu—and I haven’t played a regular game in many years. But recently, at my daughter’s request, I have started teaching my grandson how to play. It will be interesting to see if he likes it. If he does, I might show him chess, too.

Some have.
Actually it was a poor qa/test relationship that destroyed git flow for me. Because the presence of release branches made the PO confident they could release any fixes or "emergency features" they wanted, they kept the QA team on the release branches while the dev team kept cranking through the backlog until it came time to validate like a year's worth of work and QA+PO threw up their hands and said it was too much to validate.

So now I don't merge a feature unless I know it's allowed to be released. If it's not releasable, it's not merging.

A core of Democracy is indeed preventing ballot stuffing when people go to upload the vote results they see. We're just not talking about electronic means than paper ones. You say "me", why is your script different from a Russian-style nation state trying to put weight on the scales? Or trying to DDOS the site? And if you are indeed different, to make the distinction in any way, some form of meta information must be monitored and acted upon. You may be innocent, I can not know that in the technological future you propose. Without information, as per security best practices, the wire defaults to closed, not open. The cost is the loss of ease of use and access, but the data integrity is more important than your scripting convenience. The data can at least represent the historical record. Without that historical record, scripting of false data is worse than useless and actively dangerous and not worth putting into the world.

While I agree with you that shenanigans are virtually guaranteed, I don't think your two methods will work. They certainly could try to limit it to Europe, but they won't be able to limit it only to European soil. Travelers who find their sideloaded apps disabled or deleted will complain, and they'll be subject to fines again. The other one would be problematic too... sabotaging the phone when it's legally compliant will see an even swifter crackdown.

Crazy that people have their browser in fullscreen if 90% of the pages use a max viewport of 1280...
Huh. Now I'm not sure Javascript should be able to do any of those things either. Now that you mentioned it, I remember reading about how sites fingerprint users by timing keystrokes and mouse movements and numberless other things.

Maybe the ultimate conclusion is Javascript should not actually exist at all. The web should be declarative, not executable. Developers tell the browser what they want and the browser does it. If it can't be done that way, it isn't done.

Just like Chrome's Manifest V3 making extensions more declarative and limited. My only problem with it is the fact it cripples uBlock Origin. I actually do want those restrictions applied to 100% of all the other extensions, it's just that uBlock Origin is too important and trusted and should be an exception. Honestly, uBlock Origin should be literally built into the browsers at this point. The only reason we can't have that is the massive conflicts of interest involved: can't trust an advertising company to maintain an adblocker.
I would argue that it's about bringing out the rediculous of normal social things and then amplify that on the punchline. You take a social thing, deconstruct it, and then reconstruct it in such a way that the result is hilarious. The building process itself should get laughs, and then the biggest laugh on completing the picture (punchline.) A skilled performer can keep you smiling just in anticipation (as you might be smiling as your friend is telling you a joke, knowing the punchline is coming.) Norm might be one of the greatest joke tellers I have ever observed.

As to the writing, I feel that you should be a great thinker to be a great joke creator. Maybe not all comics need to actually write jokes. But writing in general is a creative process, which is also thinking. And writing jokes gives you material for remixing. I agree it's mostly performance though. Some comics are all performance and little to no dialogue.

For the moment, but only until other wankers reverse engineer the security flaws based on the updated 16.6.1 firmware from Apple. After that you too are vulnerable if you haven't updated.
Precisely my thoughts. The fact that this exists is so cool, but it's clear some more tuning would have to be done for "proper" balance.

'Subterranean Crush' is exactly 'Flesh to Dust' but two mana cheaper and 'Silent Splendor' is 'Dramatic Reversal' cranked to 11. An instant include in any blue deck, I need it.

This is a win for openness (good!), but I am worried about the downsides. I worry many less tech-savvy users will end up with a lot of garbage (spyware, scuzzware, whatever) on their phones.

Not that this problem doesn't exist via Apple's own store, but I worry it will be worse. Time will tell.

I think it's relevant to point out that even Amsterdam eventually chose to ban magic mushrooms, though less potent magic truffles remain legal. This happened after a rapidly increasing number of incidents of people having psychotic episodes while tripping and injuring or killing themselves, usually while trying to fly.

I don't really see how legalization could work, let alone in an area with extremely high numbers of people with mental illness. Shrooms + mental illness go together like ammonia and bleach. And how many 'flying deaths', particularly of otherwise healthy young people, will society accept before backtracking? One can already easily envision the commercials for the inevitable proposition over it.

Those are all fair arguments you can make, but none of them make a case that the current subsidy level is necessary.

For a system that is actually in use, the consequences of these attacks you imagine are difficult to reason about. It's not like the system stops existing if some attacker attacks-- the attacker can reverse some of their own transactions near the chain tip. Recipients can adapt to the behavior by requiring more confirmations, restricting who and how they attack, etc.

