China is currently subsidizing electric cars pretty heavily and lithium-ion batteries are dropping in costs pretty dramatically over there.

Also with current tax-rebates you can get a chevy bolt for like ~20k. Which is a lot less than such cars used to be with that kind of range.

Prices might have gone up recently but if we compare EV prices from 5 years ago you are getting dramatically more for the money now.

A UBI will always be detrimental to the overall economic system. Any additional money in the system, such as the massive amount of quantitative easing done during the pandemic, will cause inflation in the market. A UBI will also be erased by the market responding to an increase in the available money in the system. Why shouldn't a car dealer increase its price by however much the UBI is? Why would any business leave money on the table? Any mandated extra income to people will be negated by an increase in things like rent, commodities, cars, everything.

A UBI is nothing more than a wealth transfer that has no long term viability, just as a political football. Who doesn't want free money? Vote for me and I'll make sure you get free money.

Thanks, did not know it was possible.
Took me a while to understand, so to make it explicit for anyone else:

Arnaud and Arno sound the same! (in this language pair.) In Dutch, I know both an Arnaud and an Arno, and it's pronounced correctly^W like you read it (IPA: /ɑrnʌud/ and /ɑrnoː/) so that threw me off probably.

Anyway, your request is a bunch of human labeling work if there isn't already IPA conversions for every name (and if LLM can't already guess correctly 95% of the time and that's good enough for an initial comparison), but from an algorithmic standpoint shouldn't be hard: use the same comparison but on phonetic spellings of the names rather than language-specific spellings. Example: in Dutch, we pronounce "u" like IPA /y/, whereas German pronounces it as /ü/, so any name with "u" in it will automatically be incompatible pronunciation-wise.

Some people, given $1000 a month, would move to locations where rent is less than $1000.

Note this project involves moving containers over land. So it might be faster (& cheaper?) than passing through the Panama Canal. Buuuttt...

It does mean unloading ship A and (after railway or road journey) loading 'em back onto ship B.

Unloading + loading + change of ship. Versus passing with entire ship through canal.

Maybe shipping companies would be fine with this. I don't know, I'm not in that business. But Mexico would need to make sure that those (un)load actions don't become bottlenecks themselves. Or the connecting road/railway.

Anyway: interesting development!
"Nobody is stopping you from contributing" is such a classic deflection. I don't know why people still rely on this old copy-pasta. First of all, who says I want to contribute? Maybe I'm perfectly happy using Photoshop. Is my opinion invalidated simply because I'm not a GIMP user? That's illogical. Secondly, actually, a lot of people would stop me from contributing. I just made the case that only a full rewrite would fix this situation. Do you think that the GIMP maintainers are going to be happy if I drop a full rewrite on them? Or do you disagree that only a full rewrite can fix GIMP? Make some claim, don't just fall back on your list of FOSS fanboy deflections.

>> Everything would be priced at the highest possible price that you'd still pay.

>That is almost always the case anyway. Things are priced at the point that one would pay.

No... not at all. When you need to fly home for a funeral of a close friend, suddenly plane tickets cost $10,000 for you and only you. Your neighbor could get the same flight for $200, but would not be allowed to transfer the ticket to you, because, well, them's the rules in a no-consumer-surplus world.

The vast, vast, vast majority of the time, most people are paying far less than the would pay for things if the companies they bought them from could use dynamic pricing. This is what the consumer surplus is, and is why markets generally worth for both consumer and seller.

Something similar happened to me once. You need a valid CPF number (something like a ssn) to create an account on most webshops in Brazil, so fraudsters will use stolen ones. They then proceed to purchase stuff with stolen CCs

Just remember this is C908, a small core meant for microcontrollers. This is a very small, power optimized vector unit.

Very interesting regardless, because it has already shipped and will enable developers to start working on optimized Vector 1.0 code on real hardware.

In 2024, hardware targeting very high performance arrives, and they implement RVA22+V, while some do a few newer extensions from RVA23.

It is going to be fun.

You can check any credit card issued on your name in Banco Central’s Registrato page[0]. Credit card, loans, etc.

However, HIGHLY unlikely they issue a card in your name and purchase stuff in your name online. If they have a card with them, they’ll go to physical stores and leave with the product with them immediately.

Typically (as I said above) they have purchased a stolen CC number online and are using it until it gets blocked or run out of balance/limit.

In any case, there’s zero fallout for you, the victim. These retailers are used to this (0,5% of transactions turn into fraud), so they’ll eventually figure out it’s fraud and they know it wasn’t you. They know you’re a victim too.

