Tiny suggestion: s/children/people. It's true that it's usually used to refer to children, but that's just because autism is most identifiable in early childhood. Autism (or Asperger's syndrome) is not something you can 'grow out of' or 'cure', because it's a difference in basic cognitive functions.
Where are the off-the-shelf Halloween-theme Angry Birds-style sprites?

Where are the ones that look different from the ones 50 other game makers used?

I don't know, and now I don't need to care.

It doesn't sound like you negotiated well and is a sign you could use an agent :)

But seriously, imagine you and I are both bidding $1,000,000 on a house. You have an agent, so if your bid is accepted, your agent and the sellers agent each get $30,000.

I don't have an agent. In my offer, I write "the sellers agent gets the usual 3%, and I am allocating the 3% that the buyer's agent would get towards the seller instead." That means for the seller's agent there's no difference whether I use an agent or not, but to the seller themselves, my offer looks $30,000 better than yours because I am sweetening the deal using that $ I'd otherwise give my realtor.

All that said, I used a realtor on my house purchase despite being financially savvy and a good negotiator because they actually helped us find the right house, and they were well worth the fee.
Society does care about that, hence why the public school standards are all public, school boards are elected, and there's broad democratic oversight.
Have you listened to artists and creatives talk about copyright recently? Especially ones that publish on newer, digital distribution platforms like YouTube? There's numerous more thorough critiques of copyright law and calls to abolish it from across the political spectrum.

You're mischaracterizing me by suggesting that it's "economic suicide", as I said in my original comment in this thread:

> But we shouldn't be responding to that by clinging harder to schemes that have outlived their usefulness, we should be developing new models for funding production.

Sure it would be disruptive if we snapped our fingers and said "no more IP starting tomorrow", there should be a gradual phasing out of these unfair protections and effort put into sustainable pro-creative models.
Awesome Go Frameworks, Libraries and Software
Just to leave it here, here's John Oliver's take on it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lzsZP9o7SlI
You are not too far off.

Wages are up far more than 10%. 10% is real wage growth - adjusted for inflation.

Median weakly earnings in 1990 was $412. Now it's $1,118 - 270% increase (most of that being inflation).

Inequality is at the highest point it's ever been in the US (and globally) - even surpassing the Belle Epoch before the French Revolution.

That being said, it doesn't mean there's anywhere better to sell your time for money than in the US.
The data is already adjusted for inflation as indicated in the y-axis label, "Expenditure in constant 2020-21 U.S. dollars".
You believe in a false god you call "the state" and "society". These things don't exist, only people exist.

Public schools are operated with the purpose of breaking the spirit of the children of the underclass so that they become obedient workers or soldiers. That's why the education part is so lacking and the obedience training so focused. Children are schooled in having no liberty of time, no liberty of movement and no liberty of thought. Perfect for a soldier or industrial or corporate worker.

On the contrary a successful adult is characterized by having liberty of her time, liberty of her movement and liberty of her thought.

The purpose of state schools is to create failed human beings, because they are needed to serve the rulers.

Schools are specifically made to break communities by separating children by age, leaving their main influence to be a few teachers, instead of having dynamic interactions with adults of all different types.

No institution has been more damaging to humanity than state schools.
Rights holders would be in the wrong to be dissatisfied. This entire issue has been done to death in the courts over scanned library books and dozens of other media used after first sale.

Copyright is archaic and holding humanity, and especially creatives, back.
I doubt the asset store has a pumpkin in the style of Angry Birds that looks like Red, it doesn't seem a good alternative if he wanted to create this game.
Is that still the case? I feel like rural markets have really boomed in the last few years. At least I'm seeing that in the southeast. Maybe "flyover country" is different.
I've used a Thunderbolt cable as well successfully, but one note is that they're very picky about which port you use. On my Mac mini, I had to use the exact port outlined here or it did not show up: https://support.apple.com/guide/apple-configurator-mac/reviv...

> something which is normally a profession for which you have to study O(years) (and even then most people aren’t really good at). What gives parents this confidence? And what gives parents the right to squander the future of their children on a whim?

You have to consider capacity. It is a parent educating 1-2 children vs a teacher educating 30+. So while the teacher has a lot more training on how, a lot of the how is how to do it in bulk.

Would an individual focused on solving any particular problem outperform a PhD trying to solve 30 at once? I don't think that is unreasonable. Someone who hasn't picked up a book on software development yet has a reasonable chance of beating me (professional software developer) if I work on 30 projects at once.

If you have the means, you can also buy a lot of teaching a la carte.

