> Buddhism and monasticism are revered social institutions in some places,

Its a stupid and incredibly hypocritical take for this societies. (and I say this as someone who's parents come from such a culture) to become buddha, you must kill the buddha. this may sound offensive to the ignorant but revering buddha to this level is counterproductive to achieving the state of enlightenment.

The processes are relatively transparent and regularly being reported upon [0][1], though working drafts are not generally public. Most of what is being criticized now is already contained in the 2021 proposal [2]. In reaction to earlier criticisms, provisions were added to the current draft to allow browser vendors to take measures in case of security concerns regarding QWACs, see paragraphs 2–4 in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38183994. The whole thing is not a secret conspiracy, and legislators are generally well-intentioned (for whatever that’s worth).

Given that human breast milk can be (imperfectly) substituted, the benefits clearly outweigh the cost regarding depression and suicide. Even more so when you factor in the possible health and QoL ramifications for children who lost their mother to suicide.
Currency Transaction Reports(CTRs) are strictly dollar-driven: if someone deposits/withdraws an amount over $10K in a single transaction, CTR is filed automatically. However, if you Zelle to X for a few times, and this X seems to receive too many Zelle payments, both you and X (assuming both have accounts at the same bank) can be reported through SARs with "this transaction has no apparent economic, business or lawful purpose."

How banks figure out which transactions don't serve economic, business or lawful purpose? They can only figure out in a negative way. Either you should become a private banking client (in which case, you get a royal treatment through manual overrides, different compliance teams--just like first class vs economy class flights) or your banking routine should be four paystubs, 20 billpay, and debit card purchases. The more transactions (zelle, deposits, withdrawls, money orders, cashier checks) one is engaged in, the higher the chance that one will be SAR'ed though "transactions don't serve economic, business or lawful purpose".

Didn't expect to see Skeeter Salim on Hacker News. Like, ever, much less in this context.

Trial attorneys have a very peculiar reputation in Louisiana. They get incredibly wealthy on the backs of lawsuits against the state's oil and gas businesses and their insurers, then turn that money into political lobbying power. This creates a populist dynamic where trial attorneys try to rally voters to oppose tort reform laws in the legislature that are often backed by insurance companies.

For instance, in the Louisiana gubernatorial election, where Salim shows up in this article: https://www.nola.com/news/politics/jeff-landry-is-collecting...

> The people moving money to blacklisted places aren't opening Bank of America checking accounts.

My understanding of money laundering, and the laws designed to catch it, wasn’t that it’s used to get money into illegal places. Laundering is used to get money back out of illegal places in a way they can spend as legal money - exactly a Bank of America account.

The other way is to communicate with the bank. Talk to them. If you're doing something involving a large amount of money, or something unusual for you, call them up, tell them what you're doing and ask for their help.

Why are we arguing about something still in the drafting stage, then? If they're still working on it, they're still working on it. It's not even finished to the stage where the public or the parliament can review it. There's probably stuff in there they're still thinking through and will eventually delete.

Laws don't go from secret drafting, straight to law. They get public comments, the parliament has to vote on them, the commission has to vote on them (I think - something like that), they go back to drafting to make an amended version that's more acceptable, etc etc... of course the unfinished draft version isn't acceptable.

This isn't the first time everyone's got upset about an unfinished EU law. All previous times, it was shot down by the EU Parliament, who are supposed to represent the citizens.
There's not really any reason to think this other than shibboleths, it's become a thought-deadening cliche.

I've played with true base models at big tech over a period of 6+ months, it's a much much more frustrating experience, not an "unlocked" or "honest" version. Setting temperature to 1.2 is a reasonable miniature taste of the vibe of it.

It would be interesting to see it done using logit probabilities, I.e. instead of asking for p 0 to 1, instead, ask it true or false, set logit bias such that those are the only two tokens that could be output, and use the logit probability emitted by the API.

> The US doesn't have free speech.

Oh, it absolutely does. It's really the only country that I would say absolutely does.

No other country has free speech enshrined in it's constitution to the same extent, nor such a strong history of caselaw defending it. The US has a lot of problems, but as a people they are almost as zealous in defending free speech as they are in defending the 2nd amendment. In most other countries other concerns might take priority, but often and only in the US free speech will be the first consideration.

> DNSSEC is massively problematic.

Everyone has all of these problems with DNSSEC but no solutions. What's the better alternative? We need a way to verify hostname lookups.

DNSSEC does what it says on the tin. DIYing DNSSEC is a pain in the ass, but in 2023 I think the overlap of folks who self host DNS and aren't capable of setting up DNSSEC is quite small.

I personally think we missed a great opportunity with DANE to decentralize a lot of things, but DNSSEC FUD got in the way.

This isn't an attempt to break encryption. Can you show how it is? The EFF has just posted a load of FUD in this article - governments already control CAs, so giving them another one wouldn't give them any new interception capabilities. Actually eIDAS would give them less interception capability, since the browser would have to display some icon saying it's an eIDAS certificate, which it doesn't do for other CAs.

