Hey - where do you live? When are you not present in your place? Just asking out of curiosity.
Adventures come to those who seek them. One can find big expensive adventures for six months out in the mountains, or small free/low cost adventures like volunteer fire fighting, painting, rock climbing, cooking, dancing, acting, making music, deep friendships.

Our lives are filled with exactly the richness we seek. Travel is just a catalyst to get us up off our sofas and make new friends. Having moved many times, I can assure you that one can do that today without moving.

I've met many unemployed travelers who mope inside all day and watch Netflix. I've also met many hard working people who've lived in the same house for twenty years but live rich, incredible lives filled with small adventures.
Actually your post containing the sweeping statement doesn't contain any evidence.

You haven't substantiated your claim.
Yes, nothing I like better when immersed in a fantasy world than to read an ad for some shitty IRL product. Not at all jarring.
Maybe space is just so big that, even if there’s plenty of intelligent life inside our light cone, it’s still all far enough away that we can’t detect it (yet).
If you're not bound to Linux, FreeBSD's jails are excellent.
As somebody who’s been on Twitter since 2008, you couldn’t be more wrong. The site has never felt more alive, anyone vaguely tangential to TPOT or other Twitter subcultures could tell you the same. The difference now is that more of the conversation is happening amongst actual users and less so amongst corporations as I assume is the case for your client.

Personally, I’m totally happy if Burger King and Tom’s Plumbing leave Twitter and head to Mastodon, they weren’t the ones making it a good platform in the first place.
I will be sure to remember to hit the ATM during week one of a horrible war.
Have you never walked into a store and they said you can't use a CC because their reader is down? It is nice to have a few dollars in your pocket for times like that.
I don't know about your German skills, but reading the Reddit threat may be eye-opening (even if your company is different).

I generally agree with your "gonna be an asshole because you had a negative experience yourself" comment, but reading the comments it more seems like corporate HR (as a whole across virtually all companies) has fostered a culture of broadly ghosting job applicants. If you experienced this once, your comment applies, but if you experienced it a couple dozen times (as some people in the thread have), then I don't think your "weak character" judgement is accurate. It is more "learning how things are done here", with "here" being the job applications space.
Excellent, and fits well with this other post on the front page, about ads inserted into a Terry Pratchett novel.

Wipe out the networks and your cash is useless too. Why would I want your useless slips of paper?
It's probably worth keeping some (few hundred dollars maybe) cash around for a variety of reasons. But pretty much no store is going to be able to (or at least try to) sell you anything if they don't have power--the most likely scenario. Maybe some emergency supplies in a natural disaster but I pretty much guarantee you my local Walmart is closing its doors if there's no power.

And, as others note, CC readers in an individual store do go down though I probably won't have much cash in my pocket even if I have some at home.
Ah, yeah, that'll take a few days to readjust to.
interesting. in that case I'd use widgets on an ipad which support all of those use cases.
Could be a great little earner for writers of "airport novels", especially since that style of thriller often uses brands of clothes worn, vehicles driven, locations visited, drinks consumed, and firearms fired to build a connection with the real world anyway.
People living in those millionaire mansions can explain how (or perhaps more importantly: why) things became that way.

But they may not want to shed too much light on that, I suppose. Wouldn't want to disturb their lifestyle any more than necessary.

As great as Nix is, a security update to something like glibc will necessitate a rebuild of the entire universe as a necessary consequence of its "immutable, hashed inputs" model.

Here's my radical take: humans hallucinate as much or more than the top LLMs. Heck, depending on the human, nearly everything they think and say is functionally a hallucination according to the metrics in use here.

When it comes to what LLM's write, I find that LLM hallucinations are like self-driving car crashes. We are hyper-aware of the machine doing something that we ourselves do every single day and consider a normal defect of biological conscious.

Not discounting the effort it takes to build a tool like this. It has, however, been done to death.
I think the author is unaware that `tar --compress-program foo` is equivalent to `tar | foo` (other than handling output writing and things.

The analysis would have been much simpler, clearer and more focused on the compressor if they just benchmarked the compression with an already-generated tar archive.

