> In the particular cases being discussed, there's no ambiguity: "is a" means "member of" and "is the" means equals.

Yes, and fitting just those cases would result in a model that handled other cases incorrectly, because idioms inconsistent with that rule exist. (“Jodie is the bomb” has a meaning distinct from the individual words taken separately which is not stating a reflexive equivalency, for instance.)
I feel the same. I really hate writing all those articles, posts, writing to people to get mostly rejected/ignored. But then again I grind it out
U.S. Issues Final Rules to Keep Chip Funds Out of China
I'm talking about raising a process privilege level, via whatever syscall mechanism. Which is a completely different code path than a process/thread context switch and, among other things, doesn't require going through the scheduler.
Good point, crypto never gets stolen or lost, very secure.

What's Happening to Visual Studio for Mac?
I see your point... I've never upgraded to the non-LTS Java versions (almost no one is doing it - as you can see in any survey about it - which in itself is enough for me not to be the "brave" one doing it!) so I don't know how much pain that would've been.
To me that just shows that Groovy could do with a bit more attention as I find it to be a great language, specially with Spock... it has made our tests so much nicer. It does have some warts but those are mostly a result of the lack of attention it receives, unfortunately, not some fundamental issues with the language.
i think your python version of `ls` is missing a few options
I see this with course creators as well. I reported dozens of errors in a particular corse and the creator was literally annoyed at me.
So using Rust without using unsafe, is akin to using CHERI while ensuring the toolchain and hardware has support.

If we can be careful enough to use Rust minus unsafe, then you’re getting all the benefit without needing special hardware.

I guess my problem with this approach is that it’s not a drop-in replacement. Something will get missed and you’ll lose any CHERI guarantees along with that.

It would be cool to have a QEMU CPU with CHERI support to test some of these scenarios.
I think it's more likely China will stop its own rise. Between draconian measures against citizens and workers, and the degradation of the environment, and the general Chinese economy, it's more self-defeating than it is a threat to America.
You mean like Elon did with Tesla? How many people have paid for FSD? How many of those cars are no longer on the road due to being too old or broken? Those people will never see FSD nor 10k they spent in it.

What happened to the robotaxies making you money so the car pays for itself? How many people bought that lie and bought a car?
I hope it's anchored in some way to the platform so that it cannot be pushed onto the tracks. At 420 pounds that could derail the train and have horrendous consequences.

Just because someone could be identified doesn't necessarily mean that some lunatic (or group thereof) wouldn't attempt it.
I like to say I’m anal retentive about being organized. This, I think, gets to the heart of why this colloquialism even exists/persists. “Desire to be organized” doesn’t fully capture the _intensity_ that some feel to be organized. However, I couldn’t agree more with everything you’ve said. This colloquialism needs to die.
Tracing Model Outputs to the Training Data
> The history pepper doesn't matter either way.

Having a clean history, where every commit is capable of being compiled, is quite nice. This will keep your CI happy and allow you to more easily use git bisect to determine when a bug was introduced to the codebase.

> There's a little value to think about that in the workflow I described

Sure. Git is flexible and doesn't require you to follow the workflow for which it was originally designed.
I have to disagree from personal experience; I did the same for a while but got into a paralysis when trying to find the right notes/tasks for a job but ending up having to write a whole new set of tasks causing unneeded fragmentation

What works for me is one single file with all my tasks ordered by priority, I can resort them comparing the top task to bottom until I have all my tasks sorted by priority, when a new task is added it's easy to tell where it slots in.

I find this easier to maintain, doesn't give me paralysis and things at the end can be culled if there too long.
To phrase my question another way: why is this on-topic?

> On-Topic: Anything that good hackers would find interesting. That includes more than hacking and startups. If you had to reduce it to a sentence, the answer might be: anything that gratifies one's intellectual curiosity.

> Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, or celebrities, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon. Videos of pratfalls or disasters, or cute animal pictures. If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably off-topic.
This is entirely true; rich people generally send their children to schools where they're treated with more dignity.
> maybe our males didn't find their females attractive enough to have sex with

That seems like an extraordinarily unlikely hypothesis, given the mating behavior I observe to be a close analog to the USPS Flat Rate service: "If it fits, it ships!"
Birds are dinosaurs.

