You should know that your position is societally untenable.

Excellent example: in the early days of Reddit, they very much had a "you can post anything that is not illegal" policy, and this led to subreddits like jailbait, fatpeoplehate, etc. Around 2012 I think (someone can look up the exact date) there was a coordinated effort to shine a bright media spotlight on the "underbelly" subreddits that made a ton of Internet and national news, e.g. features by Anderson Cooper on CNN, prominent op eds in NY Times, etc. Reddit changed course and specifically banned sexually suggestive pictures of minors and those without consent.

I have an opinion, but I am not arguing here for whether the decision was "right" or "wrong". I am simply pointing out that Reddit had 0 choice in the matter. If they had held firm with their "anything that's legal" policy, they would simply not exist today. They would have been deplatformed to the nth degree, and furthermore laws would have (and actually have, e.g. in the case of revenge porn) changed to make their existence untenable. E.g. platforms like Reddit can't exist without Section 230, which is already under attack and I guarantee would have been removed if you had lots of platforms saying they're fine with people posting unknown, sexually suggestive pictures of minors. Nevermind having 0 advertisers willing to pay their bills.

I'm not crazy about "SV moral arbiters" either, but I don't like posts like yours because they pretend a reality that doesn't exist.
Better yet, let’s have a prominent app category called “No data collected”. This is what I really want from every program I use including desktop. Major letdown from Mozilla on this front contrary to their marketing.
> The Chinese internal market size is four times the size of the US market for consumer goods. And that's apart from the the Chinese rolling in cash reserves that lets them afford to build lots of infrastructure, just like the US was able to build back in the 1950s and 1960s.

I was under the impression that large amounts of the infrastructure projects were debt-financed. Is this not the case?
Goupby may be the higher abstraction, but it's not necessarily better.

Dimensional models are basically modules (generalised linear spaces), a groupby can do the same things but doesn't really give much useful structure to work with (at best the result is ordet independent, most of the time).

This is also why sums and counts tend to be more useful than averages.

Society needs far less money to function than is captured by taxes. There are US states without an income tax - the majority of government spending that is relevant to an individual is provided the state government in the US.
> Hinton believes that Donald Trump's posts aren't really about facts or their authenticity but are about distilling his beliefs by having his followers learn a probability distribution that carries a rich signal.

That's the stuff! Love the information theory approach. Where it gets hairy is if most of the 'rich signal' is social - "We like this guy!" / "We hate this nasty woman!" It's compelling information, but based in tribal politics and quickly untethers from ground truth facts.

The 'teacher / student' model vs backprop has the potential to shine a light on human relationships. It's computationally expensive to learn from scratch. Being taught means placing the teacher where the world would go, imbibing a compressed (and emotionally heightened) distillation, along with biases.
Ask HN: What do you think about development productized services?
I've seen a few successful productized services but most are design, marketing or SEO.

But what do you think about development, do you think is viable?

Well, that too short comment of mine might be slightly disingenuous, considering what you might have thought I meant by this, but here's an overview :

I seem to remember that he practiced what he preached (not only as the first ever professor of economics, but also as a pastor), and has founded at least one school for women, but annoyingly I can't seem to find the source any more ??

Of note also : by the end of the 19th century the (neo-)Malthusian feminists had already embraced ideas that he disagreed with like contraception and for some even abortion.

> his particular feature may have been your low-key expectation, but it’s unlikely it was your principal consideration.

That feature was advertised on the in-store endcap display where I bought the google speaker. It was the only reason I bought five of them.

The rest of the story is identical. Ship an infringing product, be forced to retract the feature to mitigate damages and so on.

> Would you be sympathetic to their cause?

I'm not sympathetic to Google or any other company that takes a feature away for customers to mitigate damages in a patent dispute. It really sucks to be a customer when it happens. But I do understand how it happens, and why, ultimately Google had no choice but to remove the feature. I'm also glad they did the right thing because in the case of Google, Sonos could have went after Google's customers, too... and I don't ever want a free patent lawsuit with my $29 speaker.

Add Luxembourg and Switzerland to that list - at least EPFL and ETH. It's so unbelievably better to be at an institute where travelling within Europe is simply not a budgetary problem at all.
Most of the payment for healthcare (in the US) comes from insurance companies and government health coverage. It's no surprise that the providers pay more attention to those agencies than the patients.

