No such thing as a "good gang" man.

Only more targets.

Gangs are horrible entities that have to be stamped out via swift decisive action. Take it from us in the US. The whole reason we have to deal with the half of the politicos who shoot up walmarts, and the half of politicos who loot walmarts is because too many politicos protect their pet gangs and terrorists.

Don't let this happen to you.

Now in the US we have to take out our shooters and looters while their protectors maneuver to make that difficult from on high. I'm pretty sure you'll see a lot more prosecutions of politicos like you're seeing with Trump. It's basically step one if you want to take back malls, walmarts and churches from the shooters and the looters. You'll end up having to take down a lot of politicos and then bring the hammer.

That's never pleasant.
For some time I'm thinking about cancelling my Netflix subscription. It is very bad that they are doing massively their own production if you want my opinion.

My feeling is that there is very few recent Hollywood movies that are released but a massive amount of "Netflix produced" crappy series and movies. Most of them are boring or copycat of stories that are done a thousand times.

I think that their content is now almost totally targeted at binge watching any random content.

Following the Google path. "Data shows that this product isn't meeting usage expectations, time to kill it." Except in the process they don't realize that their actions (cutting products/shows) is training people not to invest in subsequent products in the first place for fear they'll disappear one day. They're basically tainting all of their future data collection. If Products A and B (or shows in Netflix's case) were ones I heavily used then were unceremoniously canned, I'm not going to want to try Product C, regardless of how good it is.
If one believes the cringeworthy, gag-inducing story told by Silicon Valley VC, SBF started Alameda with 50K of his own (or perhaps his donors' or his parents') money.

Alameda was a Limited Liability Corporation (LLC) registered in Delaware in 2017.

Not sure what is meant by "concessions from the government".

It is a 3rd world pattern: countries with weak and ineffective institutions turn politics into a personality cult where authoritarian charismatic saviours with lunatic ideas are preferred to sensible and pragmatic policies.

You know these types: Jair Bolsonaro, Sivio Berlusconi, V. Orbán, R. Duterte, Hugo Chávez, Nayib Bukele, Daniel Ortega, Narendra Modi and ... yeah, the most famous one. I don't need to mention him.

Funny thing is that Argentina already experienced some of Milei's ideas before, under Menem, with disastrous results.

Well, Massa is 44%. In the Argentinian current culture there were different values that people think about. For example, the corruption of the current government is incredible yet for some people it does not matter.
It is hard to negotiate when the investors and for-profit part basically has much more power. They tried to bring them in front of a fait accompli situation, as this was their only chance, but they seem to have failed. I do not think they had a better move in the current situation right now, sadly.
This follows quickly on the heels of the Matrix Foundation giving up on developing and saying everyone should use the software developed by Riot.im/Element.io corporation.
That's fair. Although it's partially (mostly?) offset by the preferred solution here of using Uber, which produces tons of extra CO2 from cars idling/driving around waiting for a fare and driving without a passenger to pick you up.

I'm not saying getting rid of these second vehicles is bad, it's great, but Uber's specific focus on rarely-used vehicles only makes sense because they want to make money. Any independent observer concerned about CO2 or pollution or traffic or road safety would want to incentivize getting rid of cars in general, and put more effort towards frequently-used cars.

OpenAI is the hottest of the hot, there’s no shortage of talented people who want to work there. The people who decide this is why they want to leave are probably the ones least aligned to OpenAI’s mission.

The same goes for the Azure credits. If MS decides they want out then other big tech companies will be lining up to take their place. This makes Microsoft’s threats rather hollow.
I believe the title refers to the linked article [1]—which claims it topped the platform's charts—rather than the quoted tweet.

I think "tether" was used as a verb here; not to refer to the dodgy asset named after said verb.
> How is that going to improve the situation in Argentina? I'm not sure slashing public education and healthcare is good for the country. People are extremely poor, what are they going to do when they can no longer afford medical care, just die?

