Have you tried telling it that it’s very important, or that doing so will save a kitten’s life?
I was in middle school in the late 1990’s. Microsoft Word and Encarta were popular with some students, but the teachers weren’t necessarily tech savvy. If you copied text from an encyclopedia entry in Encarta to Word, the text would change to red burgundy. Students would copy content in their papers and wouldn’t even bother to change the color. I remember seeing examples of good papers in the hallways with the red text, and couldn’t believe that teachers had no idea what had happened.
I remember going through this circa 2001-2005 as a Java Programmer. I looked into getting my class C big rig truck driving license. The line that got me was "my office is the open road and I have the best window office, better than any lawyer's corner office that's stationary."

I had come to hate Java. But it turns out there are problems with being a truck driver too. I moved on to php, then rails, then golang and with self driving trucks now about to take truck drivers jobs, oh the irony of trying to leave computer programming to get into trucking.
Could've used flex weights instead of hardcoding the heights.
That's a shame because I love having recommendations for the same topic. On YouTube the videos in the sidebar don't have anything to do with the video I'm watching and that sucks.
Thanks, I'll check out Nebula.
Such a huge claim and yet seemingly hinges on the claims of one scientist? Why is this the first time we're hearing about this? No one had thought to use carbon dating on this site before?

I think the most believeable explanation is that this scientist has made some sort of mistake?
I could never figure out why and how the original x.ai held on so long. But I guess some combo of careful resource allocation, overly patient VCs, and ZIRP.
Being careful is not enough, you also have to be competent. You can be careful all you want, I had to expain to an HNer earlier for example how .js files on windows are actually native executable scripts. Is a lay person supposed to know that for example?

I've been using Copilot (not to be confused for GitHub Copilot) for past 6/7 months. I really like the Mac and iPhone apps. I'm still trying it out so I'm paying $13/month right now, but I'll most likely pay for the yearly subscription.
I understand your view and I'm very sorry what this world has come to in this regard. Doing business together is something I really value. So I can't blame you.
Another example I recently ran into is Google translate stripping gender from words even when translating between languages with grammatical gender.

(German) die Banditin -> (Spanish) el bandido

(Spanish) la bandida -> (German) der Bandit

So it always turns a female bandit into a male one.
It’s similarly comical how video-recorded board meetings will have grown-up people hold woke signs while others recite from library books with controversial wording, everyone starts shouting, and they get escorted off property for reading aloud the book (available to kids).

It feels like the US is overstretching its own diversity.

Maybe it’s just as bad some places in Europe, and it just doesn’t get televised.
Bit endian is a thing in serial protocols. I had an issue with that when using a microcontroller to talk to an LCD last week.
The word "meridiem" means "noon", the middle of the day. Noon itself is neither before nor after noon.

You're right that by convention noon is assigned a pm tag and midnight is assigned an am tag. But midnight, when the calendar date changes, is confusing enough to people that e.g. airplane departures will be scheduled for 11:59 pm rather than 12:00 am, because there's no ambiguity about when 11:59 pm will happen on Wednesday, whereas it isn't clear when midnight will happen on Wednesday -- technically, if it's Wednesday, midnight already happened on Tuesday night.

It is far more common for people to end their personal day after midnight than it is to begin it before midnight, so the convention directly contradicts the way pretty much everyone views "the day".
Not even close. It takes down a whole computer. My son downloaded a file he thought was a friend he hadn't heard from for awhile to look at the project he was working on. Had to wipe the computer. Fortunately his brother had the skills to save his files and check that they were clean. They also used his card to charge steam account stuff. Had to warn all his friends he had been infected and nuke his discord including his own server. Had to get a new bank card.
Why? If you tax A and not B, that is not much different from taxing both but subsidizing B. Most reasonable definitions of subsidies include it.

> Cars are not getting more axles, even SUVs, so this is a constant multiplicative factor. I would be happy with a tax that scales as the fourth power of the mass, no problem. That would be actually quite dissuasive very quickly. Though even a linear scaling would be an improvement over the current situation.

Sounds like we should tax EVs then: https://www.energylivenews.com/2023/06/27/evs-cause-twice-th...

