Exactly. The Parent comment strikes me as being very naïve.

Right to Unsubscribe? Gmail and other email providers do this for you even if you are not a CA resident and even if the Marketer does not have a built-in Unsubscribe link. From a Marketer perspective, you cost money to send emails to, and if you are not going to open, they kind of don't want you on the list anyway.

CCPA == GDPR? Not even close. Majority of CA businesses do not reach the compliance threshold and therefore do not have to or will not comply with requests. Additionally, you have no way to validate if the request was actually carried out. The company's "best efforts" to remove data from their systems is all that's required at best - and a lot of data can be retained for valid business reasons.

Lastly - despite what CA residents believe (and similar to EU residents with GDPR) - CA laws do not apply to the rest of the country simply because they are unenforceable except in the most egregious cases - and even then it would have to be a very large business anyway.

> because it's easier than building a California-specific version of a website or online product

Nobody is doing this in practice. At best, they use some GeoIP thing or if you are logged into an account (which means they have your data anyway). The law does not require them to validate the user anyway, so it's all "best effort" again which usually means low effort.

But hey, if it makes you feel warm and fuzzy believing these things - more power to you.
I haven't used this specific brand, but puncture "proof" tires aren't exactly that. Don't get me wrong, they are a huge improvement over previous generations of tire tech, but they still get flats if you ride a lot. Unless this has changed drastically in the last 2-3 years, which is certainly possible.
FAANGs are not doubling down on the Bay Area. Several of them are making significant expansions in Austin, North Carolina, Virginia, Colorado, etc. I was told specifically by an Apple recruiter a couple years ago that they were told to concentrate recruiting outside of Cupertino.

Hmmm society vs. a money making organization to me are two different things.... politicians those who make the laws arent going around doing school shootings and other murderous acts. They do steal, lie, cheat and other bad things and they are brought to justice. So with that in mind Google itself is the politician in this example and or a group of them doing terrible things yet no one cares/nothing is done about their nefarious behavior ... probably because Google has bought the politicians ;-)
I can almost assure you it was an explicit requirement in an RFP that was copied from some master template. So not a good justification - but a justification in the eyes of the bureaucracy.

The book Recoding America has a lot of anecdotes to this effect; most of these situations reduce to a Congressional mandate that got misinterpreted along the way. My favorite was for an update to Social Security. The department in charge of the implementation swore that Congress was forcing them to build a facebook for doctors (literally where doctors could friend other doctors and message them). Congress had no such intention; it was actually 3rd party lobbying that wanted the requirement so they could build their own solution outside of government. Really crazy stuff.
It's time to stop spreading this false narrative. It's genuinely baffling how many people will disregard hard evidence and statistics simply because it doesn't fit their world view.

Interesting article but I was expecting a breakdown of how much of the capacity was monocrystalline, and that's not even mentioned. It does emphasize the importance of overhauling grid infrastructure to manage high solar inputs however:

> I just like to understand the perspective of people I disagree with.

The war on drugs isn't an abstract topic, and the architects of who promoted and effected it did so out of openly racist and malicious motives which they were recorded as saying. If you actually tried to understand them by listening to them, you'd find that they really were malicious. To truly understand their perspective you'd need to acknowledge when they held malicious and racist perspectives, otherwise you're actually actively working to not understand.

Language translation can be tricky because of the underlying nuances in each language so more context would probably be better, but using multiple steps to evaluate its performance on a key level would be a good way to improve the confidence.

It might be beneficial to start your dataset at the key (word) level, generate some embeddings of the key pair in the source and target and stash them, then do the same for sentence level and just for fun, paragraph level. (I believe you could get enough context from the sentence level as a paragraph is just a group of sentences but it would still be interesting to generate paragraph level key pairs I think).

From there you’d have a set of embeddings of each word src:tgt that also has context of how it fits in a sentence level and paragraph level with the respective nuances of each language.

Once you have that dataset then you can augment your data with prompts like you’re using but also including some contextual references of word pairs, and sentence pairs in your prompt which should corner the LLM into the right path.

Edit: not an expert so will heed if someone smarter comes along.
> Do you see a path forward for American labour that is less adversarial? Or is this endemic to labour unions and shareholder management?