Kalibr and Kinzhal. Designed and manufactured after the Patriots that shot them down were put into long-term storage. (I don’t think S-400s, either which Moscow sells for half a billion dollars to apparently chumps, were meant to be taken out by decades-old Patriots. )

For reasons ranging from corruption to skills degradation, Russia simply isn’t technologically capable of producing advanced weapons anymore. (They are capable of making the marketing.)

After reading Gwern's writings on nicotine some years back, I did a bit of research myself. I can't recall where I read this, but I did come across some anecdotal datum about a person using nicotine to help them workout.

However, that person was quite strict about their usage. He or she would only using nicotine when working out but never any other time. The reasoning was that nicotine helps in habit formation while active in one's system. So, hopefully the brain would crave working out because it would associate the reward of nicotine with working out.

I do not know how it turned out, but I thought that was an interesting idea. What if nicotine could be used to aid in forming healthy habits, and once the habits are established, nicotine could be weened out?

Do you think nicotine has any kind of similar effects for you?
I don't agree. You should be collecting data, running experiments and A/B tests and finetuning your own models, but you shouldn't be building CRUD apps to automate this yourself, even if you have two decades of experience doing so. You shouldn't be building out this stuff yourself, unless you are a massive business that can afford to, or it's the core of your business.

Wayland has been flawless for me, but for others not so much.

Every thread about wayland has people claiming it's broken yet they aren't reporting bugs or providing useful information at all, just vague complaints.

Many people experience no issues with wayland, and some people do experience issues, but without any information nothing can be done to even attempt to fix things. It's possible in many cases that something is misconfigured, or a known issue that has been fixed in newer releases of whatever you are using, or a genuine bug that hasn't yet been discovered. Nobody will ever know though.
First, all claims about moral or ethical stances are subjective. So, too, the appropriate punishment. We have no accepted theory of consciousness and more scientists than ever have aligned with the idea that free will is something we experience, but not something that exists the way we think it does. But until we make some scientific breakthrough, all of these ideas are ultimately in the philosophical realm, which is why we need to reexamine them regularly.

Over the course of history, we’ve held deeply flawed beliefs as societies that all “got us $this far”. The reasons we’ve kept evolving/progressing is that we’ve changed our models of understanding when new data indicates it’s necessary. Humans stopped sacrificing children. We stopped believing in the geocentric theory. For the most part, we stopped accepting slavery. We don’t carry out a myriad of bizarre ritual based on the color of people’s hair, etc.

Many modern institutions are associated with religion because religion was pervasive during their inception. But there is no reason to cling to faith-based beliefs just to preserve the underlying principles and human wisdom that still have utility. And when the religious dogma we’re talking about is one that involves how and when we remove the most sacred of all human rights - how we imprison other humans, we better be adjusting our views to match our current understanding of the world.

And bringing up specific cities with lax policies is unrelated. A system can have teeth and enforce its laws while treating offenders as humans and avoiding punitive behaviors that are inappropriate. The issues are orthogonal.

> Incarceration works. Retribution within the confines of the law works…All I care about are outcomes.

This depends highly on your definition of “works”, and what outcomes you hope the system achieves.

The primary reason we lock people up is to protect society from people who act in ways that are considered unacceptable. This has downstream effects: deterrence and a sense of justice. But fundamentally, the point is to reduce the crimes committed to begin with, and to prevent known offenders from continuing to break the law.

There is plenty of evidence that the current system in the US creates criminal behavior on top of whatever issues it solves, and if we’re primarily focused on outcomes, not feeding the system seems just as important as trying to make sure the people who are there are less likely to end up back in.
I don't deny that, my claim is more of "what counts as 'primitive conditions'?"
> The status quo is unacceptable, so let's see what you got.

Please don't be snarky or have attitude like that.

Anyways, if you'd like to know, the specific Infinity Train example (as well as Westworld etc.) have to do with a very specific write-off opportunity that occurs in a limited time frame when a corporate merger occurs -- in this case, HBO with Discovery. I'm not familiar with the specifics, but if you want to fix something, I'd suggest looking at this particular merger tax write-off loophole (?).

It would seem to be a result/problem of that very specific accounting move in merger situations only. It's not a problem with write-offs in general.
> The kernel side interface probably won't change because apparently legitimate apps have been allocating fd_sets on the heap to monitor fds > 1024 and they don't want to break those

Rightly so. Before libev, AIO or whatever where a thing, I used to run network servers 10 or 15 years or so ago with a redefined __FD_SETSIZE set to 16384 without any problems on Linux (plus appropriate proc and ulimit settings). The whole stack properly supported it, even if not officially supported.

