The cars are much better than the competition at the price point, the software and updates are far ahead of the slow clunky interfaces that are never updated. Dealers charging $400 to update maps is BS. People gush over them and it spreads word of mouth.

The green aspect makes it popular among moderate liberals, only the immoderate folks stop buying Tesla because of politics. And they're not as numerous as they think they are, because they drown out positive news and opposing opinions in their online circles like on HN.
Lurking how? What dialogs?

The article complained about things which were not configurable or not easily configurable. So did many comments.

Judicious animation has well studied benefits. I do not see how Windows 98's icons were more attention grabbing. Gradient title bars help locate the buttons in my experience.
>I admit, it’s tempting to drop everything and go devote myself like a monk to the pursuit of ancient enlightenment via modern ML. I wonder where we’d start…

I think you'd be shocked how well LLMs translate cuneiform in the CDLI notation. What's hilarious is my first attempt included examples in-context and Claude prefaced the translation by stating that there's nothing in my example translations about "bulls", "horns" or "grabbing" and that it will ignore that translation. I looked it up word-by-word and realized Claude was right. Blew me away. Yet Assyriology subreddits were as excited about my findings as lawyer subreddits are about LLMs. Not sure why, either. Just a bunch of, "So what? Does that mean it's useful?".
This is a simplification. For example niacin (vitamin B3) excesses cause cholesterol to become more atherogenic. And supplementation in patients without deficiency is ultimately harmful.
From the title, I was expecting this to be a map of neural connections, but this is a map of gene expressions in 4.2 million cells from 30 brain regions.
Really? I have had horrible issues on OneDrive if my connection is bad. Including extremely frustrating things like reverting files to older versions and completely deleting all of my local work. Admittedly, that was ~3 years ago before I switched to GDrive.
Same. Things just... don't sync. Not after a minute, not after an hour. But then 2 days later the files pop up.

And then on Tuesday it all works instantaneously and perfectly.

But then Wednesday it stops entirely again.

It honestly baffles me, what possible architecture choice could explain its erratic behavior.

And it baffles me just as much that they've never fixed it.

Whereas Dropbox and Google Drive for Desktop have always worked great.
Huh, that's surprising. I've never actually checked but always considered that they'd give the same result. Somewhat cumbersome, if one considers how few people know of this functionality though.
I believe if you read my argument, you would see that I explicitly name entering an exclusivity contract as the anticompetitive behavior.
We need to mine for the limited amount of gold so we can be wealthy, have higher purchasing power over other people and to get our hands on limited resources... wait, what problem are we trying to solve again? Isn't the problem with limited food, shelter and basic necessities?
It’s so much easier to clarify doubts and concerns over the phone for me. I guess most of it stems from my intense dislike of typing out whole paragraphs on the phone screen.
This has been beaten to death in high quality randomized controlled trials in sepsis. Don’t believe a university press release lol. HN is a pretty poor source of health information overall.
I started programming I'm bash a few months ago, and also found it enjoyable. But the part I found enjoyable wasn't just programming in bash. The part I loved was making scripts to automate all kinds of stuff and make my life easier—automate updating my yum repo, automate building my Docker images, make some install scripts for whatever I need when I distrohop, and little scripts to backing up and restoring my dotfiles.

If another language/shell, like zsh or fish was the preinstalled default, I'd program in that instead, but because of its basically-universal install base, I program in bash.
> It goes back at least to the early 1800s and builds from there.

I read the Wikipedia article you cited, and I can’t find anything in it about conflict between Jews and Muslims in the early 1800s. The vast majority of the conflict of that nature it describes is 20th century; it mentions a few things happening in the second half of the 19th century, but I’m struggling to find anything in it about that in the early 19th century
Why do you insist on throwing the red herring “monopoly?” You don’t have to be a monopoly to be anti-competitive. Again, Microsoft was not a “monopoly” in the 90s when they were trust busted.
I don't think 'good for Microsoft' is quite right, but your sentiment is true. If a business can spend $x to save $2x, they will. Regardless if that savings is due to tax dodging, wage theft, or switching from AWS to self-hosted. It's an amoral decision.

Expecting business to 'not be greedy' is crazy. They maximize profit, period.

Microsoft isn't at fault here, our government and the systems it creates/enforces are. Don't hate the player, hate the game.
> Isn't context hyper important? Such as weather, political climate etc

(tongue firmly in cheek) Here is a bastardization of a memory of some video interview with a quantitative analyst, from over a decade ago:

You are wrong on the UUIDs, Variant 2 is what Microsoft did and got standardized after the fact.

Content aside, this is by far the best news website I’ve seen, particularly on mobile. Clean design, no ads, none of those large text excerpts that break the flow of the article, and no popups. The website is so beautiful and snappy.