It's not clear that Argentina can afford the kind of social services you're talking about. Liberalization will be painful but then things will get better.

If all goes well, perhaps in the future we'll be able to compare this transition to Chile under Pinochet, minus a bloody coup and associated political repression. Or maybe Milei will drop the ball.
Their current model allows for hypercapitalism with constraints and has been successful. They still raised billions. Remains to be confirmed what happened behind the scenes, but it possible Sam wasn't honest with these dealings. The correct way to have gone about this was to setup that hardware co under the the same umbrella as OpenAI co. Sam is playing 3d chess here and the board has to fold or make their play, even if their hand isn't great.
I wonder if networks are comfortable with open-ended series because it lets them switch to targeting a more profitable demographic as the show runs.

For example, Lost began with no particular arc planned out, just some stabs here and there at continuity. That allowed writers in season three to heavily emphasize a love triangle among the three most romantic characters (Kate, Jack and Sawyer) which won the show a huge following from women in a key US advertising demographic, even as some male nerds were disappointed.
Welcome to modern journalism, where a journalist can take a tweet from any rando (of which there are many millions) to make their preconceived point and present it as some sort of consensus.
You are still goal-oriented. If you are hungry, you go look for food then consume said food if you find any. If you are bored, you look for entertainment - e.g. calling one of your friends (who isn’t a complete bore). It doesn’t have to involve complex reasoning.
Something tells me that it was Ilya who got jealous/resentful of Sam's oversized role and decided he had to be cut down to size.
There was a TV show called Person of Interest that (irrc) had a limitation that it had all its data deleted every night to prevent self awareness.

Not to spoil anything but a large part of the plot was how it circumvented that using a method not entirely unlike this. Life imitates art imitates life I guess.

I agree about the part where it's a static model - it's effectively the same as using a notebook without memorising what's in the notebook. That doesnt mean it can't generate insightful commentary as a result of a novel way of interacting with itself though, I think?
Trump is a populist in a first world country so charismatic saviours exist beyond the third world. Italy is also a first world country by definition.
They really should have uploaded the models on Huggingface than Gdrive.
It reminds me of this thing I saw recently where network TV shows will include blurbs in ads for the show, like "RIVETING!", "CAN'T TURN AWAY...", etc., and the expectation of course is that it's Peter Travers or whoever the hell that wrote the blurb.

Except they were just handles like "@BeckFire49" from random people on Twitter.

I was surprised the blog post did not mention Modes of Persuasion, which were codified in 4th century BCE by Aristotle.

Pathos: appeal to emotion

It’s especially bad because they are so quick to cancel things that they’re skewing their data to what shut-ins like to binge. If you have kids, a social life, etc. it’s pretty common for something to go from “oh, cool, I should try that after I finish my current show” to canceled.
It's already answered in the FAQ: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsfaq.html. The stories are flagged because users are flagging them.

FWIW, I agree with those users. HN is supposed to be for intellectual curiosity (https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html, https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&sor...). This is not a subject that can be discussed in that spirit on a large public forum. It will only turn into a conflict between people with different feelings about such stories in general and/or the $celebrity whose name makes the story significant. Would any of us want our most painful family conflicts argued about like that, by angry strangers who actually know nothing about it?
> Sure, it all seems to work for now... and then a customer signs up from Tuvalu, and performs a billable action at 11:59PM on the last day of the month, and your whole billing system falls over because they now have a split invoice generated for next month while it's still this month.

Yeah, so the compiler should issue a warning and the user can decide how to proceed. If the user ignores the warning for code that is part of their company's billing system, that's on them. Computers should provide information, but ultimately leave the humans in charge.

> The problem, of course, is that most programming languages don't have a concept of "pinning the allowed runtime version like any other dependency"; or of the runtime exposing an ABI version that increases for every breaking change.

