> They guarantee the right to /access/ education. This is not at all the same as guaranteeing that all children "must be educated at a state approved school."

That's oversimplifying. You're right about the "at a state approved school", but the right is to access education to a set standard that will equip them for life.

You can't just say "well, they have access to -my- education, so we're good". There should be caveats around quality and deliverability of education.

Because if you (the generic 'you', not singling you out individually) have low/zero value educational material, and no desire to provide it for your children, then that is /not/ them accessing education in any meaninful sense of the concept.
"who have professional instructors by day"

what school age child has access to that? Maybe in the most selective and well funded private schools there's professional instructors put public school? No way.
I am currently restoring an MBP using Configurator and a thunderbolt cable. You definitely can use one, perhaps your TB cable is buggered ?
Seconding the request to elaborate. There may be good and valid arguments against homeschooling but increase of inequality sounds.. weird.
Yeah Netrunner was a fun card game, and not really P2W but B2P. You'd buy the set (or expansion) and you and your buddy could play, doing blue vs red and vice versa. The game was fun but also you had to buy it once and that was it. No RNG with regards to packs of cards, new expansions obsoleting your already owned cards, etc. If you want a fun B2P fun card game (with rogue-like elements, which you may appreciate given your comment of Nethack ;), I can recommend Slay The Spire.
Ken, not mentioned in the article but I wondered about the history of this design. Some distant memory that it may have been a dec design or dec-involved? Obviously there were TTL-based Ethernet implementations in the 70s (Metcalf famous self-wire-wrapped prototype[1] being the first). Perhaps this chip was a VLSI re-do of one of those designs?

Absolute gold :)
Is it that surprising considering the company went from 0 to 400 people in 12 years? Most of these people will have been onboarded towards the tail end of this and won't have been there that long. The few that were there in the early days are likely in cushy jobs riding a rocket ship that has yet to have a period of pointing back to earth. Neither is particularly surprising.
The point I'm making is that lack of data to the downsides of remote does not exonerate remote working from being less productive than in person.

Just like lack of data for the harmful effects of smoking in the 1940s should not have allowed people to blindly say "There's no proof it's bad for me, therefore it's not bad for me."
There's XTDB which is still Clojure-centric but is at least open-source. It supports SQL queries.

Ignoring the education/socialization arguments, I'm surprised to see that no one has mentioned the ostensibly reduced risk of your homeschooled child becoming the victim of a school shooting.

Go on and tell me how statistically the risk is negligible. It makes me feel a bit anxious whenever someone I love is doing _anything_ with a tail risk of instant death that society has somehow normalized, even just driving. I'm not a parent but I imagine that kind of thing could really affect some parents' peace of mind.
Worth remembering that these bots are uniquely badly positioned to talk about their own abilities, because their training data by definition existed before they were created.

One example of this: GPT-4 can talk at length about GPT-3 but doesn't know anything about itself.
Yeah, I'm not talking a $5 million indie film, I'm talking about your $50K indie film. $2K/wk for camera rental is just totally out of the question.
People say this every time. It's no more locked down than it was 10 years ago.
I have no idea what you are talking about. I already pay via my tax dollars $25k on average per student. I’m suggesting reducing that spend, for those that want it for non-special needs kids, and giving the reduced amount to parents to spend on any school they want - or staying in their public school they already have.

The problem is the local public school where everyone in my neighborhood is forced to go (unless they are rich) is dangerous and ranked bottom 5%. That is extremely racist, inequitable, and unfair to people who are forced to attend.
The signal has been almost completely lost on Ukraine. I see literally nothing but Russian propaganda at this point.
Unless you aren’t doing anything important on your Mac that’s always good advice.
For real. It's telling that the kids don't jump in here to defend the practice, hardly ever (also homeschooled, education was great, socialization was absolutely problematic despite doing all the homeschool group things.)
Are the weights for the 70B version of the model available?
I am not familiar with regulation in this space, but why should a domain registrar care about a URL shortener that has a pointer to another malicious domain? They can ban the destination malicious domain obviously, but censoring an URL shortener feels like asking a DNS service to not to resolve a website, which is commonly criticized on HN.
I'll think twice the next time I feel the need to wave out of politeness in future.
It's worse than that. He probably could have pled guilty and cut a deal for 10 years of prison time or so. Maybe less, if he cooperated with prosecutors in getting some of the money back. But denying everything, going to trial, trying to evade all responsibility although he was in charge, and blaming everybody else does not go over well with juries.

> Nobody is going to give these machines access to the nuclear launch codes, air traffic control network, or power grid.

That won't be necessary. Someone will give them internet access, a large bank account, and everything that's ever been written about computer network exploitation, military strategy, etc.

> And if they "get out", we'll have monitoring to detect it, contain them, then shut them down.

