I agree it's probably against UK law, but why use harsh counter-terrorism laws to deal with a speech matter? The Met (not the same police force) was just a few months ago found to have abused the exceptional powers in question.

https://apnews.com/article/uk-police-should-not-have-stopped...

> Jonathan Hall, the independent reviewer of terrorism legislation, said officers should not have used Schedule 7 of the Terrorism Act 2000, which gives them exceptional powers to root out terrorists, to determine if Moret had been involved in the turbulent pension reform demonstrations that had roiled France for months.

> “The problem with exercising counterterrorism powers to investigate whether an individual is a peaceful protestor or a violent protestor is that it is using a sledge-hammer to crack a nut,” Hall said.

Using the same powers (admittedly less harshly) regarding a post on twitter.com is similarly "using a sledge-hammer to crack a nut" -- there isn't even the question of violence in this case.
I covered that too. “The problem is what is popular.”
I hate this argument and thinking.

animation today does not all look the same. There’s wider creativity now than ever before. There’s a larger volume of lower quality stuff because it’s cheaper, but art is not defined the median work.

Classics are classics because in an era of limited information sharing a much smaller population of works gained recognition and staying power. It’s cool to see that themes are durable. It’s cool and sobering to watch Citizen Kane today and see the frustratingly obvious parallels. But that’s really more of a novelty. If citizen Kane came out today you’d perhaps just roll your eyes at the direct associations to your present day parallels that are now “too obvious”.

What was the precipitate? In high school chemistry, one is the labs involved ammonia and fairly concentrated HCl at the same time. The teacher carefully protected or removed every item he cared about in the entire room first.

Fortunately, NH4Cl is not especially dangerous, although I can’t imagine that inhaling it is a great idea.
In my experience, claude.ai outperforms OpenAI's ChatGPT in several key areas. Notably, claude.ai excels in long-tail document reading and recall, demonstrating superior comprehension and information retrieval. Additionally, claude.ai offers enhanced contextual understanding, allowing it to provide more relevant and precise responses.

However, while Claude.ai certainly showcases its strengths in specific areas, it doesn't quite measure up to OpenAI's ChatGPT in terms of adaptability and precision. ChatGPT stands out for its capability to understand intricate queries and produce nuanced, tailored responses.

Both platforms have distinct strengths; I firmly believe they'll evolve to dominate different niches in the AI ecosystem.
According to the hacker news guidelines, I'm not sure that's a valid reason. Hacker news specifically blocks news about politics:

> What not to submit: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, or celebrities, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon.

https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

So an article about the actual state of the war is inappropriate for hacker news and would likely get removed.

This article is about journalistic standards in news reporting and citation management, using one recent article as a case study. It doesn't directly debate that number; it debates journalistic practices in news reporting.

I can understand why the focus on a seemingly small detail like this can be frustrating when there's so much more going on though. And I think you believe that this might influence people on the larger conflict. But I don't think that's cause for flagging according to the guidelines. And personally I think this article is more likely to have an impact on pushing for better journalistic standards (as evidenced by the majority of comments), which should be a win for everyone, but unfortunately that message is now suppressed since folks have flagged it.

Regardless, thank you for taking the time to respond; I imagine there's fear of folks dog piling on a person when they flag a post, so I appreciate you responding despite that!
Is there something i am supposed to be looking at here? Seems like a pretty minor bugfix release.
That was my first impression, but having worked on the forefront in this area a decade ago, I expect that it's real. The technology exists, and it's now been around long enough to become generally available.

It _was_ mostly burning. And yes, it was wildly inefficient, but there weren't that many Native Americans overall.

As a result, most of the woods in Oregon are new growth. Natives did not allow large tree growth, periodically clearing them.
How do you even put together an open evaluation benchmark without it being slurped up into the training set the minute someone puts it on Github?

Maybe it needs to be obfuscated, or all the questions should be obscene so they don't pass the content filtering.
The goal is to infuriate.
Spotify/Steam/Netflix only exist in the form they do because piracy is such a compelling alternative.
I have feeling whole Docker (or application containers) took of when "non Linux people" (read: developers) tried to be sys admins too and failed.