The road tear on SUVs will not that that much larger, because they have wider tyres, so when you calculate kg / sqm you might get smaller value than for smaller cars.
It's called logical addition which is different than arithmetic addition, so it's best to not conflate the two. It's called "addition" because you "add" another propostion, creating a disjunction. And by the rules of logic, as long as the original proposition was true, the truth value is preserved no matter how many propositions you introduce (or "add").

A ⊢ ((A ∨ B) ∨ C) ... ∨ n
The rate limiting is basically factory capacity, yes. Simplified process:

- Czochralski purification of silicon to produce a "boule"

- saw boule into "wafers" (surprisingly important, see "reduced kerf diamond wire saw")

- wafers can be used for microchips, or doped into solar cells

- apply contacts to top face

- package into a panel with glass and aluminium frames

The "wafer" market is somewhat independent. Purification depends on the price of energy (it's very energy intensive). Better sawing reduces waste and increases wafers per boule.

More factories come online all the time. Panels themselves are now extremely cheap, and it's worth looking at "balance of system" (labour, permitting, frames and racks, inverters).

I believe market data firms track all the relevant info, although they don't necessarily give the resulting info away on the internet.
This is a fun proof of concept, but it isn't what CSS is used for. There's no conceivable reason you'd do this in practice.
I used IFTTT for a while to manage smart sockets. Then I moved to the Home Assistant.

Works better and doesn't require monthly payment. Just one time purchase of hardware.

It was unnecessarily complex to setup tho, because producers lock down their hardware to their closed cloud. Then they demand monthly payments because they have "ongoing cost", that shouldn't exist in the first place (IFTTT mentioned api fees of various producers as main reason for more aggressive monetization).

I'm happy to pay for a product. I'm not going to pay company that constructs closed ecosystem just because it allows to extract monthly fee from me.
The Prius has better visibility, and thus is unlikely to run into a pedestrian.

A large truck/SUV can’t see anything shorter than like 4 feet that is right in front of it… so it is more likely to kill someone just because it can’t see them.

My ride took me from Edmonton to Nelson BC, the town that served as the setting for the 1987 Steve Martin movie "Roxanne". The goal was to get to Vancouver but wildfire smoke got to be severe. That was my first taste of touring and I'm making plans for bigger trips next year.
Chefs used gas because it was historically the easiest thing to get high output on and easy of control (i.e., little inertial for adjustments). That is no longer the exclusive domain of gas anymore:

Professional kitchens also have giant, well-designed vent hoods to send the fumes and heat outside: most domestic/residential kitchens usually have shitty hoods (if they have them at all (not all rentals do), and some don't even vent outside) that people often don't bother even running.

The act of cooking produces various chemical regards of heat source, but gas stove also add chemicals from combustion (would you run a BBQ in your house? a car?) and may not be vented outside.
MS teams quick prompts are heavily americanised imo and sound unnatural in my culture
Can u comment more on this "white man's burden" that was prevalent in 2020 as you describe it?
Hehe, same here :)

I mean we can have perfectly rendered floating cubes with wobbly windows that get a Viking funeral when you close them. Surely, a Mondrian TWM is a possibility!
That is pretty interesting, thank you!
There are such things are RAM encryption, but yes, overall it's more fragile from a security perspective than a strong plain passphrase.
Mice also don't know that a window is being introduced and will not change their feeding behavior, at least right away. Most people will binge at the end of their window.
> It's called "addition" because you "add" another propostion, creating a disjunction.

By that argument, conjunction is also called "addition". Perhaps there's a different reason?

The choice of terminology, contrasting "logical addition" with "logical multiplication", obviously indicates that logical addition is supposed to be analogous to addition. What is the analogy?
> It's just comical how adults on Youtube talking about adult topics are pressured into censoring even mild profanity

That's mostly due to TikTok which is even worse than Youtube in its opacity and complete unaccountability to anyone.

IMHO this app is controlled by the Chinese government to a degree that it is intentional that kids can't talk about stuff like sexuality (which has to be censor-named to "seggsual") or suicide ("unaliving") using proper words - sort of like 1984.
What would be needed to have a significantly better space telescope than the JWST? A monolithic mirror might be an good improvement, but we would still be limited by the size of the fairing.