Dinosaurs are not birds. At least not generally.

“Birds” and “Dinosaurs” are nouns.
Pagination is so hard. It deserves a book on its own. Do you show row numbers (100-200 of 800) or page numbers? Do you have the total count? Do you go to the next page with a cursor (an undecipherable hash) or with a page number? Can you go to the previous page? Can you go to the first page? Can you change pagination size? What options do you display given the room for the widget? It seems so specific that it might be a non-generalizable feature, as surprising as it could be. That, or some Apple guy, after a lot of research, will find a multifeature widget, where each details means a different thing.
Well, there is a population issue in China, a lack of men, and lack of couples having babies. India is overtaking China as having the most people.
>A stablecoin that moves in line with inflation.

Who measures inflation? Why, the same central bankers crypto people inveigh against. This coin will give them a lovely arbitrage opportunity against all the holders.
I was able to get prompt and effective support from VoIP.ms, a company I pay something like $1.50/month. I once contacted Aruba support regarding hardware I bought secondhand and they replaced it for me. That many software companies choose to (and for some reason are permitted to) operate at scale beyond which they can meaningfully support their products doesn't mean that it's fundamentally impossible to receive support without paying a lot.
I was really in to this stuff as well - eventually I just settled for awk, it works pretty well
If Sydney is too expensive, I don't see why people don't move elsewhere?

I wanted to live in Sydney, I moved, I haven't noticed any decrease in my quality of life except I'm 100% less stressed about money.

The thing that strikes me about Australia's property prices are, who will be the generation to pay prices like this again? I personally can't imagine the prices to eventually go anywhere but down.
TSA Policy on Light Sabers
What may save the crypto revolution is future bank failures. I think that’s where the public will discover its true utility.
So what you are saying is that EAL >=5 does not imply secure, it is the formal methods that imply secure?

Well good news, that is not a mistake. EAL >=5 implies formal methods of various degrees. The standard demands the thing that works, amazing. It might be too hard for consumer companies to achieve, but that does not make the process a farce as long as there are companies that can certify useful functionality according to the process. And, although you seem to think the functionality that can be certified is limited, I doubt you consider secure cryptographic co-processors useless or unimportant.
Startup time is definitely relevant for any kind of user-facing application. I'm sure the JIT versions are actually faster since both languages (specially Java) have features that benefit greatly from it.

But if I'm loading a constraint solver into my Python app I don't want it to drag a massive JVM around and take 3 seconds to load up. Same with an emulator, most emulators load up in milliseconds.
It basically means OpenBank API mandatory just to financial companies, not to consumer, potentially any enterprise can ask to have OpenBank API access if it meet certain criteria and then it can get and commit any transaction from all EU banks. So potentially offer to their customers full API access to their EU banks, for anything, disposing transactions as well locally instead of via some crappy website. This also means having legally valid local transactions (XML/XADES or JSON/JADES signed by the bank).
I've been using ! in ipython a lot. Maybe I should switch to fish though. I haven't figured out how to get the history database in zsh to work the way I want. It is often convenient to save the output of ! and run Python on it, though.
That's the plan, but it's not there yet.
We really should look at ads as this service where random strangers get to run Javascript in your browser.

They're an attack vector, and ads should be treated like the security/privacy threats that they are.
Overhead? Ethereum uses almost no power, if that's what you mean.

Show HN: MagicProspect – Generate AI-driven sales dossiers
hey everyone, our hackathon team identified a problem in the sales pipeline where we noticed the sales team on our company spends a considerable amount of their time surfacing data about a prospect to do pre-screenings, so with that in mind we decided to create this tool where with a prospect email we're able to create a pre-screening doc using public data and AI.

We'd love for you to check it out, kick the tyres and help us make sure we're on the right track. Any and all feedback are highly appreciated.
Very cool. It must be a credit to the developer for contributing an easy-to-use PGO target.
Just a reminder that there was an example of a company using blockchain to track inventory, admittedly in a pilot project, shared on HN just ten days ago - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37469811

Their reasons was: "If you are wondering about using a p-Chip instead of an RFID tag, the former boasts several advantages. According to the maker, p-Chip devices are smaller, cheaper (a few cents each), tougher, and more secure than nearest competitor RFID."

