Credit agency Moody's cuts outlook on US Government to negative
Interesting article! This would certainly be amenable to signal processing algorithms if you could get reliable wave height/frequency data. I suspect flying a kite doing SAR above and behind the ship (looking forward) would likely be to complicated.

I was thinking more along the lines of a ship that was outfitted with a container retrieval bay sailing back and forth along the trade routes.
The thing about that line of argument is that the balance between things being sorted by the bot vs needing a human is almost never right.

My current employer has a slack helpbot where you dm the bot and it does a first pass at trying to find the right ticket/form etc to solve your problem. If it can't, it opens a regular helpdesk ticket with the info you have given it so far and the helpdesk sorts your problem out. It's great.

Most corporate chatbots however are not like this. For example, when I went recently to resolve a problem with an insurance policy I got pushed on the website to the chatbot. After going through a bit of annoying to-ing and fro-ing the chatbot told me it couldn't do anything and I had to call up. At this point all the information I had given it while it was trying to resolve my problem is in the dumpster and as far as its concerned, job done. I however have wasted a bunch of time and am back to square 1. Worse than that, when I sit in the (now incredibly long) phone queue to speak to the few human helpdesk agents who remain I have to listen to the recording repeatedly telling me "why not use our super-helpful chatbot".

DARPA still has a budget though, even if it is much smaller than NSF's. And there is still a lot of DoD funded research.
The dungeons series is pretty much the same, focused on events and story. Overworld focuses more on building, micro/macro managing, exploring and combat.

Not all humans are equal. Some still retain the spirit of wonder and awe -- dare I say zest -- that allows them to find inspiration. Whether that is through internal or external means, they still can be impelled to act by the right stimulus.

To be civilized is to bend to genteel sensibilities; and nothing inspiring ever comes from that. Logically sound, rational, and convincing sure; but never inspiring.

If it’s too expensive to get a drivers license then it’s probably too expensive to go on a night out too.

Also are there other options for ID? Eg in UK, Australia, NZ you can get identity cards that prove your age. Australian one costs $77 AUD.

The gov is not a monolithic entity. If an organization has power over an important private entity, it comes down to a couple of people and their ego's and I am damn sure their ego loved the idea of making the all important SpaceX and Musk do a little dance for them.

Why do you hate nurses and want their salary to go down? You understand that result of nurses getting top of the list priority will be lower salary? You can probably drive nurse salaries all the way down to 30k if US recognizes Philippine nurses degrees.

There is society need to drive down unreasonable salaries (700k at Google) - at minimum more cool stuff will be done in US. It’s much less clear that there is society need to drive down middle class salaries.

If you're looking for the right turn of phrase, you already lost. As a leader, you need to establish a rapport (with someone who is anyway initially inclined to desire rapport with you, because you're their boss and have outsize influence over future compensation) and negotiate over high-level context: IC availability and understanding what problems need solving. If everyone understands the problem and there's mutual trust, the details take care of themselves.

Of course, "establish mutual trust" is a whole megillah unto itself. But if it exists, "take out the trash" is not bossy. If it doesn't exist, "could we take out the trash?" is incredibly rude.
Claiming the Titanic would seem to be a peculiar kind of exceptionalism, assuming it wasn't a joke or a typo.

I don't know a lot about Minitel, but it sounds like it was impressively useful years before the web.

In the US I'm sure many AOL users didn't think they needed the web. Apple even collaborated with AOL to create their own online service, eWorld, just as the web was taking off (they shut it down after a couple of years and migrated users to AOL.)

There is an interesting effect where early technology adopters get left behind once a replacement technology takes off and goes mainstream.

I'm sure many people who had Blackberry, Palm or i-mode devices didn't think they needed the iPhone.

NASA scientists don’t work on rockets; they design experiments for space missions and stuff like that.
Note that this vulnerability was disclosed in March this year.

They had 7 months to fix this, if the cyber security providers and SOCs would do their job correctly.

How can this happen if all of their EDR tech stack, firewall subscriptions and overpriced data enrichment pipelines are supposed to warn about this?
I've pondered a few times, what would be the correct way to configure a salary? There are of course horrific jobs with shit pay and lazy ones paid way to much but I believe even supply and demand market mechanisms aren't doing what we want them to.

Perhaps to ensure they are all real to put a $500 tax on each job offer and charge $20 for seeking a job, count them, sort by occupation, increase minimum salary where demand is much larger than supply, lower it where supply exceeds demand. Perhaps compensate randomly chosen people to review what a job is like and rate if they think it should be paid more or less.