If you want to be treated as a customer, you can use one of the concierge services, although paying for that in addition to insurance would make me feel like a sucker, too.
There is some gotcha: they're copied on use, which means you could end up with more than one copy in your binary (unlikely with an optimizing compiler), or, worse, that if you have interior mutability in them it just won't work.
Let's not call the Swiss healthcare "private" or the US Americans will get the wrong impression. Yes it's offered by private companies but here is where the "private" stops - it's mandatory for starters, no free market as the very strict rules they must follow are written in law, primes and services are also controlled by the state... As for the experience, without knowing the Swedish system I can tell that the phone queues we have them too (depending on which provider you got, you might get usable online support), and the family doctor can be an ass just as well.
Or, that autopay allows people to not look at the credit card bill (or directly pay it) psychologically allowing people to ignore it easier and spend more than they’re making?

Which isn’t really an autopay issue, so much as an ‘enabled by autopay’ issue.
Indian Govt. forced the companies to create an e-mandate. At start it was chaos, but I think overall there have been savings.
From the article: https://support.google.com/pay/india/answer/11040246?hl=en

"Due to Reserve Bank of India (RBI) regulations, automatic payments in India will be limited to ₹5,000 INR ($60) per transaction. The e-mandate notification also requires Google to set up an e-mandate for your card. This affects all users, but there are some differences depending on whether you're a new customer or an existing user."

Negative rights versus positive rights, this is an old and well-documented dichotomy.

Positive rights are a fiction to euphemize theft and slavery. From a purely logical standpoint, negative rights can be the only true rights.
Land taxes make sense. But so do the others. Your participation in any market is only possible thanks to the government.
Just come to Norway. As a PhD student you're actually a full time "federal" employee with pension benefits, you're entitled to sick leave, parental leave, etc. You have 5 weeks of paid holidays per year. Your starting salary is $49k per year, which is decent - about the same level as a nurse or a teacher.

To be clear: if you're a woman who move here with your partner for a PhD, and you get pregnant during your PhD, you will be entitled to 9 months of fully paid maternity leave, plus your planned dissertation date will get postponed by 9 months, no questions asked. You can even do this twice if you're "efficient". Kindergarten is quite cheap at around $320 per month. As a man, I had one kid before starting my PhD and the second about halfway through, then I got 10 days leave just after the birth, and 3 months leave from our daughter was 9 to 12 months.

There are several bona fide unions you can join as a PhD student, you have a relatively well functioning HR system that will help quite a bit against toxic PIs. You will have annual "evaluation talks" with a professor other than your supervisor, where you can voice any concerns you might have. The PhD programme duration is 3 years, maybe some people do an additional few months, but I've never heard of someone doing more than 4.

It's still hard work though, there is supposed to be blood, sweat and tears. But it should be because sciencce is hard, not because you are living in poverty or because you have to postpone starting a family until you are in your fourties.

For some reason we get a lot of candidates applying from Europe and Asia, but almost nobody from North America, and I don't see why.
Is anyone really shocked that when you tell the seller the maximum rate you are willing to pay that will be motivated to get that maximum rate when the seller is running the auction?
The trouble with income tax is that every transaction along that path (manufacturing, transportation, employment) is already taxed, as is consumption (sales).
You can't give somebody something unrequested and then demand payment. Otherwise people could send you parcels you haven't ordered and then charge you.

So he is saying he hasn't asked for the government services but is been forced to pay for them. The obvious answer is that by being a member of society you have implicitly agreed to it's rules - you can't pick and choose.

It always irks me when I see these low cost electrolytic capacitors. With operation hours they dry out loose capacitance and typically are the first components to make the bulb worthless.

There are long life, high temp electrolytic cap, but from the picture I can tell these ain't the one and due to competition and fierce price competition won't allow to add in several more cents to make the bulbs last additional 50k/100K/ or more hours. Maybe also not good for reoccurring business. What a waste.

As the child of blue-collar parents, I'd agree that there's a lot of price anxiety in their neck of the woods.

I'd also add that the statistics can be misleading: of the jobs added, many are in food services and front-line healthcare. For the former, the positions don't provide hours and pay poorly. Not a great area to be adding jobs in amidst high inflation and depressed lending.

The US does have many rich people in government, but it's not accurate to suggest that they got rich by being part of the government. Rather, the cost of running electoral campaigns is so high that it selects for people who are already rich from private enterprise (with highly variable degrees of legitimacy). You are putting the cart before the horse, although it is also true that members of Congress are largely exempted from insider trading rules and thus some of them further exploit their position (vs handing their wealth over to a trust administered by some neutral third party).

This is the right way. Never say No but also don't just say Yes. A lot of times B2B customers are just doing a checklist and once they hear that it will cost more, they would drop it. I have been asked for escrow by customers paying $299/mo and I laugh internally first and then tell them "For escrow, you will need to be on our enterprise plan starting at $xx,000 per year with a minimum 3 year contract. let me know if this is something you would be open to". Usually crickets after that.

Call it what makes you warm and fuzzy.