I want to incentivize news outlets making more websites like this, so I just donated.
Yet Amazon Retail still don't use DynamoDb for the critical workloads. They still rely on an internal version of DynamoDb (Sable) which is optimized for Retail workload.
> If that's what you want, you're already treading a very non-standard path.

Rust makes it quite easy to forgo a large portion of the standard library. rustc and cargo are separate tools, if you don't want cargo's features, you can use rustc as normal.

These paths may not be popular but that doesn't mean they aren't well supported, and depending on your niche, may not even be that unpopular. embedded on things that are small enough you're not running embedded Linux, for example, rarely use the standard library.
Eric von Hippel at MIT has written a bunch of business-oriented research along these lines (related to "user innovation").

There's plenty of precedent where police officers pretend to be an underage person and some shmuck replies to them and agrees to meet at a hotel. Then they get arrested, and much of the time they also get prosecuted and convicted. You could argue it's entrapment but the fact is that most of society supports that sort of preemptive law enforcement.

If you looked at it through a purely ethical framework then you could never convict the person because there was never any "real victim." But is that the right way to look at it? It's certainly not the way most people look at it.

At a previous job we installed a pair of SD-WAN appliances that supposedly had high availability built in. Except there weren’t enough Ethernet ports on the appliance, so both the WAN connections had to go through a single switch. Of course we referred to it as the “Jesus switch”.
It's remarkable how many opportunities for error there are in this process. Even sighted cooking isn't easy the first time. Has to be a good analogy for something.
So your point is: scientific consensus isn't 100%? Ok. So what?
That's odd, MathJax does not render the math as images (unless you configure the output format to be SVG, but even that is not the default). Do you have a memory of (or can retrace) how you ended up with that unusual configuration?

(MathJax's output formats, namely HTML+CSS, SVG, MathML — see https://mathjax.github.io/MathJax-demos-web or https://docs.mathjax.org/en/latest/output/ — are strictly a superset of KaTeX's output formats, namely HTML+CSS and MathML: https://katex.org/docs/options.html )
I tried accessing it yesterday and assumed it got slashdotted (or similar). Turns out, the site blocks VPNs! My heart aches.

I laughed too, but if you've seen some of the latest SDXL models on Civitai, hands and fingers have been fixed. Some of the recent generated images are pretty realistic.
> LLMs are just generating text.

I really can't stand these low-effort takes. It's like saying "Human brains are just meat". You can summarize anything badly, but it's not helpful to the conversation.

Whatever quibbles you have aside, LLMs are generating useful text, today. At some point you're just pointlessly privileging meat over silicon.
I have, but looking at their website doesn't get me closer to an answer to my question.

They describe themselves as "Enabling developers, enterprises, and organizations to collaboratively build, share, and enhance blockchain frameworks and tools."

So Hyperledger sounds like a framework/platform for building blockchains?

So I'm wondering what blockchains have been built with it, and made it past the prototype stage to be in use in the real world?
You can design the system so the client doesn't have a list of hashes either, eg with a Bloom filter or other probabilistic system you can change.
No it didn't.

Just like everything, it seemed like a good idea to some people, and a bad idea to others.

The notion that "it seemed like the right idea at the time" ignores all of the people in government who thought it was a terrible idea.

Oftentimes it's very much historical accident who happens to be making the final decision and who they happen to be listening to.

> Don't hate the player, hate the game.

...the players have a hand in ruling the game. Corporations and businesspeople lobby government bodies and politicians as a matter of course. You can't separate the one from the other. If you hate the game, and you want to change it, you're going to have to have beef with the players, too, because they will act to prevent that from happening.
The left area was used for information like file size, disk usage, and image preview. There have been better implementations. But Windows 98 could suit either preference.

Windows 98's icons look very similar to Windows 95's. Windows 2000's look better and more consistent to me.

This is a modern invention. Corporate charters post Renaissance did not solely focus on making money for shareholders. Go take a look at the history of the Dutch East India Company for example.
This is where I think meal delivery services would be really great. Especially if they are packaged for people with limited site.
This is the only reasonable comment in the entire thread. Make CP possession a matter of strict liability and all problems are solved.
It is an implication, not equivalence.

Not paying means you are the product, but paying does not mean you are not the product.

A great many papers in my field contain contextual details about the settings the studies were conducted in that would effectively deblind them.

That sort of betrays the idea of a pre-print, in my opinion, because they should not depend on "Someday we'll come back and fix this".

> As far as I know, there are only two hashing algorithms used: ContentID and "the Facebook one", whose name I don't remember offhand at the moment.

Yes, those aren't suited for client-side scanning. If the server side can do any content scanning then you're not secure against them, so the protection isn't what kind of hashing they use, it's just that someone actually looks at the results.

> You can't keep something like that secret.

I didn't say it was secret, I said you don't have access to it. Well… that's kind of the same thing I guess, but anyway the important point is they can change it/reseed it.