The real problem nowadays is, people can easily receive a fd >= 1024 as you do not control them, and then put them into fd sets only supporting values up to 1023 and then you have a security problem. Plus of course, the later APIs also simply scale better beyond 16k connections.

Anonymization of personal data is a very tricky thing. It is so tricky that the GDPR even doesn't really mention it. I even don't know of any official SOP for doing it.

Of course k-anonymity and differential privacy can help you with a closed data set, but once you add records to a dataset over time everything breaks down.

I once tried to find a way to anonymize data on different clients and then connect the records of the same entity on the server. This method had the main problem that one could artificially generate a new non-identifying data point for an individual and then see in which record it will end up in the central data base.

> The longstanding expectation in the trades (at least in the US) is that training/apprenticeships ought to be free or even paid, even when it calls for a major time investment on the part of the instructor. Perhaps that practice needs an update.

The trades are already suffering from a lack of applicants because most people will choose an office job over something where you gotta work no matter what weather it's outside and it's physically demanding on top of that. Gatekeeping applications will make that only worse.

> ... there is almost nothing more satisfying than having an unidentified song stuck in your head and then after hours/days/years figuring out what it is

I had a song in my head and I'd whistle it at parties / dinners etc. for years before someone was able to tell me what it was.

The person couldn't tell me the name but told me something like: "It's a very old folkloric song but I don't know it's name". And with that description and, well, the nascent Youtube I've been able to find its name (not even sure that was even Google back then).

But what's funny: everybody knew it when I'd whistle it. Everybody had heard it, but nobody could tell me what it was.

Turns out it was "Greensleeves" which is really famous. Wikipedia link which has a link to the tune:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greensleeves

Besides that anecdote last one I had in my head and couldn't tell, but which I found after a few hours, was this one:

https://youtu.be/nLT1-5laF0A

When I've got one and can't tell, I record me whistling it and sent it to friends/family and asks who knows what it is.

Nicotine has antifungal and antimicrobial attributes. I have even seen studies claiming smokers were less likely to get serious covid infections likely due to some property of nicotine.

Native Americans treated tobacco as a sacred plant and praised it for all sorts of health and spiritual properties. That makes me think the plant and its consumption is probably a net benefit and it may be the way commercial cigarettes and tobacco are processed that cause the problems.
> Poor people do not think money fix sadness lol.

I've been poor for a long time. Trust me, daydreaming about money fixing all the problems is one of the biggest if not the biggest time killer/entertainment.

What I noticed climbing the ladder is that some people are happy and some people are sad independently of the income. And if much it seems that I met happier people in general when I was poor than now. I was happy in my poorest time and I'm still happy, which helps me see through it without the constraints of money.
That is an amazing collection. Many of them have been refurbished and fixed. I don't think the prices are that high. There are many unique pieces, and compared to the price of other things out there, prices ok. There is some solid stuff, with real build quality.

This is so scary to me. We all ride in cars or busses with tires and the pressure and power of even an average tire is incredible. I'm a little surprised the tweel concept never took off or other alternatives. Tires are dangerous and fragile and if possible would be great to replace.
Many red-teaming attacks don't rely on the identifiers at all, they are essentially "duck typing" the entities in the data model. Same approach is commonly used for dealing with data where a single identity may have multiple pseudonymized identifiers.

> The problem is, most houses aren’t wired to handle the load from electric heating, cooking, and clothes dryers, along with solar panels and vehicle chargers

I'm not so sure. 80% of US homes have a clothes dryer [1], and about 80% of clothes dryers are electric [2][3][4].

The average American drives 40 miles per day, which takes about 10 kWh of electricity, which is about the same amount of electricity as two loads in a typical electric clothes dryer.

It is very common for the laundry room to be next to the garage (or for the garage to be the laundry room). So put your EV charger on the same circuit as the dryer. Then as long as you don't need to charge the EV at the same time you are running the dryer as far as your house wiring is concerned it is like you are running an extra two loads of clothes through the dryer every day.

I'd expect this also wouldn't be a problem for the existing electrical grid, because even though it is increasing how much total electricity that the house uses its at night when the load on the grid is low.

It may take a lot more electricians (and a lot of grid upgrades) to get everything off fossil fuels, but it seems plausible that we can get a large percentage of people who have houses where they can charge overnight off ICE cars without much upgrades.