Best thing after sliced bread is apps/software packed in single GO binary. Runs everywhere, you only need to rsync/scp it to million of other places and it "acts" (usually) as normal Linux program/daemon
The bigger alternative is the status quo: A big button saying "I am at least 18 years old" and some web-filtering technologies that parent could use but probably don't. Nobody's dying over this, so I'd be wary of arguments along the lines of "we have do do something anyway".

You'll find many varieties of boards with different SoCs being sold mentioning the D1 Mini in their model number or product description, as it initially defined the form-factor being referred to.
Similar to the ESP-12F, which you can also get with ESP32 SoCs, if you want, even though the ESP-12F originally is an ESP8266 board.
You are right, Hamas cannot be excised as we see in Afganistan.

Only way for Gazans will be to assimilate to israeli/western values I guess (if they want to have a proper life)
> You can even use untargeted ads as an alternative.

Why wouldn't those ads be blocked? And they cannot take countermeasures if they were held as illegal in this case. Not sure how that's an alternative.

>That's another hypothesis. The EU could just rule that it's legal to copy content provided for free and then legally "steal" it from other platforms?

Won't that kill EU content creators more than other ones, because non-English EU based content is mostly created and consumed within the EU.

"Spirit of the GPL" not really, and the terms you quoted already make it incompatible with the GPL itself. Pretty draconian if you ask me (Github???).
An average user just needs a web browser these days, but if you do any serious creative work, art/design/music/video etc, you’ve probably got to choose between Windows and Mac

>Seems like a pretty minor bugfix release

It is. PHP 8.1 enters security support phase in about a month, so it's likely the final release of active support era.

I run a multi-version PHP + Nginx server for a CMS project I'm involved with, which involves obtaining & compiling from source on a regular basis. This is just another scheduled (every 4 weeks) patch release.
That’s not how heat exchangers work.
Quite.

A recent letter from the Home Secretary to the Police states the following:

> As you know, Hamas is a proscribed terrorist organisation in the UK in its entirety. It is therefore a criminal offence for a person in the UK to:

> …

> * invite support for Hamas

> * express support for Hamas whilst being reckless as to whether the expression will encourage support of it

> …

Assuming this is an accurate representation of the law, it seems we don’t need to invoke conspiracy and persecution theories to understand why the police want to speak to him.

If you're running an OS that doesnt support docker you have a very esoteric use case.
Let's not overstate things here. It may well look like "docker pull", deploy, nothing, ok, how do I configure this thing, oh goodie here's the uncommented yaml, deploy again, strange error, headscratch, oh it's dependent on using the .68.x network which I've already used elsewhere, let's rename those docker networks, deploy again, what?, oh it must have initialized a temporary password to the database when it didn't come up, let's wipe it all clean and pull again because I have no idea what kind of state is in those persistent volumes, deploy, rats! forgot the network renumbering, wipe clean, confiure again, deploy again, yay!

Provided you already turned off everything that can interfere with this stuff, including IPv6, any security like SELinux, grsecurity and friends, and you let it administer your netfilter firewall for you. Don't forget to check if you accidentally exposed some redis instance to the public Internet.

(And yes, I have embraced the concept and work daily with similar things, albeit in a larger scale. Let's just not kid ourselves it's easier than it is though. Just because an out of the box deploy goes sideways doesn't mean you are dumb.)
It seems the canned deployment is the entire value-add here. It’s existing components that you can already deploy yourself if you prefer.

I much prefer this over the old method of canned deployment where you ran a script and prayed it didn’t hose the host too badly.

Rental services are usually privately-owned for-profit businesses, whereas this is a community initiative, and probably has lower overheads.
That’s true but IMHO that’s an indictment if Linux not them. It’s 2023 and there is no reason system administration should be this hard unless you are doing very unusual things.

The Go approach is just static linking. Rust often does the same though it’s not always the default like in Go, and you can do the same with C and C++ for all but libc with a bit of makefile hacking.

Statically linking the world is the alternative approach to containers.
Great TFA but I partially disagree with this:

> A healthy, nutritious diet is much more expensive than a calorie sufficient one. As a result, three billion people cannot afford a healthy diet.

