That's a perfectly reasonable answer too. There's a couple of other VT100 features that are safe to omit if you aren't going for full "historical accuracy" -- VT52 mode, for instance, has been obsolete for 30-40 years now.

As an aside: I wonder how useful it'd be to assemble a report documenting all known terminal control sequences and other behaviors, what terminals they're available in, and how frequently they're used in modern software. There are some big gaps between the DEC documentation, ECMA035/043/048, and actual implementations of terminal emulators.
Weird, people usually talk favorably about garbage collection on HN.
Why would you want such a system? Capitalism is not a law of nature but markets, in aggregate, across many cultures, certainly are, for some definition of nature (perhaps human nature) which is not wholly consistent with the literal laws of nature such as those of the physical world.
Asking sincerely as an American: How? An example would help.

The best I can come up with is that plenty of companies right now have horse blinders on and suicidally seek an always growing profit margin. If something can't continue forever, then it won't.

Macro economics though, so I'd trust his insights about as much as rolling dice, maybe less.
The general rule of thumb is that consumption is a lot more equal than income (whether pre-tax or post-tax) and if you care about living standards for the poorest you should care about consumption. Wealth inequality is probably a real issue, but the root problem there is people having very different cultural/social attitudes to spending down vs. accumulating wealth. There are also forms of wealth that don't show up in official statistics, such as the enduring social capital that protects many established communities from marginalization and fraying relationships.
Um, I don't know. Exaggeration? No, I only wish. Faulty part or not, it happened years after the purchase.

Starship is designed with way faster turnaround time. Falcon 9 had optional reuse, while Starship aims to be the 747 of space access.

Elon said in 2020:
> Starship is being designed to be relaunched an hour after landing, with zero nominal work

Now while that might take some time to reach, before that the pad itself is likely going to be capable of many launches every day given there's more ships. Starships seems to be made to be way more economical to manufacture per-ship than the shuttles or Saturns so I don't see a bottleneck in that.
but we still have to try, to get anywhere
I mean, we've had one Nobel Peace Prize winner bomb another Nobel Peace Prize winner, so it's better if you disagree in terms of the ideas instead of credentials.
Recently, I embarked on a project to create a song as a tribute to my colleagues' exceptional work in a specific domain. My tools? OpenAI for lyric generation, tailored to my specifications, and Suno for vocal and track synthesis. The resulting song was a blend of AI-driven creativity and my vision. However, as I prepared to share this creation on Slack, I pondered the nature of authorship in the AI era. Was I truly the 'creator' when automated processes played a significant role?

This led to a broader realization: the song wouldn't exist without my initial concept and the nuanced curation involved in its completion. It's not merely that AI executed 90% of the work; it's that my 10% contribution leveraged these advanced tools to achieve a 90% outcome, a testament to the power of technology in amplifying human creativity.

In a world where websites, businesses, and SaaS tools can be launched in mere minutes, it's becoming increasingly clear that ideas and the ability to effectively harness technology will be paramount. This shift raises fascinating questions about the future of creativity and the evolving role of the human in the creative process.

My key message is this: "So what if your business heavily relies on OpenAI models?" The unique prompts you craft hold intrinsic value. They don't diminish the time, expertise, and knowledge you invest in shaping the results. Take designing a 3D chair using an AI system, for instance: achieving optimal results hinges on your ability to precisely describe what you need, a skill that itself depends on your understanding and knowledge of design. In this context, delving into classics and broadening your educational horizons is more crucial than ever. It equips you with the nuanced articulation needed to harness AI's potential fully.

P.S. An AI model assisted me in crafting this comment, but the experiences and insights I've shared are my own, as is the majority of the words in this text. The advantage I gain from AI is the better articulation of my ideas. This tool is akin to a dictionary, a grammar checking tool, or a system that translates my native tongue into English.
It's a fundamentally bad idea. I think for anything to look monospace for me the following two properties are non-negotiable.