When faced with similar resource and time constraints, teacher is going to win. But the gap in those is huge.
Yes of course, Canada is the destination for "displaced" Palestinians.
This is exactly why I lag two or three versions behind the latest.
Buyer's agent can ask for that, sure. It's not like it's automatically that way and the seller has to agree to it.
Going to take the risk and politely say I do not agree with this article at all.

Alternative advice: never allow more than one app to share the db and expose data through APIs, not queries. Then you can actually remove cruft and solve compatibility through API versioning that you probably need to do anyway. Also, never maintain more than two versions at the time.
I think it's as simple as "if no one is living in your home in a permanentmannee you get taxed hard". Landlord shouldn't be able to sit on a vacant apartment unless they can show that literally no one applied for a room. A billionaire shouldn't be able to treat a house like a stock.

But again, I don't know what any of this has to do with small startups suffering from the main topic. Paying some 4k more per employee isn't a singular gatekeeper, it's a deal breaker for those who already are on thr fence.
I don't use Phind for coding, except occasionally, but I like it best for generalised tech search because each para has a reference and there's a list of references down the side -- often the references would really be sufficient for me on their own.

I've had one glaring error, I can't quite remember the details, but it switched the names/characteristics of two different processes (ie was exactly opposite in what it said); it was something to do with instruction caching and TLB, IIRC. I assumed you'd was a problem with the input corpus not allowing antonyms to be disambiguated.

Anyway, for me it's the best of the LLM tools I have access to and had mostly replaced search engine (Google, Dukgo) for my tech-related work.

I've only used chat.openai.com (free), bing chat, HuggingChat.
No thanks.

As I see it, the choice is between my privacy and your politics.

No offense but my privacy is the bigger concern to me. Brave is one of the most privacy focused browsers available on every every major platform. Privacy by default --- no fiddling with add-ons or updates or configurations, just install and go.
Homeschooling _can_ work. But the likelihood of it working well is pretty low. You literally have a teacher wife who is homeschooling the kids. For most people homeschooling = not schooling.

Very heavily used by the hassidic community here in nyc to prevent girls from having any education.

I linked to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lzsZP9o7SlI as a top level post, but just to give you some ideas. This is John Oliver's take on it.
The municipality is on their side because many people who try to get variances on these things are legitimately cutting terrible corners that compromise both the safety of the inhabitants (present and future) and the neighbors. It's inconvenient, but these regulations save a lot of lives/QoL from bad/naive actors.
This happened to me in 2019. I went into escrow and they didn't give me the offer for about 5 days. When I finally got it, it was lower than it should have been. It rubbed me the wrong way and I bailed out of the deal.
Saved Ford?

During Fields’ tenure as Ford CEO from 2014-17, Ford’s stock declined by about 40 percent

During his tenure at Ford, he refused to relocate his family from South Florida to the region. Instead, he initially used Ford’s corporate jet to be with them every weekend. The disclosure sparked a furor, given that Ford was ailing at the time

Fields was forced out in 2017 in the wake of Ford’s more than five percent decline in car sales.

https://www.deadlinedetroit.com/articles/29110/starkman_form...

Sounds like a guy whose reputation had been tarnished, now taking advantage of a new, unexpected opportunity as CEO to re-establish it by making big, headline moves in a short time with someone else's money.

But whatever your opinion of him, an experienced, longtime executive tasked with making big turnaround moves strengthens the hypothesis that the Tesla decision was a CEO mandate without any analysis or discussion or opposition voices tolerated.
Didn’t vice catch a bunch of flack for over sensationalizing their “reporting?” Regardless I’d be more inclined to believe an actual Nigerian than a YouTube video. That person didn’t say there were zero people doing this, they said it wasn’t likely Nigeria had a widespread and systemic issue with organized crime doing this.

This is how marketing emails already work. Although outside of those, usually these are replaced by query parameters that are merely extraneous to the main path. Integrating the tracking parameters into the path in a non-separable way is going to happen eventually, though.
This idea of whether platforms should be a commons is interesting because it's an artifact of the early internet "common carrier" designation for ISPs, and then the platforms got section 230 in the communications decency act. The idea becomes important again when people defect from the platforms and just start using new protocols. Right now, I'd agree from a free speech perspective that the platforms are publishers and if they are going to censor unpopular or controversial views, they should also be liable for the illegal content on their sites. If they aren't liable for it, then they can't censor anything more than bots without risking that liability.

Imo, the next big argument will likely be whether there is a difference between a platform and a protocol as well.
What is your definition of terrorism?
> Who does the pruning, and what is considered repressive?