Is that so? My wife is the kind to obsess on healthy eating and always tells me it's cheaper to cook healthy than to cook unhealthy stuff. She's the kind that forces me to eat soup as dinner and that's it. It's not expensive to buy a few vegetables and to make soup.

(we buy, weekly, stuff from a local farmer btw and it's not exensive at all and he's happy to see people not buying everything from the supermarket)

Eggs aren't expensive: I find eggs super yummy.

Lentils, canned tuna (I love that: I just love that, not too sure if it's healthy or not but it's cheap), advocados (ok, they may be a bit pricey), corn, there are fishes that are cheap...

It's easy to go to a drive-in and buy junk. But they're not handing that junk for free at drive-ins. People who buy that could buy vegetables instead. Sure, there may not be same amount of calories and fat and whatnots but seen the average overweight person, I'd argue that that's... A good thing?

I mean, put it this way: it may be expensive to buy healthy food and yet end up as fat and unhealthy as when buying ultra high fat, ultra high calories, junk food... But maybe, just maybe, you don't need to be that fat and unhealthy?

My eight years old kid has been conditioned by my wife to only health healthy stuff: she sees a Mc Donald sign and pretends to throw up.

I understand that people can't be bothered to buy healthy stuff and don't have the will to eat reasonable amount of food and can't be bothered to make soup but I don't buy the whole "fat people are fat because they're poor".

They're fat and unhealthy because they are eating junk.

There's a spectrum between "Supersize me" and "three-star restaurant selling $$$ sushis".

Not sure how this happened, really sorry that this happened to you. Please reach out again, we've gotten through all of our backlog.
What is wrong with everyone today (yesterday)?

Does nobody hear know what an air/heat exchanger does? They’re for ventilating modern sealed construction so you don’t choke to death on fumes from your belongings, or get cancer from your wood shop.
Shouldn't ec2 kernel panic be handled on the ec2-level instead? It's not like they're running hardware nodes, after all. And surely kernel panics on k8 nodes shouldn't really be a thing? Are they loading custom kernel modules at random times in there?
That's really cool to hear. We used to make use of the toy library in Bristol when we lived there, it was a great way to get toys the kids could play with for 2 weeks then return them when they got bored :)
> The cities are crowded

Yup, all people feel the effect of this

> People are less tolerant to noisy children

My tolerance was tested today when a Mum and her princess took up 3 seats at a cafe today and let the daughter watch YouTube videos loudly on her iPad without any headphones.

I still don't understand why parents take their kids to boring cafes and restaurants. Kids want to do noisy things and run around. I didn't go to cafes until I was about 12. Prior to that weekends would be spent be walking the dogs, going to parks, forests, picnics etc
Enums for a Data Scientist
I live near this and looked into it a year or two ago. They didn't really have anything difficult to get (e.g. I don't need to borrow a drill or hand saw) but it looks like they've expanded quite a bit since then!
That’s exactly what I’m taking about. Downvoters seem to not know these have existed for thirty years.
No, the right way is to use unsafe primitives that have been tested, audited or even formally proven (like the ones in std).

Sometimes such a primitive doesn't exist and you should use unsafe yourself, but then you're the one supposed to make sure that your code is in fact sound. If you keep unsafe for small portions of the code you can reason about and extensively test so Miri gives you a good level of confidence, then it's fine to use unsafe. But it's the more expensive option, not the default.
I see, that totally makes sense, but in that case it doesn't seem like you need a fancy AI for this, or at least it feels way overkill for what you actually want here.
This is a valuable thing to point out. Garlic is toxic to dogs, but a lot of dog treats have garlic and it's not hurting them. In large amounts, it is toxic. But it is stinky even in small amounts, and that's what dogs love about garlic.

Dosage matters.
My personal biggest peeve is how Docker still doesn't play well with a VPN running on the host. It's incredibly annoying and an issue I frequently run into on my home setup.

It's crazy to me that people push it so much given this issue, aren't VPNs even more common in corporate settings, especially with remote work nowadays?

