> That's just your point of view, a point of view which results in helicopter parenting

> They don't use reddit/etc so they aren't pumped full of hyperbolic propaganda about how dangerous walking in America is, and consequently, they're able to enjoy it just fine

Here's some of the data and context that informs my opinion.

I'm used to walking about 30-35Km a week in suburban Toronto. Close calls with cars happen on a weekly basis. I wear hi-viz clothing, look both ways, all that jazz.

You know who doesn't look both ways? Cars making right turns. Pedestrian safety statistics published every year in my area very much support this viewpoint [0].

As for the risk involved, if again you look at actual statistics you will find that pedestrian deaths have been increasing sharply in North America with the advent of ever larger vehicles like lifted pickup trucks and SUV [1]. This is happening in spite of far fewer people choosing to walk these days [2].

As for the volume of car traffic, it's worse than ever in my area [3].

So, with actual data at hand, it does look like walking is rather more dangerous than it used to be. You can look up cycling statistics if you feel like. Hint: they are much worse.

Why not just mix sunscreen ingredients in soap? Then you would be providing some minimal protection all the time. It’s not super effective but you can make claims that it protects against the sun.
Internet routers at large are not doing connection tracking.

If a device is dropping the ball on connection tracking, it's almost certainly in your own network.

Your ISP may have carrier-grade NAT. The content provider network probably has stateful load balancers. Those devices need to keep state, but they would need to do so with QUIC and UDP quasi-connections too.
The article poses it as a question, but the answer is evident - it's a culture problem. Not 'South Korean' culture, but specifically the culture of relationships they've allowed to develop between parents and teachers.

A good education comes from a collaboration between parents and teachers. Parents are ultimately responsible for their child's education, and teachers serve as helpers pursuing that. A teacher's authority is delegated from the parent.

The parents mentioned in this article appear to wish to train their children to treat them, their teachers, and others with harassment and disrespect. If a teacher or school system isn't willing to help them in that endeavor, then they are pursing different goals - it's not a relationship that can work. One of the parties in that relationship can and should leave to go do something else.

I was quite surprised when I learned that ZFS-native encryption is so underdeveloped, and that the developers still sometimes seem to forget about it when coding new features. I had presumed it would be table stakes for enterprise storage by now. Is it just the case that everyone uses it on GELI or LUKS, or am I wrong to presume that encryption is as widespread in enterprise deployments as I thought?

It's a shame, because the main draw of the native encryption to me is being able to have a zero-trust backup target with all the advantages of zfs send over user-level backup software. But I've heard of several people running into issues doing this (though luckily no actual data loss that I've heard, just headaches)

Yeah, that sounds about right to me.

The admin has a a LOT of features.

More importantly, it's been continuously evolving for nearly 20 years at this point.

Anyone who's actually tried to do a from-scratch rewrite of a system that has 20 years of development behind it will know that 5 engineers for a year is probably optimistic!
Ahh this is the closest one to what we originally meant haha..(founder here). but the intent was to mitigate the impact of “kurtosis” on your system by enabling engineers to see how the whole environment worked in testing (and other parts of the development process). We also have a love for taleb’s books about excelling in uncertainty, in high “Kurtosis” environments, so going with the theme made sense for us.

But I see from the comments it is decently confusing!
This is something that works remarkably well with GPT-4V. Take a picture of plants, flowers, foods, and ask if anything in this photo is toxic to dogs.

What you’re asking for isn’t possible since the development of non-gps & ai based navigation. Any system capable of launching physical strikes will be taken out by counterbattery fire almost immediately, and with the hardening against EW the drones have received you essentially can’t really do much without the equivalent of an EMP, which would likely cause you more damage than the enemy.

Long haul trains in the U.S. are awful.

If you’re riding it it’s for an experience. Not as a practical realistic alternative to traveling instead of flying.

So yeah, people who believe train infrastructure should be high quality enough that they’re a real alternative to flying for the right distances will not be keen on traveling on the terrible sight seeing focused (I’m being generous here) long haul trains in the U.S.

That's messed up. I have generally preferred Samsung products,too.

> we think Simmons has opened up a completely new front in the never-ending war against plagiarists that look to profit off of the work of others

We’ve been doing stuff like this since the early 00s, this isn’t new stuff.
but what about the many years after? the sobering up? bottom up consequences?

i'm part Ukranian. Raised in Germany. My family's social circle is huge. Almost none of the Ukrainians left Ukraine.

And almost none of those live in the east. Some fled to the country side but are already back in what the German media portrait as war zones.

my elders gave up. They say that if the higher classes don't care, nothing can be done.

and their German friends believe the news instead of calls between brothers and sisters who've been talking almost weekly for the last 30 years.

the same with the Russian side. And only few hardliners support the war. their logic is shared by a majority of the Ukrainians.

and i can't make up my freaking mind.

did they sell out their country?
many Ukrainians say people votes for Selensky because they knew he would bring the war. Amd when I checked the data, Selensky got only 30 something % of Ukrainians on his side, which is standard given how many people don't vote at all.

then you check the news and studies and humanitarian reports dating back into the nineties and you think you realize what the hell is going on but the media turn everything 100 degrees and the voices that advocated for the truth suddenly switch sides. WHAT.

and it seems even worse with Israel-Palestine.

i don't know how to deal with how well-doing people like hackers and engineers and scientists deal with how the media and politicians treat the truth.

Thank you for your comment. Indeed, you are right not every company has terabytes of data to train their model. I like your example "Another company needs to detect loose screw heads in engine blocks”.

I actually got the idea for Datasaurus because of a similar problem. My brother wanted to check if sheets of metal were bent and needed to be rejected in a production line setting. However, he did not have any data and could maybe annotate a couple of images manually but not create a full dataset. We tested the fine-tuning approach and he was able to have good results in a couple of minutes.