Something quite similar could be done for the length of the work day and the number of days per week/year. Max 11 hours of driving could be insufficient if there are many job offers. If there are few hours it can be adjusted to say 10 hours and 30 min along with a 5% raise.
> Is that big number due to catastrophic failures of entire vessels sinking

No, it's literally because containers fall off the ship and are lost at sea. Total losses of vessels are very rare.

Large container ships carry huge stacks of containers, sometimes as high as 8-10 containers above the deck. While the containers are locked together to keep them from moving, they can still fall off during storms.

The hook is about Jezebel and the meat is how some news site advertisers work. It's good stuff.

But I care too much about the hook! Jezebel is (was?) one of the news websites on my mental blacklist because I saw them publish bad articles for years. Plenty of clickbait and sometimes they skewed the truth to argue their points. This happened multiple times over years and I quietly, mentally, gave them many second chances. They lost my trust.

>The irony of all of this, of course, is that ads end up in places they’re nominally not supposed to be, all the time, and ads are filtered away from high-quality sites doing high-quality journalism like Jezebel to garbage, low-quality websites all the time.

404media is ignoring Jezebel's faults. If we want good retrospectives then we need to be honest with ourselves.
We haven’t built new housing in cities in decades, so this isn’t surprising. Suburban hellscapes where you have to drive 40 minutes to buy groceries are cheap, but who wants that?
But more important first is to put headphones on seals and play sonic boom sounds to test and make sure they aren't startled by the scary rocket sounds.

(Ok, stretching a little. That is what a seemingly similar survey did at Cape as a part of some similarly goofy bureaucracy thing that has been holding Starship back the last month or so. For Starship they're worried for the risk of what happens if Starship literally falls on a shark)

I was in Iceland in 2014 when the Bárðarbunga volcano started to erupt. It was relatively calm and in the end, pretty safe, but during the event we were monitoring the news and waiting for a catastrophe at any moment. Lava was flowing down the landscapes. There was a considerable mental stress for me because of the uncertainty of how bad it would turn out, and it really put into perspective how we are at the mercy of nature and really can't do much except leave. What struck me was that Icelanders were so used to the threat of volcanic eruption that they didn't seem too bothered about it. "It's normal"
Come on, this is the wrong attitude. What they asked for could be prototyped in a day to see if it makes sense.

Show HN: Battlespace Telemetry
There is shortage of world class CEOs in America. If we talk about Fortune 500 (the only ones where CEOs make a bank) - there are literally less than a thousand people who are or have been CEO of such companies. If we accept immigration system premise (you are qualified and are in similar role outside US right now) the pool of available candidates is likely few dozen people worldwide. The fact that millions of people may want that role is irrelevant as they are not qualified.

MBA education system is irrelevant too as it does not produce CEOs - it produces L4/L5 PMs few of whom after 30 years of stellar career will climb to be CEOs.

I get most groceries at the local Walmart. Their self checkouts try to limit you by having a small bagging area. I work around it by putting the bags directly back into the cart.

We also have an upscale local grocery chain in town with baggers that will take your stuff out to your car if you want, but I hate it because it simply takes too long. Never go there unless I only need a few items, or something that only they carry. Their olive oil is sublime!
"We're currently working on supporting Firefox with our development server. Meanwhile, try running the page using a different browser. " The playground says.
This is one way to command, but it isn't the best way, because the "best" way depends on the people you command. Some prefer hands-on, others prefer hands-off. Some like very strong decisiveness ("You do this") while others prefer a more consensus-style approach ("let's get opinions on this").

At the end of the day, it comes down to "know your audience". You'll have your own preferred way of leadership, and the people under you will have theirs. Your job is to find a synergy whereby your leadership actions inspire the majority rather than repels them. There will always be some who don't like your style, but you can't make everyone happy. And there will always be other leaders with opinions on leadership, but they're usually talking about their people, not yours. All that matters is: Are you effective in moving your organization, and are the majority whom you lead inspired?
Swimming 3 times a week for about 45 minutes changes the body and mind.

And is a little addictive like ex. running.

Background:
I've been swimming for the last few years for about 10-20 minutes twice a week
and I've experienced the changes.

Switching few months ago to more intense sessions led to dramatically higher rate of the change and I start to think about the ways of sustaining this.
For now I've bought the swimming paddles and this works.

From the article:

"As I write this, with just a handful of browser tabs open, Slack, and a distraction-free writing app (iA Writer—it’s great), I’m consuming just about 11GB on my M2 MacBook Air."

How the hell did we end up here? This level of waste is mind-boggling. Honestly, this makes me want to run MenuetOS as my daily driver.
That's incredible. It's not really about whales and sharks, they know the probability is 0%, those agency people can't be that stupid. What they are really saying is they'll shove all the sticks they have in his spokes. If it was in some other country, I might have guessed they are just plainly asking for a bribe, but here I think they just really don't like the Musk and his company.