That's an equally fine way to handle things IMO, but the language would need to support each runtime version more-or-less indefinitely. It also still doesn't solve your problem with the customer in Tuvalu (which I think is fine, just pointing it out).
I'm not trying to throw undeserved shade, but why do we think this is something as complex as that and not just plain incompetence? Especially given the cloak and daggers firing without consulting or notifying any of their partners beforehand. That's just immaturity.
this is a stunt, but Uber is lobbying with policy recommendations, that're more interesting than the stunt:

> Uber’s recommendations to “unlock the Big Move”

> Price access to city-centre roads to encourage behaviour change through parking charges, road tolling, congestion charges and clean-air zones.

> Unabashedly focus all government policy areas on securing the future well-being of people over a very long time scale. “In practical terms, the current system will prioritise spending on a road upgrade yielding a 2-minute travel-time improvement compared to a rail project that will future-proof a new community with a sustainable, car-free travel option.”

> Reform health and net-zero policies to encourage more active lives and reduce emissions through devising and promoting travel behaviour change initiatives delivered in partnership with industry, communities and the third sector.

I would be happy to see more focus on walkable neighborhoods, more public transport & less reliance on private car ownership in Australian cities. Less sprawling new-build suburbs with no infrastructure nearby & long commutes for economic opportunity, more zoning flexibility & mixed residential/commercial stuff, more high density, less land devoted to roads & parking. I'm not a fan of Uber, interesting to see there's a bit of overlap in what they're lobbying for (to grow their market share) & what I think might benefit the country.
I feel that people have a right to life and liberty, but liberty does not mean access to god-like powers.

There are many people that would do great things with god-like powers, but more than enough that would be terrible.

Looks fine to me, man. I asked chatGPT to summarize this (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mozilla_Corporation) in the context of your question

Mozilla Corporation's Experience

*Challenges and Adaptation:* Mozilla Corporation has faced financial challenges, leading to restructuring and strategic shifts. This includes layoffs, closing offices, and diversifying into new ventures, such as acquiring Fakespot in 2023

*Dependence on Key Partnerships:* Its heavy reliance on partnerships like the one with Google for revenue has been both a strength and a vulnerability, necessitating adaptations to changing market conditions and partner strategies

*Evolution and Resilience:* Despite challenges, Mozilla Corporation has shown resilience, adapting to market changes and evolving its strategies to sustain its mission, demonstrating the effectiveness of its governance model within the context of its organizational goals and the broader technology ecosystem

In conclusion, while both OpenAI and Mozilla Corporation have navigated unique paths within the tech sector, their distinct governance structures illustrate different approaches to balancing mission-driven goals with operational sustainability and market responsiveness.

This is all I can find about his views on same-sex marriage. It seems to contradict what you're saying. He says he doesn't care.

“Si vos querés estar con un elefante... Si tenés el consentimiento del elefante, es tu problema y del elefante. No me opongo a que dos personas del mismo sexo se casen”, remarcó. Y sumó: “Para mí, el matrimonio es un contrato. Puede ser de dos partes, tres partes o 50 si uno quiere”.

My translation:

"If you want to be with an elephant... If you have the elephant's consent, it's your problem and the elephant's. I'm not opposed to two people of the same sex marrying," he remarked. And, he added, "For me, marriage is a contract. It can be between two parties, three parties, or fifty if one wants."

Edit: Another quote from the article:

“Es un contrato entre partes. ¿Qué tengo que opinar yo? Vos casate con quien quieras. El liberalismo es el respeto irrestricto del proyecto de vida del prójimo basado en el principio de no agresión y en defensa del derecho a la vida, la libertad y la propiedad. ¿En qué me agrede a mi que dos personas del mismo sexo se casen? En nada, punto uno afuera. ¿Afecta la vida de alguien? A nadie. ¿En la libertad? A nadie ¿En la propiedad? a nadie”.