I appreciate you asking. The path forward, in my opinion, is the "German model" [1] [2] where Labor is another seat at the Board and has representation at the top of an enterprise. How we get from here (where inequality of power, wealth, and cashflow is so great [3]) to there will be messy. No one wants to cede power willingly [4], and the pendulum swung too far towards Capital and management over the last half century (which makes it all the more challenging to find equilibrium). You need reasonable people who are not too self interested and understand why optimizing for the long term is desirable in positions of leadership. These people seem to be in short supply, in my experience. You also need trust (hard earned and easily lost) that those you have delegated your authority to will do the right thing.

TLDR Prisoner's dilemma cake cutting thought experiment. One person cuts, the other person picks the slice. Record profits are grossly underpaid wages. Target less profits (but still profits to account for capital at risk) and higher worker compensation.

Oh, no encoding of the turns? Then the encoding I came up with after following in the link to Forsyth–Edwards Notation is even better.

Version 1: For each position on the board, store if it has a piece or not. 8 bytes for that. Then for each piece in order, 4 bits can encode color and type. 16 bytes for that. Then you can spend 4 bits on castle ability, and 4 bits to pick the pawn that is able to be captured en passant (If there isn't one, pick a pawn that isn't in position. It's impossible for all the pawns to be in a vulnerable rank and have an enemy pawn in position.) So that's 25 bytes, no sweat.

Version 2: Instead of 4 bits per piece, store color|0 for a pawn, and color|1|type for anything else. Encode castle-eligible rooks and castle-ineligible rooks as separate types. This costs 14 bytes at the start of the game, and if you promote a piece at least one pawn has to die so the cost increases by 1 bit at most, up to 8 times. So 15 bytes, and you can always squeeze the bits for en passant eligibility into the 15th byte, because more promotions means fewer pawns to keep track of. You can even say whose turn it is by encoding "active turn king" and "inactive turn king" as different types. That's 23 bytes for the entire board state.

Either way you can add the turn counters with 2 more bytes.

Edit: Okay, this version beats mine solidly: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37526804 I was thinking wrong about the number of captures versus promotions, and you can get much more clever with encoding en passant. So 22 bytes or less is enough for this sort of method.

Note that the goal is to recreate "old-school Minecraft", but actually even older school than you're thinking of. For the first year or two of the game there was no survival mode, only creative mode. And people played that version for much longer as it was available as a free to play in-browser version for like the first 5 years of Minecraft's life, even as survival mode got developed in the branch that led to one of the current versions. Also the main branch didn't have creative mode at the time (or even multiplayer for some of it), so some people played classic for creative mode or multiplayer too.

It's not like the way modern creative mode is just a game mode in the same engine as modern survival. Classic is quite a different game so what would a classic survival mode be? Either you're inventing rules for a classic survival mode that didn't work, or you're implementing an Indev/Infdev/Alpha clone in the same codebase as the Classic clone, and I think those two things are different enough that you'd still end up just maintaining a fork inside the same codebase with the amount of conditional "if(alpha) else if (classic)" behaviours you'd need. It's like trying to have the same codebase be classic mac os and os x at the same time. I can't blame a maintainer who doesn't want to sign up for that.

I don't know that the resume needs to be formatted differently. But startups and FAANG companies may be looking for different sorts of people.

In my startups, what I'm looking for is primarily three things: that the applicant's interests are in line with what the startup is doing, that the applicant will mesh well with the rest of the team, and that the applicant is good at problem-solving and working without a great deal of supervision.

The specific skills the applicant has are important, but probably not "top 3" important. As long as I'm comfortable that they enjoy learning new things and are good at it, any specific skill they lack can be provided through training.

A resume/CV that makes it easy for me to see how the applicant matches those needs is one that is more likely to successfully get a callback from me.
But a lot of us enjoy eating unhealthy foods. And as long as we don't have diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, etc then it's not a problem.

> I really don’t believe in the whole “some breeds are inherently evil” thing.

I don't think anyone really claims that; or at least very few people claim that. It's about averages in behaviour, combined with the greater damage you mentioned. I think almost everyone agrees that on average there are differences in personality between dog breeds. These dogs have been responsible for more than half of deaths in recent years, and I don't think half the dogs in the UK are Bully XLs.