Here's from Leantime's own FAQ (https://leantime.io/pricing/): "We are GPL-2 and require code updates to be submitted back to the core code. We offer Enterprise licenses if you’d like to modify the code to use for company use."

The pattern is effectively always the same. Many companies use this license to offer a free version while offering a "way out" by providing an "enterprise license". They get you hooked because it's open source. But as soon as you want to customize and keep the changes, they want to charge you.

It's a matter of personal choice. I choose NOT to use any Affero licensed software if I can help it.
Physicists realize fractionalization without a magnetic field
Mmmm. So I don't know how many people are old enough to remember the tale of how iTunes, for a short time, completely owned the music market.

Long story short is that they played ball with every demand the recording industry made regarding how selling audio clips would work when other nascent music store experiments wouldn't. Industry gets to dictate quality? Got it. Online store releases after physical releases? Got it. Encrypted? Strongest stuff the government will let us put in.

And then one day... Apple just stopped selling the music encrypted. The recording industry had a bloody fit about it. And Apple's response was "Well, customers hate it. And honestly, who else will you do business with? You gave us all the contracts. What are you gonna do, found your own software companies from scratch to compete with us? If that was on the table you'd have done it already. You don't know how." It took a little while for streaming alternatives to crop up, but it was amazing to watch Apple call an entire industry's bluff.

All this to say... Wouldn't be the first time a content gatekeeping industry's myopia let it become the instrument of its own unmaking. People heavily invested in the old model have some of the hardest challenges fully realizing what new model novel technology can enable.

I predict the Disneys of the world will discover that their memetic monopolies become badly challenged in a world where content creation is so cheap that, while of course they can build their staple of wholly-owned IP for AI generation... So can everyone else, which means the shape of the competitive field will change, close to overnight. And if they try to compete by standing in front of the tide and bidding it to not come in, they'll eventually be cut down by someone who promises to give them everything they want... And then takes their empire from them.
Taxes on goods and services, esp. the VAT; personal income tax on high earners (despite the article's title); social security contributions; and corporate income taxes will be the main ones (not necessarily in that order).

Isn’t this about something different from paying off your credit card debt every month?
I benchmarked it right now by copying a 6.1 GB file with scp from my laptop to the HC4 SSD. It eventually peaked between 77 and 80 MB/s (that's a B for bytes.) I have a 1 Gigabit interface and a 10 Gb/s cable so it reasonably saturated the interface. There were maybe another 10 or 20 MB/s to squeeze from it but I won't complain. It took 1m 13s.
I switched from Reddit to Lemmy and haven't been back more than a handful of times (and will never comment again). Turns out only a fraction of users did the same, so not sure it was an efficient protest.

I'm happy about the quality of discussion in Lemmy, although it would be nice to have more niche communities. On the other hand, the enshittification of Reddit is for sure not over, so I'm happy to have left that timesink earlier rather than later.

Yeah, it means the probability of the evidence given the person is innocent. If they use it for anything else they're using it wrongly and they shouldn't.

I don't agree with them. but to simplify it:

Imagine without asking you someone cleaned your car ,while you were shopping, and then demanded payment.

> Well I would think that the normal thing to do is to hire a chemist to do chemical engineering... isn't that how it works?

No. That's why chemical engineering is a degree. People with chemistry degrees should know the chemistry, but they probably don't know all that much about pipe bursting strength, or disposal of multi-ton quantities of waste products.

I still feel like track/bus groups, VCAs, and now ad-hoc groups are three different ways of doing roughly the same thing. Are there plans to unify them into a single concept, maybe?

(I know that especially VCAs are different here, but in the end, they are groups of groups if you squint hard enough, are they not?)
You don't get the linker complain of multiply defined symbols when your code is linked in as a library to some other project.

If you're writing code that never gets reused, then it's fine, no need for static functions.
So, nothing is wrong with sockets. Sockets (both unix domain and TCP) are the overwhelming choice for IPC mechanisms in new code, have been for the last few decades, and will be when we all retire.

Nonetheless it's not uncommon to have a communication style where (1) messages are extremely simple, with either no metadata or just a single number associated with them, (2) may be sent to any of a large number of receiving processes. And there, signals have a few advantages: you don't need to manage a separate file descriptor per receiver, you don't need to write a full protocol parser, you can test or trigger your API from the command line with e.g. /usr/bin/kill. They're good stuff.

But do be aware of the inherent synchronization problems with traditional handlers. Signals interrupt the target's code and can't block to wait for it (they act like "interrupts" in that sense), so traditional synchronization strategies don't work and there are traps everywhere. If you're writing new signal code you really want to be using signalfd (which, yeah, re-introduces the "one extra file descriptor per receiver" issue).
