You don't need to track your carbon if the carbon tax is already integrated into the electricity price. From the article:

> By 2026, those companies will have to publicly disclose how much carbon is produced by their operations and electricity use.

Basically this puts a reporting burden on everyone instead of the place where the carbon is sourced - probably an oil or gas company.
The corresponding problem for ad-supported media isn't that the media won't criticize the government, it's that the media won't criticize the interests of the advertiser, e.g. by opposing pharma subsidies. But the viewer can see who the outlet's advertisers are and impute their bias, because they can see the ads.
Yeah I agree the landing page should contain a clearer input-output example for new users. I’m just lazy :).

Well most people see LinkedIn as a central place to store resumes.

Being everyone’s free storage unit does not generally make money.

So they have to turn the resume storage part into a loss leader and turn a profit some other way. Being a place to list job postings is the most obvious but they have competition already.

Throwing on ads will make money but LinkedIn isn’t a site most people stick around on. Turning LinkedIn into a social media site keeps people on the site so the ads work, but it’s a pretty ugly way to do it. The type of people who are actually going to use LinkedIn like Facebook is probably the worst kind of people you want sticking around too.

LinkedIn could have stayed a small site with a small team but they got started by getting money from investors. Now they have other people to answer too.
The title made me think this was an approach that used memory editing techniques (e.g. ROME [1]) to allow an LLM's neural memory (not just its context) to change over the course of conversation.

off-topic rant begin —>

We have to come out of our nerd bubble and look at ordinary people(yes they are the majority) who are muscle trained to use a handful of fixed things. Both old and new generation will subconsciously open a google search page, or look into FB/TikTok/Instagram. Back in days when I had my first internet, Yahoo! was the default, now the whole internet to majority is just Google/TikTok/FB/Instagram.

If your wife/mother/brother/uncle is a non-tech-savvy person, try changing their default search engine, I will bet a big one that they’ll panic and come back complaining about it.

Google being default won a decades of subconscious training for ordinary folks about their interface and slowly boiled the frog by increasing ad density. People are used to it and expect it.

401ks are like ~10% of the stock market: https://theirrelevantinvestor.com/2020/10/25/who-owns-the-st...

Boomer 401ks are probably <5% of the stock market, and they aren't going to 0 overnight.

The idea that boomer 401k withdrawals is going to crash the stock market or tamp out future growth is pretty strange.

Defined benefit & defined contribution pension plans are both larger chunks of the stock market than 401ks.

And all of those together are a smaller chunk than foreigner holdings.

One last thing that is a little bit sadder, so I thought I'd post in a separate thread.

I grew to really like the engineer that invited me to the project. He was a well known expert in the field with a wiki page, books, academic eminence and everything, and he offered to mentor me etc.

I travelled with him a few times from FB's London office to the prototyping site and he was always very generous with hotels, travel etc.

Eventually someone pulled me aside and mentioned that he had "alterior motives" and had repeated the same pattern with previous young men. I was honestly so saddened and betrayed, and afterwards couldn't believe I had been so nieve as to be made to feel special by him.
I do not understand the mindset that leads someone to be envious of checkmarks, of all things. Nobody thought that a checkmark made you notable. It just signaled that person is who they said they were.

There's this swath of people who want to be Notable and just aren't, and they think that painting a checkmark on themselves will fix it.
I don't understand the reason for leaving Twitter? Just seems really petty... it's just a social media channel among many.

>Housing / land valuation is wildly off from the needs of the people. For more than literally my entire life there has been a chronic shortage of housing

If there is a housing shortage then the unaffordability is reflective of proper valuation.

If people need more housing than they are getting, a free market would indicate valuations to go higher. I would suspect that you’d like to see housing revalued lower, though

Absolute footage is the wrong metric of the average per household is also larger. You want to look at the number of units. One thing that can happen is a single family home split into multiple units
I came to the same conclusion from another place: the nth time seeing news about some block finding it cheaper to live in a cruise ship than in a retirement home anywhere in the US. This is only possible if all land value is inherently overinflated beyond measure that a floating coal burning ship all expenses paid is cheaper than a retirement home that should have 5x less overhead.

1) Having the checkmark gave them access to public figures (DMs were usually open between checkmark people and closed to the public).

2) Using embeds in their articles let them launder copyright via twitter randos to let them avoid paying royalties to license images and videos from the original sources.
The US contains also huge mcmansion-style houses that are actually only classified to hold a single family. I think if you speculated more for the average person, housing is less and less available to them all the time... Although the above poster attributes it to a lack of housing, the actual cause of housing shortage is likely far more complicated. The crash in real estate in 2008 froze construction for over a decade arguably, and also, real estate is considered a commodity/investment as opposed to something like a car. So people plan their financial futures assuming their assets will go up in value, ignoring that this means their assets will by necessity price out their own economic band.

It's not though. You can grab a group of friends, buy some land and start a commune. It is perfectly compatible with local-level socialism. Nobody forces anyone to be a consumer. Now of course you have to work... but choosing not work and expecting food and shelter, is literally making others work for you (and in the case of welfare using the government to force others to pay for you).