> So, who's building the garden walls?

I'm actually going to choose not to answer these questions because I am exhausted of them being trotted out as if the answer is "it's impossible".

In actuality, better thinkers/writers than I have answered them many times before because they're such obvious problems in anything but the simplest possible set of rules (the one TFA is arguing for: all speech is equal and not harmful).
I was thinking of WIPO, and that's interesting that they have to be invited. I guess someone could always establish a cheap LLC there if they really wanted protection.
Interesting, thanks.

I got the feeling just from watching it that he is obviously a master of the psychological side of it. It comes across as completely effortless, even bordering on onfocused ... as if at any point he could literally say "wait what was I doing?" and be serious. But he's clearly mentally many steps in front of whatever you are seeing.

I probably won't be a customer, as curious as I am. I have read how other, far less impressive tricks are done, and they require a unique combination of skills, none of which I have. That doesn't really matter, as I am not nor will be a performing magician. It's still interesting to learn about, but most leave me realizing the "secret" to that trick is "expertly do these very difficult things precisely right while always being on top of the psychological game, while at the same time acting as if you are just having a little fun".

Realizing that what you are seeing is a masterclass in all of those things at the same time is impressive though.

I just watched it again after noting all of this. I still declare parts of it impossible!
How do you enable "Ignore Web Context"? I don't see that option anywhere on the page you linked, am I just being blind?
Yes but they can drag their feet in giving it to you, since they can just sign your offer immediately. However, you can just cancel your offer after with a follow up document.

Are you saying "I believe it is true so it is fine to indoctrinate that way"?

I can't find any definition of known quantity otherwise given how extremely wide the variations on religious teaching is only focusing on science let alone other topics like history.

Let alone that there isn't only one religion in the world.

If your perspective is "if the parent says it is correct it is correct" you cannot say that is different in any meaningful way.
Optimizing the Choice of ISP
With only one wired ISP in my area offering 50 MBPS down I'd like to know how feasible the 5G Wifi offered by cellular companies is. I considered inviting over friends with different cellular providers but realize that may vary drastically and when I searched for maps of cell towers I was not able to differentiate what company owned the tower near me. Any recommendations on how to approach this or relative experience to provide?
I appreciate the help!
It was pretty common for games of the era. You could play Settlers 2 with a split screen and two mice! I had a lot of fights with my friend about whether one of us looked on the other half (being 10 year olds, we of course did all the time).
I guess enough time has passed that people are posting Elizabeth Bartolet again.

> is an enormous source of technical debt

I totally agree with you, but I think in the real world (mostly in monolithic apps, microservices shouldn't be affected) at some point someone will try to access directly the database. There are several reasons for doing this: API are too slow, it's simpler and more immediate writing some SQL vs a http client, the team responsible for APIs it's no more around and similar.
Yeah, if you reduce the number of frogs in the pot while keeping the burner setting constant, the ones remaining will boil sooner.
> It ultimately has to try something & be potentially exposing itself to detection

Yes, potential but not necessary. Think of the threat as funding a military against the military
Sounds great! Let us know when you do that!
I tried “Draw a cone with tkz-euclide”. The result is not quite right, it outputs code that draws a circle and two vertical lines and that’s it.

Unfortunately, anti-cheat systems usually don't work well with proton so "competitive multiplayer games" are exactly the sort of games that you would be more likely to have problems with on Linux.
It's in the model dropdown under the search bar.
I agree. That's why we made a choice and want to work from home (or wherever we chose from, not you).
Thanks for clarification. That was new to me.
When is an inanimate object the subject of the tracking? In all my examples it was a person being observed.
I realize this comment isn’t directly related to the article, but it got me thinking… I wonder what effect AI will have on the next generation of gaming consoles.

Will they get beefier GPU capabilities to leverage local models?

Will they use cloud capacity to host models and games require always-online capability to play as intended?

Some mixture of both?

Also, I hope that AI won’t turn into the next way to just ruin everything that was already good. A bunch of rehashed unoriginal ideas, like “it’s Pac-Man, but with AI!” Please, no.
Thanks for clarification
You don't need to switch to a different app, just a different view in the same app. Switch from timer to stopwatch and back and it'll reset to 5 minutes (default timer).
The commission is spelled out in the listing contract between the seller and their agent. The buyer is not a party to that contract and can’t dictate changes to it.
Interesting. I wonder why anyone would turn ProMotion off considering that 120Hz massively improves responsiveness. I've only encountered one app that doesn't work with variable refresh rate and that's Genshin on Windows. Even that's probably not an issue with newer monitors that can handle VRR down to 60Hz without my monitor's frame-doubling flicker as it keeps switching been 60Hz and 120Hz
The problem isn't just realtors, it is that the whole system is designed to maximize transaction costs. Who cares how much the attorney and loan paperwork cost when they are only 1-2%, you are already paying 5-6% to realtors, ~.5-1% in repair costs, and often a part of the buyer's closing costs too?