1) Horizontal spacing needs to align vertically between glyphs of the same letters on separate lines. This is the example I give elsewhere of a letter "i" being in a very slightly different position than the same letter just two lines above it. I personally find this extremely disturbing and unpleasant to look at in monospace.

2) The glyph of a letter needs to be the exact same between instances of the same letter that are in any kind of visual proximity. This is the "gimme" example the parent of your comment gives. AnyThinG ElSe LoOkS lIkE jumblycase. Which I think we can all agree is just plain horrible.
I think the effects of noise on sea mammals is a fairly recent area of research. I know of a researcher who has been working on this as part of research into offshore wind environmental impact. But they were already researching porpoises and this was just a new thing to keep track of.

Haha yeah definitely! I was watching the news where Estonian people were interviewed. While there were Finnish subtitles I could understand maybe half of the sentences without them, but the words would be "really odd super-rural", which I found funny.

Also, I'm not sure if it's a thing in Estonian, but I've heard in Lithuania or Latvian there's no distinction between spoken and written language.

Example from Finnish:

* Minä means I/me in written Finnish

* Mä/Mää/Mie/... is what people typically use in spoken language

Which is what some of my international friends have been complaining about the Finnish courses at my university -- that they learn the written Finnish from their 101 books, but it's not so useful since in daily interactions people just use spoken Finnish.

And well maybe the minä -> mä you can see the length difference. Maybe Estonian is just more advanced in the "spoken-ness", if you will, of the language.

Here you can see the different "minä"s by region in Finland: https://yle.fi/a/74-20010020. The article's in Finnish, but just scroll down and you can still very much understand the map.

Here's the article Google-translated to English, but I'm not sure if it would also translate the "minä"s: https://yle-fi.translate.goog/a/74-20010020?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x...

My hypothesis:

The key to the whole scam is that the shipments are cross-continental and that there's no observability into where the shipment is during that time. The scammer immediately drops off the load at a storage facility, which begins to bill for storage time, several days later, when the load is supposed to arrive on the other side of the country, the owner comes looking for it and the storage facility presents the owner with an invoice for storage time that wasn't originally needed. The owner pays the storage facility, which sold storage space that would have gone unused, and the storage facility pays the driver a finder's fee kickback.

It's a variant on the squeegee window washers' scam. Pull up at the stoplight and the scammer starts washing your window, then demands payment for a service you didn't agree to. Victims pay because the amount of money is too small relative to the hassle of being held up, not because they (didn't) freely purchased a service that they got real value out of.
Just curious why aren't groceries near by, are local shops also not available.

What makes a suburban area a hellscape? Is it unusually hot? Are there a large amount of murders? Just curious what that means since I grew up with the term and years later still bought a house in a city next to a large city which is really an unbroken metropolis without a real green space between. There are a few farms nearby and ranches getting converted to 5 story apartments and 4 lane roads, and that seems less friendly than the small city of homeowners the city has evolved from which is what it was when I bought my house here. Small cities seem nice to me.

I am waiting to see the reaction of the different groups of human.
If you're in the ruling class and even remotely intelligent, you'd realize a decently sized middle class is absolutely essential to their own prosperity.
Throughout history, when too many people get pushed lower in the social/economic strata is a great way to ignite a rebellion. The masses have nothing left to lose at that point.
There are different ways to define pi. In real analysis, you first define the exponential function: exp(x) = sum (x^k)/(k!), then cosine: cos(x) = Re(exp(i*x)), where i is the imaginary unit, and then show that cos(x) has exactly one root in [0,2], which you call pi/2.

Your statement suggests that the definition via the circle is more fundamental that other definitions, which it isn't, e.g. because it requires a very special metric in Euclidean space (of which there are infinitely many), while real analysis only requires a metric on the real numbers.
I think this is a threat on its own. Education isn't everything, and may even backfire with dumb people. You know, there are people who are somewhat dumb, they figure a lot of things out, but they do know that they need a lot of help, and that they are not exactly geniuses.

