"High" is a relative measure.

"Output" is vague and not an agreed upon ultimate goal. Slave colonies have lots of "output".

"Everything becomes more expensive" is vague and unsupported enough to be noise.

"Immigrants create prosperity" is dime store propaganda and noise. It isn't necessarily true nor false. Your presentation of it is negatively persuasive, howerever.

Your statement about "people who want to participate should have the right even if it hurts others" is simply a zero borders argument to permanently bottom out most wages. It isn't a pro technology argument. Couching its opposition as an anti-tech argument is bizarre mental gymnastics that isn't cogent.

"People are scared of change" is a generalized a bullying tactic meant to insult people in case none of your other arguments hit the mark.

Your argument that labor "competition" can't be limited by borders, lest society becomes uncompetitive and catastrophic, isn't born out by the evidence in any productive nation to include Germany. It's also a statement that is embarassed by your thesaurus abuse of alarmist adjectives. Which in turn belie any confidence that your arguments are persuasive.

The difference with your vape pen analogy was that that basketball player intentionally brought an illegal substance into the country thinking they could not be held responsible for it. This senator did an accidental thing that was reported to the authorities as soon as it was prudent to do so.

If your basketball player, of who we all know we're talking about, accidentally carried it into the border of Russia and then surrendered it to customs saying I brought this illegal substance accidentally I would be on the same side of showing a leniency to encourage this kind of voluntary surrender of contraband.

As would any reasonable person because getting people to voluntarily follow the rules is much better than doing it through force of terror which encourage this in them to hide the fact they are doing it such as your basketball player example did.

Please don't paste ChatGPT or BARD answers as HN comments in general? In this specific case, no, LLMs don't reliably know about themselves. They're trained on a big corpus of internet text, then trained by rough reinforcement learning to say and not say certain things about themselves, then given a little more information about themselves in system prompts.

This 'focus on problems' attitude is interesting to me given that the founders of companies like Facebook, Apple and Amazon never set out to solve specific problems, but rather found cool new applications for maturing technologies.

I think an equally valid approach is to start building something that you think should exist in the world, and bypass the "solution in search of a problem" issue by making sure your product has plenty of contact with reality. E.g. if no one is interested in an early version of the product, then you're probably going down the wrong path.

I do think that it would be technically possible to, eventually, abuse this system. The problem is, these "guarantees" create a misunderstood sense of security. They want you to believe this is "more" secure. But "more secure" than what? Competing cloud platforms, maybe.

What if someone had access to 1Password's "vaults". They would only need to phish the user for two pieces of data; the 1Password password and the account key. Then, without ever having hacked your network, they gain all your passwords.

So anyone with a back door into 1Password gets a trove of accounts that they can phish.

As somebody who worked as an accountant, I saw several times where automated reconciliation solutions devastated books with repeat mistakes and lacking audit logs. I saw interns do the same, too.

An automated solution to reconcile statements based on LLM matches removes transparency on how your books are prepared and might create a false sense of trust in the preparation of your books. In case of an audit, people will be in great trouble when their answer is ‘yeah, the AI booked everything.’

I think there is an opportunity here, but I don’t see it ending well until we can put the accountability of your accounts in check.

Exactly. People like to demonise the poor immigrants that would like to work and welcome the rich ones with open arms but the life has become so hard in cities especially due to the rich ones who don't add anything to the society because they don't even live there and even if they live, don't engage with the local population. They swoop in, claim the resources and actively extract them(for example by keeping the apartment empty).

Switzerland no longer accepts some DB (German Rail) trains crossing the border, they are forced to terminate early, and passengers have to change trains. Reason: DB delays are so frequent that if they did not do this the Swiss rail network would also collapse.

Title is false. He was selected for additional screening and he doesn't have any proof that it was because of his name. Also he wasn't stopped from boarding the flight, he was just screened more exhaustively than others.

> Greed happened.

I don't see any evidence that Apple's product managers are directly influenced by quarterly returns and AAPL share price fluctuations. If we were talking about Apple's financial behavior (such as their stock buyback program, or the killing of an entire product line), then perhaps. But I strongly doubt Apple's product managers were motivated by what you call "greed" when they made the choices that led to today's iWork suite.

Perhaps it was something more like building the product that most of their customers wanted. Maybe market research told them they'd have better success letting Microsoft build the productivity suite for people at work, and instead build a product that people would use at home (even/especially people who don't use Office or any productivity suite at work). These are both credible possibilities that don't involve "greed".

I'm very curious to know what really happened.

"Firmed renewables" are cheaper than or equal in cost to new nuclear today [1]. Renewables and storage are on an exponential cost reduction and learning curve, while nuclear famously has gotten more expensive with each generation [2]. Given that nuclear is uncompetitive against against renewables today, adding a 15-20 year lead-time just makes it laughable. Then another 30-40 years to turn a profit.

Nuclear is a technological dead-end economically. Perfect for niche applications like submarines, but not for the grid.

It usually isn't possible to "properly" design a UI from the start. When it happens it's more luck than skill. Especially with vertical market software where proper UI design requires deep domain expertise that no designer has.