I don't claim to be sufficiently versed in these fields to critique, and I'm not trying to start an ideological war here, but I felt it important to highlight that legitimate companies in America continue to explore its use cases.

uBlock can become decently complicated too if you enable "I'm an advanced user" in the settings menu

I think it can be made to do the same things as uMatrix with advanced mode (I use medium mode on uBlock) - or am I wrong on this? Ive never used uMatrix before
Is this more or less of a vulnerability than VS Code's Live Share? https://code.visualstudio.com/learn/collaboration/live-share
Yeah this is the solution I'm imagining in my head. IMO the true separation between design and dev is that designers are responsible for pixels-on-screen. They manage visual behavior, whereas developers manage functional behavior.
It’s sad a proper table is not in the standard. We got a kinds of ridiculously complicated bullshit CSS transitions, but some kind of basic lazy-loading table with pagination is beyond us apparently.
Here's the test report for the 2021 EAS and WEA tests:

EAS: https://docs.fcc.gov/public/attachments/DOC-378861A1.pdf

WEA: https://docs.fcc.gov/public/attachments/DOC-378907A1.pdf

EAS is based on reporting (like a questionnaire) from EAS participants - so the parties that are supposed to receive and retransmit alerts.

WEA comes from two sources - the wireless carriers, and a survey of end-users (volunteers). In addition, the 2021 test was effectively opt-in - the upcoming test will actually target all cellphones (which was how the 2018 test was performed).

In the 2018 test report, they said they mostly got feedback through a variety of sources (direct public feedback, as well as information from surveys from different government agencies).

As for the actual useful purpose of national level alerts? I'd agree that outside of a nuke strike... not a lot. (In)famously, EAS was not activated on 9/11. Seems that a national level test is probably most useful as a way for the federal government to keep an eye on the total system.

Separately from the utility of the national test, the national test is required by law.
Been in the Web3 space as a side hustle for something like 2 years now and the only real usecase I’ve seen is something like USDC transfers over Solana.

Everything else is just a scam and/or ponzi.

Add to that that the price of coins is manipulated by market makers and exchanges (CEX and DEX) and it’s not looking good, honestly.

Regulation would actually improve the space a lot. Something like a national ticker for coins would go a long way to clearing out a lot of the scum.

This is probably my fault. Internally at Harness I have been hyping this launch as a "once in a decade" event. That unfortunately got translated into "first in a decade" when it hit the press. I do think the launch of a new, major open source Source Control system with kind of investment (12 full time engineers and counting) is a rare event, but I do wish it was worded differently. Nothing we can do about it now!
Not sure I like the logic here. By labeling me as a hobbyist, you're suggesting that I shouldn't be surprised businesses ignore my needs because I'm not a "real" consumer?

In my world any paying customer buying and using a product was considered a consumer of it. I probably spend more money on tech than the average user. Shouldn't make me part of some core "power user" sub-demographic? I used to build computers. I design and program embedded systems. I'm constantly purchasing/using all sorts of tech both at work and at home. But you're suggesting stuff like this is somehow "not for me"? I can do all of this on on Windows. I can do all of this on Linux. The only place I can't seem to use these features is on Apple product.

Cars are used in many different ways. Some people use them to get to work. Some people work on them themselves, soup them up, restore them, etc. GM doesn't seem to have a problem catering to all of these crowds simultaneously.

Labeling this as a hobbyist problem just seems like handwaving to explain why I shouldn't be alarmed at the trend of taking our ability to use and control our computers away from us.

Is this just Apple apologism, or do you think it's ok when companies generally take away our ability to own and repair the products we purchase?