In the end basically nothing at all is lost by banning a few breeds beyond upsetting a few people who want a dog in a very peculiar shape and accept no other shapes, to which I say: "if you're such a dog lover then why do you care so greatly about the exact shape of your dog?"
Pedantically, with Applecare+, they don't. They confirm warranty status, accept the old watch, and give you a new one of similar vintage.

You're saying ProcessPoolExecutor is the "one obvious way to do it" but mention how the docs don't make this clear... That makes it not obvious. And since Python has built-in async/await keywords for asyncio now, shouldn't that be the one obvious correct way of doing concurrency?

Imagining I'm a newbie to Python concurrency, I Googled "concurrency in Python" and picked the first result from the official docs. https://docs.python.org/3/library/concurrency.html It's a list of everything except asyncio, and the first item on the list is the low-level `threading` :S At least that page mentions ThreadPoolExecutor, queue, and asyncio as alternatives, but I'm still lost on what is the correct way.
Sure, most of these items also cost next to nothing to make too and costs to actually make have barely risen (as a percentage of the item cost). So mostly it’s companies using inflation to squeeze more money out of people.
They're probably right within the EU tbh
You can use duplicate king identifiers to represent castling available, and replace the extra rook identifiers with "black king (my turn)" and "white king (my turn)" to store the turn in the same amount of space.

edit: You can then use the inverted/flipped board trick to store one bit of your piece list, down to 191 bits.

edit2: You only need one "king (my turn)" ID, which represents the whichever color you didn't use for the other king. You can use the extra value for another "my turn" piece that also sets a bit. 190 bits!

> Trading of a worker’s labor to a company is not a fair deal between two equal parties. The power imbalance between a company and a worker is massive.

I think this only holds true in certain limited cases. Certainly it was a lot more common a hundred years ago and especially in manufacturing jobs in locations with few employers; today many information workers have an extremely liquid market into which they can sell their time.

For the majority of the people here (ie working hackers), I don't think this is true at all. Big Tech is more dependent on its staff than the staff are dependent on Big Tech. This is one reason Google and Apple and others engaged in that illegal wage-fixing scheme: their staff were often availing themselves of their options to hop jobs for big raises.

Eric Schmidt and Steve Jobs (and others!) had to engage in an actual criminal conspiracy in order to tip the power balance back into the employer's favor.

My only hope is that in the future Apple designs an AirTag mini of sorts. Right now they're juust on the edge of being too big to keep strapped around their necks. They don't really seem to care, even at the current size, though.

I'm not sure I see how these two statements don't directly contradict each other? I read this as 1) try to amass all the things you can to conquer nature but 2) a reliance on things makes humans less useful?

"Dam failing" and "dam failing unexpectedly" are not comparable situations.

Floods happens all the time in the west, people dying from floods however is rare since when they happen we know why and how and when it will happen so we can evacuate people.

Libya failed to warn the people here, that is why so many died, that is the most significant failure and should have been the easiest part, it shows severe problems with their management of the dam. They should have known how much stress the dam can handle, and that this storm was likely to make it fail, and evacuate the people when failure was close.

In the west we would just say "the dam will likely fail due to bad maintenance", the destruction will be costly but lives wont be lost, and in many cases we can prematurely destroy parts of the dam to avoid destroying downstream infrastructure and that way come out of it almost scot free.
Thats odd, I thought it would've been the other way around. More reason for people to move to Jellyfin/others
> Got it. So they want to show the lawyers that they’re doing something to “combat piracy” even though they know it will do absolutely nothing and result in a bunch of pissed off legitimate customers.

What would be a better solution, legitimately? Plex is ripe for lawsuits from media giants in every corner of the world, so even if their software isn’t illegal, they’re always going to have a target on their back and enough lawsuits will bankrupt them anyways.
It's basically a dark pattern. Not illegal or anything, but designed to mask relevant information from the consumer.
> If the people in power are really smart though they’ll protect their constituents

They have no incentive to do so. If they were actual human beings with functioning consciences maybe, but we often see people use the word "smart" to mean "ruthless asshole without a functioning moral compass". Those people assume everyone else would torture their own grandmother for an extra dollar just like they would, and so everyone who's not abusing the system to its fullest extent is just dumber than them. So in fact the people who are likely to be in power, who have absolutely no incentive to protect their constituents, will likely be in on the con as much as they can, and will actually call themselves "smart" for doing so.