That’s why I think this could be quite valuable and I decided to package it into an open-source application.

> Are you going to stop buying from ecommerce sites

E-commerce is the online sector with the highest incentives to deliver an ad-free and user-friendly experience, because they actually want to sell products. If you're selling something you should do everything possible to get out of the user's way and let them make a purchase. This includes having your site load and operate extremely fast, not using cookies and not using advertising. This also includes having the highest quality content on your page, so that users find what they're looking for and to build enough trust that they want to do business with you.

As for YouTube there's premium and for e-mail the ad-free and spy-free options are legion.

If we exclude the online content that is free and without ads, the online content that we can pay for and the online content that we can pirate, that's already a huge chunk of what is valuable on the internet. So I don't think the ad-fueled internet has the upper hand here.
1) YES https://noyb.eu/en/where-did-all-reject-buttons-come

2) Consent vs legitimate interest is not for data but for data processing purposes. A company, say Paypal, may have a legitimate interest to process (and, therefore, collect) your IP address in fraud detection systems. If you don't give consent, fraud prevention dept cannot share your IP address with the marketing dept (and would have to erase it once it's no longer used by the fraud detection system). Which is why you get pestered with more consent requests than needed. Consent also has to be freely given: https://edpb.europa.eu/news/national-news/2019/facial-recogn... + https://noyb.eu/en/pay-or-okay-tech-news-site-heisede-illega...

3) Ads are not personal data (data that came from you and/or data related to you, not necessarily PII). GDPR is only about careful handling of all personal data. It does not prevent a company from showing you ads. But GDPR does prevent tracking to show targeted ads: https://noyb.eu/en/norway-temporary-ban-behavioral-ads-faceb...

Tiny detail, but very interesting to me:

> In the past, Ahn said, “If I could not give my personal phone number to them, sometimes some parents would come to the parking lot and watch and see and take a note of my phone number from my car, then they would text message me.” It is customary for Koreans to display their phone number in the bottom corner of their windscreen.

I'm amazed this can work without everyone being bombarded by spam calls etc.
We need a law, and that"s coming from a libertarian.

If the owner of a hardware device is using it, that person has total control over the device. Nothing can be blocked. Nothing can be hidden. All data must be available in plain language. That owner/user should have the right to inspect and modify everything in the device in plain language.

With today's memory / storage capacities and with today's LLMs, that should be easily implemented by starting over and reprogramming everything.

Maybe I should fork a few FOSS products and build this in.

One decisionmaker within the country can still see what others have done, and act as-if-one.

The evidence for sunburn inducing skin cancer is strong. The evidence for sun exposure is far more mixed, especially with regard to melanoma.

That said, there probably is no such thing as “safe unprotected sun exposure” in Oz summer, at least if you’re not very dark-skinned. Very fair-skinned people can develop the beginnings of burn in a literal matter of minutes.
I once figured out how to identify when my story was being leaked via word of mouth. The method i used was to give a different story to each person, but i was shown a better method which was to change one detail in the story. This is so that the person who leaked can be tracked back to the source.

The reason i mention this is because the developer could use a similar method. rather than being so blatant about exposing the theft, the most damaging method is to introduce a random chance of seeing goatse, say one in 10. That way the thieves will not detect the sabotage, and cannot insulate themselves from the consequences.

Being built into the framework is a big deal, though.

The problem with third-party libraries for this kind of thing is that there's no guarantee that they will be maintained in lockstep with the underlying framework.

What if they get abandoned? Or a new version of the framework comes out with new features but the third-party library takes months to add support for them?

I think this may be an aspect of Django that isn't appreciated nearly as much as it should be: batteries included means that the feature you depend on are guaranteed to be maintained and documented at the same pace as the rest of the framework.
> Government data shows 100 public school teachers killed themselves from January 2018 to June 2023

I think this kind of data analysis would be impossible in the U.S. and Canada, unless done by a government agency. I've never heard of a publicly available database[1] of cause of death in North American, let alone correlated with things like occupation, age, etc.

[1] Note that I'm talking about current data, not 100 year old historical data.
This debate just feels like a useless distraction from what the people on the ground of sustainable farming are saying. We should be talking about how we can get high yield without destroying the ecosystem.
> where this concept does not really exist.

This concept absolutely exists. First time I witnessed it was in Denmark and Sweden with plenty of stories from locals that were beaten or threatened by local gangs for simply entering their "area" and the police did nothing. Then there are stories I heard from Paris, and Berlin.

However, overall, all areas except maybe small towns and villages pose sufficient risk for children.

Edit: I dont think it’s because of “refugees” as someone else wrote, I think it’s a policing issue.
That would make sense if Google didn't have its own AI offering and research that is supposed to be first rate and a strategic priority of the company.

Of course Google would prefer Anthropic to beat (or at least be competitive with) OpenAI, but only if they can't do it themselves.

Has Google management lost confidence in its own AI capability? Or are there so many leading AI researchers that refuse to work for Google?

To me this looks like Google could be in big trouble.
What I find especially weird is that even if there is a hardware level feature, why would that become available to a non-MacOS operating system?

yes, dead bodies and the horrors of war should be restricted to safe, emotionally bland, fictional contexts; so that we can teach our children that if they stay inside and behave that nothing bad will ever happen to them.

Bad shit happens in this world. if you don't think you can protect your kids from it forever, you might want to think about teaching them how to protect themselves.

"You're going to see pretty bodies and ugly bodies. Sometimes even broken and misformed bodies. The people in those bodies are a lot like you, usually, even when they look quite different."
