So I've been wondering lately it seems there is a lot of effort going into making sure people can't generate NSFW images, but I wonder if a lot of this outrage isn't from the tech side (they tend to be fairly open about that stuff) but rather if it is coming from the adult entertainment industry, as this kind of thing literally destroys their entire business model.

The mention of one-time passcodes seems odd. Those need to be unguessable, but don't need to be unique. If you supply a suitable random source, then I suppose it works, but the "padded with junk" feature makes these look more complex than they really are.

The standard choice of 4 to 8 random digits works well and it's clear what level of security they provide. Digits are easier to understand than case sensitive latin characters, especially when your native language uses a different character set.

Ask HN: Article on software only increasing complexity?
Few years ago a link to article was posted on HN. The idea in the article was that software can only ever increase complexity of things it does manage, not reduce it. The idea was proven using the example of (possibly) the Australian tax system which got way more complicated since they moved from books to a digital system. Does anyone have a link saved somewhere? I drastically need this article.

Thanks!
The SEC's public mission also includes maintaining fair, orderly, and efficient markets, and facilitating capital formation. Both would be well served by an explanation as to how the SEC distinguishes between security tokens and non-security tokens.

>Hispanic people have always been a large portion of California.

Not true.

Whether Texas or California, the land that is now the American southwest was almost completely empty before the Mexican War; about 80,000 hispanos, or about 1% of Mexico's prewar population, mostly in New Mexico and southern Colorado. They were very, very isolated, living in "islands", and were already dependent on the US, not Mexico, for trade <http://web.archive.org/web/20070517113110/http://www.pbs.org...>. The American takeover and attendant influx of settlers completely changed the region; by 1860 California alone had 380,000 people] <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_California#Pop...> and was a US state.

*85% of Mexican Americans today are from post-World War II immigration.* As late as 1970 <http://www.pewhispanic.org/2013/05/01/a-demographic-portrait...> there were five million people of Mexican ethnicity in the US, including one million born in Mexico. Now there are 33.7 million and 11.4 million, respectively. The number of people of Mexican ethnicity has grown by ~16X in 75 years (from ~2 million in 1940), while the US population has grown by ~2.5X. Had the Mexican-ethnic population grown by the same rate as the broader US there would be 5 million today, not 33.7.

History, even recent history, has been rewritten in peoples' minds by popular culture. Los Angeles's stupendous growth in the first half of the 20th century was driven almost entirely off of internal US migration. So many Iowans moved to LA that it was joked that southern California should be renamed "Caliowa". Almost everything we think of about the city, demographically speaking, is a post-1970 phenomenon.

According to Census estimates <http://web.archive.org/web/20080912052919/https://www.census...>, the city of Los Angeles was 7.1% Hispanic (almost all Mexican, of course) in 1940, and 15-17% in 1970. In 1990—let me repeat, two decades later—it was 39.9%. The non-Hispanic white population went from 86.3% in 1940, to 61-63% in 1970, to 37.3% in 1990. As of 2020 <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Los_Angeles#Race_and_ethnicity> the city is 46.9% Hispanic and 28.9% non-Hispanic white.

"We didn't cross the border; the border crossed us" is only true for the aforementioned hispanos. If alien space bats had rotated the contiguous US 180 degrees in 1945, all other Mexican Americans would be living in Buffalo and Portland and Boston and Rochester and Detroit. Those cities would be known as the home of Cal-Mex and Tex-Mex cuisine, not LA and El Paso and Phoenix.
For me bash is a weird exception to the rule "code is easier to write than it is read". I'm never doing anything crazy in a shell a script but it's easy to just ask ChatGPT to whip it up for me and I will read it to verify. Perhaps anybody who can't validate the output is just as likely to write an accidentally-destructive script the old fashioned way.

What's funny is that's it's not about "Korean smartphones", it's about "smartphones on Korea". A friend of mine bought an iphone in France, and when she went to visit Korea, it started doing the shutter sound. It's just purely based on the localization! Same applies if a Korean moves abroad, I assume.

It starts here where Christiano says that an AI takeover might follow the dynamics of a coup: https://youtu.be/GyFkWb903aU?si=78_U-du3kLjmwNcl&t=2206

And goes into more detail here: https://youtu.be/GyFkWb903aU?si=78_U-du3kLjmwNcl&t=2830

"Suppose that I've been tasked with helping defend you from some other AIs.... My job is, someone is coming to hack your computer and I'm supposed to help defend you. Supposed to help improve your security situation, whatever. And I'm wondering, what is it I could do that will get me a high reward. And one thing I could do that will get me a high reward is actually helping defend your computer, doing the task you actually asked me to do. But another way I can get a high reward is by saying at the end of the day what actually matters is just how you measure my performance. And your measurements of my performance ultimately are just entering some numbers into a dataset somewhere, something a computer says about how well I did. And it would really be much better if I were to just work with this AI who is attempting to attack you and say hey, AI who is invading, you know what, if you just help me, and we both make it look like I did a really good job, like I win, you win because you got the person's stuff; I'm going to get a really high rating because all the numbers that are going to be entered in the dataset are going to be really high, this is a win-win, everyone is happy."