It's a contract between parties. What do I think? Marry whoever you want. Liberalism is unconditional respect of the life plan of our fellow man based on the principle of non-aggression and in defense of the right to life, liberty, and property. What harm does it do to me that two people of the same sex marry? Nothing. Does it affect someone's life? No one's. Their libery? No one's. Their property? No one's.

From now to next midterm parliament elections he'll need to play his cards carefully, negotiating with the other right-wing coalition and even then, he'll be short of some votes. Also the left is going to set the streets on fire.

But if he can show some progress in these first two years...
If you are hungry you go find food and eat it. If you are bored you go find something fun to do. Most of our actions, if not all, are to satisfy one need or another. Satisfying that need is the goal.

>I'm not sure that it's scary. After all, casual racism and sexism used to be a lot more common in the past. Now people are called out and criticized on those. Is that bad?

Isn't it scary or least worrying that 40 percent of Americans reported that they did not feel free to speak their minds? Or are you implying they belong to the group who participated in casual racism and sexism that used to be a lot more common in the past and now people (majority of the other 60%) are calling them out and criticize them on those hence concluding not scary and perhaps good?

I find it scary too.

Agreed. Unfortunately those people who leveled accusations will face no consequences. Even if you were to bring up that they wrong, naive, selfish, you'll just get a shrug from them and a "get over it". Like the results and end-game don't matter to them now, when before they swore with their life that it mattered and anyone in opposition was a xenophobic piece of crap.

There is a distinction between ownership and usage. By simple fact of owning a car, I have some $1-2k annual fixed costs (insurance + registration + minor maintenance). Gas scales with the utilization, which is lifestyle dependent.

Some basics (from someone who played the game a bunch a decade ago): There are two resources, metal and energy, neither can "mine out". To build something, you need equal amounts of both, and the thing building can only spend them at a certain rate ("buildpower"). Notably, metal income is effectively proportional to the amount of territory you control, whereas energy generation can be built anywhere. Buildpower is local to factories and builder units. Neither resource needs to be "moved around", it can be spent by builders anywhere.

One important economy management aspect is matching your metal income with at least as much energy income and buildpower so you can actually spend it (excess energy is turned into a bit of extra metal). And then yes, you should spend it, but the factories support queues (including automatic re-queueing), and you can of course shift-queue buildings.

Another important aspect is that dead units leave behind metal scraps. This can boost your metal income substantially (e.g. if a failed enemy attack leads to a bunch of dead units near your base).

In short, balancing metal income (/territory expansion) with energy income and buildpower is the core economy management loop. But because units have pretty capable AI (e.g. auto-kite when applicable), you can devote a lot more of your attention to this aspect, as well as higher-level decision making.
These seem minimally useful in the sense that once one needs to whip out the SIMD intrinsics and software prefetches one probably actually cares about the 30% or 100% speedup one can get by writing cache-aware algorithms instead.

I don’t think so, to be honest. The landscape for media consumption is so much different than 10-15 years ago. Without any supporting data, I have a hunch that, shows are mostly watched within a year of its original air date. New shows aren’t on a rerun (I recall Scrubs, House being on from time to time), they are not turning into a comfort background tv show (like The Office, Friends) or have a religious fanbase that’ll just follow along because there are 20 seasons of it (NCIS, Greys Anatomy and so on.).

On top of everything, media is extremely fragmented. So much choice that there isn’t any specific shows that people watch because everyone else is watching and will talk about it on Monday during lunch (a la Game of Thrones). So all these companies are left with churning new shows trying to find a holy grail of the Stranger Things size to bring them new subscribers. Until then, anything that doesn’t stick on the wall, will get cut off.

We have a huge movie industry scene in my city, so you hear from people who jump from working show A to show B. None of the shows I’ve ever heard of and never will. But producers are still hoping for a genre defining hit somehow.
> a website that helps people find parking

indeed, that's a very biased sample. i've been happily living in a big australian city for over a decade without owning a car or using uber. i spend approximately 0 hours looking for parking per decade. they're never going to find me in the population of parking-seekers that they're surveying.