The better approach is to put out something crappy as fast as possible and then ask real users for feedback. Iterate on this every 2 weeks until it's good enough.
> On the one hand, yes, at this point "that's not true Agile" is starting to sound like a no true Scotsman fallacy.

Always has been. There's nothing wrong with the manifesto as some food for thought. But the moment people started calling their development process "agile" we were all fucked. It became a brand.

The core con of agile is that there is something under the covers as long as we push beyond doing it wrong.

There is no there there.

The manifesto says: Along all the dimensions that exist in software development, here are four dimensions where the common practice in 2001 are wrong. Any other meaning is invented while interpreting scripture.
This is something I fundamentally don't understand; it seems that American jurisprudence optimizes for "ignorance" and "deniability", rather than prudence and responsibility.

Seems the rich and powerful get given carte blanche to lie and ignore any predictable consequences of their decisions. There is no duty to know what is going on, worse, there is a presumption that it is better to not even know.
And I would add, the world is more peaceful and loving and moral under Christian morals (the morals we all currently share) than under the ethics of the Roman Empire. Christians ended the slave trade for specifically, uniquely Christian reasons. It was a religious issue. Modern progressives grew out of the Protestant culture of puritan founders. It’s why we embraced immigration.

It’s one thing to be ignorant of the creator (and deny creations miraculous nature), but to be ignorant of world history; please read about Rome.
Is selection for additional screening normally refered to as being “stopped from boarding”?
For what it's worth, from my understanding, you've got a lot of room before that even hits what's considered a "normal" recreational dose -- which I think is around 3.5g of dried psilocybin. Broadly speaking, if you don't have a history of bipolar / schizophrenia, it sounds like you'd be pretty safe from lasting consequences. Separately, "bad trips" mostly seem to happen when you go towards higher than normal doses, as you lose conscious control of your thoughts...

A meta-analysis of SSRIs isn't very useful, since it draws conclusions about a group of drugs that do not have similar behaviors within an individual.

It's a bit like doing a meta analysis of hydrocarbons in two and four stroke engines. Some will work better than others in some situations, but the meta analysis itself isn't illuminating when you are putting liquid propane into a gunked up carburetor.
Devices -> Pi-Hole -> Unbound (running on Pi). My phone is connected to Pi-Hole via Wireguard, so it gets to take advantage of the ad-blocking as well.

Yes, I would recommend it. Running Unbound means you don't have to trust anyone's upstream DNS servers. Disadvantage is maybe slightly slower resolution, as you don't get to take advantage of the upstream server's caching.

My team uses this pattern and generally speaking it looks something like this

* everybody is good at breaking down code into changes small enough review quickly but not small enough to become tedious and trivial

* people work on CRs whenever they have time. They do generally not post them after people have started going offline, and wait til next morning as a courtesy, since there is no difference between publishing for review at 5pm vs 9am the next day

One side effect of this workflow is that because the pieces are more manageable, less uninterrupted “flow” time is required to complete a bunch of small things than to make one really big change. And others digest the smaller changes easier and knowledge spreads more effectively. And with the time its easy to say “don’t make people review outside working hours.”
This is synonymous with the end of the world.
The title seems to contradict the content. Halfway through the article it's made clear that he was still able to travel as planned. Being pulled aside for an additional security check and then allowed to board is not "stopped from boarding flight".

What's odd is the article contradicts itself on who exactly was aggressively questioning/profiling him. At one point they are described as "Air Canada officials" and another "by immigration control."

And foreign countries do commonly have immigration officials/security services questioning passengers boarding aircraft to their respective countries. For example I've had extra screening by US officials when boarding an aircraft to the US in London (not claiming to the same degree or for the same reason as what occurred in the article).

3k... I don't know what the manufacturing cost is. Add profit to it.

If it would cost 30 dollars, I'd buy many of them, hang them on walls, take them down every few months or years to change the picture. If it cost 300 maybe I'd buy one of them. At 3k, zero. Of course I'm not the target at that price point.

Contrary to the parent comment and what you will read here: Not very. This won't change for a long time. Syrians from 2015 earn a lot less than the median and more than 70% rely on welfare that pays out more than they earn [1]. Up to 90% of Ukranians rely on welfare [2], costing the German Government half a billion dollars in in welfare checks alone. Marrocans are three times as likely to rely on welfare / to be jobless than Germans [3]. There are three times as many jobless people with a history of migration than Germans [4].

This is not a political agenda. These are just facts.

> ...with multiple decades of massive experience...

You're assuming that the people with this experience have a) successfully passed it on, and / or that, b) they're still coding.

We don't have an apprenticeship model in software development that would lend itself to such a thing. Each new crop of developers has to relearn the lessons in whatever new stack they happen to encounter the issues. It would be like each new generation of carpenters having to relearn their trade because the wood had entirely different characteristics every time someone went to use it.

That experience you mention applies to the general cases, but again, the people that have it may not be the ones doing the work hands-on any more.
