Asking literally anyone except police is a good start. Police are acting as privileged gatekeepers of information and saying "just trust me bro". I expect HN community members to carry themselves to a higher standard here and really dig in. I'm sorry to say it but I'm really starting to doubt your sincerity.

Plenty of experts on primer residue and other forensics topics out there. "Is it possible that this amount of residue is due to the bullets shot at and into Tortuguita and not due to shots fired from a weapon held by him? Do you find it credible that wounds such as those through the palms of Tortuguita coincide with the narrative that he was wielding a gun at the time of his death?" Easy peasy, and I didn't even go to school for journalism. I'm sure there's other means of finding credible information. They could also quote those other activists who were witness to the death and put those quotes on equal footing with those from the police, but they don't.

Assuming you meant "doubt": then you're playing a one-sided game while scolding others for what you perceive is one-sidedness. To me it is hypocritical to do so.

There is a twitter shaped hole in the internet because the people who are unhappy with it only develop solutions to problems they think other people have instead of making something someone else wants.

The people trying to replicate twitter with a new version are indexed on "fixing" the slightly annoying things users put up with - without making something so good that users put up with the annoying things.

What made old twitter viable was it was a literal carnival where the plebes could parade around like famous people and famous people could pretend to be plebes. It failed when the government infiltrated it and conspired to ban comedians because their policies were vulnerable to the mockery they had earned. What anti-Elon people want today is a way to ingratiate themselves to power and its shifting narratives without shame, sort of like if LinkedIn had users, or an Onlyfans subscription you could say is for the articles. You can't say it, you just have to build it, but these "something must be done" posts are tedious.

I don't see how personal recommendations are corrupt. If you have a known good employee, and they can attest to someone being a good fit based on previous direct experience with that person, that's a pretty strong signal. If the recommendation comes from someone not so great, or if it's more of a referral than a recommendation, you can weight it appropriately.

I think "everything we learned is a lie" is also a "lie." The news media seems to be full of people that are very similar to "normal people," like our parents and prior generations, that were and are trying to over-confidently distill certainty from vast and abundant ambiguity, and do so somewhat poorly. It's also amazing how forgiving our societies are, or how readily we escape personal consequences for mild to relatively serious false beliefs, and how slow we are to correct, even in the face of mounting evidence. It sometimes seems that while we may progress in some areas, we regress equally in others, like there's a natural conservation of folly, generation after generation of random walks. Maybe there's something adaptive to gullibility, because it surely hasn't killed off enough to diminish the prevalence. But I agree, every generation seems to confidently crystalize a gestalt of falsehoods, and pass those on to a new generation that are in the midst of over-correcting their own way to a new crystalized gestalt of falsehoods.
I wasn't expecting much based on the headline, but this is a great roundup of the pros and cons of applying AI to different technical facets of security. What it's missing is that the human factor is what makes the real difference to the security of a product or organization: changing or adapting to user behavior, convincing managers and developers to allocate time to security as well as features, or to alter or even forego a feature that carries more risk than it's worth.

In some cases, AI can probably help explain these issues better or analyze factors to help determine how to balance security vs. revenue, but a lot of the work is really in building relationships and trust over time to educate and influence behavior and priorities.

This is awesome. I still keep around an ImageWriter II I found in a dumpster two decades ago because they're incredibly reliable and will print no matter what. Ribbons are plentiful and cheap, the printer doesn't care about the kind of paper, and even detailed QR codes and barcodes work fine if you blow them up a bit.

But what's better than a printer that can work with almost any computer made in the last four decades?

I just recently got a LocalTalk card for my ImageWriter II, and between this article and a recent one about custom ROMs for Macs (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37471321), I'm considering having a dedicated m68k machine that can bridge AppleTalk on ethernet with LocalTalk.

Besides the Move and Leak traits mentioned in this article, there are several changes I would make to the standard library if backwards compatibility wasn't a concern, including:

Changing Iterator to make use of Generic Associated Types.

Change std::env::set_var to be unsafe. Because using it in multithreaded program causes undefined behavior for any c code that reads the environment (which includes quite a few libc and posix functions).

Change channels to have a better API that is mpmc and closer to crossbeam.

And probably others I can't think of at the moment.

As someone who use Twitter sparingly and turned off all suggestions (there are list of words you can mute for that), it still works just fine.

I think people who are social (media) butterflies and/or are opinion leaders on social issues are affected the most by the degradation of content moderation as the more you engage the public the more the public engages you, including all the unsavory elements.

If you, like me, just use Twitter as some sort of glorified/souped-up RSS feed, then nothing’s really changed. I think this is the healthiest way to engage with Twitter anyways.

It's important to ask, because your sources are not referring to the same thing. The first is a reference to training techniques that have nothing to do with CoreML or Apple hardware. The second thing you've linked is a transformer model from 2022 that was ported to CoreML (alongside Pytorch, ONNX and 10+ other execution providers).

It's extremely unclear how any of these sources corroborate your claim, particularly the first link. It's why I asked for clarification.