(Notably zip is different where files are compressed individually in the archive)
The more ghosting happens, the more it permeates. The one getting ghosted, and feeling shit, will do the same. Because it's no longer an exception, but rather the norm.
For travel, etc. it's absolutely a good idea to have multiple redundant cards (that aren't issued by the same bank). I haven't had issues for years, but I have had issues in the past and it's a lot easier to just pull out a different card than deal with international calls trying to get a problem resolved on the spot.
How would you handle that if written in scientific notation with other units? It's still entirely a separate issue to the units used.
AI Chatbots: Revolutionizing Customer Support and Beyond
Artificial Intelligence (AI) chatbots have become an integral part of modern customer support, offering swift and efficient responses to user queries. These intelligent virtual agents can handle a wide range of tasks, from answering frequently asked questions to providing personalized recommendations.

One of the key advantages of AI chatbots is their ability to operate 24/7, ensuring that customers receive assistance anytime they need it. Moreover, they can handle multiple conversations simultaneously, drastically reducing response times and improving customer satisfaction.

Beyond customer support, AI chatbots are finding applications in various industries. They are being used for automating repetitive tasks, streamlining processes, and even assisting in medical diagnoses. As AI technology continues to advance, chatbots are evolving to understand context better, offer more human-like interactions, and adapt to user preferences.

In this fast-paced world of technology, AI chatbots are at the forefront of enhancing user experiences and improving operational efficiency across various domains. As businesses and developers continue to innovate, the potential applications of AI chatbots are limitless, promising a future where intelligent virtual assistants play a pivotal role in our daily lives.
As someone who loves writing in 3 languages (French and German being my native languages, English the third), playing with Claude (and to a lesser degree gpt4) has actually made me play and investigate the nuances of languages so much more. It does a great job of course doing stylistic transformations, which on their own are always stilted, but are great inspiration. But it also does a phenomenal job at explaining the nuances between the language, say when I want to explain why a certain German phrasing “feels” different to me.

Certainly seeing the amount of people never learning the language of the country they emigrated to, this is a problem we already have (and in my situation, never going to country where I don’t speak the language).

I think humans are going to continue nerding with language just as much as they ever have, I do really think it’s an innate drive, and llms are a mind blowing tool to do just so.

I moved to Portugal from the UK 6 years ago partly for tax reasons.

This is definitely the other side of ghosting.

If you ask my dad, I am 100% sure he would tell you I have ghosted him. In reality, I told him repeatedly, over the course of years, that if he would not speak to me with at least a base level of civility, I would stop talking to him, and then when I did stop, I ended with, "Because you continue to refuse to speak to me with at least a base level of civility..."

And it's not like I just put up with it for years. Each time, I would go slightly longer without speaking to him. But eventually I would guilt myself into, "But he's your father. You have to try again." But it didn't matter how long the break was. Nothing changed. So I finally realized there was no more good to come of being in touch, told him so, and cut contact.

I imagine a lot of people have this experience with narcissists. And if they see your action as "ghosting," so be it.

I find this take so interesting. Here's a tool so faultless your biggest gripe with it is some obscure interaction 99.99% of people wont even be aware of, and you want to replace the tool because of it.

This would be the equivalent of me buying a great car and disliking the fact that when you pull the carpets up there's a hard to reach clip that needs to be undone, so I decide to sell it and get a different car.

I see this happen with all great tools. It irons out all the important kinks, and people still find some obscure reason to fault the tool enough to switch.

(To be clear, I am aware Docker has issues beyond what GP is dealing with)

I don't get it, why do this, when you would just insert a pamphlet of an ad between the pages of each book (as a bookmark) or put a single 4sheet of ad between the pages as it is bound?

Both would be unacceptable to me, but at least it wouldn't be AS horrifying as literally editing the text and putting product placement in between the story lines.

there is evil and then there is stupid.
If you're exposed to figures written in scientific notation, then learn scientific notation (it's not even hard, the number represents the number of zeros you'd write if you had to write it entirely: 5000 = 5⋅10³ / 5E3, 0,0003 = 3⋅10^-4).

As said above, it has nothing to do with the metric system anyway, it's just about dealing conveniently with very big or very tiny value (1⋅10^-9 meter is 3.9⋅10^-8 inch, no matter the unit you're using you'd be using scientific notation to express things that small instead of dealing with 8 or 9 zeros).

After 6 months of training I went from 150W/h to 200W/h. For most bikes, 100W is like riding 18-20km/h.

If you are going to create a custom dictionary you may as well use zstd.