Their claims center around "the current language is imprecise" and I'm having a really hard time seeing why that's a problem for a bill that hasn't even finished being written yet.

> GPT-4’s current knowledge cutoff of Jan 1, 2022

Knowledge cutoff refers to the "guaranteed knowledge". Scrapes may have information beyond this point since internet scraping is presumably done over many days.

For instance, this particular version of GPT4 is aware of the date Russia invaded Ukraine (Feb 24, 2022).

I suspect you need to ask questions that resolved >3 months past the knowledge cutoff date for GPT-4 to truly not know.

And them getting any calories is usually more important than me being super choosy about the composition of those calories. I was very proactive about all of this for quite a while but have relaxed somewhat as things evolve at home.

Also, many things fall into the not-ideal bucket. That doesn’t just mean the quality of the ingredients but also the specific food. Someone else mentioned chickpea pasta - and it’s great. But it’s also still partially processed. But because it’s not pure generic pasta, it’s ok? I don’t know.

I really prioritize the quality of things as much as possible rather than worrying in detail about whether they are metabolic superpowers or the opposite.

> it's probably better to default to unsigned types.

Security teams at our company have told me this too but I absolutely disagree. If you're going to write in C, and you don't want your variable to overflow, then you should use a type that doesn't have defined overflow semantics.

The reason for this is that it makes it easier to find bugs, because you want to discover wrong behavior rather than just define it to do an arbitrary wrong thing. You can do this with UBSan.

In fact, as long as it's okay for your code to crash, I endorse shipping it with UBSan turned on. (Presumably this isn't the case for a car MCU though. Don't ask me what to do there.)

Practically, people who succeed at this get it working end-to-end with whatever compromises it entailed, they might tell anyone that they never would have done it that way had they known how it would turn out, yet, they have a bird in the hand.

There's a problem of scale mismatch.

My RSS reader needs the toolbox of

https://scikit-learn.org/stable/model_selection.html#model-s...

to make reliable scripts that can rebuild a model when the data changes. The version built into scikit-learn has the features I need, other ones don't. scikit-learn is great for problems of a certain size that take, say, 10 minutes to run.

That scale turns out to be appropriate for very fast prototyping of systems need about a human-week of judgements to light up, that can be updated daily, etc.

Someone is going to insist on using slower models that take two hours to train (wrapped up in a model selection process), where you worry the machine might crash, and have to take a "distributed systems" approach that adds a terrible overhead for jobs that don't need it. If I liked the model selection story I could probably live with that but so far I don't.

If you know your variable is between 0 and 15 and care deeply about this, I kinda think you should get explicitly-ranged integer types added to your language rather than use a type that's defined for -32767 - 32767 but doesn't enforce it.

Also, IME it obscures bugs in your code if you're forced to overspecify things, because now someone reading it has to determine if all those explicitly specified details are actually correct or not.
I'm generally bearish on calorie/protein restriction increasing healthspan/lifespan in humans. I question how applicable these sterile mice studies are to people who live in the real world who get infections, hip fractures, etc.

https://peterattiamd.com/calorie-restriction-part-iia-monkey...

To grossly simplify the above article about monkeys, we have a 2x2 matrix: diet quality and calorie restriction (CR).

Good Diet + No CR = 29.10 years median lifespan
Good Diet + CR = 28.48 years median lifespan
Shit Diet + No CR = 25.91 years median lifespan
Shit Diet + CR = 28.32 years median lifespan

So yeah, if you're gonna eat a crap diet CR will help you. But how about you don't eat crap and go out and exercise?
In mathematics, there are whole books almost completely dedicated to problems you are supposed to work out. Or the prose is terse and dense, like Rudin's textbooks on real analysis. They are valuable books, but they aren't often recommended to beginners. You can use a bit of sugar to make the medicine go down.

I think books are often long to give the reader some space to think. Perhaps the best readers know how to create their own space, but the worst readers require the sugar. In other words, books are long because people aren't good readers.
> If you’re paying 6%/year in property taxes, a home is no longer an “investment”, and the house hoarding (especially by the likes of investors buying single-family housing) will cease.

It wouldn't accomplish that. The big investors would just shrug, keep buying houses and renting them out, passing your 6% to the renter to pay. Meanwhile regular people would be priced out of their home by taxes, reducing home ownership even further and those big investors would snap up those homes. Repeat cycle until those corporations own 100% of all properties.

You want to incentivize owning and living a home, so I would do 0% tax on primary residence (up to some value limit), maybe 5% on a second home and ratcheting steeply up from there on each additional property owned by a person or entity.

That would wipe out the corporations owning hundreds of homes since they would not be able to profitably rent them out if they're paying 100+% tax on each. Meanwhile regular people can live in the only home they own without tax.