"In some sense what all the AIs want, what every AI in the world in this scenario wants is just to be rated really highly. And while humans are in control, the way to get your behavior to be rated really highly is to do things humans like, and then they'll rate it really highly. But if you can see this prospect, of humans losing control of the situation and instead AIs controlling the situation, you'd be like 'I would go for that.'"
If you're seeking weirdness and hallucinatory craziness, I think Peter Watts, Tamsyn Muir, and Charles Stross (among many others) can absolutely deliver.
There's "morally OK", and then there's "love your neighbor". If a road is used to traffic an ambulance saving a life and also a kidnapper, the hands-off road builder is "morally OK". But, in the world we really want to live in, if the road builder has some reasonable means to disallow road usage for kidnappers (excuse the hypothetical), they, in love of the victim, should.
Cases in the traditional "desktop" flat style have vertical GPU mounts for free. It's interesting that there's very little activity in that sector now, for fullsize motherboard support, especially since we've decided we no longer need to design a case around drive bays.

I do think the PCI-E to M.2 migration is getting a bit silly. My current mainboard has six M.2 slots, with four different levels of feature support (one intended for the preinstalled Wi-fi, one that can be SATA or PCI-E 3.0 x2, three PCI-e 4.0,4 one 5.0x4) Yet, if I said "I want a SCSI or SAS card", no dice, because there's only two x1 slots, and most cards seem to be x4.

The four-slot GPU problem might be more manageable if GPUs with AIO liquid coolerss included became more of a norm. That would at least let you move the majority of the bulk of the cooler away from the slot area. But usually this is reserved for ultra-expensive enthusiast cards.
Using the demo in https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/MouseEvent/... it seems Firefox pretends the window is always at (0,0). So that's nice.
Agree on KYC (which has been done by most "legit" exchanges forever), but not on securities. Sure, most ICOs are securities, but the rules are pretty vague and there's a broad spectrum of tokens out there. Gensler still won't answer whether or not he considers Ether a security.

It's like if the DEA announced drug dealing was illegal but refused to provide specific guidance on whether Marijuana, Alcohol, or other substances were considered illegal drugs.
> Lets assume the ammunition for the warthog costs $1 each.

Except they don't don't $1 each. They cost $136 : https://www.quora.com/How-much-does-a-30mm-GAU-8-round-cost

That's not counting wear on the gun.

And if flying low to strafe results in even one additional loss, all those savings are even more than offset.

But more importantly, this whole comparison is moot because for every hour flying a combat mission, a pilot is flying many more hours in training.
Use the external mounts on the F-35 and it loses its low radar profile that you seem to think is important for CAS.

By the way, MANPAADs are pricy in comparison to bullets.

They are comparable to the precision guided munitions in cost. That makes sense considering that they are precision guided munitions.

I quite literally do not know how to interpret your point about Japan and India because your claims are literally not true.

Even if Japan were 100% US aircraft it wouldn’t obviously be indicative of your broader point given Japan’s unique post-war restrictions on its military (enforced by the US).

> Regular rounds fired by the GAU 8 also known as PGU-14/B Armour Piercing Incendiary Depleted Uranium Rounds comes at a hefty price of 136.70 dollars a pop.

While those are pricy, the military does not fire those from the A-10 anymore:

> Armor-piercing incendiary rounds “go through soft targets very cleanly and don’t do much damage unless they hit a critical component,” said the former A-10 pilot. “The type of targets in Iraq and Afghanistan did not warrant using API.”

https://taskandpurpose.com/news/a-10-warthog-armor-piercing-...

Non-incendiary rounds are much cheaper. I cannot find an exact price on it, but I imagine that they are negligible in comparison to fuel.
The original answer must have been, beats CVS handsomely.
Did you read the guide I linked to above? From its first paragraph:

> In this guidance, we provide a framework for analyzing whether a digital asset has the characteristics of one particular type of security – an "investment contract."[4] Both the Commission and the federal courts frequently use the "investment contract" analysis to determine whether unique or novel instruments or arrangements, such as digital assets, are securities subject to the federal securities laws.
It's extra amusing (read: horrifying) how moralists use children to manipulate people and bypass their sense of reason to go straight for the monkeybrain.

It was. Around the time this came out, something like half of the new ML papers were about reinforcement learning. The problem is that it’s incredibly slow and inefficient compared to any learning where you have access to a gradient and can use that to choose more targeted weight updates.

But there are certain applications where it’s the only good way of doing it (for example in games, where you don’t have access to a gradient over the space of how good a certain move is given the current game state, and it’s relatively quick and and efficient to simulate the evolution of the game).

In one sense, but scarcity does not equate value. Many things can be currency, but those with no inherent value, regardless of scarcity, when used as currency are fiat currency, literally valued only because we say so. Paper is a commodity, paper money is not. Oranges are a commodity, but are not a currency or particularly scarce. Computer bits are not scarce at all, and literally billions of copies of any bitcoin could be made, but it has no value that way, only if we all agree that the only person who owns a bitcoin is Jim over there. What's the difference between a bitcoin and a dogecoin? Virtually none, except people say bitcoin has a value.

Great point. The distinction between equality and equity is an important one, with the canonical image for it for me being the one with the fence*. Where inequality today looks like billionaires throwing parties and doing drugs on their own private island at one end, and people living in tents and going hungry, also doing drugs, but with no hope at the other end, it's not the inequality itself that's the problem, it's that the lowest end of the spectrum is so utterly bleak that people have to steal and commit crimes to survive that's the problem.