When some random person interacts with the bureaucracy, and hits these catch-22 scenarios, it's often not personal, they just fall under the wheels of the bulldozer, so to speak, and nobody notices or cares. But with something like Space X it's a bit more political, and it seems whoever drives the bulldozer was turning it towards Musk a bit to get him on purpose.

Can we not make SSNs just less sensitive? They're supposed to be for social security no? Why are they using them for so much other crap first of all. And then secondly.. just stop using it as a form of IDing me. Use my govt ID or something. Or that thing that openai or whoever did recently.
Beside the point. I don’t think Fish and Wildlife is doing anything other than being annoying obstructionist bureaucrats, but even if you interpreted their obstruction in the least flattering way possible, which I agree is unfair and uncharitable, it still wouldn’t win any sympathy for SpaceX.
But I know I'm reaching here. I just like fantasizing about math :).
Yeah, that’s right. Do you have any other questions? It’s going to be a fun discussion with your desire to reduce everything to absurdity.
Didn't even realize there already was a comment for this. Pointed out the exact same timestamp independently in another comment.

Talking of the more reasonable bureaucratic hoops, SpaceX has done quite a job filling all of FAA's requirements they landed on the program from the previous attempt. In a way I hoped that SpaceX would operate outside US to not have to abide by all the crazy laws they have (even with hiring!) but this seems to be the only way.

Overall, Starship isn't being given a fraction of the coverage it should be. This is the Apollo of our time, but without the dependency of hyper-inefficient and unstable government funding. But this time, Moon will be just a bus stop.
Where I live, even __they__ aren't cheap. It's absurd.
It's generally more interesting to apply validation to data than ontologies themselves. OWL makes this harder, because it rejects two assumptions that are commonly used in real-world modeling: (1) Unique Name Assumption; every object in the domain is described by a single entry in your data model. By contrast, OWL will always try to conflate different entries in order to solve logical consistency issues that arise from your model; (2) Closed-World assumption on relations. OWL rejects this and assumes that your data about the relations or properties in any given model is always incomplete. Its reaction to issues that crop up with your modeling is to enforce logical consistency by adding "inferred" property instances to your data, as opposed to simply flagging the issue for validation. Real-world technologies like SHACL and ShEx work on very similar logical principles, such as description logic https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31890041 but avoid these pitfalls.

But only strong and well-trained people can use bows effectively. In other words, it's a world where the strong are in control.

Ligatures are great if done right. E.g. the set in Fira Code gives me a 2 character wide ≠ instead of != so it retains the monospace widths.
Ellison also shared the coin flip story on the stand, something like "heads the world is twice as good, tails the world is destroyed."
Please make all the digit glyphs the same width. It’s so retarded to see a (eg.) percent complete message jump around horizontally because it went from 11 to 12. I swear it’s a recent phenomena too… bar humbug.
I agree with you. Looking for the right word is missing the point and to me feels like overanalysing instead of understanding. I've only worked in one manager position but I noticed that different people liked different styles - some want to understand why we're doing something and figure out the best way to do it themselves, as it gives them agency and confidence in their abilities - others felt overwhelmed and wanted a more direct approach (do this, in this specific way, in this amount of time) and didn't care what the reason was.

If your staff knows your character and that you will stand up for them and back their needs in the work place, the phrasing is secondary. The most important thing for me is to see the individual before directing them, and that takes time, empathy but also for them to see that I'm worthy of listening to (the criteria differ here).
Now they just need to define AI. Because we already have weapons that can be given a picture of a target and a search area. It will then look for its target and find it.
I try to handle this by not being too invested. If the poster hasn't mentioned anything other than "help me," then I point them at resources to learn with a suggestion of where to start.

If they say "I did X Y and Z but I have problem W" then I try to provide more directed, actionable assistance, or at least explain how to debug the problem.

That at least keeps me feeling like I'm being helpful, but not wasting my time.
Variadic generics, again

Merge conflicts are often much harder to resolve than rebase conflicts. I often find myself going through individual commits in order to understand how to resolve such conflict anyway, which rebase does for me automatically (especially with diff3), providing enough context right away. In many cases, it's much simpler to follow the changes step-by-step.

Sometimes I even ended up resolving merge conflicts by rebasing and then rewinding back and committing the resulting state as a merge. It was easier that way.

Sure, there are cases where rebasing naively gets super annoying as each commit conflicts on cherry picking, but you can end up with pretty nightmarish merges just as well if you're not careful.
May be their system is configured to auto refund when it’s received. So they “hacked” the process so that it doesn’t show received up until they complete inspection.