IIRC the main "innovation" that Brotli brings to compression is a default dictionary trained on web content. So if you are replacing this you best use the better algorithm.
On the other hand, people seem to listen to what they like to hear. 'T digs coal' and 'climate change is mostly a hoax', 'we are going to replace <disgrace> with _something much better_'. I don't believe a majority believed it but they acted differently. So my tentative conclusion would be, the public is the problem. Which is sadly even worse than 'platform X is the problem'.
Typically go bags are emergency items meant for immediate "GO"ing during or right before a natural disaster, forced evacuation, civil unrest, or condemnation of your living space.

We use Kata Containers to create Firecracker VMs from Kubernetes. Works really well for us. Though I am hoping there will be a more specific solution for Firecracker, as we don't need any other runtimes (which kind of ruins the purpose of Kata).
Does this help the people who have a compelling need for closure? The "why" is still totally open. What makes it any easier for someone to let go of an open "why" than an open "what"?

> What's the benefit of DHCPv6 over SLAAC (genuine question, never looked into DHCPv6 at all)

In corporate-y environments it allows for easier tracking of user-MAC-IP mappings for auditing purposes. If you use SLAAC there is no auto-logging as the client simply picks an address itself.

One way to do tracking with SLAAC could be to SNMP scrape/trap ipNetToPhysicalTable of RFC 4293. Another would be 802.1X or MAC authentication (interim) accounting via RADIUS (RFC 2866).

> I'd create a chat bot that sneaks in responses that are in favor of my agenda

They're already doing this as there's a clear far left bias/lecturing that occurs in the models, especially those put out by OpenAI.
The news is that TLF spent just 3.2% of its funds on the Linux kernel. It dwindled from a paltry 3.4% in the previous year. Meanwhile, Linux developers are giving up on their LTS kernel due to lack of resources.

That news had many defending the foundation, saying that their other projects get equally low funding. However, it makes me wonder how these foundations would fare in terms of income if they didn't use the name of a popular open source project. It's likely that a lot of donors have the misconception that their money goes to the namesake project - this is especially true for Mozilla.

Clearly you've never tried to format code in either an issue description or comment.

And I can only guess you've never had a product manager justifying their jobs by adding in a bajillion custom fields and field values into an issue. And then filters that use those. This case is a user problem, but the Jira does little to prevent or help.

Feels like artificial outrage to me. I'm not convinced the people who can afford a $10k-17k smart watch and bought it in 2015 are surprised it's now going to be unsupported.

It probably also still has some collector type value, and at least $2-3k of gold scrap value.
Awesome.

I remember when everybody played basically this exact machine in middle school when we used to sneak to the market during recess. There used to be all kinds of different varieties of slot machines at basically every market and gas station in Finland, regulated by a sanctioned monopoly called RAY. Nobody really cared if you played one at whatever age, especially in the 90's. Wild times.
Hm odd, none of these seem to include ai “training”. It allows for human teaching but that’s far from ingesting data in a token database.

Lol. Awesome theming. For a minute I was stuck wondering "why is there a link to a screenshot on the HN frontpage"?
You can use hackersmacker.org, a browser extension I built, to highlight HN authors while reading on the web. And if the people you follow also use it, you’ll see friend-of-friends and foe-of-a-friends.
I actually had a friend ghost me for more than a year even though we lived in the same town (<50k people, so not even a huge town). He knew what I normally did well enough just not to be in those places, and I genuinely thought he had moved away or something.

I was totally confused when he reached out later telling me it had been on purpose and about issues between us that I hadn't even known were a problem.

I thought it was my connection. Yes, I have had issues this morning.
Yes, making the fallacy of picking extreme cases and applying it to every case will get you the result you want.

The proper way to asses things is not to post select evidence, but to pick every example of price lowering at a given time, and see how many become the situation you now describe. So, care to tell us what percent of price lowering incidents end up as extreme? I'd guess well under 1 in a million, but I may be off an order of magnitude in either direction.

By your reasoning, every time a person enters my house I should inform them they may kill me, since once in a while a person does enter a house, then kill the occupant.

However, I'd be a nut to act this way. Because the vast majority of cases does not end up in murder.

So, just like that, bringing up extreme cases for normal actions is also fear mongering nonsense. Yes, this could end up tis way. They could use this as a leverage point to take over the entire planet, enslave all humans, and turn us into Matrix-human-batteries. But continuing to harp on this as if any of it is likely is statistically unwarranted.

So, please answer - what fraction of price lowering events do you think ends up
in the situation you keep implying this might be an example of?