> None of this "texts the police", but it does alert service providers who may delete files, lock accounts, or flag people for further surveillance and heightened suspicion.

Google has done this one looking for "novel CSAM" aka anyone's nudes, which is bad, so I recommend not doing that.

> Those clearinghouses usually aren't the police, but they're close.

No, it's extremely important that they're not the police (or other government organization); in the US NCMEC exists because, as they're a private organization, you get Fourth Amendment protections if you do get reported to them. But these systems don't automatically report to them either. Someone at the service looks at it first.

HN seems like the ideal place for this question to me.

Your assumption that I'm not hoping for good-faith answers is incorrect and unfair.
>”since weight is a chronic condition, when treatment stops, weight returns.”

The truth of this statement.

People often don’t think about obesity as a chronic disease, but I think it is.
I have an X1 Nano too, because I want to run Linux and it is less hassle than Asahi Linux (currently, I wouldn't be surprised if that changes).

Agree on the portability, it's great, but Lenovo still only offer 16GB RAM, the CPU is a low power Intel one, which are improving but 10nm (X1 Nano Gen 3?) vs 5nm means the M2 has a huge advantage... One good point is you can replace the SSD though.

Dare I say it, you're comparing apples to oranges here.

It doesn't make assumptions at all. You assume I haven't been around criminals in my lifetime. You also assume criminals aren't intelligent, and that my opinion is an assumption. I'm sorry to burst your bubble but criminals are opportunists and they are intelligent and if they are given an opportunity to assess security they certainly will. My opinion isn't an assumption it's from experience.
During 1968 through 1972 I lived a block and a half from Stewart Brand's Whole Earth Truck store, across the street from Kepler's Bookstore, and around the corner from the Mid Peninsula Free University. There hasn't been a time like that since, and I didn't know what I had until it was gone.

I’ve been told in earnest that the earth is flat but people of Jewish decent are hiding that fact from me. Including only the successes on your list is misleading.
And not everything goes back to the crusades some like this goes back farther still see the Roman siege of Jerusalem in 70 ad. Or you could look back farther still to the Babylonian conquest and captivity. History is deep that way trying to trace back to first causes is an exersise in futility. If the religions of both sides are to believed on this it goes back to an inheritance despute over the blessing of their mutual patriarch about 3500 years or so ago in a episode of religious history that reads more like bronze age episode of the Maury Povitch show.
That's the funny part. It is spread around 'US East'. If anything catastrophic (or mundane) knocks out power/internet in that region it won't matter how many backups you have. It will bring down large parts of the internet.

As an exclusively obesity medicine doctor with more than 13 years of working entirely with patients on weight loss and behavior change and a very public profile, I had comments and questions about this study filling my inbox. Understandably, people were discouraged.

So this seems like a very reasonable article overall with a reasonable purpose, granted I just kind of skimmed it.

I've lost multiple dress sizes and kept it off. It can be done.

TLDR: I did it by improving my nutrition rather than counting calories.
Steam is overwhelmingly popular with users and publishers alike and so it's enjoying default status with both, but that's the fairest play in capitalism. There's little lock-in (non-transferable licenses and network effects are all I can think of) and I haven't heard of any anticompetitive behavior.

There are many other outlets for distribution, including the plain Jane internet, on all the platforms it's available for. Notably, this includes SteamOS devices like the Steam Deck, something no other console officially offers, as far as I'm aware.

Valve is remarkably fair.
Depending on who you ask, RP-1 costs between 20 and 80 times what diesel goes for. Others have tortured this analogy enough, but you certainly don't want to fuel your non-rocket startup with funding that costs far too much, which is conceptually adjacent to the point of the original article.
Great share. Long read.

A few people including myself knew. Eventually entropy would settle and once the initial hype was over, it was only a matter of time before the chat would finish the game. Saying that "nobody knew" seems like historical revisionism.

Please do. Haven’t thought about this book in decades. Wow.
How extensible is this to other database engines?
Yeah this is a super common point of confusion. You need to worry about slowing down a brute force attacker when you're trying to protect a low-entropy secret, which basically always means user passwords. But when your secrets are big enough, like 128 bits, brute force becomes impossible just by virtue of the size of the search space. So for most cryptographic applications, it's the size of your key (and the fact that your hash or cipher doesn't _leak_ the key) that's protecting you from brute force, not the amount of time a single attempt takes.
NFTs.

It's not a terribly interesting answer, but you've asked your question in an uninterested way.

Since there are a lot of good and bad, intrinsic and extrinsic reasons tech does and does not get adopted, I think a better question might be: "Without any BS or deceptive rationalization, what's something that blockchain really would be better at?"
> I'm unwilling to believe in the infinite goodwill of Amazon and the police.

Really the only thing to deter it would be the fruit of the poisonous tree metaphor. A bad cop probably wouldn't know what that is, but the prosecutor would. Fortunately it would come out in court and be public record.