It's difficult to generalize from what's seen in those "random shitcoins" (to use your phrase) since most of them have little to no economic use, so an attack may have an oversized or undersized impact depending on pure chaos: their value is purely speculative so the narrative around the attack determines the outcome more than anything. Since you've said you tracked these things presumably you're aware that in many cases their value goes up after they're attacked.

> but only because most of the SHA256 miners are already mining bitcoin

That's also not clear to me, there are an awful lot of idle two generation old miners out there at any given time.

> And what if Bitcoin becomes actually successful? Becomes the backbone of the world economy and doing trillions per day in transactions?

The total value of activity on the chain isn't equivalent to the value available to attackers in an attack, especially to the extent that attacking undermines the value of the system as a whole.

In any case, I wasn't (and am not now) trying to take a strong position here-- I would say that there are a lot of unknowns but that I think the position you were taking that the current fee level isn't adequate doesn't really pass a sniff test for me. Perhaps it isn't but if you really strongly believe that there are about 1000 cryptocurrencies that you should be figuring out how to short hard instead of posting on HN. :P
Natural gas and coal make up over half of Texas power generation. We're better off ramping them down during low demand rather than keeping them running at max capacity for bitcoin mining of all things. What an environmental nightmare. Your example only works if most of the power comes from green energy sources.
An enterprise that "strains the grid" still has to pay for that electricity, so it's not some perverse incentive at all.

Sounds like one of:

(A) Ransomware or DDoS.

(B) Unexpected single point of failure (like a critical piece of hardware) and they need to rush-order a replacement.

(C) They can't identify the cause. (Doubtful.)

or

(D) Cascading failure. When they fix one thing, something else takes them down. Like a large queue of pending jobs that floods and crashes them when they come back up.

This is for a different reason (all useful e-mail clients do the same thing!). If Mail (or thunderbird or whatever) loaded the media, then the sender could know you opened the e-mail (by sending each recipient a unique image), leaking information.
Brio tracks are nicely designed in that altho you can combine them in myriad ways (with switches etc.), in general one of the shorter lengths of straight track does properly satisfy any gap you get.

That is to say, in the overall system, only a _small_ integer number of different straight track lengths are required.

In comparison, TrackMaster requires many more.

Unesco seeks regulation of generative AI use in education
Ask HN: Experiences with a CTO of a Series A startup who is checked out?
Hi, looking for professional opinions on what, if anything, to do about this situation…

I’ve been a “fullstack” web app software engineer for about 11 years. I currently work for a remote startup out of an East Coast city. The company develops an enterprise SaaS app meant to help companies with certain regulatory tasks. There are 14 engineers and 70 total employees.

Things aren’t great for the company. We have little to no revenue even after an unexpectedly large Series A. Our particular market is tough, and sure enough we have no growth and just 3 “big” customers. There are lots of problems with the company, but I have a specific focus for this post: I recently realized that the CTO hasn’t made technical comments on any document, anywhere, in over a year. In general we have no technical leadership. (There are no other leaders in the tech org except a single people manager between the CTO and us engineers.) No PRs except one liners. They take few meetings, not even 1:1s, and while they nominally head the small product division too (3 PMs under them), I see almost no deliverables, like documents. This is odd, because this person CAN code. They are really talented. I’ve seen it — before. And they have a lot of knowledge about this industry. So… something’s up. It seems to me that this person doesn’t care.

The thing is, our company has enough money to zombie along for 4 more years. I work 40 hour weeks and make 165k, with a lot of flexibility. With a 2 year old at home, life is good, especially in this tech economy. I feel very lucky, but I guess I’m worried still because it feels like the ship is sailing without a captain, just a couple of lookouts.

Does this resonate with anyone? I’m not complaining so much as looking for … perspective? Could there be invisible strategy work I am missing, especially because the company is remote and visibility into coworker tasks is hard? Is there anything I could do? Should do? And obviously I’m going to get a new job if I’m laid off, and when the company fails. But they already laid off 15 engineers (I know, we were bloated) and those cuts were deep, so I feel safe “for now”. And rather than hunt for a job, I’m inclined to ride this out while my kid is still young.

This is a bit of a ramble, but does anyone have thoughts? Similar experiences of a disinterested founder?

Unfortunately that opens up a whole new can of worms. There are already sites that guess how fake amazon reviews are, maybe we need something similar for github.

I hope an analysis like you proposed could yield some insights to patterns or maybe even enough data to do some machine learning on.
I'm fairly certain that "text to email" is a feature of MMS - I've used it a few times years before iPhones were around.

I don't remember if MMS is enabled by default in iOS but theres a toggle to disable it, and realistically there's very minimal real world use-case for MMS these days.
The article suggests *GitHub Flow* not Git-Flow. Which from reading does just seem like trunk based development.