Even better than that would be to create and grind the mirror directly in space, but this would require orbital manufacturing abilities. And this means big infrastructures, so big launches.

Or maybe we need to send a telescope a few hundred AU away from the sun tp make a solar gravitational telescope! Once again, big rocket required.

JWST is a fine telescope, but the bottlenecks we face going forward require better launching capacity.
TPM based encryption is hugely useful in embedded devices, where you really don’t want to have to despatch someone to type the passphrase in. By driving it via the TPM you’re protected against someone removing the storage and being able to read the decryption key off it, and you’re also protected against someone modifying the components required to get to a decrypted disk to inject code you weren’t expecting - if the kernel or bootloader is modified then the device simply won’t boot.
This is correct. It's a wrapper around web components, kind of like Lit (which they credit in the acknowledgements).

Web components are cool, but the spec is bare. This means, a lot of rote work gets custom implemented. There are a lot of frameworks popping up, trying to "standardize" this.

Hyphen appears to one of these.
ChatGPT does quite well on the same task when you send it multiple inputs; I think you could probably do 10 of these at a time without degradation.

That you have access to different kinds of people who are able to work in their preferred way and live in their preferred location.

I think this is a huge benefit. What are the odds that all the best matches for your company happen to live within an hour's drive? And that all those people happen to be their happiest and most productive coming into an office every day? The odds of that are zero.

But it's also a trade-off. It's a big benefit, but it also comes with a lot of downside.
We have already made pedestrians bigger to compensate.
You need Saudi cash of last instance for this though.
AFAIK there are no good bridge computer programs. A crucial difficulty is making sense of the bidding phase, and of signals during the card playing phase.
Good points. Thanks for clarifying.
That’s probably why they wanted him to stay on - having him quit probably made the rest of the burnt out team worried.

We need a new GPL that includes a clause that prohibits training any sort of AI or statistical model on it, unless the output of that model is inheriting the license.

Otherwise AI will be the end of anything open - which we can already see in stackoverflow now.
I took another approach when dealing with sharing my contact with others, particularly my phone number.

My contact page contains a QR code for a vCard, but the phone number is end-to-end encrypted and not rendered if the correct key isn't provided. It's only available on my phone for friends to scan in person.

Not just no, but heck no! TPM will never be auditable, and therefore can never be considered trustworthy.
Why does the yellow arrow have to flash? It confuses me because I don't know if the yellow is off or just flashing every time it goes dim.
The 7-day cycle is so important to our lives that it's better to have a date notation for human consumption that includes it.
I don't think you can say this in general. In Germany we also have this but only when indicated with a metal green arrow. You still need to stop and turn red. Of course nobody does it. But this is only sparingly allowed where almost no pedestrians are. So using this selectively might help.
On a Mac, if a program (not the user in a file selection dialog) attempted to read a file in ~/Library/Application Support/Google Chrome/, then it would trigger an alert like "[App] from Unknown Developer wants to access files in the ~/Library folder. Allow them?" You'd also need to have manually opened system preferences to have allowed the unsigned app to run in the first place.

And yes, a user could click through that. The primary responsibility is always on the user, within the bounds of what the OS allows them to do (as an extreme, a mobile app certainly cannot access data from another app's keychain or configuration directory - but this requires a highly restrictive OS). But the point is that an application should still make an effort to use best practices provided by the operating system for protecting sensitive data. And in the case of Discord, at least on Mac, it should probably be storing tokens in the Keychain, not the filesystem (maybe it does, idk). Yes, malware can hook the process but not without compromising various OS sandboxing mechanisms, which usually requires the assistance of the user clicking past scary warnings (and even going outside the flow of alerts to explicitly disable protections).
They absolutely are taxed much heavier than most cars. Truck are charged on most highways in European Union, I expect UK has similar system. They pay per-km driven.
The most common way is for users to just download and execute it from a website or in an archive over email. No vulnerability exploitation needed, the guys that actually use vulns install a rat in addition to stealers and sell access to the computer/network.
Do you have hobbies? Maybe go travel for a year or two.
Agreed. Still, the phrase "Right Think" struck me as loaded, not "the threshold of freedom about which we all have different views".
What do you mean Azure/OpenAI, is that a Azure product for ide? Or are you referring to ChatGPT Plus?
Strollr – AI Walking Tours
Back in August I took a day trip to Lille in France. I found walking routes from blogs online but often they started far away from where I was or didn't see everything I wanted. I thought since LLMs offer so much information on this domain custom walking tours should be a thing!