I find it easier to just spin up a full VM than deal with docker's sensitivities, and it feels a bit ridiculous to run a VM and then setup docker within it instead of just having appropriate VM images.
Not only am I willing to say I saw these, but back in the day I used to run a slew of adult related sites, similar to ogrish, stileproject, steakandcheese, etc and one of them was a site that actually cataloged and provided easy access to all these shock images and websites.
Unless we're talking about source code of course.

What? That’s an even worse analogy.

> One sentiment that’s different from when I was a teen till now is that the youth today is so afraid of nameless authorities. No one wants to do anything even slightly controversial, lest their peers drag them for it.

I'm an adult with couple decades behind me, and I am afraid of "nameless authorities" - between the law enforcement ready to chase you for real or imagined violations, full-time victims and their allies waiting to Richelieu you out of your job and all the way to international infame, and FAANG with their Hydra-like reach - worming themselves into your life, and then sending it into a downward spiral with an automated, unappealable account ban - I'm often very conscious of what I do online, lest one of such authorities decides to take offense.

I wonder how much it costs to maintain a system to collect fares compared the small portion of funding most transit systems would lose from going fare free.
Because you don’t get paid for arguing with customers. Neither the physical time nor the stress.

If you don’t deal with it all day you may have no idea/empathy for the sorts of coping mechanisms people develop to reduce trauma. People can be the worst. They pay you for copper and expect gold.

Also as I stated above, until the customer has invested a certain amount of energy into the process, they will second guess themselves and you. Reviews are often tainted by how the customer feels about themselves. Ultimately the same problem the Duck is solving. They need to pee on it to mark it as theirs.
Um, yes, the entire point of that section of the article was to talk about the increase of risk of death by cancer.
No, I think they were imagining kernel drivers but distributed separately and interacting with the kernel through a stable ABI.
> As to outlawing the return to the private sector, that makes it career suicide to touch a government job. I don't see how that will bring high quality candidates to these posts.

This is an easier problem to solve than the one we started with: people not incentivized to do their jobs as regulators (and often they do the opposite, just creating a moat for the companies they regulate.) I don't think successfully leading a regulatory body is career suicide even if they can't go take a payout in industry afterwards, but even so there are lots of ways to balance out that disincentive to work in government that doesn't involve undermining the whole effort at regulation (as the status quo revolving door does.)
While eating healthy can indeed be cheap, I think systemically there are other costs like having the free time and free energy (which both might be depleted after a long day of hard work), other issues like the need to have some sort of transit to a grocer with fresh goods. For many parts of the United States, there's only Dollar General within accessible distance, and many people cannot afford to own or rent cars, and public transportation likely don't exist in their area. I think it's unlikely that prominent statistics of lower income being correlated with lower quality diets can be explained just by "poor people are lazy"

the idea that a byte was 8 bits and not some dynamic length bitstream took at least 20 years, so don't get too excited.

So many ideas from Lisp have slowly become mainstream (lambdas, closures, GC, interpreters with dynamic typing, languages both interpreted and compiled...) that I feel like any convergence is far off.
I just don’t think it has anything to do with cars. I think the movie Mystic River did far more to stop people letting their kids travel around unsupervised.

If anything, all sorts of traffic deaths are much lower than they were when I was a kid.

It’s not cars parents fear, it’s crime
I can do everything that I want to do on my MacBook that I could do on my previous Linux laptop. I use the CLI a lot, and I can run any local servers that I want. I can program in any language and install or compile everything I need on it.

Also, when it’s broken, I can take it into a store and it’s fixed in hours. I’m a parent and old so I value my time more than anything. Linux doesn’t allow me to do what I want while also being stupid easy to fix, which would be fine for young me, but not today.

You value something else other than your time, so you prefer Linux because whatever you value isn’t available in Apple products. It’s not hard to understand: people like different things.

Pretty much the solution to better browsing that I've been thinking of for some time and of course never managed to even start about implementing it (or believing I could or should): have one browser / hidden level get all web pages complete with all the bad stuff (or at least the required cookies and advertising) left in, then give the user a sanitized view of that. Note you could do things like rendering obnoxious play-on-load videos as subdued stills that still allow the user to click on to view if they feel inclined; also should be possible to somehow cut the ads out of YT videos with some more work, and YT wouldn't know (the way it should be).