> making the language "assigned at birth" inaccurate from a scientific standpoint

That's a strawman argument about semantics ("assign" in English does not always mean "soviet-style"), which I'm not going to bother engaging with.

> Scientific writing should not be a product of it's date and political climate.

By virtue of using language, it virtually always is. For example, the common/acceptable way of referring to ethnicities changed over time. It's virtually impossible in anything involving humans to have language (and therefore scientific language) not evolve over time.

> From a scientific standpoint, Female and Male are clearly defined.

And how do you distinguish the "scientific" female and male from the "colloquial" female and male, without leaving it ambiguous according to the "political background" of the reader? Or rather, what if, in a purely hypothetical future English, "female" and "male" refer unambiguously to the gender people identify as? It seems like you would like scientific writing to conform specifically (and only) to what you consider acceptable language _right now_, and are not actually particularly interested in accessibility to future readers.

When visiting various countries in Europe (Italy, Spain, etc) I've run across the equivalent of farmers markets where they have varying types of infused oils. The oils often have the seeds/herbs/etc. in the bottle. I wonder what method these vendors use.

> where the vast majority of sharing was happening over messengers

Arguable — mass-mailing async updates (think: postcards) about your life has been ubiquitous for as long as people have been going off and doing interesting things. This evolved into mass-emails. I was BCC'ed a lot of "wedding photos.zip" and "in paris.jpg"s emails in the 1990s; much more often than such a thing was ever directed at me by a friend or relative, let alone directed at me synchronously in a messenger app.

Remember also: messengers back in the 90s and early 2000s didn't have a concept of "server-buffered message sends." For a message to transmit over AIM/ICQ/MSN/etc, both people had to be online at the same time. If you were travelling — and so potentially in a separate time zone — messengers really didn't work very well as a way to send large image files. Until very late in the lives of their protocols, most of them didn't even support sending files!
>What's the motivation for people to host model layers in the public swarm?

>People who run inference and fine-tuning themselves get a certain speedup if they host a part of the model locally. Some may be also motivated to "give back" to the community helping them to run the model (similarly to how BitTorrent users help others by sharing data they have already downloaded).

>Since it may be not enough for everyone, we are also working on introducing explicit incentives ("bloom points") for people donating their GPU time to the public swarm. Once this system is ready, we will display the top contributors on our website. People who earned these points will be able to spend them on inference/fine-tuning with higher priority or increased security guarantees, or (maybe) exchange them for other rewards.

It does seem like they want a sort of centralized token however.
That’s how you communicate when you have a first date set with someone you’ve only talked to through messages. At this point, you can only mess it up and nothing you say can substantially help.

Personally, Twitter felt like the most interconnected place on the planet. It was an incredible conduit for ideas to flow across, at absurdly high radix. It's moderation team did an incredible job doing just enough taming, and the team did an impressive job resisting manipulation by various governments.

Almost every one of these excellences seems at risk now. And the situation feels like it's confirming a certain fatalism, that good services don't last; on a long enough timeline all services lose their luster, fall from their high perch.

The outlining of three paths seems ok-ish. Mastodon is presented as the one & only semi-decentralized approach. But I think it's too early, too premature to call. We're not very far into exploring how we might interconnect with each other, not far into working out protocols that might serve.

Personally, I don't feel like change has to come soon suddenly or with huge adoption. This is a huge hole, and creating more resilient protocols that can adapt and thus survive & flourish long term is something that is going to require years of experimentation & trying, isn't one big pioneering experiment but many different pioneers making many settlements, and those individual attempts sharing & swapping ideas about whats working amd what's not.

I do see huge hope in ActivityPub as a possible long term candidate. Making more services and clients seems like a long next work. Alas I think there's some difficulty right now, culturally; the bluesky community has a bit of a grudge against Mastadon, says it hasn't been a pleasant place, and I think that's true. And Mastadon has been the stable reference implementation, with not enough competition & other folks trying their own hand in the sector. We're not learning nearly asuchas we should be. More efforts are required.
This makes me think of my experiences in Europe.

In my native language (English), I can twist and weasel with the language to keep from committing to... anything. It has -- too many degrees of freedom available to me.

With German, though [where I'm intermediate], I don't have that flexibility. My conversations are really straightforward and what comes out is simple enough that I can express it. I'd say that this does come at the cost of understanding and expressing nuance and condition, but maybe that's actually helpful.

It's a reasonably continuous storyline for the end user, which is what matters given the topic.

We do eat meat plain. Not poultry typically, but give me a Dutch oven and with little more than some oil and water I can easily prepare a delicious 3 hour braise of chuck roast that can gently shred apart with a fork. The fat is delicious, it melts out to a liquidy goodness that bathes the meat. Get a nice charred sear on both sides before adding the braising liquid, you’ll have flavorful goodness.

Adding more ingredients only enhances the flavor, but it’s not necessary if your taste buds aren’t hyperstimulated. Meat tastes good.