Not if some of that monitoring consists of exploitable software and fallible human operators.

I like that they are not forcing the word "terrorism". As much as Oct. 7 actions are despicable, "terrorism" is now just a loaded political term that no one cares to define. Are the Israeli settlers terrorists? The Russian army? Wagner?

It just distracts attention from the facts.
I briefly played around with the options here and didn’t see any specific questions that triggered an incorrect response from GPT-4, which I’m sure exists. It would be interesting to have that available and revisit this post when a future version of GPT comes out to attempt and try asking the same question again.

Got any ideas?

The intolerant seem to have quite a bit of free time on their hands and spend it recruiting others online using speech to do so. Communities who encounter the intolerant find themselves largely unable to change their minds. Rather than getting effectively DOSed, they find it easier to accomplish the same ends via censorship.

Is it possible to discourse the intolerant out of that state? If so, is it time-effective to do so?
old Amazon - Their customer service in 2000s and early 2010s was just unbelievable.

Once $800 lens was stuck in shipping going back and forth between various UPS hubs. I called Amazon, they saw tracking info and overnighted me a replacement lens. When the original lens finally got delivered, I called Amazon to return it, they initially told me to keep the lens for my troubles.

I didn't believe it, so I reminded the CS that it was $800 lens, if she was sure. She doublechecked and issued me return label. (I know)

Anytime, I had any issue with Kindle, no matter how small, they would send me a new Kindle even if it was out of warranty.

Many times when I tried to return an item, they simply told me to keep the item and issued me refund. (Though they still do it but not as much).
> If they can't get money from their creations they'll spend less time creating and more time engaging in activity that generates returns.

On the other hand, artists who adapt AI into their workflows will have vastly improved productivity, so the amount of time they need to create new works can also be much smaller for the same amount of output.

There will still be some artists who can avoid using AI and make a living, but like all skilled industries that have already been disrupted by automation, the market for that kind of work will become smaller and more exclusive, and that’s probably OK. Live musicians were the only way to get music on the radio, or in the cinema, or at a party, until audio recordings decimated the industry[0]. You can still buy hand-made furniture, or clothing, or cars, but most people today get them from a factory.

I do think there are serious issues with large players attempting to corner the market and extract all the wealth for themselves, but this is an old problem[1], and I think on balance these lawsuits perpetuate, rather than attempt to solve, the root problem: a missing social safety net and no guarantee that people will not have to scramble to survive every time a disruptive technology emerges.

I thought the point was that people tried to frame the twitter files as evidence that the government compelled these companies to apply those labels, but actually the twitter files weren't evidence of that (the compelling, especially—asking, usually with a reference to site policy violations, and sometimes having the request granted, sure).
Enabling custom "god" react hooks that don't trigger unexpected re-renders
I was working on an app that had a ton of app logic within a single custom react hook. The hook's return value was passed to a context provider, which was a re-render nightmare. The code was hard to optimize without breaking the logic up into many smaller contexts. Rather than doing that, I wrote this library instead so that the hook's return values were accessible in "re-render safe" ways. It's a WIP, so feedback is welcome :)

Holy crap, this is the most helpful answer I've ever seen from a Firefox developer on HN. When I was having a memory exhaustion issue, I was just told "enable the page file, running without overcommit is a recipe for disaster" (looks at my 40GB of memory). I should figure out if that issue still occurs.
New computers don't behave like old computers, and it's not worth trying to guess why that might be. Could be anything running in the background, old NAND, old battery, low disk space, satellite internet…

The main issue with that possibility is many brokerages (at least ones in my area) do not allow a Seller's Agent to reduce their commission without prior Broker authorization. Regardless of what the Seller themselves wants. So while that deal may be advantageous for the Seller (sell quickly) and the Agent (get the deal over with and move on to the next), the Broker is the one getting paid a lower sum and will not allow that contract to be ratified.
Yes. This is misplaced nostalgia. I am biased though - I simply cannot stand the sound of chalk grating against a blackboard.

No, it's more: "if you homeschool, you, and we are free to not even have to worry about this as an issue, versus us trying with varying degrees of success to lock it out of your kids school".

The two can be entirely compatible.
The SolarWinds case ups the stakes for CISOs everywhere. Are you secure? Yeah? Would you bet your life on it?

How about a "dissenting opinion" envelope where a CISO lodges his most critical objections to the company's most egregious security sins? This can be discoverable as evidence if there is ever an incident. This clearly establishes that the CISO performed his function and warned of the risk but was overruled by the CEO or the Board. "Yeah? We can't afford MFA? No problem. I'm just going to note my dissenting opinion just in case this comes back to bite us."
Those are mostly the same thing. You save power by being faster so that you can go idle faster.

Of course, there's a difference between going faster by using more resources and by just taking less time.