But once a person's intelligence gets too low, they can't figure out anything. But, they can still learn. They don't see anything wrong with them, they think it's how the world works, people know and can do things that somebody taught them. When they see somebody figure something out, they think it's something they learned in the past, but are dumb and evil people who laugh at them for not knowing. Stupid and evil peoppe who refuse to pass on what they were taught. And they never figure out that they aren't normal, or even think that they're brilliant, because they remember more than others.
This misses the fact that not everyone can make this change. This kind of thinking is rampant in the Linux communities and is not entirely helpful. Maybe we can come up with a better way to respond to these users, and help make them feel like Linux is more inclusive.
Good tech leaders generally don’t command: they inspire.

And when you’re at the point where you’re trying to figure out the “right way to say things” you’ve already, utterly, failed.

Good tech leaders influence, guide, and grow people. They are honest and authentic.

The management style I have seen work the best is when people act in a real, genuine and sincere ways that are true to who they are as individuals and avoid manipulative behavior. They can still be hard chargers. They can still be abrasive. But they generally have a great degree of self-honesty and consideration to others to go along with their ambition.

Spending oceans of time trying to figure out the right turn of phrase is a terrible idea. It’s focusing more on how things look rather than putting the focus on how things are and how things should be.

Obviously there are oceans of management styles. But I can say that the smooth talking, super considered people who are focused on how exactly to say things rather than bigger picture leadership ideals are typically to worst, most manipulative people I have ever worked with.

NSF has funded all sorts of major advancements and inventions we depend on: cloud computing, multicore processors, wireless networks, fiber optics, computer graphics, bar codes, MRI, PCR, CRISPR, improved LASIK, doppler radar, modern internet and web, cryptography, AI/ML, etc.

Also: Google (pageRank, data centers), Nvidia (CUDA), VMware (virtualization), Qualcomm (CDMA) - many tech companies have leveraged research (and people) funded by NSF.

On the NIH funded/medical side we can look at things like mRNA vaccines, which may be transformative in fighting many diseases.

On the DOE-funded side we seem to be seeing major advancements in nuclear fusion.

On the DARPA side modern self-driving cars (and associated businesses) seem to derive from DARPA's grand challenge in the 2000s.

Strange, I recently pasted full file in this GTK open file dialog, probably when using Gimp or Inkscape. I would have found this pretty annoying if it didn't work. Just successfully tried right now.

There are no companies that are the “Google” of 20 years ago. Apple comes close in some ways, but it’s not a “young” version of Google, obviously.

Google is the internet, and most of its ads. Apple more or less is consumer tech. That is to say, they are the market makers and they decide what these market’s “truth” is.

There aren’t that many companies with that much leverage over that big of a market.
> They don't get stuff done, and they never will. Have you never experienced a call tree? They're universally useless except for getting you to a human in the approximate right department. An LLM chatbot is just a call tree that says sorry to you if you swear at it.

Sorry, this is entirely incorrect, for many reasons, not the least of which concerns your universality in extrapolating your experiences to everyone else: "they never will," well, "never" is a long time; "universally useless," obviously not universally useless, if at least some people find use from them; "An LLM chatbot is just a call tree that says sorry to you if you swear at it," incorrect entirely, which belies your misunderstanding of what LLMs actually do and behave like.

I recently had to have an Amazon order refunded, and it happened entirely though a chatbot multiple choice tree, and it wasn't even an LLM, just a dialogue tree. It worked fine, I got the amounts refunded as intended. Now, with LLMs, they are even more useful than what I experienced, as they actually understand your intent as well as a human would. If you disagree with that fundamental premise, then I'm not sure what to tell you other than to use GPT-4 via ChatGPT.

In short, just because you had bad experiences doesn't mean everyone else has as well.
> It's not that AI executed 90% of the work

Obviously not. People on whose works ClosedAI was created did most of it.
Imagine you see a painting you like... you really like it... but you don't even have to look at the price because you already know what it is. It's the most you would possibly pay for it. That's eliminating the consumer surplus. Everything would be priced at the highest possible price that you'd still pay. Need to fly home for a funeral? Suddenly plane tickets are $10,000 because they know you wouldn't miss it for the world.