But if you think about that wholistically, that means sellers are paying 8-10% of the cost of a house every time they sell!

Surely that means someone could cut the cost in half and make a much more attractive platform, right? Opendoor comes kind of close, but they end up shouldering a lot of the risk of the transaction and therefore tend to lowball.

We do have issues with consistency sometimes -- please try regenerating if that is the case.
I see you've had to suggest this a few times in this thread, and in my experience I would agree with the suggestion. I wonder if you can have a simple gpt model decide automatically when ignoring search results would improve the result and do it automatically.
Yeah the Apple bootloader and restore stuff scares the shit out of me. The network access requirement, firmware on SSD and hardware lock are always lurking waiting for the most inconvenient time to go wonky when I hose something.

Conversely windows, just got a USB stick in the drawer I can boot off.

Unfortunately, there is not a singular answer to this question. You still have to choose which religion/sect you want to answer this question for you. You can't really delegate your morals to a deity because the choice of which interpretation of that deity's teachings you want to follow is still yours to make.
Yeah, we aren't too far apart! It's why I like HN, you can actually have a civilised conversation :)

Friction certainly makes it harder to introduce positive change. I don't think it makes it easier to make riskier ones though, but you often can't do everything you'd like to get done.
Windows 95 could do that, maybe even DOS (less sure about that though).
How did you bail without losing your deposit? I would have thought if you were the highest bidder you'd either be on the hook for the full purchase or lose your deposit.
Yeah, but how can you know if some specific IP isn't ruining your aggregated data?
Agree. No menus or anything
Show HN: All I wanted was to grok some real-time data
Hi HN,

We are launching Denormalized (www.denormalized.io), a serverless real-time data platform built on Kafka and Pinot.

We felt a bit burnt out by the sheer developer toil we faced when building application around the real-time data stack and set out to create a platform to allow small teams to be very productive with realtime data without having to glue together an elaborate system to serve real-time as well as time series queries.

Here is our motivating post. Would appreciate any and all feedback.
We started homeschooling by happenstance when it turned out that kindergarten was going to conflict with our son's beloved jiu-jitsu class. The class was a bit of a drive and we weren't going to be able to get there in time for his favorite part: the 30 minutes of horsing around on the mats before class started.

We thought, "Well, it's only kindergarten". It worked out well enough (knock on wood) that we just kept going.

Compared to my own harried "THE BUS IS COMING!!!" sleep-deprived school days, it has been a wonderful change.

If I could go back in time, I'd put my mom in an ankle lock until she agreed to do the same for me.

Especially since I learned that in my home state homeschoolers can participate in high-school sports. In high school I had to wake up at 4AM for 5AM hockey practice. If I could have returned home afterwards and slept, rather than going straight to school, I would have thanked the Gods.
Yeah, it's usually unequal in the area I used to work in. The Agent's have their own agreements with their Brokers that are independent of any sale/purchase they work on. I've seen everything from 50/50 all the way to 90/10 (10% to Broker).
If it's not documented and you have a problem then you are usually shit out of luck. The early days of butterfly keyboards was hell for a lot of people. I managed to get mine back to them for a full refund 3 days after I got it thank fuck.
Cutler didn’t just lose once to Unix, he lost twice. First with VMS in minicomputers, and second with docker on cloud. Now Microsoft are turning windows into an ad infested mess, he’s about to go to loss #3
A couple of times I've had the reference not include the detail being mentioned in the foregoing paragraph; the citations are still highly relevant, but it wasn't quite what I expected.
This is quite refreshing! Thanks for the details
Where was this? How did you find the events? How many families were involved? Did they find the events through the same channels you did, or did the others all know each other ahead of time?

In my experience not only is OP correct that there are different kinds of homeschooling, but the people involved in the different segments don't really interact at all. My wife and I were both homeschooled, living less than a mile away from each other for 10 years, but we didn't meet until we were adults. Her circle was much like you describe, but ours was far more secular, and there was very little overlap.

If you accidentally found your way into the local religious-homeschooling circles, I can understand how it would be eyebrow-raising, but that doesn't mean that the other circle isn't close by.