The logic Board failed in my 2020 M1 Air as well. Opened the lid one day, and it wouldn't power on. I have AppleCare on it, otherwise it would have been a $500 repair.

About two weeks ago I'm sitting in a hotel room with the air on bed with the lid open. I grab it by the screen to slide it closer to me and the screen shatters from the light pressure of my finger.

There are instances of both these things happening to the Air all over the internet. At first I really liked the M1 Air, but it has now proven too unreliable for me.
This is good advice. Part of the difficulty is that you don't really want to write your configuration in C++ or Rust and have to recompile your whole program to change something... but it is nice to be able to use a "real" language, otherwise eventually you'll have to resort to a real language anyway to generate your configuration.

The issue is - which language?

Ideally you want something embeddable, sandboxed, with good tool support, static types/hints and "normal" (not aggressively functional, 0 based indices etc.).

The only language that remotely ticks those boxes is Starlark. That's probably what I would use in future if I had this issue.

I've looked into many other options (Jsonnet, Dhall, Cue, Python, Deno, Lua, Rhai, etc.) but they all fall down in some way.

Nothing in my comment is about changing the percentage of the commission. (The 1.25% or 1.5% is simply the listing agent's personal split of a 5% or 6% total commission [whichever is customary in the local area]).
Your children's future classmates wish you wouldn't keep your children from enriching their shared classroom. You might be just the kind of parent that the school needs to maintain a critical mass of involved parents.

Just to comment on this, given you mention a year: the game is from 90s and out of print. It is by the same person as Magic: The Gathering:

> Netrunner is an out-of-print collectible card game (CCG) designed by Richard Garfield, the creator of Magic: The Gathering. It was published by Wizards of the Coast and introduced in April 1996.

CCG is a bit of a weird mention, as there isn't the typical RNG involved with buying the cards (like w/MtG) since you buy the entire set or expansion in once.

The game also has a spiritual successor: 'Android: Netrunner' [1]

Less that the material was fabricated (not true to my understanding), more that the material didn't say what readers think it said. Certain signatories like Matt Taibbi [1] misunderstood or deliberately misinterpreted the Twitter Files and believe that the US government is more involved in social media companies' moderation than in reality.

More importantly, the Westminster Declaration wants social media companies to host speech that the companies might not want on the platform.

> We call on tech corporations to undertake to protect the digital public square as defined in Article 19 of the UDHR and refrain from politically motivated censorship, the censorship of dissenting voices, and censorship of political opinion.

Suppose for the sake of example that moderation on Twitter has been politically motivated [2]. Then according to the Westminster Declaration, Twitter shouldn't ban conservative opinions, nor liberal opinions, nor anti-semitic opinions, nor support of the January 6th resurrection, even if some of the posts expressing those opinions might happen to break Twitter's current terms of service.

But what does it matter that a moderation decision was motivated by something or other, so long as the government isn't pressuring (not the same as merely suggesting) the company to make the decision? Users who aren't welcome on one social media platform for their opinions can join another social media platform, such as a Mastodon instance. Having freedom of speech doesn't require that a few platforms host all opinions, but that anyone who wants a social media platform to host certain opinions can join or make one without fear that the country's governments would restrict/punish such a platform.

>Apple ships probably more devices than anyone, and given that the patent pool is huge as mentioned odds are overwhelmingly that it costs them money to support HEVC / HEIC, not the reverse. That theory also is dubious.

This is a nit that doesn't negate your main point: Apple may ship more complete devices than anyone, but Qualcomm makes up significantly more of the SoC manufacturer market share[1] at 29% vs Apple's 19%

My point was that their original comment about the article made was basically "I knew this person would be critical of blue coded luxury beliefs without being critical of red coded luxury beliefs!" without really arguing about the concept of luxury beliefs, or the examples being criticized.

It was shoot the messenger type stuff.

I recall when the Dixie Chicks criticized Dubya's invasion of Iraq.

The analogy here, to me, would be instead of arguing about whether Iraq invasion was a good idea, you said "aha! I knew the Dixie Chicks wouldn't have anything to say about Whitewater!" (or some similarly team blue scandal of similar vintage).

I hate tribalism, and I actually hate to see it even more on the side I vote with because it puts me in the position of being asked to defend things that I don't think make sense.
We don't really have buyer's agents in New Zealand (the idea exists but used extremely rarely in my experience).

I'm rather suspicious of the US system that creates a place for two agents getting 3% each for little gain (and a lot of scope for collusion against the buyer and/or seller!)

The New Zealand system has its flaws. The major problem is that vendor real estate agents are financially incentivised to turn over sales as quickly as possible and so smart agents do not represent their vendors properly. I've seen lots of house sales where an offer is made and the agent recommends the seller take it. An early sale costs the agent much less time and they make way more money per year. New Zealanders are generally too trusting, so we get screwed over by people that take advantage of that.