That’s not hard. Hard is solving world hunger, making cars drive themselves. You literally counted all major issues in one simple comment.
Look, most of the surface area it’s talking about is quite new, often still nominally experimental, and quite a bit not supported across all browsers (most commonly Chromium-only, with some Chromium-and-Safari-since-March-but-not-Firefox-yet; and note that none of them have an implementation but lack a Chromium implementation, even though there are a few possible features that meet these criteria—this is one of a few things that show the heavy Chromium bias in the survey).
Good point, with complex UI it's hard to satisfy everyone. You end up with the html date picker, which technically works though I imagine most people end up implementing their own anyways.

I recently started working for a web3 company - and I am a crypto skeptic, I joined because it was founded by two former coworkers who I enjoyed working with. We're a data SaaS in the space and even though it's a bear market, we're doing pretty well. There are a lot of real businesses building on top of various chains that aren't just scams/shady (though there are plenty of those too). Just the sheer amount of business activity I see on a daily basis that looks like the web2 SaaS work I did for the prior 8 years when it wasn't a bear market makes me pretty optimistic that eventually these businesses (and many others) will find sustainable ways to operate using blockchains, it's just going to take some time, it's still really early in the space.

At least on the Ethereum side of things, I see success being less about a particular crypto currency and more about how smart contracts and the underlying EVM layers evolve to operate decentralized applications at scale. It's still not something I think is guaranteed. I didn't think Linux was a guaranteed success when I worked at Red Hat in the 90s either, but it became more certain when we started selling services and put less focus on box sales.

I agree.

Survivorship bias makes me say "I want to see the stories of all the solopreneurs who failed."

The is the obvious next step for the industry/technology. I think a better answer is to maximally reduce the potential fallout from a compromised employee.

This is easier said then done and if you go the direction of complicated procedures employees will usually just try to bypass procedures entirely.

However I think there is a middle ground or a sweet spot here. The tech has come a long way in the past decade or so. Its pretty easy to have a set up where almost no employee can deploy to production from their local machine.

Its also the easiest its ever been to have a sandboxed production environment and a near parallel staging environment.
Somehow I doubt it’s ~$20B/year, which would put it at parity with crypto losses.

Functional programming that doesn't deal with money? Communism. In my experience people will say X is not true capitalism because true capitalism won't have X's downsides.
Couldn't agree more. There seems to be some fundamental human dynamic at play here that I don't fully understand. Teachers and school administrators know exactly who they bullies are, yet they will tolerate and even actively enable them. They will punish any victim of bullying who dares to fight back with alacrity.

My personal and unproven theory is that most school staff are bullies/cowards themselves (two sides of the same coin). They have a instinctive fear of punishing bullies and dealing with the blowback from their parents because the odds are good that bully parents will raise bully kids. Victims are often socially awkward and an easy target to punish without much risk to the teacher.
When someone mentions HN and Dropbox, they are usually mentioning the infamous comment by BrandonM which is the top comment in your first link.

> They seem to do logical deduction when prompted to do so.

Well, yes, narratives that look like reasoning and have accurate cobclusions are more common in their training data with langauge that references reasoning before them, so prompts that call for reasoning explicitly produce narration that looks like reasoning. (And which has more accurate conclusions, too.)

An Analysis of Revenues at the Comédie-Française, 1680–1793
Small sample size and undocumented sampling methods. Also this message brought to you in part by Amazon, Facebook, Microsoft, and Apple [1] - somehow I don't think they're against the surveillance part. Catchy title though!

[1] https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Center_for_Democracy_and_Tec...
For example, the evidence in GP’s post is that the child wishes an adult could see what happens when the teacher leaves the room. This sounds like a kid telling their parent about a problem at school, not a kid idly musing about surveillance.

I think the kids haven’t changed, it’s parents and admin. Setting aside whether we think teachers should be able to leave, the fact of the matter is that it’s a massive liability.

The teacher is responsible for the care of the children under their charge. Probably you would be understanding, but all it takes is one terrible moment, and one parent screaming to the superintendent that the teacher negligently left little Timmy unsupervised to cause a huge problem for the teacher and school admin.

Anyway, it’s very easy to get someone to cover your class for five minutes while you make copies or take a leak.

Any theory that would supplant special relativity must agree with special relativity on everything that has already been experimentally verified. So it's not the theory of special relativity that's an article of faith, it's the associated mountain of evidence that imposes requirements on new theories.