Kind of entertaining, in hindsight, to the read the reasoning of the Compton & Russell paper [0] cited in Payne-Gaposchkin's thesis [1] as the explanation of the "spurious" hydrogen abundance:

What I've figured out works wonderfully for me is to turn on an agri-commodities podcast where the most exciting news is something like the US soybean production unexpectedly falling 30% over the past 6 months.

Note ofcourse that for this to work, you need to be, like me, nowhere remotely interested in grain yields or commodity trading or work in related fields. I don't live in the US either. Nor do I have any business there. To put things in perspective, after listening to the podcast I had to Google why the world would possibly need so much soy sauce and only then discovered what a vital role soybean plays in the world economy.

I haven't found anything as soporific as listening to detailed stats on bushels of corn and tonnage of wheat presented by people who are earnestly interested in this. Played at 50% volume.
According to the first 10 sources I see for a "define passenger" Google search, the pilot is not a passenger. One of those sources is even for legal purposes.

There's a pedestrian crossing in my city on a street with a decent amount of traffic that somewhat recently got reprogrammed to almost instantly stop cars when the pedestrian sensor is activated, and it doesn't have an internal cooldown timer. This ends up in situations where you're the tenth waiting for pedestrians at the crosswalk and you end up rolling three car spaces forward before the light turns red again because another pedestrian activated the sensor.

Interesting, but there is no information about the license of the code nor of the dataset.
Depends on your definition, the smart ones made a killing (literally and probably figuratively) convincing people this stuff is safe. These people will never receive any consequences for their actions, aside from the ones we all collectively face.
When I read these stories, all I really hear is that these companies have lost all ability to innovate and invent. They've spent a fortune on these people, carefully choosing and then tuning them to be experts in the business and now they can't think of anything for them to do? They should be embarrassed.
I sure wonder what they expected to happen when they changed the license. They were aiming to destroy the businesses of competing services that had grown up around their open source project. Were they imagining that the people running those companies would just sadly close up shop and the customers would eagerly jump to HashiCorp's bosom?

The reality was that those companies exist because there's a gap in their offerings and plenty of demand for alternatives. Once that dynamic exists it's going to try to protect itself too.

My point is this was all so far predictable. I would love to know what they thought would happen instead.
> Bigger banks are simply betting that people will not go through the trouble of moving their money.

This applies even at smaller banks that don't make savings account their primary product.

Like, my credit union offers 0.1 - 0.9% savings accounts depending on your balance. With a $250,000 balance, you qualify for some Premier savings account with 4.8%.

I said screw it. I created an account somewhere else that gives over 5%. Yeah, it means my money might take a couple days for me to get if it I absolutely need it, but I can't imagine a scenario where that would be a problem that my credit card can't take care of.
That is a nice trick. I've had my main email address in .config/git/config, added an override in ./.git/config for projects that need it, and checked who I am from time to time with

[alias]
whoami = "!f() { echo $(git config --get user.name)' <'$(git config --get user.email)'>'; }; f"

but I might switch to your less error-prone approach.
This is a legitimate concern because this has actually nothing to do with Apple itself. Any app updating in the background can be impacted by this.

Unfortunately, this is due to API limitations.
> This article only has two paragraphs about NPR.

Wow, I thought I had clicked through to the wrong article because there are so many paragraphs that are seemingly unrelated to the headline. Also, Cory seems to have fudged the facts a bit, since NPR's move didn't have "no effect" as he claimed. It had a "negligible" impact, according to NiemanReports. [1]

Is this nitpicking? Yes. But when you choose a headline that misrepresents the facts (even those you present in your article, many paragraphs down), then it's appropriate.

NiemanReports' article also has some enlightening data regarding the magnitude of the impact.

> A memo circulated to NPR staff says traffic has dropped by only a single percentage point as a result of leaving Twitter, now officially renamed X, though traffic from the platform was small already and accounted for just under two percent of traffic before the posting stopped

So if less than 2% of the total traffic came from Twitter previously, and the total traffic has since dropped by 1%, that means that by removing their account they lost more than half of their Twitter-sourced traffic.

For a publisher like NPR, which had minimal Twitter-sourced traffic in the first place, that isn't too big a deal. But it means that other publishers shouldn't hastily delete their Twitter accounts, thinking that their traffic won't drop materially. If NPR's experience is representative, a publisher should expect to lose just over half of their Twitter-sourced traffic if they delete their account.

The one that most others moves to. Until then, being a pioneer in terms of moving early to a new professional networking platform with little people on it just seems pointless.
Yep. Thankfully that is the case with ARM macs, and there is a dedicated community of hackers who are figuring everything out.

Though I hear in ARM servers there might now be a standard for booting, but I haven't looked into it. Makes sense since servers, can run a variety of OS's depending on the work, I would hope such a standardization makes its way to consumer devices, but I'm not holding my breath based on how things are going.
What did they disagree about?