You need only look at the difference between catering/decor for a wedding and catering/decor for any other event to see how much wealth extraction... how much poorer we would all be, if we lose the consumer surplus.
Maybe they preferred Pocky?
No that's not down that path at all.

For lots of jobs your ability to trade in stocks is restricted. For example when I worked in the securities division of Goldman there was a restricted list of stocks that I was not allowed to own (because we were publicly doing something for them) and then I had to send all my trades through the employee trading desk because they had another list which was the restricted list where the deals weren't public yet so say we were going to be advising XYZ corp on a potential takeover of MNO corp. Only the people on that deal team would know anything about it, so XYZ and MNO stock wouldn't be on the restricted list but if I tried to buy or sell either of those stocks in my personal account I wouldn't be allowed. And there were other restrictions as well.

When I worked for a software company I wasn't allowed to trade in any stock of any of our clients or prospective clients and I had to sign a thing saying I wasn't going to trade based on any client information that was disclosed to me in the course of doing business with the client. etc

These kinds of restrictions are absolutely normal in business. Additionally, in other countries, politicians don't have this sort of carve-out on insider trading laws. This wouldn't be some kind of slippery slope. For example in the UK, members of parliament have to publish their financial interests to avoid these kinds of conflicts https://publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm/cmregmem/contents22...
I thinks it’s sad that LLMs have become so hostile to builders. It doesn’t have to be this way.
> If Starship meets its reusability goals

Launching multiple times per day was never a design goal of Falcon 9 but it is explicitly a design goal of the Starship program. They're going to need fast turnaround for all the orbital refueling missions they've already sold for HLS.

The entire industry said they'd never land, then they'd never be able to reuse, then they'd never reuse 10+ times. They're up to 18 reuses. Now they'll never reuse twice in the same day? There's no physical law preventing it, it's just a matter of good engineering. It's not a sure thing but I wouldn't bet against them.

Also, Falcon 9 has been turned around in 21 days, with a significant chunk of that being shipping. And there's no indication that they've hit any limit, they simply don't need to go faster right now given their fleet and launch cadence.
What's Walmart's market share of online retail?

Conversely what's Amazon's share of physical detail? (Preferably excluding whole foods since that's an arguably different business to selling cheap electronics and other junk)

It's as if the two companies operate in... different spheres!
Sorry for forgetting the word 'decade', my point still stands.
Data that most people don't use Linux as their day-to-day desktop OS for development? I suppose you can just look at desktop Linux statistics, which shows <5% usage. In my experience, most use macOS, or Windows via WSL2, which does use Linux but I am not sure if that is actually reflected in any desktop OS statistics.
I've had the same frustration. The browsers have such great debugging features, in theory, but they never seem to work reliably. I can't even get all of my breakpoints to reliably hit.

Everything seems to work ok when the code is unrolled but as soon as it gets bundled, even if not minified, it seems that a lot of debugger features get broken, at least that's been my experience.

Note: I'm not a front-end engineer and I'm probably doing something wrong.
I sure sapceX don't have department of wildlife. we don't have enough research on this issue, I don't know why it is OK to do anything before we do not have information. maybe just like old Big oil companies, just do it before people found what do they do?
Wordy but ultimately unhelpful.
It’s bonkers. It’s absolutely bonkers. I feel like I’m witnessing the creation of the wheel.

Non-space nerds don’t quite understand why it’s so exciting. But I can’t imagine how much this is going to change the world, and civilization. It’s kind of the equivalent of going from local freighters to the Seawise Giant in one iteration.
Well, yes, that is the crux of this argument, that one can convince their employer to use mold. Otherwise, what is the point of using it? Desktop users by and large will not notice a small 3-5% improvement in compile times while those that pay for CI will.
Agreed, Firebase auth is pretty easy and well documented in my experience. Allows quick setup of phone, email/password, and oauth/sso (Facebook, Microsoft, etc.) based flows.