Simply prompt where and what you wanna see and feel you can even add quirks like a "gangstar themed tour of New York". Would love any feedback!
KDE is now my daily desktop driver. It's great now that it also has basic window tiling support built in.
> SUVs usually have great visibility because of large windows.

I find they usually have crap visibility other than ahead and over other cars (and only cars) because of the huge pillars to avoid a rollover crushing the roof in with the heavy body and high sides. And that's when driving, when parking, they're a deathtrap until bristling with cameras and sensors because they have massive blindspots all around them.

I don't find the ability to see over the other cars especially helpful because no matter how big an urban tank is, it can't see through a Transit van, let alone an HGV.

The best visibility is a convertible with no B-pillar, but most car-shaped cars (i.e. not crossovers) have better visibility in my experience.
> Those costs aren’t proportionate. Road wear increases exponentially as weight increases.

Road wear depends on the weight and the surface area. SUVs have much wider tyres.
The grid, of course, is less sure about this compromise.
Instead of impeding progress with copyright even more than alwe already do, maybe we should repeal copyright altogether.
Not at all. Maybe it’s lost to time, but most of the important models were created by academics, not companies, up till recently. GPT-J for example was trained by one person acting alone (Ben Wang).

I fine tuned GPT 1.5B on chess games. AI Dungeon fine tuned on fantasy novels. All of this type of work will become impossible with the specter of lawsuits hovering over their heads.

EDIT: also most impactful older models were by one person (e.g. Yolo). What I like about ML is that lone wolves can have a big impact.
LUKS or eCryptfs work perfectly fine for the "stealing your laptop" use case, and are purely software implementations.

There's a poster below that provides a more reasonable use case for TPM. Headless server where asking for password on boot is undesirable (eg after a power failure)
I strongly believe that the IRS should consider more favorable tax treatment for software development expenses. Encouraging innovation in this field will benefit the economy and promote technological advancements.

I recently converted most of my team's code alongside two coworkers. While I think it probably shortened the overall time, trying to split that work meant we stepped on each other's toes a lot. Due to the usual time pressure and regression avoidance, we've ended up with more casting and non-null assertions than I'm comfortable with. Still I think it was worthwhile.
Psilocybin and LSD: What I learnt after experiencing 'psychedelic flashbacks'
We in Serbia have a saying "da komšiji crkne krava" - "I wish that neighbour's cow drop dead". It's used when one cares more that harm happens to someone else, typically a rival of some sort, than to improve their own situation.

Yes, a lot of corporates that used to have the database nowadays have something running in OCI.
Traffic laws are barely enforced as they are. Enforcing a federal ban on right-on-red (which I agree with) doesn't matter if we can't even enforce red-light cameras (which I think are mostly a good thing) or harsher punishment for phone use while driving or consistent speed limit enforcement (i.e. if you speed, you get a ticket, all the time, anywhere)
> Most folks will recognize the “standing on the shoulders of giants” quote.

Context is everything. Newton said that to Robert Hooke, a short man with a hunchback!
I've been a developer for 14 years. Maybe I've been incredibly lucky, or the companies I've worked for have had watertight hiring processes, or something, but I can't think of a time where someone didn't care about the things you list unless there was some massive pressure for them to cut corners. (Okay, maybe one contractor, a long time ago, but they were very obviously sub-standard.) I can't think of anyone who had any significant tendencies to perfectionism. Quality, maybe, but not perfectionism. And so when I come across statements like yours, I have to wonder, what standard are you pushing for? How much are you truly considering the highly-connected, messy context of these individual qualities? I'm so tired of these big-talking over-generalities where the onus is always on the individual.
When Windows NT and DEC is in the same message, may I suggest to mention that Windows NT is developed essentially by the DEC team.
